How about making a character mentally handicapped...

didn't they do an "alcoholic" angle with Hawk who was a real life alcoholic?

Wasn't the first time they did it. Jerry Lawler would routinely mock Jake Roberts with Jim Beam even one time pouring it on him when Roberts made his return from rehab.

Even for pro wrestling, in that the desperate time frame, I still can't really grasp how anyone was okay with that Melanie Pillman segment being handled the way it was, from how it was promoted to how Vince questioned her in it.

It was down there with Mike Von Erich being exploited back in the 80s.

I'm sorry nothing is touching the angle with Tim White. The joke was him killing himself and being depressed. You had wrestlers really offing themselves not too mention regular people and the WWE made it a joke. You have to love Vince for this.


WHAT THE fukk? :mjlol:

here is another insane Tim White skit. This time a shooting in public. You had shootings going on and Vince makes it a skit.


They really turned this into a comedy bit? WWE is a bizarre and confusing company sometimes. :scust:

That Melanie Pillman interview was absolutely disgusting. You could tell she was almost forced to take part in it and for it to happen the day after Brian died was insensitive on every level.

:leostare: at the camera constantly zooming in so you could see how legitimately sad she is.

I LIVE IN A CARDBOARD BOX!
Vince McMahon in 2003. I think he was trying to see how vile he could be. I wrote about it in another thread a few years ago - so let me remind you all again what he did/said:
In 2003, he got pretty deplorable.

  • He started off the year by, for some reason, going after Hulk Hogan and wanting to kill Hulkamania. It was all about the trials and things that took place 20 years before, but Vince must have forgot that HE HIRED HOGAN just the previous year. This culminated in a contract signing for a match at Mania where Vince assaulted Hogan with a chair and then stabbed him with a pen. After losing his match with Hogan, Vince fired him anyway.
  • He then, for some reason, went after Zach Gowen next, making numerous references and jokes about Zach's battle with cancer that caused him to lose his leg.
  • Then, he decided he did not want Kurt Angle as champion anymore and decided to screw him out the title making Kurt compete despite the fact that his sister had just died.
  • Then, he went after his daughter, Stephanie. Over the weeks leading to his match, he made out with Sable infront of Steph and Linda, admitted that he sent Stephanie to clients for sexual favors, and then choked her out in an I Quit Match. Afterwards, he potato'd his wife and made out with Sable again.
  • He decided that he didn't want The Undertaker as champion either and started finding ways to screw him out of the title.In the events leading up to their match (see video posted by @LordEssdot), Vince talked about having terrorists blow up Taker's home, having his wife raped by a motorcycle gang, and having his kids kidnapped. At the PPV, he buried The Undertaker and when Taker returned, he was the Dead Man again.
  • And to top the year off, he kicked Ernest Miller in the nuts after having a dance off.
After that, he spent 2004 and 2005 making sparse appearances, and I was glad too, because I was tired of seeing him on TV.

I'm really surprised that he was accepted by the fans as a babyface again after that entire year, but as wrestling fans always do, they forgive and forget.
