"You need to go away for a bit Pal, but here's 5 million dollars to tide you over" really that simple.

Frank Drebin 04-09-2017 10:08 PM

After all the stuff came out about Demott, what was the excuse given for letting him go?

Frank Drebin 04-09-2017 10:20 PM

Guessing his methods weren't considered......humorous....?

Yeah either Mattel or one of the new sponsors NBC/USA Network brought in would be enough to sway the decision to get rid of JBL.

Besides the Benoit incident, Mattel played a big role in why the WWE pushed to become PG during the mid-2000s.

None I think. They just let him save some face by resigning instead of getting fired.

Quote:

Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com got an official response from WWE regarding the allegations against DeMott on Tuesday, saying the company took the allegations seriously, "conducted a full investigation and was unable to validate the claims. Regardless, WWE continues to reinforce policies and procedures to ensure a positive training environment."

DeMott made the decision to resign from the company two days after that statement was released. He's been working in the business since 1995, when he debuted in WCW. The 48-year-old moved to WWE in 2001, after WCW was bought by Vince McMahon and remained there until 2007.

So John Cena said. Are you doubting John Cena?



He also said it in Shisen's hometown of Tampa, FL. Further PROOF that it did happen! USA#1!!!!!!

None of this means a person can't be a piece of shit. You can be a humanitarian AND a dickhead. Not mutually exclusive.

Funny how, by and large, there are folks defending this dude, but Bill Demott is just an irredeemable asshole merely because people remember Bradshaw's career way more fondly.

To be clear, I think they're both turds.

There's a difference between hazing and straight up bullying in the same way there's a difference in being mutually "playful" and sexual assault. One is about knowing your audience, so to speak, and the other is a one way street about exerting your will. By the sounds of things, Bradshaw falls into the latter category. And no, I'm not saying "JBL is a rapist", so anyone looking to retort to that can miss me with that shit before you even start; you can see the logical connection to what I was saying for the message there and not the words used.

There's only so much "he's just an old school guy/boys will be boys" can cushion. There are such things as personal boundaries.

Rene has always been sour about his experience in the WWE. Wasn't surprised when he had something negative to say about JBL.

weak
wēk
adjective

1. lacking the power to perform physically demanding tasks; lacking physical strength and energy.

"she was recovering from the flu and was very weak"

synonyms: frail, feeble, delicate, fragile;

2. liable to break or give way under pressure; easily damaged

Ol Dirty Dastard 04-10-2017 09:46 AM

meh. IMO JBL and Vince are both snakes. But that's not anything anybody didn't already know.

Bad News Gertner 04-10-2017 10:00 AM

Bunch of vaginas

Ol Dirty Dastard 04-10-2017 10:01 AM

lol would love to see how Gertner handled being bullied by JBL

Ol Dirty Dastard 04-10-2017 10:12 AM

Honestly just trying to put myself in those shoes of if I was in the company and dealing with this shit situation.

a) I have some mental illnesses and I am kinda "weak" in the sense I would not know how to manage a situation where the bosses pet is trying to rape me in the shower and trying to steal my passport.

b) while I think I'm fairly tough, I'm only 6'2" 200 lbs and not a professional wrestler who knows how to bump and gets punched in the face every day. JBL particularly in his prime was like 280 pounds of mean Texan who was a legit hard, hard man. I am easily no match for him. Especially if someone like John Morrison is scared of him. He could sneeze and blow me away.

I mean what do you do, threaten him with a baseball bat? I mean yeah I could sucker punch him in the nose, but who knows what he does from there?

Ol Dirty Dastard 04-10-2017 10:17 AM

I just keep imagining this scene, if Justin Roberts tried to stand up to Bradshaw. lol

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HO0pASt4IIU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

like yeah, the "boys" are mad at Tommy, but it's more like "ah well you better deal with this" versus anyone actually sticking up for the guy

This is the part I dont understand. I was a short fat kid. Bullied on the reg. So I took up wrestling, martial art and later boxing. Started hitting the weights. I wasnt bullied much longer.


I was weak so I was picked on.


Solution? Stop being weak.


If you dont like your situation then change it...or I dunno...be a victim. Whatever works for you I guess.

Ol Dirty Dastard 04-10-2017 10:36 AM

there are lots of people without that ability.

And like.... if John Morrison, professional badass is worried about JBL, of course Justin Roberts profession tiny man who can't is going to be.

That's great that you toughened up, but it's ridiculous to think that the world should be a place where people have to learn how to fight.

Justin Roberts and Mauro Ranallo likely got into announcing/commentating because they are not jocks.

I think you are being bullheaded and backwards.

Ol Dirty Dastard 04-10-2017 10:38 AM

And very much the same, as much as those people could stop being victims, JBL can just stop being a dickhead.

I've been in your spot too bro, I've gotten passed bullying. Just because I did, doesn't mean people deserve to be victimized because they aren't fighters. It's what separates us from the savages.

Don't excuse garbage conduct just because you learnt how to fight, therefore everyone should.

I used to be hard on people with weight problems because I lost all my weight. I then realized that made me a giant, unfeeling douchebag.

John Morrison is not a proffesional badass lol

Ol Dirty Dastard 04-10-2017 10:41 AM

In saying that, I think there's a middle ground between WWEs awful, shitty (alleged) work environment and just being way too soft. Wrestling is a tough business, but sociopathic behaviour shouldn't be encouraged.

lol okay well tell me how you do when you fight him.

Destor 04-10-2017 10:44 AM

But no, staying weak is elective. cowardice isnt an aflcition its a descision. If you want to stay that way that's totally fine but im not going to pity you for it. And Im not going to lay on my sword for you either. You prioritized other things. People are probably going to take advantage of you. I wont personally but you're going to have to fight your own battles. Now I know the entire forum is going to start virtue signaling and thats fine, Im sure the Robert's of the world appreciate the help. I just dont feel any pity.

Ol Dirty Dastard 04-10-2017 10:46 AM

Feeling bad for someone getting bullied is not virtue signalling.

Nobody here is telling you that you're a bully or a bigot. Don't make this "that" kind of argument. Don't cast assumptions about who we are because we aren't doing it to you.

I dunno, pretty sure Stickman said if I didnt agree I was a bully. Just saying.

JBL was ragging on Mauro for being a mark for himself and delicate snowflake couldn't handle it. Wah. This is why nobody watches anymore. Where did all the men go? Been replaced by a bunch of fairies in tights.

Bad News Gertner 04-10-2017 11:20 AM

It's just a witch hunt because people are still bitter that JBL won the title from Deadie Guerrero
