(Nothing political obviously)
So what statement or comment has a wrestler made about the WWE or another particular wrestler that really pissed you off or made you just think “yeah, f*** this guy.”
Maybe a Tweet, a Facebook post or a “shoot” comment on a YouTube video or interview. Kevin Nash and his “vanilla midgets” comment about Benoit and Eddie winning the titles. That sort of thing.
What you got?

Ultimate Warrior. Most things he said pre-2014 re-glorifying tbh.

Bill Watts saying that private businesses are well within their rights to refuse black customers if they want. He had some bullshit libertarian/free market reasoning for it but honestly it was just naked racism.

Probably Sunny. Yeah, there's a lot of racism and xenophobia in wrestling. But I don't think anyone actually wanted genocide of billions of people until Sunny.

Vince's tirade against WCW "stars" and its fans on the final Nitro struck me as legitimate gloating and it turned me against WWE and made me despise Vince for years.

Bernarr Macfadden - Pro wrestler who became the first health magazine publisher and later politician (and the guy who got WWWF back into MSG after decades of being banned), displaying his belief in eugenics while replying to the news that his very young daughter - a small child - died of a heart condition:
"It's better she's gone; she only would have disgraced me."

Sabu comes off as either brain damaged or just a really bad person a lot of the time. Maybe both.

Warrior. Saying he was glad Heath Ledger was dead because he had starred in Brokeback Mountain and deserved to die for portraying homosexuality positively. And saying it was Davey Boy Smith’s own fault that he became a drug addict and died young. He was a truly hateful human being, and no retro whitewashing can change that.

Brian Kendrick is a Sandy Hook and a Holocaust denier.
Ronda Rousey is a Sandy Hook denier.
The Bill Watts interview.
And apparently there was a gay wrestler AJ Styles wanted to “heal” back in the day.
Jay Briscoe should never give his opinion about anything ever.

Or making fun off Bobby Heenan’s cancer. Helwig deserved several ass kickings before he croaked.

And mocking people who lost their homes in Hurricane Katrina, and saying nobody should do anything for them, because they were welfare cases before the storm. He may not have used a racial slur like Hogan, but in his article, he used a lot of coded “those kinds of people” language.

Shoot, I'm a Warrior mark, but some of his stuff is indefensible. However, he wasn't saying Ledger deserved to die because he portrayed a gay man, but because he had a small child and was addicted, and thereby not taking his parental responsibilities seriously. He was mocking society at large as Ledger was plastered as "brave" for his film roles, but that is nothing compared to a soldier dodging bullets in Afghanistan so an actor should not be martyred for playing gay. Yeah, none of it is much better, but sometimes wonder if Warrior didn't know how to articulate what he wanted to say without coming off as nasty.

Like Bruce Prichard said, other than an insincere typical “rip” tweet, not one of his contemporaries was sad when he croaked.

Yeah, definitely Warrior.
His post death lionisation by WWE is detestable.
