What's amazing about that is, unlike a show like Harry Enfield where he's the man in charge writing the shit and they have final say or Little Britain where Walliams and Lucas planned it for months and are executive producers and the power men went on air and did it, in wrestler when someone blacks up there's about 12 agents, half a dozen writers, a producer, a owner, 50 wrestlers and countless other stooges, as well as the perfomer himself to say "we probably shouldnt", yet they still did it. The blame goes on everybody for letting that shit on air. Edited November 25, 2021 by IANdrewDiceClay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members BomberPat Posted November 25, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 25, 2021 not my place to accept it or otherwise, but that's at least one of the better wrestler apologies I've ever seen, and perhaps the first time that a wrestler has said that they're working on self-improvement and actually quantified what they mean by it. Bonus points for not signing off with his gimmick name, even when his real name is more stupid, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That picture of Billy in Impact Wrestling that Ian posted isn't doing him any favours either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted November 25, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 25, 2021 Billy Gunn really should have went into acting for the amount of shit they've asked him to do and he's simply went along with it not caring who it offends. He's blacked up, he's do a gay wedding angle which resulted in GLAAD supporting them, only to end up with a gay bashing "we arent gay!" pay off. He'll do anything he's asked, I'll give him that.

Paid Members Nick James Posted November 25, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 25, 2021 To be fair to Austin as well, he seems to have come straight out and held his hands up, not after a few days or after a lot of calls for an apology, he's done it right away. As BomberPat said, not my place to accept, but that shows a lot more growth than most within the wrestling sphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Houchen Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 There was a UK wrestler called Kyle Ashmore(?) on Pointless. I take it he’s not a nonce or that could’ve been awkward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted November 26, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted November 26, 2021 (edited) Yeah I've seen him wrestle a few times. His gimmick is that he has a beard. Seems alright though. Edited November 26, 2021 by LaGoosh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should’ve stuck to just wearing a “Disney are killing cinema” T-shirt and delivering a promo in a nasally Mancunian vernacular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
