I think we just all see how to act differently. Like, I just don't see the point of being an asshole to people. Should it get you fired? Probably not, but that still doesn't make what YOU'RE doing right. Look at a lot of the people who held people down, and most of it was for ego. Now think if those superstars didn't hold others down how much MORE money could have been made. Having two draws in a match, is better than having one. Ego causes that.

Maybe instead of him being fired, someone higher up than him should've humbled him, and bought him back down to earth.

And maybe WWE shouldn’t have allowed that culture to flourish. All of a sudden when Velveteen does it it’s a problem but it went unnoticed for 30 years

Hey no, it surely should have been handled much sooner, for sure. But I doubt he's the first person to be punished for acting like this. :maury

The entire Kliq were literal pieces of shit and they admit it.
What I've been saying. I said earlier Scott says on a shoot that he's had people in the locker room say to his face they hated him, but when it came time to get match assignments, that same person would jump at a chance to work with him. The business isn't about making friends. :vincemoney

If that was true Shawn Michaels wouldn’t exist lmfao. Mans was a fucking horror show but it went overlooked cause he could get it done in between the ropes.

I didn't say everyone got punished, did I? No. I said Dream surely wasn't the first. So can I be an asshole to you now since clearly I read better than you do? Can I be a cocky little fucking shit about it?

All that I know is that I liked Dreams version of the Death Valley Driver. Sucks that his time in NXT is over.

Most of the greats in wrestling have had an arrogance and huge ego at some point in their careers. The difference is that Velveteen started out in WWE with that attitude at a very young age. He was on Tough Enough at age 19 or 20. He knew that he had the most engaging personality out of the males on that show.

Maybe they should have had Big Show go down to NXT for awhile before he left to humble Velveteen a little bit. I really wish that things worked out better with him.

WWE picks and chooses who to punish. Pretty fucking stupid.

Yeah true, I agree, and like I said he shouldn't have been fired for the attitude issues. Just humbled. I like @Fearless idea they should have sent Big Show to NXT while they had him, and let him humble the fuck out of Dream.

I'm still a better reader than you. :goku

That was my argument this whole time but of course everyone just yells at me for the sake of yelling at me lmao. I said it’s probably not great he was arrogant but he didn’t deserve to be fired.

But at the same time, you seemed to be defending it and thinking its okay because he's young and has a right to be an asshole. Like, just because people in the past did it, doesn't make it right you know? Like sure you can be confident, that's 100% cool. But there is that point where it crosses a line. You have to learn where that line is, pull it back a little bit, and go from there.

I agree they shouldn't have fired him tbh. He's better off busy with wrestling than texting kids

Yes but I also explained that he shouldn’t be shit on when it’s been a problem for years. If Shawn Michaels can get drunk and high and shows and start fights with people and refuse to put others over and try to control booking and not get fired than Dream shouldn’t be fired just for being arrogant. Maybe WWE should start teaching their talent better rather than picking and choosing who to punish. I’m not about this whole “let’s make an example out of him” nonsense

See this, this is what I can agree with. Surely the end part about helping the talent learn, that or start being more fair with it. Don't pick and choose. Cause yeah it's fucked up you can get away with stuff just because of you who are, or the name value you have. I don't like that, I never have. I'm sure plenty of my favorites have been assholes also, hell I'm pretty fucking sure of it. I don't hold it against them in a they shouldn't have got the push they deserve, etc. Cause that be dumb. But I would not have minded someone humbling them. They been plenty who have been and got brought down to earth.

Look at it this way, because of the way I view life, and how you should treat people, it's why back when pretty much everyone here shit on you, and hated you, I was the one who was nice to you, yeah I might have been mean sometimes I'm sure, probably, it's been years. But I still treated you with respect because that's how you're suppose to treat your fellow humans.
