Sure, Vince or other higher ups, but even the fellow wrestlers probably weren't too torn up about it. They get to not be the bad guy, but if enough of them had a problem with it, it wouldn't have gone on as long as it did.

I’m just glad that even though they may not have really gotten any punishment back then, the truth about most of them does eventually get out, and their reputations have taken a hit. From JBL’s goofy ass getting fired for making fun of a mans mental problems, to Moolah practically being erased from WWE history for her treatment of other females.

JBL at least got his butt kicked a few times, whether it was Stevie Richards stick chair shot, Tracey Smothers laying in some punches or my favorite, Joey Styles knocking him out. Never really hear much about Bob Holly getting comeuppance, but he no longer has a job. As far as Moolah, didn't realize she was erased from WWE history and if she is, it took her a damn long time.

Don't forget Steve Blackman.

She’s pretty much the reason they called that women’s tournament “The May Young Classic”. Ten years ago it would’ve been all about Moolah classic, and probably had jimmy superfly snuka, working as an enforcer referee. I guess the good thing about them becoming a publicly traded company is that they have to worry about the public image a little more.

As far as Snuka is concerned, they had a full blown tribute video to him when he passed that had an incredibly awkward reaction from the crowd. All they had to do was an image. I supposed that is a good point, but it seemed like Moolah and Mae Young were pretty much tied for legacy in the later years, so it wasn't as obvious. Also, I have heard some not so great stories about Mae Young as well.

She also compared the terrorist attacks on 9-11 to her dads steroid case, what can I say.... Steph’s gonna Steph.

The Vader one is more both tbh. The story was Shamrock was very green and this was his first PPV match, and his punches were all connecting. Vader was notably getting angrier and angrier until one punch broke his nose, at which point he hits back with a magnificent clothesline which damn near tears Shamrock in half. The match continues in this vein, but it's more "hey, watch your punches" kid than a Bob Holly v rookie special.

Bob Holly says it was all an accident and not a result of him trying to sandbag Brock during the powerbomb.
