The name of this thread is the only one I can think of for the wrestlers who become parents. Both men and women appear to be affected by it and they all exhibit the same symptoms. Having their own children seems to bring out the worst in them and they're not even aware of their actions. I can list a number of wrestlers who have fallen under this influence and what they've done because of it.
Hulk Hogan: He had two children, aged 5 and 3 at the the time he went back on his word to Bret Hart that he would put him over. He then lied on behalf of Vince Mcmahon, perverting the course of justice.
Mick Foely: His wife was pregnant with their second child and his first was a year old. He starts his hardcore era by asking Vader to pummel his face. Later on, in front of his family, he agrees to let the Rock whack him in the head multiple times with a chair, upsetting both his children and his wife.
Triple H and Stephanie Mcmahon: They had a seven year old daughter, a five year and three year old at home when they staged a storyline in which they acted like criminals onscreen, handcuffing Daniel Bryan and beating him horribly, with Stephanie Mcmahon urging Triple H to drown Daniel Bryan at one point. Let's not forget Stephanie humiliating Goldust or defiling the Big Show in public.
The Danielsons: Brie kicks Liv Morgan in the face, delivers a stiff forearm to Ruby Riot and knees Zelina Vega in the face. Daniel Bryan becomes oblivious to the harm his wife is causing, blindly defending her, in spite of the fact that she's hurt people.
Shane Mcmahon: He has three kids and he smashed a cinder block over the Big Show's head, agreed to be thrown through plate glass, fell off a cage from a great height, a father to three sons.
The Bellas: Betrayal is one thing, but the way it was done was fucked up. I mean, people saw it coming, but what the fuck, man? A forearm to the back of the head, kicks on the floor, pushing her into the ring post and steps from behind? Is backstabbing another symptom of this disease that seems to afflict new parents?
What gets into the wrestlers who have families? What makes them behave this way? Shouldn't they be the opposite?
