This probably doesn't need to be said but let this be the last thing mentioned about Joey's comments tonight considering what they were.
If you want to know the context, look it up or ask someone to PM you about them.

I have no idea what Joey Styles said, but I'm happy that they fired him. Stupid beliefs aside, the man has never been any good.

This all seems like a bit of an overreaction.
I don't think much of the joke for how old the reference is. But going by some of the reactions going around you'd think he'd the one who'd originated it.

Joey. Joey.
You are supposed to just work a work. Not work yourself into a shoot. Hell, you went beyond that, jack. You worked yourself out of a job.

He got what he deserved and I hope it flat-out ruins what is left of his career.

But it wasn't a direct joke about sexual assault, it was a joke about someone saying some really shitty things about how he views women. It's not like he compared the ring announcer to any of the women who have comer forward, or anything like that. Gabe has every right to fire him if he told him not to talk about these things. But the fact he once again had to act like a baby on Twitter over it is the problem and why I disagree with how Joey's being presented in all of this. He said something dumb, so have I, so have you, so has everyone else. He's been fired over it, it's done. There's no reason to try and make a bigger issue out of it than it is.

But you know what they say about opinions. They're onions with and extra "i" and "p" in them. Or something like that.

EVOLVE 72 results from 411Mania... {Spoiler}Tony Nese defeated Tommy End
Matt Riddle defeated DUSTIN
Fred Yehi vs. Jason Kincaid: Yehi looked to ground Kincaid early, but Kincaid used a slick escape and then hit a power slam and double stomp. A Blockbuster followed, but then Yehi fired back with stomps. Yehi blocked strikes and then hit charging forearm. Yehi took Kincaid to the mat, worked more stomps. Yehi is so great when he gets pissed off, he has no remorse and is relentless. Tripped up Yehi, and a clothesline and then a sunset flip bomb go the floor, where Yehi was sent to the barricade. Kincaid then followed with the coast to coast dropkick. Kincaid then went to the post and hit the double stomp. Yehi then hit a sick looking vertabreaker. Yehi hit the flatliner and koji clutch. Fred Yehi defeated Jason Kincaid @ 6:30 via submission
Darby Allin Tony Nese vs. Jaka and Chris Dickinson: Dickinson is pissed because Allin recently got a contract, which he has wanted since 2000. He then claims that Allin cannot beat him tonight and claims to be one of the best in the world. Tony Nese arrived; he is who Allin beat to earn his contract. Nese put over Allin for beading a Raw star, and says Dickinson hasn’t beaten anyone. This turned into a tag math, with Dickinson and Jaka taking immediate control. Dickinson then turned Allin inside out with a German suplex. Jaka and Dickinson worked the heat on Allin. Aa Joey Styles made jokes about Dickinson. Dickinson hit the falcon arrow (HE DID THE DEAL!) on Allin. Jaka and Dickinson worked a good bully style heat on the smaller Allin. Jaka sent Nese to the floor so that he couldn’t tag in. Allin fought back and countered a razor’s edge and then Nese got the hot tag. Nese ran wild, taking on both Dickinson and Jaka. Nese then tossed Dickinson into Jaka. Nese then hit a suicide dive.

Pre-match Page said he didn’t care about the match and threatened to leave if ZSJ didn’t calm down. ZSJ told him to bring it and show what he had. ZSJ took Page down right away, and easily out grappled him. ZSJ then worked joint manipulation, trying to remove Page’s arm. Joey Styles is too concerned with masking jokes about Page here, which is becoming annoying. ZSJ is easily out grappling Page. Page looked to fight back, but ZSJ tied him up in the ropes. Page Sent ZSJ to the barricade and they brawled on the floor as Page attacked the previously injured arm. Back in the ring, Page kept attacking the arm, but ZSJ kept fighting back as Page focused on the arm attack.

Chris Hero vs. Tracy Williams: Williams attacked with suplexes as Hero was making his entrance. Great aggressive start by Williams, looking to get revenge for Hero previously knocking him out. This has a great vibe early, with both guys beating the hell out of each other and then hitting A dive. Hero hit a sick looking cravat suplex to take control. Hero then started work elbows, Williams battled back with forearm strikes as Hero hit the bicycle kick. Hero sent Williams to the barricade, and back in Hero tried to decapitate Williams with a rolling elbow Williams fired up and hit the dropkick off the second rope. The brainbuster followed for a close two. Williams attacked with forearm strikes and chops, and then the double under hook superplex into the cross face. Williams continued to try and strike with Hero as they are brutalizing each other. Rolling elbow by Hero, but Williams gets a German for a near fall. Hero teased a piledriver, Williams with a sunset flip and Hero countered with the Gotch piledriver, buy Williams kicked out at 2. Elbows by Hero followed as Williams fought to stay on his feet. Williams fired up and laid into hero with strikes and pair of big boots. Huge lariat by Williams, but Hero kicks out qt 1. Williams with another lariat and then the crossface and Hero has to tap. Huge win for Williams. Tracy Williams defeated Chris Hero @12:40 via submission
Gulak is dressed in jeans with kneepads ala mid-80’s Dusty Rhodes. Stokely Hathaway arrived and said that Gulak conned his way into this math. Joey Styles tried to shut him up. Joey then made a Trump joke about how Trump would want to grab ring announcer Joanna Rose in the pussy. He Then said that Hathaway’s clients succeeded despite him and did not take him to WWE when they left.
The Squared Circle Of Survival: Champion Timothy Thatcher vs. Drew Gulak : You can win via Pin, KO or submission. They grappled for a bit, Gulak then basically hit a suicide dive to the floor. Thatcher and Gulak brawled on the floor, trading strikes Thatcher finally fired up, delivering forearms and chops to Gulak.

Gulak hit a Germs suplex, which was close to the edge of the ring and Thatcher rolled to the floor. Gulak then untied the canvas in a tribute to Aced and Eights.

Thatcher then posted Gulak, and he continued to remove the canvas bungees, trying Gulak to the post. Hathaway helped Thatcher, and Thatcher laid in a series of forearm and strikes. Thatcher peeled back the ring padding. Gulak finally untied himself, both men back in the ring, which is just exposed wood. Thatcher slammed Gulak, who kicked out at 1. Thatcher locked in the sleeper, Gulak fought to escape, he looks to be reaching for the ropes, gut there aren’t any. Gulak got to his feet and scored with the backdrop suplex. The crowd chanted 20more times as they want to see Thatcher fall. Gulak used his torn shirt to choke out Thatcher, Thatcher again went for the sleeper, which previously finished Gulak. Gulak kept fighting, crawling to the edge of the ring, and rolled both he and Thatcher to the floor. Gulak then started to pull up boards off the ring frame, Thatcher fought ff a suplex, knees followed and then sent Gulak in-between the boards and trapped him, Thatcher then locked in the sleeper again, but Gulak fought to hi feet and hit a stunner.

– Gulak and Catchpoint Closed the show. He was upset he failed as the crowd chanted that they till loved him. he then said her felt catch point was a failure because he failed. Galloway and DUSTIN were there to meet him. Galloway said he traveled for 24 hours to talk with Gulak, and agreed that catchpoint was a failure. He then said Evolve is Bro, then it is a disgrace, just like Riddle was a UFC disgrace. Galloway says he needs to exterminate Matt Riddle. Riddle told him to chill and relax. Galloway was pissed at Riddle, and threw a fit that he traveled all day for that response.

This all seems like a bit of an overreaction. I don't think much of the joke for how old the reference is. But going by some of the reactions going around you'd think he'd the one who'd originated it. I think it's considered bad form to joke about molesting another employee live on air.

FloSlam's response to the Styles situation...
I hope it doesn't take them too long to get the show up. I was at the JAPW show, so I didn't get to watch this tonight. I was hoping to check it out tomorrow.

But going by some of the reactions going around you'd think he'd the one who'd originated it. I think it's considered bad form to joke about molesting another employee live on air. He didn't joke that he would, or was considering it, just referenced that a certain person probably would based on them saying that exact thing. The context of the joke was against that person, not her. Context is key here. If we get angry about this, we ignore the point of why the original thing was so offensive. I.e. intent. One is satire, albeit arguably lacking taste, and the other implies alleged assault. There's no comparison between the two. I'm not asking anyone to like it. But this is not where our anger should be focused.
