Yeah, they got fired from ECW after showing Paul E. their SS tattoos.

Because they showed Raven - who's Jewish - their newly inked tats and Raven's immediate response was "what the gently caress - oh wait, I know what I can do about these scumfucks. Go show Paul (whose mom is a Holocaust survivor)!"

Wow. Those Harris Brothers are some real winners. I have heard some really disturbing stories about them over the years. I am kind of surprised that people are actually willing to do business with them.

It's not that surprising. Dick Murdoch was in the KKK and was booked as a big name everywhere for years. Wrestling attracts a lot of scummy people.

My favorite Harris story is Macho Man heard Hogan might be in the area when he did his brief TNA stint in 2004. He was afraid Hogan might try to shoot on him so he had Ron Harris act as his bodyguard.

Don't forget that Dixie Carter also used the Harris Brothers to intimidate TNA production staff that were short paid because TNA couldn't afford to pay them what they were owed. They are complete fuckmen.

I think they produced his album or something? There was some prior relationship from Randys rap career that led to this.

He managed the tour. He was working in country and Christian music at the time. No clue if he was trying to manage Prussian Blue.

I thought the story was that Shlak isn't actually a nazi himself, he just had an unfortunate picture of him doing the heil hitler salute while drinking with skinheads taken years ago?

I mean, yeah, bad look partying with skinheads and doing drunk heil hitler salutes, but if it was before he was even in the wrestling buisness and he has seemingly convincingly to me publicly repudiated any belief in racism, white supremacy, or nazism, should it really cost him bookings?

Especially in an industry with the Harris brothers who haven't repudiated poo poo doing just fine?

oatgan
Jan 15, 2009

shlaks defense of himself was, for hours, refusing to condemn nazis without in the same breath also condemning "anti-nazis" because he doesn't like politics and he's met all kinds of friendly people from all walks of life as a tattoo artist (also he won't deny giving members of the atlantic city skinheads nazi tattoos)

Yeah but still failing to hate Nazis as much as any reasonable people should is still a lot less condemnable than actually being one.

As a traditional skin-head and a SHARP supporter, white power shitheads and their "totally not racist, have you seen my rune tattoo" friends are irritating shitheads. I avoid shaving my head because I don't want to have a conversation with the Racists, or give people the wrong idea about me.

Man, I just like punk rock, suspenders/boots, and Stone Cold. I'm not one of those dweebs.

Why would they even try and get booked for a group where the booker and the top heel are very obviously Jewish? Like, I know they can't be that smart, but like... what makes you think it's a good idea to have your Nazi tats and shirts on display and go to ECW?

So wait Fastlane is a smackdown shown? They're seriously going from October to April with no raw brand PPVs?

Also that five way sounds cool as poo poo.

I hope plans change because I'm so loving sick of four-ways/five-ways/SIX PACK CHALLENGES or whatever the gently caress. It's gotta be WWE's laziest booking crutch in recent memory.
