Oh and BTW, 18 is less than 4th of Flair's age. I wonder how his conversation is like with Jerry Lawler. The first thing that came to mind is thar Bilie Starkz only recently turned 19. Just makes it extra scuzzy to think he delivers that promo and then passes her backstage. not that 18/19 makes any diffirence in the skeeziness but she is not quite 19 yet (think she is 19 this month)

JD McDonagh commented on the post defending Ric. Man. You think you know a guy. Not really. JD has some very serious allegations against him as well. There is a reason why he is called JD McDontGoogleMe by Kevin Owens. Hell I am pretty sure the only reason JD is employed is because Finn and HBK like him for whatever reason. I think you need to adjust your sarcasm detector.

The Jericho bit is killing me. It's David Attenborough narrating Planet Earth about the wonders of nature then going on Twitter like "Climate Change is a hoax dude. Don't listen to Big Brother. DRILL BABY DRILL"

can you all leave the poor sex offender alone you are hurting his feelings? but seriously f*** the likes of Miro, it feels like every week a female wrestler comes forward about people still in the business and things like the male wrestlers standing by the likes of Ric will potentially discourage many to come forward in the future. And its not just low level guys it's legends too. Really disappointed but expected. This is the same business that let Buck Zumholfes daughter get sexually assaulted daily and they didn't lift a finger to stop him. And mostly just made jokes about Grizzly Smith being a diddler.

It's actually impressive how bad an idea this very bad idea has turned out to be.

Hiring Flair and not expecting him to be skeezy is like hiring a fox to guard your hens

Wrestling is like this hardcore exercise in learning that even the people we love and enjoy the most are still fully capable of letting us down. Feels that way anywhere (YouTube, movies, etc.) these days.

Feels that way anywhere (YouTube, movies, etc.) these days. The truth is, too many people don't feel like they have the social responsibilities that they should.

Feels that way anywhere (YouTube, movies, etc.) these days. It's almost like finding out that in an era where everyone's personal beliefs are far more accessible not everyone is a great person. What this comes down to is wrestlers are going to back a guy they think is on the Mount Rushmore of wrestling. It's really no different than the real mount rushmore if you look into the personal dealings of those folks.

I'm sure most chalk it up to Flair being Flair. Cutting the same ol promo and I'm sure he didn't think saying all women 50 to 70. Of course, if any 18 year old wanted to take the old man up on it that would be perfectly legal by law.
Poor taste? Sure. But he didn't do anything that was against any laws.

People thought Undertaker was like their hero...then they saw some of his real life beliefs.

Now they're a literal matter of life and death.

Now they're a literal matter of life and death. That's true too, a lot has changed in that way. The question I guess is should we care about their beliefs or should we try to separate that from characters they play.

He directed and starred at my favorite movies and still watch to thos day, but would I have a drink with him? Definitely not.

We have to understand that you can be a great performer, actor, athlete etc and still be a completely deplorable person.
