I seriously doubt that people that use "trap" in that fashion are professional wrestlers, or even people that leave their home

It wouldnt even make sense to call Sonny that

The community who uses trap as a slur is more like the people who go to Thailand for sex right? I don’t think that’s common at all. And like Low Desert Punk said that doesn’t even make sense in the context of Sonny Kiss.

The community who uses trap are more really weird internet "incel" shut ins than sex tourists.

I was gonna say that's the kinda thing that's just overblown but maybe people could've thought about the context a bit more to avoid this type of situation...then I realized yeah, what the gently caress, that doesn't even apply to Sonny.

It's being made into something it's not, Drew apologized and the author still isn't happy. It's almost like the point is to be outraged. Also the article faults Beyond for Sonny being a gay panic character when Sonny... just wrestled a normal Sonny match? Sounds homophobic!

Imagine spending so much time online you know this meaning for "trap" but somehow also have never seen an Admiral Ackbar meme.

I'd never heard of this meaning of trap before.

Is there a Henry reply I missed?

But yeah, I had never heard of the whole "Are traps gay?" meme/"trap" as a slur, either, until I watched the Contrapoints video a few months ago. And I had not heard it used or referenced since until this dust-up. It's not something that people are going to organically hear outside of the chan bubble and reporters etc. who cover the extremism beat.

The house of famous Tennessee wrestler Ron Wright (wrestled with his brother Don Wright, they were both really good to their community; Ron died a couple of years ago) burned down days ago. Friends of the family started a Gofundme on July 4

They met their goal last night when Jon Moxley donated five grand https://www.gofundme.com/f/qwhfu-help-sandy-and-her-family

i mean it was a literal trap (the segment) and i don't think the term trap is anywhere close to common parlance that you can assume everyone knows it's a slur so this all seems a bit insanely harsh on a dude who's typically been good on social issues

He has?

Much love to CJ2 for PMing me about this but for a second I got confused as gently caress and saw the names Ron and Don, wrestling family, Tennessee, and thought it was the Harrises for a second and was like Mox noooooo

One of my favorite dumb wrestling stories is that when he was a backyard wrestler, Seth's name was GOD (pretty sure his finisher in ROH was called God's Last Gift).

Kevin Steen told this story on his show and found it to be really funny. He is correct.
