It is eating me up that Trips posted WE FIRED THE GUY and immediately wrestling Twitter fell all over him and is probably sending him another fruit basket. Ah yes, this one guy. He's the one who personally saw to every trash bag in the last decade. And the company had NO IDEA until Mickie brought it to light. But now that they're aware, they can get rid of Some Guy and make amends. It's the most blatant PR stunt and ya got SRS out there tap dancing for it. And I like Sean, but drat.

between the 1800s and 1999, wrestling carers were some of the stupidest and most gullible people in the world. but now thanks to the internet they are sharp and catch on to everything

How long has Carrano actually been with WWE? Google is failing me but I thought the lineage of VP Talent Relations basically went JJ Dillon, 1989-1996 Jim Ross, 1996-2004 John Laurinatis, 2004-2012 Triple H, 2012-??? Mark Carrano, ???-2021 John Laurinatis, 2021- Carrano has been around since at least 2013, since he was on the first season of Total Divas in a "Talent Relations" role, but maybe not head of the department? His name sticks out, since everyone else on that list is someone who's had a whole career in wrestling. Where did he come from?

I'm not trying to defend WWE here, I think I'm just missing the obvious answer, but what is the alternative? Just loose in a box? Making Mickie pick the stuff up if she wants it back? Clearly the garbage bag is a bad look but I'm struggling to come up with the ideal solution.

Get some dry cleaning bags (there are enough suits backstage that you can't convince me they don't have any), hell, go down to catering and use some plastic wrap and then just put them in a box.

Plastic wrap is gonna come loose from the item during shipping, not very good protection. A dry cleaning bag seems just right, though, yeah.

The trash bag makes them look cheap and janky, so I wouldn't be surprised if they were just as pissed off about that, if not more so.

gently caress, WWF branded duffel bags would at least look classy and let you influence the talent you just fired into thinking the door is still open for the future if they ever get hot.

This would be good. I still think the dry cleaning bag is the best obviously easily available option, and most appropriate for clothes anyway. The garbage bag, at the very best, is just lazy and thoughtless.

They're a billion dollar company who are just coming off the most profitable year in their history and this year looks be to up there too. ANYTHING would be better than a trash bag.

And apparently it was Mark Carrano's job, former head of Talent Relations, like if it was some poor exhausted intern's job, I'd have sympathy for them just doing it efficiently and getting it over with, but of all people this guy should've been able to put some effort into it.

I mean, at the end of the day it's really about optics. Mickie James is a beloved veteran both in and out of the industry, so you'd think they should at least give her a more graceful departure than the same "throw all your poo poo in a bag" treatment that random undercard geeks get on their release. If, say, Tucker tweeted that same picture it would just get laughs instead of condemnation, but people love Mickie and hated that sign of disrespect, and also her "legend" status means WWE is very interested in not burning a bridge they might have to cross again in the future -- to say nothing about what happens if she shows up on Dynamite in 3 months. I think that's why they went so hard on damage control when they'd normally just ignore it. Benne fucked around with this message at 08:15 on Apr 23, 2021 |

Can't believe the organisation that still employs Kevin Dunn and just hired back the guy who hired women from swimsuit model catalogues would be disrespectful to women. Shocking.

Well, I'm just glad they got rid of the one awful guy in the company and now Talent Relations is run by the dynamic dude who once told AJ Lee "Our male fans want to hang out and play video games with you. But no one wants to have sex with you. Do you see how that’s a problem for us?"

Why would you even rehire the guy who left your developmental to rot for a decade even if you don't care that he's a sexist rear end in a top hat? This company and its continued prosperity is a black eye on humanity and reality as a whole.

Mickey James has quite a legacy. Doing a storyline about being fat without being overweight, doing a storyline about being old (another great alexa bliss feud) while being younger than john cena and aj styles who I think was the champ at the time, then being released and sent a trashbag.
