Racism is bigotry confirmed
Racistness is when it's not entirely certain

Oh come on. Triple H's racist tendencies are completely unintentional. They're just as unintentional as Punk getting fired on his wedding day. Just utterly unintentional. Ah yes, the grand conspiracy against CM Christ Jesus Punk Walking Dead Enthusiast Phil Brooks. Definitely not just timing issues with FedEx. No siree, it's that evil Vince McMahon up to his evil shenanigans.

Because the one-time leader of D-Generation X would never use any sort of racial or sexual slurs...between the hours of 9 and 10pm (ET).

Just so we're clear there should be a Bumblebee Man gimmick right?
JBL: Yeah, I know I'm on. But I don't care. I don't do commentary until I get my danish Maggle. Go ahead, try to find a replacement Maggle
JBL is shoved out of his chair by Bumblebee Man, who grabs the notes. Bumblebee Man speaks in his normal voice, which is sonorous and fits rather well for newscasting.
Bumblebee Man{normal voice}: Tonight on RAW John Cena will take on Dean Ambrose to decide who becomes the #1 contender to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship held by Brock Lesnar.
Bumblebee Man{Bumblebee Man voice}: Ay, chihuahua! Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Funny that people are JUST NOW realizing that all of the people running the WWE are human garbage.

The Punk thing I mean I'm not a big Punk follower/apologist and even I agree with Punk when he said that the apology was a publicity stunt.

I like how some are assuming that Vince knew the date of Punk and AJ getting married when it came as a surprise of them getting married.

Maybe he shouldn't dress like a bumblebee, bitch.
A bunch of points to anyone who gets the reference.

It'd be pretty tough to imagine that AJ told nobody about the wedding, but I can't see Vince/HHH asking around about it without AJ/Punk finding out. Maybe it was just a horribly timed coincidence.

That's exactly what is; a coincidence and people are trying to pass it off as if it was intentional.

There was the whole Triple H texting Punk a couple days before to talk and Punk telling him that he couldn't talk because his wedding was in a few days and he was finishing his wedding and honeymoon prep. Plus I really doubt that AJ took all that time off without talking to either of them. So I really doubt any coincidence.

I just don't see what purposefully sending termination papers on someone's wedding day really does for you as a business aside from just burning bridges. Wouldn't someone in WWE figure that if the story ever got out, that it'd mean terrible PR for them when they really don't need it? Not that it'd be surprising for Vince/HHH/whoever to do something so petty (we all know they're capable of being petty), but I don't know.

Yeah, they knew AJ was taking time off for her wedding but did they know the exact day? Did Punk really mention the exact day in his call with Triple H?
I mean, he wanted out, so they sent his termination papers. Isn't that what he wanted?

Triple H strikes me as guy who isn't really "racist" but makes insensitive racial remarks and thinks everyone should just put up with it because he's just joking around. Where I live, I see it every single day. And takes joy in the fact that he gets away with it. Sort of like Miley Cyrus who love to shock and watching people react to it.

Since when has WWE ever cared about bad publicity other than wrestlers dying on their watch?
