Welp I thought after this pipe bomb and threatening to leave I would have a lot of colleagues on my side who have been hosed over but that didn't seem like the case. The whole room was fell into deafening silence, many with confused expressions. I returned to my work and when I finished my manager pulled me aside and said I shouldn't come into work tomorrow while he forwards a case to HR in regards to disciplinary issues.

It looks like I will get fired now boys, but drat it felt good to get it off my chest. I am looking online frantically whether or not termination from my job will negatively affect any future job prospects. Does anyone else have experience with this? Shall I lawyer up?

I doubt any wrestler could be really a sports hero of a town. I would assume most people don't even really know where most wrestlers are from due to gimmick locations.

Ricky Steamboat famously never turned heel. I think he said he would've liked to do a heel run at some point but promoters just didn't want to risk it because he was such a natural babyface.

He said that in his second WWF run, where he was simply called "The Dragon" he went to Patterson and asked if he could turn heel, since he hated the fire breathing gimmick (he said it was impossible to breathe after having a mouthful of gas). Patterson told him that they could send him out there with a chainsaw to cut someone's head off, and the crowd still wouldn't boo him.

Steamboat is, in my opinion anyway, the most pure-blooded babyface there ever was.

Jesus, I hope he wasn't actually using gas. There are a lot of pretty safe odorless/tasteless fuels that fire breathers use, like paraffin. Some just use strong liquor.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.
WWE's telling of TNA's history would just be a dramatic reading by former TNA guys of the LOLTNA page.
