I don't care if he works for the competition, it's his day off--he bought a ticket with his own money and went on his own time.
Just the other day, I saw a Subway employee at Burger King. It's kinda the same thing.

Damn it, Robbie, why the hell did you go into the crowd during the tapings? And, dammit, TNA, why the hell did you show him on camera and call him out when you obviously knew it'd get him in trouble?

Its also being reported that Shannon Moore and Chavo Guerrero are backstage. So Robbie, Shannon and Chavo can split some of CM Punk's Nuclear HEATZZZZZZZZ Has anywhere reliable reported that they were backstage? I saw Gerweck credit that story to Pwinsider, but it was never reported by them. Like I said in the WWE forum, I wouldn't be surprised if Chavo was backstage to visit the Gooker, but I'd like to see it reported by somewhere a little more reliable first. Correct. I think that if Chavo gets any heat, it will be considerably less than Shannon Moore or Robbie, since Hector is his uncle.

That blows. If they do fire him though, I hope he seeks out an attorney. He didn't do anything wrong. It's like Taker going to MMA fights. God forbid a pro wrestler sports-entertainer wants to go see another wrestling sports-entertainment card event.

Man, I feel so bad for him. I kind of respect him, he really is a fan of pro wrestling if he went to a TNA taping when he wasn't supposed to. I really hope the WWE doesn't fire him.

Yep, it was him. Wow. Way to suck, WWE. And also, that was a bitch move on TNA's part to point him out like that.

Why would you not wear a hat or something? At least attempt to be inconspicuous.

Hey, I mean can you blame Robbie for wanting to be a part of history? This was the first-ever LIVE TNA Impact! And to be fair, he did find about it after reading about it on WWE.com www.wwe.com/inside/industrynews/6735448

Funny how this is the biggest coverage he's ever had since he's been in WWE, and it was on their rival's airtime. Would be very unfair to sack him over it, though.

While it seems petty....
These guys are "Professionals". As a professional, you give up certain things for the sake of your work. That's why professionals get paid so much.
All the guy had to do was listen to management, and he didn't. He gets paid to listen to management.
I can't feel sorry for him if he gets canned.
There are a lot of seemingly innocent things I can't do, but then again, I get paid to not do those things in a sence. So do professional wrestlers.
If you can't be "bothered" to listen to management, even if you think they are just being petty... well, good luck no longer being paid.

I didnt even know who it was until I got on the board this morning. He wont get fired for the very fact that the WWE doesnt even think of TNA as a ligitimate threat.

When I saw this headline I figured it was the Highlander who was injured seen at TNA Impact. Has anywhere reliable reported that they were backstage? I saw Gerweck credit that story to Pwinsider, but it was never reported by them. Like I said in the WWE forum, I wouldn't be surprised if Chavo was backstage to visit the Gooker, but I'd like to see it reported by somewhere a little more reliable first. Correct. I think that if Chavo gets any heat, it will be considerably less than Shannon Moore or Robbie, since Hector is his uncle. The WWE fired a woman for being pregnant. They can easily fire a guy for visiting his uncle on an opposing wrestling TV show. And technically, can't Vince fire US the fans for watching TNA Impact? He's fired us before....

I think it is wrong on both companies part to continue this. It is wrong for WWE to bar their superstars from talking to TNA talent as you know several of the TNA talent and WWE talent rosters have very close relationships (it would be like your boy/girlfriend telling you to never see any of your friends again) and TNA should not have shown Robbie being in the crowd (only doing it as a way to take a cheap shot at the WWE by bragging that one of their performers is watching there show because how do we know he didnt just go to the show to celebrate a special occasion with someone he knows).

He might have been, but it was a WWE guy watching a TNA TV show and no matter how petty it is, he shouldn't have done that. If it were a house show,it would be different as no one sees it but the people in attendance. It sucks, but those are the rules they implemented.

I agree. Both companies should stop being so petty. The WWE shouldnt care what their guys do as long as its not harming anyone. It just shows they care about TNA which in the past they have tried to act like TNA is no kind of compition. TNA should stop trying to compete with the WWE every chance they get. Didnt they learn anything from WCW? Just concentrate on YOUR own company!
