good lord, might as well just strip and do it on stage.
 
If this wasn't a work it will be now.

Don't disagree with Hemme if she thought this was honestly out of bounds but she should have went to her bosses and not twitter.
 
It is certainly stupid and inane, but so, almost certainly, are many of your hobbies and interests. The difference between video games, wrestling, watching basketball, playing with dolls and watching reality TV is mostly just aesthetic preference; none of them are highly productive, intellectually intense activities. All of them are silly wastes of time. Very few of us have literally zero frivolous, time wasting hobbies, so either you're criticizing 99.7% of the population for being stupid inane fools (on a video game board, no less), or we can agree that criticizing virtually everyone for not living up to their full potential is both mean spirited and also nonconstructive.

I was feeling mean-spirited as I was hungry and the Chinese restaurant was late with their delivery so I can't disagree with much here. As I get older I have less and less time for the crass and simplistic (celebrity 'culture' reality tv, sports etc don't hold much interest). I'm on a Video game board .. because I love 4x games (and complicated sports management games) and very little else, and NeoGAF is probably the most intelligent board out there.

I probably should have said wrestling was "Simplistic faux-sports slapstick aimed at non-discriminating audiences"

P.S. My Szechuan duck was delicious ...
 
Its wrestling and he is playing a character. Give him a slight punishment because he crossed the line but he doesn't deserve firing.

Bah, I didn't see any malicious intent on his part.
Really stupid to make this into something it isn't.

If she was offended, and that's certainly her right if it was unexpected, there's much better ways to deal with this than to make it into a sexual harassment case.

Real dumb shit, but that's to be expected coming from TNA at this point.

Just think, 15 years ago she could have been hit over the head with a cane in ECW.

Is he a decent wrestler? Because he seems like a tool. Also, do wrestlers use Twitter and break kayfabe normally or are they always on? This could easily be a work. Though, that may he giving them too much creative credit.

And since when has tna had four sided rings?

I don't really follow TNA or any wrestling for that matter but he was by far the best male wrestler at a house show I attended about a year ago.
 
That is harassment as it was unknown and unrehearsed.
Yeah. She's literally cornered and being embarrassed and humiliated on live TV. He knew she couldn't do anything without looking more foolish. He took advantage of her situation.

In pro wrestling world though, it's hilarious heel work. He just should have gotten permission first.

Well touching your opponent is normal in a wrestling match, hell, a military press requires your hand on the opponent's crotch, and a powerbomb requires their crotch in your face. It's just something to ignore.

However, with Layla it's a bit of a trend.

Why is this woman sexually assaulting all of those other women?

Yeah, he's now the eccentric, coked-up leader of heel stable CHAOS, rather than plain ol' super serious strongstyle Nakamura.



Mike Bennett & Maria Kanellis.

Thought that was her. I see she's dropped to ROH (hoo boy).

I haven't been hit this hard by a gimmick change since early 90's prototype strong-style Chono to, ya know. Looked up a Shinsuke match immediately and... I'm ready to drop MMA and come back. I'll assume Tanahashi has followed suit on the crazy/work skills.

It's nice to dream. Tanahashi is doing the same things he's always done.
 
It's harassment.

If you are a man, how would it feel to have another man intentionally back you into a corner and put his crotch in your face?

If I were in the wrestling business, I'd probably be thinking, "Well, at least I'm not getting the Bronco Buster from a guy with Hep. C right now..."

But maybe not this...

...

It's idiocy aimed at morons (if you're not a moron and still enjoy then that's just puzzling to me)

I watched some, and, like the worst of Jerry Springer et al, it just made me ashamed to be human.

And your contribution to society is ... what?

Pretty shameful on Austin's part. I'm guessing Christy gonna get some heat for this too, unfortunately.

Wrestling's weird. It has some abhorrent things within it's internal culture - but hot damn do I love watching a good match/promo/segment. Good job on delivering on the gifs yo.

Here's the kicker: That was probably Steph's idea.

No way. That definitely feels like a creepy Vince thing who thought it'd be great to have his daughter called a slut and ho on national TV every week. And have people make fun of her tits.

Aries is probably the kind of dude that thinks rape isn't rape if you don't ejaculate inside their body.
