The Wrestling Thread: WWE WrestleMania 31 [NSFW]

[Johnny Ryall]

Bit of a heated review a raw this week.

John 'I'm offended by everything' Pollock was always going to come down on that side.

He's right though.

Yes i agree with John. Mark Madden is a knob though.

[KK]

I'd go as far to say Mark Madden is my least favourite commentator of all time.

[Drumstick]

I would also be inclined to agree, KK.

I decided to watch the Raw opening. Summer Rae is the new hottest diva. The thread needs an entire page dedicated to her.

Yeah, knew that'd be the divide. Although towards the end I think Wai was making barely any sense.

[Drumstick]

To me it just sounded like Wai was trying to wind John up because he knows that everyone loves angry John.

[captain red dog]

I love AJ's submission.

Having been contacted by Mark Madden, David Schwarz (The Senior Vice President of Communications for Spike TV) has issued the following:

We have a zero tolerance policy for sexual harassment. We discussed [the incident] with our partner. [Aries is] being disciplined. I’m trying to get more information on what action is being taken. Dixie Carter took this very personally. He will be disciplined. Again, we have a zero tolerance policy for sexual harassment. I’m not sure specifically how [the discipline] will be handled. To what extent, I don’t know. This is certainly something we don’t condone and don’t tolerate. Such behavior is not welcome. I think that a statement of some sort will be coming. That’s being worked out. But immediate action will be taken.

[Dark Ritual]

Need to work on their PR a bit more.

Yeah, but I sort of agree with him. He was saying that AA didn't mean it, he was only playing a character. And it wasn't too extreme because he didn't actually touch her.

However that is a really bad idea when your boss is a woman.

He's not, though. He said she was upset when she actually wasn't.

What? He was making perfect sense.

John was the guy who basically kept changing the scenario by saying 'what if he grabbed her and...'

That's why Wai was getting annoyed. He said as soon as hands are laid on a person, it's completely different, yet Pollock continued with his stupid scenarios.

I thought Wai was off the mark with the whole "Oh, but he's being a heel, so it's okay!" argument personally. I think it had gone past being his character and more that he was pissed at Hemme and acted like a child about it. It was a stupid thing to do and I think someone should at least have some sort of reprimand for it. (Although being fired would be too far)

In short, Aries needs to have word with himself.

[Zellery]

I would have agreed with you if Hemme hadn't burst out laughing when he put his crotch in her face.

[Dark Ritual]

She does laugh when he first goes up, but it seems to stop. Hard to tell, have not seen it in HQ. Besides, Aries was fortunate that she happened to not freak out. For all he knew, she could have reacted really badly. He didn't know how she would feel until afterwards.

So Abyss has been missing for however long and Hogan manages to just get hold of him on the phone? I know he's shown up but he's then disappeared again.

[Prototype]

Raw was AWFUL.

For all you know, they could be really close and good friends. Like you said. No one really knows but them.

We'll see. If TNA are taking action, maybe more will come out. But I still think that unless it was cleared first, it's not a thing people should be doing, which I don't think is an unfair comment.
