You’re telling me Peter Parker is ...... Spider-man!?

Thauros posted:

This was taken from a message board and not directly from his twitter so I can't be 100% certain of its veracity, but here's the 2011 tweet I was thinking of.


They were heels at the time and many people just chalked it up to that.

It did happen and he had this to say with another great Jay comment!

quote:

ROH wrestler Jay Briscoe apologized on Twitter today for insensitive comments he made this past weekend and in June: "I apologize to everyone for my insensitive comments from June and this past weekend. It will not happen again." At the weekend during Hurricane Irene Briscoe tweeted: "To all da hoes, sluts, skanks, he-shes, she-hes and homos that be whorin it up on da eastcoast... this hurricanes for you." In June he wrote: "drat theres a lot of fags out in New York today." Such comments will not go down well with new ROH owners Sinclair Broadcasting.

I don't think Ziggler harbours those feelings towards gay people. Doesn't seem the type unlike Alpha Jock John Cena, Redneck Jay Briscoe and "Slob from New York" Bully Ray.

Edit: Changing "Redneck Jay Lethal" to "Redneck Jay Briscoe". Lethal going from imitating Macho man to a homophobic redneck would be a hell of a transition.

JR recently blogged saying that “I don’t like gay jokes on any wrestling shows.” Do you think there’s a place for gay humor in the industry? What about homosexuality period? Do you think the WWE would everhire an openly gay wrestler and would you be okay with it and what are your views on having a gay fan base?
Not really sure what to answer there, but a fan is a fan, it doesn't matter if they are gay.

Wait wasn't the meme that JR is racist? I guess we can add homophobic on top of it because why not but I thought it always was that he's racist. I think I even remember Hulkamatt telling us to shut up about it because it got a little out of hand eventually.

I honestly don't know if JR is racist or not but I was referring more to the fact JR made his share of jokes about Pat Pattersons homosexuality back in the attitude era. Of course maybe JR has changed his stance since then or since he was making the jokes about a single person he knew and presumably was friendly with, the appropriateness of it exists outside of JR's blanket beliefs about the subject.

Ziggler, unlike AJ Styles, is probably well aware that he's got a decent amount of fans in the gay community and is totally okay with it.

Isn't Sinclair a super right wing company anyway? I seem to remember reading about them funding a lot of hard line Republican poo poo

EDIT: ah yup http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinclair_Broadcast_Group#Political_views

quote:

In April 2004, Sinclair notably forced its ABC affiliates to not air an episode of Nightline that featured a reading of the names of soldiers killed in the 2003 invasion and subsequent occupation of Iraq
[...]
Later in October 2004, just two weeks prior to the 2004 presidential election, it was reported that all 62 of Sinclair's stations would preempt prime time programming to air Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal, a documentary critical of U.S. presidential candidate John Kerry's anti-Vietnam War activism
[...]
In November 2010, it was reported that five Fox affiliates and one ABC affiliate owned by Sinclair broadcast an infomercial critical of President Barack Obama, Breaking Point: 25 Minutes that will Change America, which was sponsored by the National Republican Trust Political Action Group.[35] The infomercial painted Obama as an extremist, and claimed that, during the 2008 presidential campaign, he received some campaign money from the Hamas terrorist group, and that Obama said in a speech, "You want freedom? You’re gonna have to kill some crackers! You gonna have to kill some of those babies."

Depends how much angry feedback they get. Even Fox news apologizes occasionally when one of their on-air people say something out of line, I'd imagine this is no different.

Eh, it's more redneck in PA than white trash...sounds academic, but their is a difference.

Also I doubt he owns as many guns as PA residents (that's a universal thing, not hick vs city), so alas I don't think he'd fit in well.. :smuggo:

I grew up in a "Northern" Midwest state, and I can tell you there were plenty of guys around town that could be placed right into a "long-lost Briscoe Brother" angle without a hitch, Confederate flags and all.
