Maybe Hogan just has jealous eyes? Remember when this photo came out w/ his daughter?

Isn't the girl whose ass he's NOT rubbing lotion on his daughter's friend who he was sleeping with at the time?
 
What the fuck do you want them to do?

WWE is notorious for double standards. They kept a guy like DeMott for years, despite numerous reports of abuse, treatment of women, etc. They still employ Hayes, who on numerous occasions has made racist comments.

Hell, Randy Orton would haze the women wrestlers time and time again. Just ask Maria about her gym bag and Orton taking a shit in it. But he's still employed.
 
Its been years since I went to one. Last time was in Montreal, and I couldn't possibly tell you the names of the couple we hit up there. One was a dive during the day, and the second one was at night, much nicer, and much more expensive. Also been to several in the states, but again, we are talking quite a while ago. Ever since having kids, its really hard to justify spending money at places like that.

And at both of the two in Montreal we (group of guys) were all propositioned. At the dive by a "dancer" smoking outside as we were leaving and just chatting on the street, and at the upscale one by several different "dancers" throughout the night.

Well, as that's your experience I can't really argue, but I can say with plenty of confidence there are plenty of dancers who have zero interest in doing anything beyond dancing. I feel people should have the benefit of the doubt and not be classified as whores due to that profession. Sex work needs to be regulated as it were, but that's a conversation for another time and in another place.
 
WWE does have legit black Wrestlers that I can see making legit champions like Big E, Titus, or hell even Xavior Woods (how fucking awesome would that be lol?)

The problem now though if they did it, it would seem like they were doing it to cover up this Hulk Hogan shit. Still though, they really do need to put more of the black wrestlers in the spotlight because there are some seriously talented wrestlers on the roster. That New Day vs Primetime Players tag team match during the last ppv was so fucking good.
 
Hulk will be back. Give it time. He said some vile things but time will heal all wounds. We'll realize that there is some gray area and that enough people will come out to support him saying he was always great to them.

He's going to make way less money now but that's not really my problem.
 
I just heard about this.

Why, Hogan, why? You've brought shame to all those little Hulksters who took their vitamins and said their prayers. Why dammit, why!?

Randy's has numerous issues and a couple steroids violations, as well. They, like they do with the Michael Hayes problem, cover it up. Heck, they made a new rule that wiped away previous violations after so many years (because that person is bound to screw up again). They'll only 'care' about these in-house problems when they're outed by a major station, magazine, or company.
 
"I mean, I don’t have double standards. I mean, I am a racist, to a point, f*cking n*ggers. But then when it comes to nice people and sh*t, and whatever."

I don't get what he was trying to say, was it the whole "There's black people, then there's niggers!" excuse?

"Gray areas."

That's some shit racist people say to pretend that they're not racist. "THERE'S A DIFFERENCE" bullshit like that.

Sounds like it, yeah. If he thinks you're cool then you're cool I guess, but if not then you are a...well you know.

Wonder what black wrestlers who know him think. Maybe they already knew? Maybe they were in the "we're cool" group?
 
Its an interesting contrast on how pervasive racism is in the WWE given how much Vince despises wrestlings southern roots and the south in general.

Yeah, that was a real popular mantra when I was growing up. You're just calling that black person an asshole, right.

Didn't take long to figure out that was full of shit. Its amazing the mental hoops we'll jump through to justify irrational hatred.
 
On one hand, I want to doubt that Hogan is truly a racist, but just a delusional out of touch old man. On the other, such horrific comments deserve consequences, regardless of intentions.

Speaking of, remember when Vince said the N word? Now that was some awful shit.

Damn. I just read the transcript, that was much worse than I was expecting from what I had been reading.
 
Another childhood memory is tarnished badly. Thankfully Mr. Rogers passed away gracefully and Bruce Willis is still going strong even if his movies haven't.
 
First Micheal Jordan turns out to be an asshole, now turns out Hulk Hogan is shamelessly racist to the point of actually saying "im racist", geeez GAF, what other of my childhood heroes you want to ruin for me? ;____;

The oposite actually, he's like "im racist, and i know it's me the problem cause there is nice people even if im racist to them", he's going all backwards in terms or racist behavior, you know how other celebrities who are racist try to deny it and go "im not racist but [racist remarks]", Hulk hogan is going the oposite "I am racist but [Shit admitting he is the problem]".

At least that's what i got from that line.
 
Jerry Lawler talked about his anti-gay politics for years in RAW.

I guess it just depends on the timing.

Good on the WWE.
 
Now I know how generations older than me felt about Cosby. This is a real bummer. My childhood heroes are pieces of shit. At least I still have Magic Johnson.
 
I'm curious what this means for all the old content WWE owns of Hogan. Plus, his appearance in the video games and such.
 
I don't know who I hate more out of this - Hogan for saying what he did, or Gawker for going full blown hit job on Hogan because he's going to sue them out of existence. Gawker has zero credibility (it's more or less being assumed by major news outlets that Gawker leaked the video to Nat'l Enquirer & Radar) out of all of this now.

I'm sure the footage of him in the Network will stay. If they do anything, you probably just won't be able to search for him.

As far as videogames go, I'm not entirely sure.

He'll get the Beniot treatment. They'll leave his matches in but any specials dedicated to him are probably gone and no chance he's featured in the games anymore.
