Guess we know Terry's next appearance. As with the last one, I'm not watching this show. Who knows what buffoonery will come from it. At first I was like "the f*** does Terry Funk have to do with Saudi Arabia?" Then my brain caught up. Anyway, I don't think there's anything people can do besides cancelling subscriptions, etc. They're tied into to some shit now and they're not getting out for a while. MBS: The f*** you mean Terry Funk is no longer in the company? Who do I have to kill to have Terry Funk here?

WWE just can’t help tripping over their own ****s, can they?

Ok, has anybody realized that if the Saudis want nostalgia acts, we could literally see a rematch of Undertaker vs. Jake the Snake?
And Jake would probably have to carry Taker.

GREATEST MONEY IN THE BANK! Three briefcases, one with a title shot, one with actual money in it and the third... well, you'll have to go out on a limb and try and get the other two.

Fans of WWE should know who Vince is. At this point either stop acting outraged when stuff like this happens and accept the company for what it is, or stop giving them money and/or your time. Those are really the only two options. Vince isn’t going to stop a lucrative business agreement due to offended Tweets so it is what it is. This. I long ago resolved to let WWE be my one ethical blind spot. It's in my blood now. I can't not watch WWE, and a lot of bad shit has ended up coming out about a lot of people I liked before. On some level I knew wrestling was shitty as an industry from an early stage as a fan and I've made peace with it. Honestly to make the point clearer would require breaking the forum rules, but yeah. It's WWE, mang. Love it or leave it, and either is a good option, and a lot more people probably should be leaving it.

Or they get late '00s TNA reruns and become fixated on Feast or Fired, demanding WWE even follow through on how they work work wrestlers and shoot fire them with the pink slip briefcase.

What was the reaction like when WCW ran a show in North Korea? Was there this level of protest and controversy among the fans?

Let's face it, Vince would have held WrestleMania in Berlin in 1944 if Hitler had paid him enough. "Herman Goerring woooooooowwwwwww" "Talk about a night on the town!"

Man,I just fear one Wrestlers says the wrong thing in the wrong place and gets locked up.10 years is very possible that to happen.

Lawler said there's a long list of very specific rules that they're given to avoid any hubbub. On his podcast he went over some of the list but then at the end of the document it said specifically not to share any of it so he asked his cohost to edit out the whole discussion before the episode went up.

WWE fans have pretty much always held the company under more scrutiny than most promotions, as well they should, but while I am sure some people complained, I can't picture most WCW fans feeling one way or another about the show, barring any who might be bummed out to not see Inoki versus Flair, maybe.

We do still have a no politics rule, and there's still a line of decency we'd like to not cross, so yeah, please tone it down.
