I don't give a damn if Lawler approved it, it doesn't make it any less tasteless. For people calling it "edgy" "edgy" doesn't mean good.
Add to the fact that they actually filmed them giving him CPR makes me sick.
Ok, then why didn't Lawler walk off like any self respecting person would've done?
He was making his OWN heart attack jokes for gods sake.
I'm not talking about that. I'm saying Vince could do something like that without Lawler's permission.
Some of you don't understand how insane that shit was. A shitload of things probably happened as a result of this.
-Fans probably tuned out and never turned back on, or if they did, it wasn't until a long time later.
-Some parents probably had to ruin the viewing experience of their children by telling them wrestling is fake. Granted, the kids would of found out eventually, but they shouldn't have to find out like this. That could effect their viewing experience.
-WWE is probably getting loads of mail from concerned parents or adults about how awful that was. (Some of them will probably never watch again)
The heat Punk got for that wasn't purely your typical wrestling heat. It was a mix of "what the fuck is this bullshit" heat.
There's plenty of ways to get heat, and plenty of ways to make your product enjoyable without going this low.

And IF that happened, why did Lawler just go with it? I wouldn't have. Yes, he could do something like that, but clearly he didn't. Based on every source I've seen, Vince, unlike with JR, does respect Lawler.

So basically you guys are puppets. If Lawler's ok with it, you're ok with it. If he's not, you're not. Instead of having your own opinion on what's right or wrong?

I agree, I saw alot of people on WWE's FB page and even here saying they stopped watching after that. For some, it was just that segment, and for others it was because the show was so shitty beforehand (awful AJ/Vickie segment) and that was the last straw

No, it's just that he's a grown man who knows what he is signing up for.
This shameful display must be censored to avoid corrupting our children! It is unacceptable in today's society to do anything that may offend anyone! Our children must grow up completely sheltered and not be exposed to anything which may be considered untasteful! And we will do it for their own good!
