Re: Punk & Heyman mocking King's heart attack
Yeah and Paul Haymen is NOT A PRIME CANDIDATE for a heart attack.

Re: What the actual fuck WWE? Mocking someone who had an heart attack? Really?

This.
King even said when the ambulance was backing up into the arena "Oh look my ride is here" because he's okay and happy to be alive.
People need to understand that King is fine with this being put into the angle. If you feel offended then you must think wrestling is still real to you... dammit. |

Tonight, Jerry agreed to be part of that segment. Let's keep that in mind.

Why does everybody say that? Not saying I agree what happened to the Big Show, that was totally out of line, especially when his dad did die half way through that story line but saying it was very Attitude Era like just discredits the Era for no reason at all.

It should remain that way? Are you serious? This is exactly why wrestling and wrestling fans have a bad name.
The point of pro wrestling is to suspend your belief. To make you think you're watching something that's realistic and believable. Vince ruined that long ago, and instead created the image of wrestling that is just fake bullshit with no morals. Yet he does hypocritical bullshit like BE A STAR.
Unbelieveable. And then McMahon wonders why he's been shit on by the general public for well over 20 years now.

Think Show's dad died years before actually.
And let's not forget Big Boss Man feeding Al Snow his own dog! I just remembered that one... Man Big Boss Man was an ass |

Re: Punk & Heyman mocking King's heart attack
You'd have thought lawler had actually died judging by some of these comments. It's not even in the same stratosphere as the "eddies in hell" comments. I actually found Rey Mysterio's pathetic "I'm gunna win it fa Eddie" title reign way more offensive.

I guess Punk will do anything to shake off his reputation as a ratings poison.

I find Chavo using Eddie's name whenever he can offensive. Example is at BFG
Nobody gave a shit that he won, cue namedrop of Eddie for a cheap pop

Re: Punk & Heyman mocking King's heart attack
Must say I'm surprised people feel the need to be offended by that, I'm sure King himself would tell you to grow some balls.

Re: Punk & Heyman mocking King's heart attack
they've done worse, i just found it just crap, i cant see what it was there to generate? cheap heat that Punk already has? just seemed unnecessary, if he'd have come out wearing one fake boob and a bald cap during the cancer cheque segment, now that would have been OTT...  |
