Cena probably gonna issue a small public apology to clarify some shyt and be good, but you can’t tell me Taker didn’t take liberties with that chair shot.

I don’t really think Cena should address anything at all tbh. He didn’t say anything wrong, he was towing the company line and saying that Kanyon couldn’t cut it in the WWE. He didn’t attack his character as a person or anything even though I’m sure some people will act like he did. Not every controversial thing this show drums up needs to be addressed.

I dont think Cena should get any heat for saying that. It just looks bad after the fact.


Watchng the doc, I think his bipolarism and depression was the toughest part but it also meant he was kinda abusive to others and himself emotionally and physically and thats what kinda self destructed his career. In today's climate he'd probably get help and a bigger support system.

Yeah I don’t think his sexual orientation hurt his career so much as he was just mentally unwell and he couldn’t be trusted with that going on. It’s hard to do something with someone who’s ready and able to self destruct at any given moment and unlike some of the more notable self destructive figures in the business, Kanyon unfortunately didn’t have the clout or cache to get away with it.

I don’t think it was done maliciously given the context, but I do feel like considering the optics in hindsight he probably will want to get out in front of any potential blow back considering he’s blowing up as an actor and the public MIGHT make it bigger than it should be

I could see that. Personally I don’t think it’ll really get thrown in his face or anything but it would be something to keep an eye on in his shoes

Pat patterson was widely known as gay yet this dude thinks he was being punished

i wonder how that woman that he filmed during sex feels …did he have her permission to film n show the biys

This is probably the topic I knew about the least. Didn't know about him and the Sinister Minister, nor him jumping into the corner after Mania XX.

I feel bad for the guy, and that Undertaker segment was despicable, but unfortunately he was also his own worst enemy.

I see some people trying to come after Cena after his statement about the guy. Just because he said he was a bad wrestler doesn't make Cena an evil person.

Did DDP age 20 years since his last appearance? Must be the beard, I guess.

Also, did Ric Flair took control of his own Twitter account? Some of the stuff he's writing is baffling.

I thought the same about DDP, but he is 65 years old. I guess he's just finally starting to look his age.

Regarding Cena, I think he was just towing the company line. It really sounded like his response about Kanyon was rehearsed, same with Flair's. Someone in WWE clearly didn't like Kanyon, but like you said he was his own worst enemy.

This is the thing that I see happening now, and people need to relax. So now, it's like every week, people are gonna pop up with a new guy to "cancel" online or demand some kinda response... if I'm Cena, I ain't payin' any of that any attention. They'll be on to someone else in another 6 days.

Always thought that Undertaker/Kanyon Boy George thing was a piece of trash. There was absolutely no point to it. I remember feeling that way in real time and it’s no different now. There wasn’t really any follow up or anything, it felt like something non-canon happening.

Had no idea the Young Bucks and Brian Cage had anything to do with Kanyon, but that showed how long they’ve been around the business even at their age.
