Trish Stratus "Bark Like A Dog." If even, at-the-time, a horny, hormonal 15 year old with no sense of his own privilege can watch a segment involving a gorgeous woman in her underwear and tell you "this is wrong," you f***ed up. I mean, that was kind of the point, to get sympathy for a face turn on what had been a character who had done basically nothing face-ish for her entire tenure, but that doesn't make it not disturbing, especially because the audience was so complicit in it.

Watching the segments where Southpaw characters got put on TV made me a stronger person through pure trial by fire Ugh. It is definitely one of those things which COULD have maybe worked, but they really didn't do it any favors in execution, along with just assuming fans would be familiar, and furthermore that they'd go for it.

And then last month, Impact goes ahead and does a Southpaw show better than WWE ever could have dreamed.

Austin driving a quad bike around the ring was I assume to protect his worn out knees but using something designed for rough terrain on padded wrestling mats made me think of a wimpy kid still needing stabilizers for their bike or an overweight middle aged person skirting around Walmart.
Lacy Evens "sexy" ring gear making her look like Mickey Mouse.
A lot of recent tattoo/hair dye decisions from wrestlers but won't be specific as I'm aware I'm not of the generation that can appreciate it.
Sami Zayn as Vince's "old man shouts at cloud" avatar as we know from social media Zayn is the opposite in real life and that's probably the reason Vince chose him for the role.

Brandi Rhodes Wrestlers attires modeled after Disney/Superhero characters Why they dont have actual matches for the 24/7 title Shelton Benjammins momma Mash up themes like Baron Corbins - just one or the other The "King" gimmick, it worked with Booker T, Seems like Vince thinks that the Goofy king works but it doesnt...Booker was just talented at getting it over AEW Fanboys on twitter - certain element of the fanbase who get defensive on any critisms of it, WWE's aims to gain mainstream publicity.. Luke Harper been seen as a prisioner...im sure the decent paycheck helped and time off to heal up....a decent hand, surprise me some on the iwc think he's going to be the game changer like Austin being released by wcw WWE not allowing those who want a release to go....i could understand if they had value, but the only rumoured one who wanted a release Rusev is the only one who was worth something, Bennett, Revival, SinCara, Ascencsion arent going to be the game changer

I assume this means you won't be referring to Joey Janela as "Jelly Nutella" any further?

When Vince would make out or worse with the women. You can tell it was 100% his idea and refusing it do it likely would have gotten them punished. Disgusting old man.

- Michael Cole on commentary. I’ll just group it all together. He sucks at everything.
- Vince making out with women half his age. Much like saying the N-word without any consequences, he could hide behind “it’s part of the storyline pal!”, as if that made it any less creepy or advantageous for him. Considering he started doing that right when WCW died so there was practically no where else for women to work (and get paid well) in the wrestling industry, it just does not age well in any context.
- Talent that can’t cut promos but are given extensive mic time. I always cringe at this, especially if the lines are so blatantly scripted that they come off like a dialogue in a bad porno.
- Marko Stunt. The embodiment of “you know it’s fake right?”.

The Rock bullying announcers. This sucked for a few reasons. First, Rock was a babyface, and this was totally unnecessary (it would have worked better as a heel). Second, there’s no way to get an angle out of this. Kevin Kelly or Johnthan Coachman were never gonna have matches against The Rock, so what’s the point? Third, it was usually unfunny, just Rock throwing around a bunch of gay jokes at the announcers.
