I popped a NWS tag on that link, since as Barreft notes in the replies somebody has posted a nws image, and it's probably not the type of thing you want to have to explain to your Boss.

Yeah it's not really claiming a scoop to say that things are clearly escalating in a pretty sad way. I don't think this story is going to get any better until the point the relationship breaks up for good, and even then it's going to have repercussions for a long time.

Her brother comparing her to Amy Winehouse and Whitney Houston let's you know drugs are most likely in the equation.

I was always bothered here and elsewhere by people waving off the bruises on her body as either Pro Wrestling or MMA sparing related especially during times she wasn't medically cleared to do either and especially in places wrestlers don't typically get bruised in. It is way too common of an occurrence other cases of domestic abuse in the Pro Wrestling industry I've been aware of.

It's not an unreasonable assumption to make, and goes to demonstrate how quick most people are to try and find alternative reasons for bruises rather than consider that actual physical abuse is happening (which is part of the reason people are able to get away with it).

I'm just saying, Rovert doing his usual vagueness shtick is super weird when it's about domestic violence and not wrestlescoops

I don't think he's been particular vague in this case. Regardless, let's not make this about rovert, the issue at hand is a far bigger deal.

People need to be less dismissive of the typical signs of domestic abuse just because of what their profession is.

Solus posted:

People don't tend to want to admit that someone they are friends with / are close with is an abuser/murderer/thief etc because their initial reaction is to think that it would reflect badly on them as a person too. It's a saving face thing in my experience.

:agreed:

It's a far more dramatic situation to be sure, but the recent 10th anniversary thread on the Benoit murders/suicide brought up a lot of similar mental gymnastics stuff that people (including myself) were going through to try and give Benoit some kind of "out" so we wouldn't have to face up to what he did.

Marquis de Pyro posted:

Also, I think it's really loving weird to assume someone is being abused if they have some bruises on them and then act like someone is silently supporting abuse if they don't assume that. I don't think anyone here was thinking "wow, I just love ADR so much I'm going to refuse to face the possibility" given that there have been about 5000 posts about what a stupid rear end in a top hat he is in this very thread.

That's why I said it wasn't an unreasonable assumption to make, but as noted by others closer scrutiny indicates the bruising was inconsistent with most physical training of the type she was undergoing. People tend not to make that closer scrutiny because it's far preferable to imagine abuse isn't happening rather than confront it. It's not a matter or supporting or endorsing ADR, but just preferring not to consider that he's THAT kind of rear end in a top hat as opposed to just being a tremendous gently caress-up.
