Is it true Lars Sullivan apparently had a panic attack backstage at Raw last week?

I think it was the previous week, but that's what all the scoopers are saying.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



The rumours were also that he flew home and went no contact when they tried to reach out and Vince got pissed at HHH for pushing to call him up. Who knows though.

I've avoided talking about Lars on here as some people have made their minds up he is/was a racist, no one can seemingly change and thus it isn't worth the bother. Even though many people tell me he really has. All coaches and wrestlers male and female all ethnicities really like him including forum favourites. Some publicly stating so in the past.

Anyway yeah he has a long history of anxiety and depression. The truth is no one really knows what exactly happened two weeks ago in was all kept discrete and behind closed doors. Reporters and those that should know all use the term "radio silent" when it comes to him or they did until late last week at least. Hopefully he shows up at or in the Rumble as a surprise.

Personally lads I believe a gypsy woman cursed Lars with her evil eye. Just unfortunate luck all around that he was caught in an area where they are known to loiter.

i'm really sorry to hear this. i've dealt with anxiety and i know how tough it can be

Yep. Everybody just feels bad for Lars. It is very unfair business to have the situations he deals with. Doubly so with advent of social media.

I'd love there to be less racists in the world, so I admit I'd happily change my mind if he actually did change for the better over the last 3 years and show it

For all the poo poo he said publicly on those accounts, I think it's fair to say him "showing it" has to mean publicly, not just privately

Maybe he should follow his own advice and just realize anxiety isn't a real mental illness and that he's weak.

That's more than fair.

I think he was a clear outsider character looking for attention on a message board. Everyone is entitled to their opinions.Especially if racism hits close to home obviously.

He may have suffered a health setback from trying to face a crowd after his old comments he's embarrassed by got unearthed. But who is to know?

Statements like that to me make it clear he is/was more of unthinking doofus or trying to get a raise on a trolling message board if anything.

EXTREMELY unlikely. This is the woman who put on a ton of weight for her retirement show because she didn't want the fans to be disappointed. Also, at the RISE show she did, her knees looked all kinds of hosed up. I have a tiny hope she might be a candidate for the HOF though...

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

Hell, that'd be a really simple way of dealing with the damp squib that is Carmella coming out at 30.

gently caress, given how lazy WWE are in this kind of booking, I'd wager Cena does it to Truth as well.

Nah, lots of people think that is a 100% true sentiment. For example, my girlfriends mom her entire childhood who refused that her depression and anxiety was real and was instead just her being a cry baby.

There are loads of people who think allergies aren't real because they don't have any.

Never underestimate the lack of empathy people have for other people.

Yeah, when I developed nut allergies in my 20s my own sisters and a few long, close friends like refused to believe me. They somehow seemed to feel I was faking these visceral allergic reactions and just actively choosing to stop eating food I'd enjoyed my entire life and eat at places I loved because I was looking for attention.

Its so weird because it wasn't even a life threatening thing or anything. Just "hey, could you keep the peanuts in a bag or something?" or "Does that have nuts in it?" People can be incredible pricks, even to the people they love. And its super easy when its something "intangible" like allergies or anxiety.
