Breaking News: Vince McMahon officially resigns from WWE/TKO amid Sex Trafficking allegations

[dh86]

The part in the suit about Bianca not wanting to do the stereotypes makes me kinda sad

 

[The Rainmaker]

Who's that Bryan CACllahan and why is he the "vice president" of Smackdown? What does that even mean?

64. Prior to the writing of this scene many of the WWE writers commonly complained that they didn’t know what to do with Ms. Belair.

72. In conversation with Ms. Belair the following day, Ms. Belair informed Plaintiff that she told DUNN “3 DIFFERENT TIMES THAT I DON'T WANT TO SAY THAT LINE! BUT HE NEVER LISTENS TO ME! HE PUTS THAT LINE IN EVERY WEEK.”
73. Ms. Belair said the script’s discriminatory line(s) made her look “ghetto.”

By way of example, it was discussed in the WWE writer’s Slack channel before a show, that a new wrestler, Reggie, would dress in drag complete with wig and tights, “so he could partner with Carmella, a female wrestler, in a tag-team match against other female wrestlers.”

Subsequently, a storyline was pitched by CALLAHAN where Shane would capture Reggie and constantly beat him up, but Reggie would always escape after being captured.

107. Afterwards, Plaintiff spoke with Mr. Parise, a white, Caucasian WWE writer, who revealed that he agreed with Plaintiff that the pitch was racist, but he felt too nervous to speak up about it in front of CALLAHAN.

140. In or around November 2021 a WWE writer, Mr. Zach Hyatt (“Mr. Hyatt”) admitted to Plaintiff and another black, female WWE writer, Ms. Sylvers that he was “afraid to critique his group of Black wrestlers.”
141. Plaintiff and Ms. Sylvers spoke to the black performers directly, who expressed feeling “unheard and misunderstood culturally” and who thanked Plaintiff and Ms. Sylvers for their compassionate approach to writing for black, and other minority characters.

145. Ms. Sylvers and Plaintiff, the only black writers on the team, at the time, were tasked to pitch a love storyline between wrestlers Aaliyah, Mansoor, and Angel Garza, who are both Muslim).
146. Ms. Sylvers and Plaintiff pitched that Mansoor has a secret that he’s keeping from Aaliyah.
147. CALLAHAN disagreed with the secret Ms. Sylvers and Plaintiff wanted for the character.
148. Instead, CALLAHAN suggested, “how about his secret is he's behind the 9/11 attacks?”
149. Ms. Sylvers nervously laughed and said, “let's not do that. Let's talk about the other part of the pitch.”
150. CALLAHAN said, “Oh, I guess you're the lead writer now.”

168. LUBRANO followed up and told Plaintiff she was doing a great job and that “[Pritchard], [MR. MCMAHON], and [MS. MCMAHON] love [Plaintiff’s] writing. But [Plaintiff] should be careful to pick and choose [Plaintiff’s] battles.”

Respectfully submitted, THE COCHRAN FIRM

Nothing in her claims puts Vince directly present, or involved, in anything that happened. It reads like a nothingburger in the long run.

Some of y’all got mad at people for wishing death on Vince. He’s racist and a rapist. You can’t get any lower as a person. The company and the world will be better without people like him.

She's looking to prove that there was "discriminatory treatment, harassment, hostile work environment, wrongful termination, and unlawful retaliation against the Plaintiff due to her race, color, and gender" not that Vince was sitting at the head of the table with a giant pencil, writing all those ideas down as he twirled his mustache before saying "That's racist enough - good job, everyone - let's go for lunch"

She included Vince and Stephanie in the suit, but all she has is that they were in the Slack group.

They’ll probably settle with her, but I just don’t see any substantial changes as to how the writing room operates coming from this.

It doesn't have to refer to him directly. He's the chairman

remember y’all got mad at Vince Russo for calling Bianca promos stereotypical

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

This should surprise absolutely nobody

WWE stans still gonna pretend that the organization has evolved and are on a higher moral ground than AEW? This shyt is all carnies... all of 'em

 

[MenacingMonk]

Lost on why she wants the job back

Is this the same girl that called Bob “Bobby Ashley”?

at wanting the job back while suing them over cism and the workplace being shytty overall. Makes no damn sense.

 

[Cattle Mutilation]

Found the storyline that Ali told Vince to kick rocks over.

Edit: Wait - they pitched this for Mansoor? The Saudi cat who was 6 in 2001? And now he's a model?

I'm just reading this on wiki - you have to bear with me.

I don't even....

What a career arc. A young terrorist prodigy to a model.

Obviously the shyt is lazy and racist but it’s also just dumb wrestling writers shyt. Who tf is gonna draw enough 9/11 heat on cable television to even attempt a storyline like that in 2023? People are either going to cancel them on Twitter or more than likely tune out and not care at all, per usual. Like we all pretty much assumed they were racist but Jesus Christ they are dumb as fukk.

 

[Kidd Dibiase]

Listening to STWW this sounds about right, just spitballing random shyt knowing it doesnt really make sense to quote “you know, what if?”

Problem is, some of those shyts made it to tv because Vince decided fukk it why not or because he thought it was funny
