Reddit user rickyrockwell posted the following Greg "The Hammer" Valentine interview recap:

Greg "The Hammer" Valentine took part in a live podcast this weekend for the View from Filsinger Games Headquarters.

During the Q&A portion, he randomly brought up his views on women's wrestling ... saying, “As far as girl wrestling, I would send them all out to the strip bar and fire ’em.”

Some other quotes: “I’d fire every girl wrestler I ever saw. They don’t draw any money, they have horrible matches. Uh … they’re terrible. That’s the way I feel.”

“They take away jobs from men that need to support their families. They should be home washing dishes and cooking and pregnant and barefoot.”

“I love women … but they gotta realize their place. They’re not supposed to be wrestlers. They’re not supposed to be MMA fighters or boxers. It’s bullshit.”

:pipebomb:

Raised by parents born in the 20s, what do you expect. Just an old man stuck in the past.

Old mindset for an old man. Seriously though, the same people who're surprised by this were probably the same ones that were shocked to find out that Hogan was racist. What do you expect from guys who were born before an era where race and gender are accepted as equals?

While I can respect him and his right to hold those views, I don't think he's converting a lot of people to those views.

Besides, anybody who doesn't appreciate the fact that Lita-Trish, Gail-Mickie, Becky-Sasha, etc., aren't quality wrestling obviously isn't somebody I'm going to agree with. They may not be your cup of tea, but they are good wrestlers.

Pretty petty thing to say, even if it is from someone in the past.

Everything he said is correct. Every woman's match i've ever seen is awkward as hell.

Interesting point of view considering how he currently looks like an old woman :hmm:

I was laughing my ass off when I read this. But he's old. That's it, plain and simple.
