To be fair Snoop Dogg was the saviour of the scene so he'll need to be edited out too. People like him don't win at WrestleMania. When I had that conversation many years ago with former keffer tsve, I posed Koko B Ware vs Butch Reed at Mania 3 as an exception and he replied "That's even worse! Brother vs brother for whitey's entertainment!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BomberPat Posted August 4, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 4, 2023 A friend of mine, who is now a wrestler, once tried to dispute his brother's argument that wrestling was racist. His brother brought up how the WWF made a black guy play a black nationalist, a voodoo witchdoctor and a pimp, and that it was all the same guy. The counterpoint was, "but they made Booker T a King!". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JNLister Posted August 4, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 4, 2023 Is it wrong that when the news broke of the FBI subpoena and search, I immediately assumed they were just checking to see if Trump had given him some classified documents as a souvenir?

SaitoRyo Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 New LA Times piece on the government investigation. Couple of little nuggets in there, like Vince seeing the WWE Board of Directors of an act of disloyalty. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/business/story/2023-09-20/vince-mcmahon-last-stand-wrestling-wwe-sold-endeavor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Carbomb Posted September 21, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted September 21, 2023 Interesting read in places. Didn't know Vince was actually from North Carolina originally. Must've worked to ditch the southern accent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps unsurprisingly 90% of his "I was a real badass, always getting into trouble" stories appear to be BS, but the real revelation is that he did backyarding!

He mentions it at one of the IYH shows when he's on commentary, just blurts out "Pinehurst North Carolina, birthplace of Vince McMahon" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gaffer Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 He mentions it at Unforgiven 98 too I believe, in an in ring promo where he threatens to fire the timekeeper before the main event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
