Honestly, its WWE's fault for thinking they can control what Lavar and his fam say on live TV. They thought they had that Ball Control but they were obviously wrong.
WWE aint got the type of money to be telling Lavar Ball's son what he can and can't say. This is the same guy who went to war with Nike.
But isn't the kid black himself? I'm not being facetious, but when a black person uses that word it's not a slur, is it? If Dean Ambrose had minced out and started using the N word, that would be a wholly different matter. But isn't it widely accepted that the circumstances are different for black people when they use that specific word - due to its history?
The same company with the CEO calling John Cena my ni**a in 2005 has to issue a statement to appease low-paying sponsors due to an off the cuff moment from a non-member of the active roster.
Why were they there anyway? I get the WWE wants to stay hip and whatever but you have tonnes of talent on your own that you can utilize better. No need to bring on a family that's not involved in wrestling onto a wrestling show.
Apparently there was chaos backstage after he said it.
