If Chyna has been insensitive towards anybody, it's been herself.

If Chyna has been insensitive towards anybody, it's been herself. I was hoping for "The WWF was insensitive for making us watch this," but this was good, too.

I'm sorry but the whole "Owen Voice" thing just sounds like a lame excuse to critique WWE. Some people will just dig as deep as they can to find a reason to trash WWE. How sad. How, may I ask, was I critiquing WWE? I used a rather common term that best describes the very worked nature of the somber "this is real" tone that gets used to put over injury angles. Nothing can beat the very real tone that was present at OTE '99, and it's obvious that it is the proverbial "blueprint" for any time they need to put one of those angles over. How exactly am I taking a dig at WWE? I doubt Chyna would do this angle as a nod to Owen's accident. They were apparently good friends according to her RAW Is OWEN interview. I never said anything about Chyna endorsing the angle at all. The primary device I was talking about was the commentary, and not the people in the ring.

I think people all too often look for reasons to find things offensive. You're dealing with a pseudo sport where angles are formed and storylines progressed oftentimes by wrestlers feigning injury. If Chyna broke was suppose to look like she broke her neck and Rikishi and Too Cool started dancing as she got stretchered out it wouldnt look too good or be too believable. If Jim Ross started chanting ECW ECW ECW!!! it'd be a laughing gag.
I hope people can differentiate reality from wrestling. And that Jim Ross saying Owen Hart died is an a different scale than saying Chyna was injured. If they came out and said Chyna was dead it'd be in poor taste.
