We recently had a discussion on what exactly bisexuality means in the LGBTQ+ wrestling thread if you want to check it out. I think it was a page or two back.

:) Thanks, I'll have a look, I'm genuinely interested in this stuff as someone who's kind of liminally part of the community. (read cis dude who's realised over the last few years he's not quite as straight as he thought)

This describes me as well. The LGBTQ+ thread has been a nice place to chat about all sorts of stuff, you should definitely check it out if you haven't yet!

Bisexuality has always included genders off the binary. The main difference is bisexuals say they're attracted to people of multiple genders, pansexuals say they're attracted to people regardless of gender and both often get pissed when you say they're the same thing :eng101:

And a story where he'd challenge Vince McMahon to a wrestling fed on a pole match.

So Road Dogg gets let go for various reasons(I think he was A Drug) alongside Ron Killings.

They go to TNA, form 3 Live Kru with Konnan. Shoes are thrown. WWE's catering is raided when WWE does a show in Orlando.

Billy Gunn gets let go from WWE because they suck. Billy does a shoot and rips HHH. 3LK becomes 4LK.

Then Road Dogg and Billy do a shoot together where they talk about how much HHH love sucking dick. I believe they also poo poo on Stephanie.

Then they form The James Gang, making Billy an honorary James. Bullet Bob Armstrong whips a handcuffed Konnan in a cage.

poo poo happens so they form THE VODOO KIN MAFIA, attempt to break into Titan towers and put up million bucks to fight the newly reformed DX.

clarification edit: Billy was rehired a second time to be a trainer at the PC and was let go for failing a drug test at a body building competition.

Wow. I missed the entire TNA/Impact-era from that time period because I checked out from wrestling basically between 2002 and 2019 when AEW showed up on my radar. While I've done some catching up by way of hearing some of the stories and watching Youtube videos, I'd totally not seen any of that. Like, what's Voodoo and Kin even got to do with it? I can kind of see Mafia being a reference to them being upgraded Outlaws but... Big huh.

Voodoo

I believe it’s as simple as that. They wanted something with his initials as it might piss him off. Plus…TNA.

Yeah, I mentioned I got the VKM part in my last post. I just wasn't sure why they picked those specific words. Sounds like they just swigged a lot of Jack and pointed at random words in the dictionary until they got a VKM that sounded half-way cool.

Russo and Cornette are both going to be tweeting passive or outright aggressive bullshit at people who are still relevant hoping they try to hit back so they can make more videos for clicks until the end of time - it doesn't have to be any more complicated than that for an explanation really

Russo thinks the reason wrestling isn’t cool is because the promoters aren’t cool so he’s just attacking Tony for not being cool. Of course Russo’s not cool and he hangs out with the biggest bunch of losers in the business but he’s not exactly know for being self-reflective.

Re: Voodoo Kin Mafia.

I mean, I already know the answer to this, but is Vince so petty and thin skinned that he would get legitimately real life angry over a stable in a different company using the initials of his name?

It's not like they sneezed or anything.

Related question: I don't have an encyclopaedic memory, and it must have happened somewhere and at sometime. But I can't remember anytime there was a televised sneeze on a wrestling show. Either real or pantomimed. Just to annoy said petty thin skinned old man.
