In real-life: It was an agreed upon scene involving two actors. Do you hate Nicholas Cage for that part in Wicker Man where he runs around punching women while in a bear suit?

In storyline: A woman willingly agreed to enter a match.

Either is pretty different from a dude beating the poo poo out of his girlfriend.

Anything scripted I have no problem with, because that's the name of the game when it comes to things wrestling. Though, I've been hoping for years we'd end up with a woman becoming world champion.

You do realize that merch sales are a gigantic part of their revenue, right? Not exploiting this would be stupid.

Seriously, it seems like they're under the same rules as most bands. While less people pay for the albums/DVDS and PPVs, live shows and merch are what sell.

Anyway, was about to throw money away on a Punk shirt next paycheck, will probably buy this instead if it's cool.

Wait, I thought Lashley quit the WWE for her and not the other way around?

Lashley left because "creative has nothing for you" when he came back from injury.

The greatest thing Lashley ever did was feud with Simon Dean. I desperately want that feud to be recreated with Ryback so he can eat the platter of burgers rather than ominously glaring at it.

Loser has to eat a dozen burgers. It's a regular Ryback match, but after the Shellshock, Ryback lays down and pulls his opponent over him, then just goes face first into the plate of burgers and starts eating.

But when CM Punk turned heel Cena said "THE ONLY REASON HE HAS HAD THE TITLE FOR SO LONG IS BECAUSE HE DOES ANY SNEAKY TACTIC TO KEEP IT" even though he had been winning clean for months!!!

Wasn't that between Summerslam and Night of Champions? When the closest thing to a "sneaky" tactic was stealing Cena's pin in a triple threat, and earlier in the match they both made Big Show tap out...

It was like they wanted you to hate Cena for being a hypocritical, lying gently caress until CM Punk practically started strangling puppies to get booed over Cena.

If it was a part of something to promote a match or do something wrestling related you would have a point. But the reason people are mad is that if you boil down what he said its basically "Gays can get married that's cool I guess if you agree but gently caress gay people being gay is horrible." Nobody's mad about the violent imagery they're mad he's so angry about homosexuality and is expressing it on such public forum with so much hostility.

The hosed-up part is that by this point, Dixie's probably too powerless now in her own goddamn company to do anything about it if she even wanted to. There's a ton of middle management that wasn't there before, and I'm sure if Bischoff or Prichard or Hogan or whoever wanted to keep someone like Aries around, they'd probably find a way to save his job even if Dixie was demanding he be fired on the spot. :sigh:

Dixie hates women so I'm pretty sure she doesn't give a poo poo anyway.

Of course, if he does get over despite not being on TV, then he will have fallen into the trap.

Lets all remember that "They gotta get themselves over!!!" is practically PR bullshit so they don't have to talk about the real reasons why the writing constantly falls apart.

Man, I don't think I've seen Curt Hawkins since he laughed at Heath Slater during Wrestlemania 28, even as just a jobber.

TNA is really the ideal place to take a rest and heal up after the WWE schedule. You'll get paid, you don't have to perform that often, and 99.9% of the WWE audience has no idea TNA exists, so when you come back they'll think you haven't wrestled in years and be very excited.

Real American hitting during the Royal Rumble would make people flip their poo poo.

Getting thrown out of the ring would break his fake hip.

I have never once heard of him being fired for 'being a Jew', though I absolutely believe that's what Cabana thinks.
We talked about this earlier, but yes casual anti-semitism in WWE is definitely part of the reason he wasn't given a chance.

I swear people look for any excuse to jump on the dude. We're talking about this now because he had the audacity to hype his video using the phrase "Wrestling's Last Real Heel" because people got legitimately violent at him for his act. And now he's being compared to Zack "being bitter at creative is my gimmick" Ryder because he talks about his WWE experience in less-than-positive light? Give me a loving break!
