He shouldn't be. Who would want someone like that representing your company?

But yeah, lets assume it's "in-character"

I wish villains could be truly despicable :( You and your whitewashin' knows no ends!

Let us have a truly hated champion somewhere!

Isnt he a face in ROH? Hes been homophobic before and had to apologize for it. The shooting part is a little strong. Those tweets have been.up for 4 hours too.

Uh, well shit. Just goes to show I dont watch ROH :O

Breaking news everyone, Jay Briscoe is being homophobic on twitter again.



He then follows that up with

.

Im assuming he wont be champion for much longer.
This is either an amazing commitment to his character, or he is not actually playing one.

Keep in mind that the only things I know about the Briscoes I learned in a YouTube video of them in a field shooting shit with shotguns.

That was my introduction as well.

I can't help it, I'm Dutch. We've had marriage equality for over ten years now, it is so normal now I can't handle people speaking up against it. I am too damn liberal now, Fox News could make a documentary on me to warn the US Public of the error of socialist ways.
 
Also from the dirt sheets today:

- Ring of Honor star Mike Bennett is said to be on WWE's radar, however people in ROH don't expect him to leave any time soon. There is also renewed speculation that WWE is interested in Mark and Jay Briscoe.

Be a star campaign just got interesting.

Of course I want people beating others within an inch of their life, robbing each other, hating people for bad reasons - I want crowd REACTIONS goddammit, play a character and let them be evil!

I was very disappointed that WWE backpedaled so much on Zeb Coulter and wouldn't let them go absolutely bananas. It's all theater. People are racist in movies. Why not let it bleed over? I think you could get a much larger crowd reaction (though not how they'd want, but still.)

I agree, characters on TV should definitly be able to be despicable. But American TV is too uptight anyways. No boobs, no "fucks," etc.

It's so weird considering your culture. Never really got that.

Religion did most of that and set the groundwork. It's ok to have death in religion, but no teats.

No, it's not religion. It's the general culture and media that surrounds it. Even the depiction of death in the US is pretty tame compared to the rest of the world. Our news never shows gruesome stuff. Never. In the rest of the world, even places more religious, the news shows everything.
 
Jay Briscoe also tweeted that homosexuals were to blame for Hurricane Irene. Yeah.

I'd be surprised if anything happens other than he deletes the tweets and apologies, again. This is, like, the 3rd or 4th time now he's said something decidedly bigoted against homosexuals.

Seriously, that's so perplexing. Over here, you've got to keep it clean until the watershed at 9pm, then everything afterwards is fair game.

Well I'm goin waaaay back so that may be part of it. Religion were the puppeteers of a lot of stuff in its infancy, and some of it just keeps going. It's pretty wild.

Although I'm a socialist, myself, Europeans shouldn't be judging anyone when it comes to how others are treated, lol.

That's not really true in the US, either. I would argue that there is greater division among the states than there is in the EU, for instance. Most European countries still generally agree on some type of centrist to socialist policies, such as universal healthcare and cheap education, but in the US, the ideologies differ drastically from state to state. We literally have some states trying to set up their own universal healthcare plan, and some where the government is trying to take away all governmental help on healthcare. Some states where guns are free everywhere, and some where they're trying to get rid of them, as much as possible.

The US is just as, if not more, divided than the EU.

Still no clue how many teams are in this thing, but we need some international talent already! It's the tag WORLD grand prix, isn't it? Also, The Batiri's facepaint is awesome.

Quiet you! They're Japanese demon spirits! Kodama dwells in trees and curses those that interfere with its forest, while Obaryion latches itself to a human's back and becomes unbearably heavy. Kobald, meanwhile, is the lord of all the goblins! Beware, lest you displease them as Veda Scott clearly has;

You know far too much Batiri lore!

Thought you said McMahonism. What a religion!

Let's be honest, it's KINDA similar no?

So I'm watching Raw and just got to the Sheamus bit. Why is his skin turning yellow around his eyes? Liver failer, eating too many fava beans, finally started the reverse of fake-tan spray?

I will never truly understand your nation and it's contradictions, which why I'm content to be a citizen of a nation that makes sense with my Conservative-Liberal Democrat government.

Damn Vida scott is awesome

Aye, Veda Scott is. http://youtu.be/t8KMcBQ01ZM

So as long as I stay out of the forest I won't get kneed in the face with some crazy tag team move?
 
You have one timezone, we have three in the contiguous United States. 9pm in New York is 6pm in San Francisco.

So you get the same programs at 6pm as 9pm East Coast? I thought you had regional TV stations and all that? That's strange, man.

Yet, it's fair game for 24/7 News Networks to show all kinds of crazy gun shoot outs.

Hypothetical question time:

Oh no! John Cena has perished in a car accident, and you're Vince McMahon!

"GODDAMMIT I need a big up and comer to work an impossible schedule and be a wholesome face for kids! Who am I going to choose goddammit?"

Whose shoulders do you put the WWE on to fill Cena's shoes with regards to being needed for EVERY SINGLE APPEARANCE as well as SHITLOADS of extracurricular activity like Make-A-Wish?

WHO? And why?

Daniel Bryan is the most universally over performer on the roster.

edit: But Vince would choose Sheamus. Clearly.

I don't because I'm a dirty poor but people with satellite tv on the west coast watch the same broadcasts as the east coast.
 
I saw some bagged milk on sale here the other day and almost felt compelled to pull my keys out and shank it there and then. Bagged milk will never find safe haven upon these shores! Fucking crazy Canadians.

Why are those juggalos kicking the shit out of women folk inside of a circle with squares?

Believe it or not, but Veda's totally the heel in this feud, so she kinda deserves it.

Pretty much. Don't steal their tag belts either, they don't seem to like it.

Yeah, I know that, but I assumed the west coast just got everything on a 3 hour delay.
 
America is pretty fucking weird, but I feel like we have a more singular culture than Europe.

You probably have a more unified culture than the UK!

North v South
England v Scotland v Ireland v Wales
Chavs/Charvers/Townies v Normal Peoples.

Then there's the whole tribalism based around Football/Soccer teams.

You could replace that with American equivalents, and be the same. I mean, seriously, North vs. South?
