Baron La Croix posted:The Melanie Pillman interview is hands down the worst thing in the entire tournament, for me. Easily the grossest thing from a purely ‘creative direction of the tv show’ paradigm. I think letting Owen die due to negligence and taking Saudi money are much worse.

Someone sway me either way on network vs racism because both are equally compelling.

Charles Gnarwin posted:Someone sway me either way on network vs racism because both are equally compelling. Talent lost the PPV money they were contractually obligated and management wouldn't even tell them, then when confronted they claimed there would be meetings that never happened. That's a LOT of money. The racial slurs are really bad and HHH's racism according to Alberto makes other people there think racist jokes are OK but it is just a part of the overall company racism. There's a lot of racism entries! I'm personally voting for racism.

I went with loving over the talent financially yet again this time but building a corporate culture where casual racism is seen as acceptable also really really lovely. There are no winners and we all get to feel lovely for ever giving money to the WWE.

I went with Racism but I'm sure in a few years we can replace the network taking PPV money to the WWE not giving talent any of the money they're going to make from the new TV deals

I thought about it a lot and went with racism because I'm not sure any of the televised racist entries will make it deep in the bracket, but a corporate culture of racism is a lot fuckin worse. The fact that Michael Hayes still has a job (boo hoo you got a demotion) is insane. Jesus what a tough matchup.

I feel like 90s WWF did Domestic Violence Enthusiast angle more than once. Either way, still terrible but the 90s were all about being as terrible human beings as possible.

TV Zombie posted:Between wife beater and beaver cleaver, the headbangers seem like a cursed team. wife beater and beaver cleavage were the same gimmick, beaver cleavage was a "worked shoot" bad gimmick that turned into Chaz the wife beater (except the wife is lying because she's a hoowa)

TheKingslayer posted:Hold up, wasn't it actually Beaver Cleavage? Or am I making that poo poo up? He started out with a faux incest gimmick called Beaver Cleavage where they made a lot of jokes about his "mom" 's body. Then they had him bail on the gimmick on air and he became Chaz a guy from Jersey and it was revealed his "mom" was his girlfriend. I don't remember who played her role, but I think they started a angle where he kept losing and it was basically stated he was blaming her and taking it out on her physically. Then she got caught admitting the truth on GTV, I think. I'm missing stuff, I'm sure.

I think they went the same way with Chuck Palumbo, Motorcycle Enthusiast in the mid 2000's. He feuded with Jamie Noble. Chuck was cool and strong and had a hot gf, Noble was the creepy twerp. But then Chuck became more verbally abusive and Noble became more sympathetic. ThePariah posted:Similar to that, there was also a miscarriage angle with Terri where the twist was that she was never actually pregnant. Russo sure loved his "lying woman" angles. I just thought of a Kevin Dunn/Vince Russo night on the town. Does anybody have a way to get this cursed concept out of my brain?

Also, I really do not give a poo poo about that right now. Thanks WWE, stuck with you my whole life. Some of these things I didn't know, some of them I had to shelve because no ethical consumerism, separate the art from the artist blah blah blah but I'm struggling to think of one good thing your company does that isn't a bald-faced publicity stunt. You'd THINK you would have stumbled upon SOMETHING by accident. Can't even enjoy this anymore. On any level. Just kinda want you to fail and die now.

STAC Goat posted:Yeah, Michelle McCool. There was also the Raw where they made it look like Stephanie was going to get gang-raped by DX in order to distract Test, and the next week it wasn’t even stated “oh we didn’t actually do anything”, they literally said it was just some girl. Like, basically stating “we gang-raped a woman but she’s not a named character so don’t think about it”

This was a windmill slam vote for GRR. GRR could easily walk away with the whole thing for me. Taking money to air propaganda for one of the world's most disgusting governments. The notion that people weren't executed for treason on this one is one of the world's great injustices.
