then people deserve what they get for liking those assholes They're fictional characters. Do you see a problem with finding Dr. Doom or Jason Voorhees entertaining? depends on what they're doing. I find some concepts so wrong that I do dislike the idea of anyone cheering on someone doing those actions. Sort of like Dude, not funny

Del Rio tried to attack Sheamus with a chair but failed. Sheamus was caught with the chair in hand and was DQed! Sheamus takes his anger out on the ref to end the show The ref? Not Del Rio? HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT. So everyone walks out on Laurinaitis, leaving Team Johnny to work Raw until Vince comes out and boots him? Actually, speaking of, they say what Teddy's new job is?

then people deserve what they get for liking those assholes It's a motherf****** TV show. Wishing karma on people who happen to like a specific character on said TV show is just stupid. I want a large black women so wish away.

According to some twitterers, Daniel Bryan's "Yes! Yes! Yes!" chants just broke out out at the Miami Heat game! I love you Miami.

No Sheamus / Bryan interaction, huh? Probably a good call. Though cheating Bryan on a rematch entirely is stupid. Won't solve the problem. Should just give them a proper match and get it over with. this is the stuff that makes it hard for me to believe they're self-aware and that all of this Cena booking has been 100% accidental.

Just remember, they elevated Punk, then brought him back down, then eventually brought him back up. Trust me, I know a lot of very loose casual fans who were intrigued by him winning and gave up again when he dropped the belt 28 days later.
Yeah, WWE can do good things every now and then...but their track record shows more misses than hits.

So I think it's relatively appropriate karma

Bryan gets another huge boost from diehard fans who think he's the poor, put-upon martyr of workrate and indie wrestling being held down by the big bad corporation (and don't think WWE isn't capable of playing off that, because that's the angle they used last summer to elevate Punk into a top star), and the casual fans who don't watch regularly will see the highlights package of Sheamus winning the WHC in seconds and think "Wow, that guy's tough", and a few WWE-edited recaps where he isn't being booed, and they aren't going to waste enough time on wrestling to go online and look at the websites where people are raising a row about this. And in a few weeks (or heck, possibly even by next Monday at this rate, which is when a bunch of new viewers will tune in after hearing about Brock), Sheamus' boos will have blown over anyway. I don't know, I think everyone's coming out of this all right. Nobody is going to think Sheamus is tough for winning an 18 second Mania match. They would think he's tough if he came off badass and won with the Razor's Edge in 15 minutes or so, not a Brogue Kick while Bryan had his back turned. Your constant defending of that move is really over the top.

I don't know, I think everyone's coming out of this all right. Maybe, maybe not. You keep saying they'll be restrained to Florida, but there's no way of knowing that. And it's not like just because they're within the same state means it's the same fans present. Plus, hey, I'm sure they thought the Cena hate would blow over too. I don't think this is impossible to move past, but as said I do think WWE's going to work so hard to overwrite it that they make Sheamus public enemy number one. Just like what happened with Cena, really.

It's one thing to call a girl fat,but Referees have been oppressed for years.End the wrestler on Ref violence!

They're fictional characters. Do you see a problem with finding Dr. Doom or Jason Voorhees entertaining? depends on what they're doing. I find some concepts so wrong that I do dislike the idea of anyone cheering on someone doing those actions. Sort of like Dude, not funny You sound like a really fun guy to be around.

Sort of like Dude, not funny It's a pointless hanger on character that no one cares about, that other heels openly mock and the crowd pops for them mocking her. They even tried to do the abusive boyfriend thing until a bell went off in their heads that it'd probably turn him face.
