Off-topic, but I've never seen this before.
:snoop: Things like that video make me ashamed to be a black wrestling fan. I can't wait for the day when mainstream outlets finally expose WWE and their despicable history.
Lol..go to YouTube and look up Shawn and Cripple H calling Mark Henry the Kool Aid Man when he was rocking that Jiggaboo Red outfit every week.

Wonder if she/they had the same energy for their new father in law?:jbhmm:
WWE: Did The Former Director Of Talent Really Say That About AJ Lee?
"As for Sexy Star, they thought her work was terrible, her English was terrible and they also thought she was overweight and wasn’t pretty enough without the mask. John Laurinaitis told the officials at FCW that when it comes to hiring women, the standard is if they aren’t pretty enough to be in Playboy, then the company wouldn’t want them."

All of this grandstanding would probably carry more weight if they weren't employed by a company whose stock-in-trade is being problematic. Every form of bigotry that you can think of, WWE has put on their programs, and you don't have to go that far back either. This shyt is ludicrous when you consider that they are employed by a guy who literally made a woman strip, get on her knees, and bark like a dog.

From this weeks Observer

I ended up being in the eye of the storm this week based on comments that I made on Wrestling Observer Radio last week.

For those who defended me, thanks. But I was wrong the way I worded things. Yes, things were taken out of context and the meaning espoused to what I said wasn’t what I meant. Even saying that, I was still wrong and apologized, actually immediately for it, to Peyton Royce. It was sincere. I knew the fact I apologized and sincerely felt bad wasn’t going to matter. And I know many felt I made a big mistake in doing so. But this was not a political decision, it was a decision based on my own feeling of right and wrong, and I was wrong. It’s a very tricky issue because I hate objectifying women or men based on looks while covering a business that is so heavily based on looks and bodies and where judgments are made. It’s really difficult because this is a business where cosmetic look plays a gigantic factor in who gets pushed and who doesn’t. It’s the nature of the entertainment business. To ignore that fact would really be not doing a part of my job. But others do the same job and I’ve been lucky enough to be a major player, and thus under a heavier microscope. But I still shouldn’t have said what I said. It is a difficult balancing act to be honest in analysis, but that’s not an excuse. We all make mistakes and all you can do is learn from them. I’ve learned from this one. It won’t happen again.

Not sure what more he can do now :manny: Let's see if people let it go :mjgrin:

What's hilarious about all of this is that every female in the company has now handicapped themselves, because one of the common talking points in a woman's promo is talking about how much better looking she is than her opponent. The Iconics whole gimmick is putting down other women's physical appearances and thinking they're better looking:mjlol:
