yes but when your rap alienates a demographic n brings you negative attention as a new company you kind of have to care

I doubt you can find a single demographic WWE didn't alienate in 2003-2004. At the exact same time Cena was doing this exact Castor gimmick, JBL was also going to the southern border and beating up Mexicans. It's wrestling. It's meant to be offensive, but no worries, my main point is he shouldn't be fired. That's my only beef here. IF he gets fired, bullshit. If he comes back and can still FREESTYLE his raps to the ring, fine. Like I have no problem with how they handled Sammy now because he came back and he's still getting a good push.

me and @Hoss Delgado went to an SWE show earlier this year where Charlie Haas told an 11 year old that if he didn't shut up he wouldn't see 12

Man, that woulda been awesome when I was a kid, I woulda loved it

 

[Chris]

Yeah the kid got even more in his face after that I'm pretty sure lol

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I understand your pov too smark, for sure

 

[Hidden Blaze]

I use to love going to shows as a kid and the heels be mean to me

Good shit.

Freedom of speech/expression also does not mean a freedom from criticism. You can say something stupid, or do something stupid, but you can face society's consequences

Yeah but at some point you also need to seperate fact from fiction and reality from imagination. There's a good middle ground where you can still play the part of a heel dick and not have to worry about your job.

One local indie show, I was pretty much always apart of the show every month

 

[CakeWalker]

eventually - the trigger mob is just going to want all heels to be banned

and just have a babyface parade

I just think it's also best not to make it more than what it is without knowing what went on backstage too etc. I think most of the negative speculation in this case especially has been pushed by dirtsheets too. I've read no where however that anyone wants him fired outside of a very very minority of extreme folk

 

[Jobber Doink]

Steve Austin would be so canceled in 2021.

 

[Chris]

If y'all wanna insult each other without being canceled just do it like @Butters and i do to each other, forces you to be more clever

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Fuck Butters

 

[Canadian Dragon]

Much like Sammy it's just a lesson about the way things are in 2021, and I think he honestly can come back even better. Talented dude in the ring, just needs a small tweak n i still think they future tag champs
