I'm actually wondering if he said "Ninja" since that's a ICP thing, and it sounded like the N word?

Racism in wrestling (but mostly WWE) thread
- Thread starter Cackling Co Pilot Kamala
- Start date
Mauro has been very very open about the fact that he has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Hell, there was a whole documentary about his whole struggle dealing with it. Of course people are going to be more understanding towards that person versus someone who’s condition is more unknown and has been much more combative to the public in response to criticism about his actions. Simply boiling it down to “one has been treated better because one is white and one is black” is disingenuous and ignoring a lot of other factors.

Also I feel like we should clarify that mental illness (or being developmentally disabled like Super Humman) is not an excuse for being a racist.
(and afaik Mauro has never said anything racist. And as of right now, we only have anecdotal evidence Super Humman was racist. Whoop whoop?)

All of the people I know personally who love Super Humman are super woke leftist people which is just mind boggling.
Do they think watching a developmentally disabled juggalo injure himself helps the #Resistance? idk

I mean, better than saying the n word but it's literally just a weasel word for it.
As far as the latest posts about ACH/Mauro, ACH and Mauro aren't dead on comparisons obviously but there has clearly been a lot of racism in the way ACH has been treated. You just have to look at his twitter and the way people (including this thread!) have compared him to Antonio Brown. I agree that Mauro being more open about his problems makes a difference and that ACH's problems don't excuse his own comments.

This whole ACH episode is just sad.
Whatever state of his mental health is I hope he just takes a deep breath and takes a step back for a moment (at least from social media). Cause he had opportunity to start some important conversations but it seems like it's been disrupted (for time being, at least) by him overfeeding the trolls.
My worst fear is that he's blackballing himself from the industry. Hey. If he genuinely never wants to work again. TOTALLY understood but this weekend, it just seems like he's saying a lot of stuff without thinking it through.

TBF I couldn't pick either of them out of a lineup. I barely remember Lena Yeda and don't remember Angela Fong at all

I have the July 3rd, 1989 Primetime Wrestling on as background noise. And Bobby Heenan pointed at Gorilla Monsoon's plush stuffed gorilla and said "Give me your Koko B. Ware doll!"

Donald Dump or whatever
Triple H would want to remove all of his 1998 stuff from the network.

So much for retirement. Also note Shlak is there.

This is going to lead to Miz going over Big E in a feud, isn't it?

Just when I thought they couldn't make Retribution worse. They made the Muslim guy the head of the Antifa terrorist stable.

More and more, I think the most woke moment in pro wrestling history is when Ricky Steamboat gave Ron Killings a title shot because he understood what systemic racism was. That was back in 2002.

Wooooooooooooooowwww. I guess it is not a huge surprise Garrett Bischoff is a racist but I am surprised he is so flagrant about it.
PWTees I doubt is racist but they REALLY need to do a better job of vetting. This isn’t the first time they have allowed extremely racist shirts to be uploaded

Controversial Booker T – Triple H Segment Pulled From A&E Biography? - Wrestling Inc.
The controversial Booker T vs. Triple H feud was not featured on Booker T's A&E's Biography series, but there was an effort to include it.

It doesn't say WWE made them cut it. He talked about it as part of his interview and it was cut. Segments and entire experts get cut from shows all the time. I'm not saying WWE didn't pressure them to cut it but he even says he doesn't know why it isn't in. If a and e wanted it in it would be in, just look at all the brutal shit in the Savage episode.
