If you actually believe in women being equal to men in wrestling, this situation reinforces that equality isn't even close yet.

Brock is looking more like one of the biggest dudes at your gym lately rather than a superhero. Imagine Meltzer bringing that up and a bunch of people sticking up on twitter for Brock being bodyshamed :mjlol::mjlol::mjlol::mjlol:.

It'd never happen. Because people understand it's cosmetic business. It's fake, nothing actually happens, everything in wrestling is just about how it looks. The women are still getting handled with kid gloves though, and I don't know that people who are behind the "women deserve just as much opportunity in wrestling/screentime/etc" realize that stuff like this incident goes against what they're pushing for.

The hilarious things is they were getting on Cena for his physique literally RIGHT BEFORE that shyt :russ:" Even implied he was juicing. But let it be a pwecious white lady and you get the outrage going. People love to infantilize women.

Cosign. WHy were they talking about Cena though? I haven't watched that much lately, but I thought he hasn't come back since Mania?

For real. You can't even criticize a match on social media or other forums without someone insinuating you're a misogynist. I'm at the point where I'm just going to skip women's matches again.

So he's just talking about seeing Cena at movie premieres or something? He hasn't actually had a segment since Mania, right?

Yeah. I think he posted a pic on IG.

Then they started talking about how looks shouldn't matter when people have skills. Said that Peyton was better before the implants but worded it wrongly and here we are.

Edit: It's crazy that this is the only wrestling platform I'm on that's level headed about this. Twitter is a firestorm and the forums are trash.

Also this is from a the Observer podcast last week. So I think some of his comments were fueled by the Iconics getting a boring chant last week.
