I don't think the dick flip move is sexual assault? If it was wouldn't it be sexual assault on Joey? I guess it could be a metaphorical sexual assault of the power of having a dick and the patriarchy or something but I don't feel like Joey thinks that much? I'm confused.

I guess it depends on whether he's making the opponent touch his dick or the opponent is attacking his dick on their own and he's fighting back, which I would assume varies by instance of the spot

It may not be as overt but Reddit has to have the most racists per capita on the internet. Sqaured Circle cannot discuss a black wrestler without condescending. So many times there black adults are referred to as "acting like children". Not to mention the constant "I'll say racist poo poo but it's ok because i'm impersonating Vince McMahon" bits they do. I really hate reddit people in general, just that smarmy, white, dude who works in low level IT that thinks they know everything, in their 30s but engaging in nothing but children's entertainment, that constant sense of entitlement people at that site have. I've been a wrestling fan on the internet since like 1998, I have never seen a more annoying community than squared circle.

You don't find anything at all weird about a man or woman being forced to touch his dick while the crowd chants "touch his dick?"

I mean, there's definitely something "weird" about it but I dunno. Like that seems like its verging into the idea that he's "the patriarchy" and the crowd is society pushing people to do something they don't want to do. And I just don't think Joey Ryan is really that deep. And most cases I've seen the opponent is in the heel role grabbing Joey's dick as a cheap move or to prove they're stronger. Mostly I think Joey is just an idiot who wanted to "Hulk Up" with his dick.

Like the bronco buster is sexual assault. The stinkface is... well assault of some kind if not sexual. That popular clip where Jushin Liger stuck his finger in someone's butt and then 8 other people followed suit seems like sexual assault. Austin Aries driving his crotch into Christy Hemme's face is sexual assault. If Joey was driving his crotch into people then yeah, ok, and maybe there's variations of that I haven't seen. But mostly the move's "logic" seems to be that his opponent is the heel trying to get a cheap advantage and his dick turns the tables.


But like... I'm open to hearing that I'm just missing it. I'm legitimately unsure and never even considered that until now and wondering if that's on me or not.

This is a really weird way to go when my point was pretty much "Why do people act like Joey has never done anything ever?" like, he sucks in a lot of ways but was also a founder of PWG. You can not like him, I stopped being much of a fan a few years ago, but he's always going to have an important place in wrestling history.

I think that was Candice LeRae's counter/complementary move? Or he might have done that to her or Laura James? I'm not sure.

Joey's kind of got the misfortune of still being the last of the PWG founders still active. Bosh and Lost are who knows where. Disco Machine is long gone. Dragon is like an urban legend. Excalibur is a beloved announcer. Joey Ryan's still plugging along successfully giving tons of stuff for people to get mad or annoyed by and forget what he did 20 years ago.

I do agree Joey is probably one of the more impactful and historically significant wrestlers of his generation in the same way Colt Cabana or Christopher Daniels are. But I think those are two other guys who have hung around long enough for some people to get annoyed by (Colt) or see them get old (CD).

Yeah, and that makes sense. I absolutely understand why people don't like him, he's a skeevy dude who constantly slides back and forth across that line of "sex positive" and "weird creep". There is just a lot of space between the Jim Cornette fan acting like Joey has never done anything ever and the actual reality. I also don't think a Cornette fan takes offense at Joey being a creep. Especially when Joey is defending Becky and telling Jim to pound sand.

Joey Ryan and Sienna talk about consent during a match: https://youtu.be/HpgQ3NYAFQI

I’ve never heard any of the women who have worked with him say anything negative about him, and that includes women like Ivelisse and Taya who aren’t shy about speaking their minds. He also frequently responds to twitter trolls calling the dick flip stuff gay with “what’s wrong with being gay?”

Joey is the heel a lot of the time but in those cases the face usually accidentally stumbles into it or goes for it as a test of strength. But you’re basically right about the hulk up with his dick part, although it wasn’t even something he came up with. I’m sure most have heard this story, but it was originally a spot Danshoku Dino told him to do to play off the stereotype in Japan that Americans have big dicks. Then the spot went viral and Joey ran with it, not even expecting it to last. He did an interview about it here: https://411mania.com/wrestling/joey-ryan-details-the-origin-of-his-penis-flip-and-how-it-went-viral-talks-treating-it-seriously-in-the-ring/

Joey’s gimmick is questionable in this day and age but I wouldn’t lump him in with a slime like Cornette.

Above all else there is no question that Joey Ryan is a dweeb.

But wrestling has its fair share of dweebs. Some of my favorite wrestlers are dweebs. Joey Ryan isn't one of them but I don't REALLY think he's a sexual predator or scumbag either. Just a dweeb who doesn't really get that just acknowledging that its "sleazy" won't make it ok with everyone.

Nah, Boobplex is a Joey Ryan move. Candice' preferred genitalia-based suplex was the Ballsplex (or Double Ballsplex when wrestling the Bucks).

Joey Ryan is dumb, the dickflip is dumb. Even if he asks every wrestler before doing the move, it's still borderline abuse because there will often be a power imbalance at play. Especially at Bar Wrestling, but in any podunk indy where he's the bigger name. But, when it comes to Joey Ryan vs Jim Cornette, just dick flip cornet into a volcano that guy is the loving worst.

It's wrestling. You're getting dick and rear end in your face and grabbing it and being grabbed anyway. Like if we're calling the dick flip "borderline assault" then every single gorilla press slam is the same. So is half the poo poo Taguichi does or any other wrestler who has moves that hit you with their rear end.

E: wait till you see where the other guys junk is when you do a powerbomb.

That’s my take on it as well. Don’t see how the dick flip approaches assault more than any other move where there’s dick or rear end contact.
