Well, this sure proved to be a worthwhile investment, TNA.
Also, he sounds like he only just learned what a "mark" is, and is now using the term at every available opportunity.

Predictable response by Bubba. Calls everyone but himself a mark, wants pity for being punched when he was being an a-hole (ignoring that the one punching him got punished for it), and cries double standard when he knowingly made a racially/sexually offensive remark. Hardly warrants a full response, because he knows he's wrong but still wants to argue for the sake of it. Just worth reiterating -- good riddance to bad garbage.

I think the Blubba army have some plan for tonight by reading some Tweets. One of Blubba's minions is sat ringside and Blubba said "Don't puss out". Why do I sense they are gonna try jump into the ring? I rarely...no, I'll correct myself....I NEVER say this...but I hope Hall and Nash are in the ring if that happens. They were never backward in letting the seemingly THOUSANDS of WCW fans who ran into the ring know they had made a mistake. |

As awesome a guy as he is, I'd be willing to bet that if a fan tried to physically assault him Joe would destroy them. |

Long overdue, but good riddance.
I hate when people try to pass off their a-holery when they get called out on it as a joke that no one else was in on. No, it wasn't. You're just an a-hole.

The big question is if TNA will continue letting Hogan appear on Bubba's show. Let's see who means more to Hogan...TNA or Chubba.

Also nice way to say that you are not a biggot with half of those statements. Kong can say racially insensitive things about herself because guess what, there has always been a double standard in that another race cant call you a derogatory name for your race, but your own race can. So when Bubba uses the exact same word in the exact same context that Kong does, Dixie assumes he means it as a racial slur, and that Kong doesn't, solely because he's white? And that's not violating a "zero tolerance for racial insensitivity" policy? I'm certainly not denying your claim that said double standard exists, but I take great umbrage with the claim that this double standard means Bubba's firing was justified. but it wasn't the exact same context at all. kong said "kiss my black ass", with the subtext "i don't like you, by the way here's a dominant part of me as a person (namely race)". bubba said "you dumb, black bitch", with the subtext "i don't like you because you are stupid, a 'bitch' (could be seen as sexist but i personally don't think it is), and black". kong's use of "black" was part of a description/metaphor, bubba's was slap in the the middle of a list of negative attributes. BIG DIFFERENCE. and also, it's ok for black people to make racial insults/humour about black people, because i can probably assume that kong doesn't dislike african americans. however when a white person makes a joke/comment about blacks, there is a suggestion there that black people are inferior. you KNOW that when a black musician uses the n word, they aren't being racist against black people. if a white person uses it, while it doesn't guarantee they are racist, there's nothing to suggest that they aren't. |

I haven't heard this, but supposedly on his radio show, Bubba called Dixie a W**** and accused her of sleeping with all the guys in the locker room.
Needless to say, if he continues TNA might bring a lawsuit against him.

Is it too late to rehire Awesome Kong? Kong has specifically stated that Blubber The Love Spooge was not the reason she left. |

I love this .gif, but I have to ask about the context. What the hell are they so happy about? As a non-regular semi-follower of TNA, I didn't even understand why *cough*Hogan*cough* they brought in Bubba, but once I heard about all the stupid bullshit he was doing behind the scenes, I realized it was time to let him go. Glad the higher-ups at TNA figured it out, too. |

Joe was the unstoppable machine murdering all the X Division guys while Steiner had just recently come into the company. |
