Because Jericho is comparing mocking a near-death experience to an angle about Punks alcoholic dad. Thats like comparing an apple to a cactus. |

He didn't compare he just said he got similar kind of complaints, obviously not as many but he would've got some. |

That's not what he said at all. But don't let that stop you.

Apart from that he didn't, I'd also say that death isn't so much worse than other tragedies as some people think. Some tragedies affect people's lives more negatively than someone's death. |

Re: Punk & Heyman mocking King's heart attack
I see absolutely no problem with it. It's a way to get MEGA HEAT and Jerry obviously agreed to it so i really dont see the problem

Re: Punk & Heyman mocking King's heart attack
No doubt Jericho will get a contract rise when he comes back.

I just quote myself now and I would quote my own post everytime someone posts this but I would probably be banned because I would post the same comment 250 times in this thread.
Here we go again:

Now try to top that with any low moment you and all other smartasses and this comes from a big Attitude Era fan.
I am just sick of all people posting for months how they want edgier TV like in the AE and when something happens you post that AE never stooped that low.
Melanie Pillman interview, continuing Over the Edge, using the daughter Dakota for a extreme love triangle storyline between Goldust, Marlena and Pillman with the little girl appearing in the segments, Jim Ross appearing on TV right only a couple of weeks after the Bell's palsy when he couldn't properly speak and still cut promos as heel where you could barely understand him, Owen Hart proudly presenting a "Owen 3:16" shirt after almost paralyzing Steve Austin
Stop pretending like AE was so special because they were so edgy but never stooped that low. I listed many moments that were even lower.
The Attitude Era had many "tell me he didn't just say that" and "tell me he didn't just do that" moments and on Monday it was one of these moments.
Attitude Era was dirty and without taboos and that's why they had great ratings, PPV buys and kicked the ass of WCW because we liked those kind of segments

So what? Bruno Sammartino said that Attitude Era was garbage. Should I change my opinion about AE because a respected veteran like Sammartino says so? What has their opinion of this promo anything to do about their accomplishments in wrestling and that they are respected?
That's like saying that the colour green is the greatest colour in the world because Austin and Storm said so because they are respected veterans.
This is irrelevant and the only opinion relevant here is the opinion of Jerry Lawler and not because he is a respected veteran.

Re: Punk & Heyman mocking King's heart attack
I just find it crazy that in a forum where ppl go all out on others they dont even know have issues with a scripted segment on Raw a show for a time that was all about edgy segments. Its amazing this thread is still going but will probaboy die out once SS is through.

Re: Punk & Heyman mocking King's heart attack
Far more offensive things have happened in the company.
I don't why anybody is surprised or shocked in any way.

you know just because it happened during the Attitude era doesnt make it acceptable...oh, and I'm interested to know what % of the people defending this promo found Vince's mocking of JR to be reprehensible. |
