Already deleted after a quick and massive uproar. Greg Price is behind the account, BTW.

Is this account affiliated with the official NWA?
If so man that company really is on the verge of completel collapse.

Ok, at least it isn't sinking NWA itself further Still, yikes, how did the poster think that'd go over well? Talk about not reading a room... |

Now, I highly doubt Billy Corgan really gives a shit since he hired Dave Lasagna to do production for the NWA and all, but I wouldn't mind have another laugh at this asshole's expense. |

Like with the UK promotion calling all these reports lies; the people who immediately jump out very loudly to bury the story with stuff like this are typically scared abusers afraid their number's up next. Which isn't to say Greg Price is one, but he sure did say pretty much the worst, most sexist thing possible to expose his views on consent in the most blatant way.

Typical invalidating and victim-blaming bullshit.

The account's tweets are now "protected."
Imagine having an "private" account with 13.8K Followers.
"Hey bucko, that was classified private information only for my eyes and the eyes of a select group of my 13,800 closest friends!"

That is just despicable, plain and simple. The account's tweets are now "protected." Imagine having an "private" account with 13.8K Followers. "Hey bucko, that was classified private information only for my eyes and the eyes of a select group of my 13,800 closest friends!" It happens, Graham Linehan's gone private multiple times after some of his takes, though he lacks the shame to even bother anymore. |

I mean its a good way to remind us why these victims felt so terrified of speaking out in the first place. Also a good reminder of what it would have been like to have to deal with this stuff in the heyday of territory wrestling

Not really affiliated with Billy Corgan's NWA. Greg Price has run the NWA Legends Fan Fest for many years. Many big names have been part of these over the years. Lance Storm said he would never appear at his convention again.

Price hasn't even held that event in years. Someone else stepped in to start one up after Price stopped doing it, calling it The Gathering since Price used the NWA Legends and Mid-Atlantic Legends names for his conventions.
Sadly, there will be a lot of guys who will think this crap is cool because they did it "back in my day," even though it was wrong then too.

If the stories featuring criminal abuse of fans told in shoot interviews are anything to go by, the owner of a convention featuring those guys has likely heard ten times worse. This sounds like someone who fully expects people he considers friends to start getting arrested if the ball keeps rolling in the direction it has been so is trying to blame and shame as many potential victims as possible in the hope they won't come forward.
