Not good timing. Could this be why he was not renewed? Also. Could this end his WWE return? Literally my first thought when I read the thread title. "Oh, so that's why he came crawling back back to WWE." Yeah, don't be surprised if he's gone soon. They only barely dodged the PR nightmares Swann and Amore could've been, and if the culture is as bad at WWE as it is at ESPN, he might have harassed women there as well. And that is not a floodgate the McMahons want opened.

Everyone bringing up the, "He only asked about instruments!" thing seems to be ignoring this part - Every one of these threads always has to have a gross comment diminishing the accusations.

Everyone bringing up the, "He only asked about instruments!" thing seems to be ignoring this part - I mean sure but it sounds pretty circumstantial, "oh a girl in the office said this when compiling a list of men she didn't like". Her experience is that he text her about music, she asked her to stop basically.. And he did. Edit :Just re-read it all properly. Yeah, it's certainly a bit dodgy. I'm not sure how you can name someone in a sexual harrassment case if they did nothing to you though? Hearing stories from other people doesn't mean you went through it. Forgive me if I'm being naive. I've recently been going through, well, nothing like this but I've had a lot of lies going around about me and its damaged me and my family, so I'm a bit quick to lash out in these situations.

Dude, Coach left her alone when she said she had a boyfriend. I mean, isn’t that just how it goes? You show interest in someone, they don’t reciprocate, you keep it moving. That is called being single, not sexual harassment. This is some bullshit.

It’s worth noting that in this lawsuit the plantiff claims that Jemele Hill told her that Chris Berman left her a racist voicemail, and Jemele has already come out and said that that is bullshit. This Coach thing could be true, but “she was told by others that Coach is a predator” can easily be questioned if someone she referenced has already said she created some misinformation.

Coach about to get shitcanned. WWE doesn’t want anyone snooping around their own sexual harassment.

"Show up to get down!" may be the last words we hear from Coach
Mercifully.

I read this and then looked up at my television as Cole, Graves, and Coach were paying tribute to Women's History Month on RAW.

So according to whats written Coach has:
Shown interest in a girl and when she made it clear she had a boyfriend he completely stopped talking to her (not illegal at all and at worst its a little underhanded since he offered her mentorship and expected something in return).
Sent photos and text messages to a girl which she found inappropriate (without knowing the content it could be at best unprofessional and at worst harassment).
Complimented a girl on her looks and "made several passes at her" (again without knowing content it's hard to say but again this could at best be unprofessional and at worse harassment).
People taking sides with so little information being given just seems like dog piling. I'm gonna stay neutral until more info comes out. Doesn't look good for Coach though since this is a hot topic issue and if women were telling each other to watch out for him then that at the very least shows it's something he's done a fait bit.
I'm on mobile so I may have missed a detail or two. Feel free to correct me but with this being so vague I feel uncomfortable with both sides jumping to all these conclusions. I feel as a society we judge people far too quick and with far too little information nowadays.

I feel as a society we judge people far too quick and with far too little information nowadays. Yeah, i don’t want to get too deep into a very dicey and controversial topic here on a wrestling thread, but everyone shouldn’t be surprised if Coach doesn’t get fired by WWE. The Buccigross stuff from the same accuser came out months ago and, frankly, seemed to be unmitigated bullshit. ESPN backed him fully, and that’s what seems to have sort of led to this lawsuit. Adrienne Lawrence is a very, very, VERY bitter ex-ESPN employee. The #metoo movement is a powerful, often necessary, thing, but if the worst thing Coach did was rescind an offer to mentor somebody because she told him she had a boyfriend that’s really not sexual harassment.

No but seriously. I'm super f***ing shocked a guy that came up in WWE and learned a lot from Vince McMahon doesn't treat women in the best way. Super shocked.

She also tried saying that Jemelle Hill told her that Chris Berman left a racist voicemail on her work number and Jemelle has already came out and refuted the claim.... So a whole pitcher of salt may be necessary while reading this story....

Certainly hope this isn't true, but if it is and we get Booker back, I'm not about to complain. I don't even care what nonsense he says, he sounded genuine and seemed to be having actual fun, unlike Colebot and Gravesbot running the latest version of enthusiasm.exe (now with 300% more buzzwords).
