One of the parts of AJ Lee's push was a video WWE had of her as a child meeting Lita and marking out telling her she wants to be her when she grows up and like the journey of her reaching her dream and becoming her idol's peer. Lita once dated CM Punk. AJ Lee married CM Punk. WWE passed this classy "fan" made cartoon around the offices.

Wow... That is a sexual harassment case waiting to happen there. I am amazed that she didn't sue them, that is pretty cut and dry. I am utterly baffled every day that some stupid thing they do doesn't take them down. With Vince losing his mind more and more it almost feels like they are playing Russian Roulette now.

It was another case of someone loving WWE as a kid (and having a passion for the business) being exploited by them when they finally achieve their dream of working there

Someone also posted Mickie James' nudes around the locker room. Also Batista harassed Shelly Martinez into quitting when she wouldn't sleep with him but he was funny as the green space man so we all like and forgive him for it.

Didn't Batista also like cheat on his wife while she was dying of cancer or some heinous poo poo like that?

I'm old enough to remember a time when we were pumped Booker T kicked Batista's rear end for being a creepy douchebag HHH acolyte.

He did but I think he's been taking a lot of steps to come across as a changed person over the years since that. Movie stardom doesn't even factor into that.

Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.
Batista spent most of his WWE career in the Ruthless Aggression locker room, which was when it was still run by notorious pieces of poo poo like JBL and Benoit, and he was buddies with full power trip "Am I loving going over?" era Triple H so I think leaving probably did wonders for him as a person.

I recall Batista and I think Shelley Martinez despised each other, and within like 10 minutes of Batista leaving WWE they started talking and became friends.

Oh, I don't really have an opinion on the guy now. I don't pay much attention to celebrity or wrestling gossip and I just know that everyone loves Batista now for reasons. I don't know what those reasons are so I have no idea how legit they are or not. But people can absolutely change so maybe he did.

I was just saying, its funny thinking back to a time when Batista was widely regarded as an rear end in a top hat and what we'd probably call a "sexpest" these days, compared to how fans view him now. I have no idea if that's because he's really changed or just the way of fans.

They have been able to recruit a ton of people in the last several years due to their childhood dream of working there. It feels like that magic trick might finally be wearing off though. I am really glad people like Punk and Moxley have come out and told their stories of working there and dealing with that company. It goes to show that even the top guys who are getting pushed are unhappy and treated badly.

The other nice thing is both of them said that money isn't the end all be all for them and I would like to believe it isn't for a lot of the better guys in WWE.

The thing is, people sign with WWE when they're young and when you're young you always think the future is wide open and you won't fall into the same traps that others did. There's always been ex-WWE people telling stories like the Moxley podcast I just listened to. There will always be 22-year-old wrestlers whose dreams are to wrestle at Wrestlemania or on Monday Night RAW as long as those are the standard bearers in wrestling and for who WWE money is more money than they've ever seen in their lives.

If that was some false rumor that just stuck with me, my bad. But I definitely remember Batista generally had a reputation for being a sexpest and it factored into stuff like Shelley Martinez leaving, Morrison/Melina, and the Booker T fight. Still, if the "cheating on wife with cancer" thing was fake then that's a big thing for me to be spreading, so I apologize.
