Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
He isn't the guy talking though?
Sure as fuck not a great match segment to be tied to.

It certainly sounds like him the second time.
Plus what Mahony said. Not a good look.
Will....look out for yourself m8

Absolutely not, I'd agree with that.
the person talking at the end sounds a lot like KO. But regardless, not a good thing to be attached to

And yeah, that sounded like Owens on the mic when the camera is focused on the ring.
Don't look at the comments

If it is him, that's pretty bad. That said, the twitter guy who posted it insists its a shoot, which seems very unlikely to me.
At worst, the only conclusion I can draw is that he was involved in some very questionable angles in the indies.
ummm is my exact thoughts

It's amazing how much an asshole 90s Shawn was
Definitely does not appear to be a shoot.
Just an absolutely fucking awful and offensive attempt to get heat.

If its him, I'm not even vaguely surprised that there are absurdly stupid offensive angles on the indies to get heat. That said, I don't think Steen has some kind of history of casual racism the way Hulk Hogan does, so I think he should get the benefit of the doubt.
Yep, that's the sad thing.
Hiding behind "it's wrestling"/"it's the indies"/"it was [black guy's] idea" wouldn't make him any less of a piece of traaash for participating. I'm sure he has lines he will not cross. This is a line that shouldn't be crossed by any decent person.

It's not "hiding" to say wrestling isn't real. Because it isn't. I'm not saying it isn't bad optics, because it is. But I don't think its fair to draw the conclusion that someone's shitty in-character rant in some high school gym from 10 years ago is a fair way to judge someone's real life character.

I really enjoyed the Human Tornado/Chris Hero feud.
I don't care about optics. I care about people being decent. He had his big boy pants on 10 years ago and should answer for his actions accordingly.

The wrestlers, even Human Tornado and El Generico are working the angle.....none of them took offense to it, but that doesn't mean that it's a part of who they are.
What you should take offense to, if anything is PWG running with that kind of racist talk in an angle. I know that is dirt old and PWG is more respectful now, but this is something I will think about before buying anything else from them.

Cody is stupidly over,and i say that as a relative fan. They also seemed to have stopped giving fucks and are calling him Rhodes.

Has he had any good matches yet?

I enjoyed his heel turn at ROH a lot, and his Wrestle Kingdom match. A lot of Twitter 180s from people who were at wXw this weekend as well. I think the expectations were too high, and he needd settling in time.
Go on.
His stuff with The Elite in NJPW is a lot of fun. Probably my favorite portion of his run so far.

Never would have thought Sanada and Yoshi Hashi would put on such a good match.

I think Meltzer said something that Sasha was originally going to win when the match was one on one with her vs Charlotte but then Becky got too over for them to ignore her (since her feud with Charlotte was the first time since the Diva's Revolution started that the storyline was well received by fans and made a lot more sense then the prior ones) so they had to push Sasha's big win until later and make it a triple threat.
Don't worry you'll see a Daniel vs Shibata in the G1 28 finals that will blow your socks off.
time for me to post this every time someone says hes great like certain people do here for aj

Becky was probably intended to be the cute sidekick forever until her angle with Charlotte got over for being (shock) sensibly booked and not outright intelligence insulting (until the Ric stuff at RR, of course). I think around WM32 is when they decided they wanted to build a brand division around her.
I don't actually know the full story on AJ Styles beyond the fact he used to call people "faggots" as promo material. That's definitely a horrible look, but I don't actually know how he personally feels about it. I certainly know where Brock Lesnar stands.

Almost all of the tension in the WWF locker room that caused Bret to leave and make the work environment near impossible for talent to rise up was because of HBK and HHH banding together. HBK refusing to job and coming in as junkie every week must have made the workplace fucking impossible to manage.
It HBK is around in 1998-2001 Rock would have never gotten a push.
But he did the job for Austin, probably the most important job in company history.
