Update

I would never say anything to disrespect the legacy of Owen Hart. If I did offend anyone, I apologize.
-- Booker T. Huffman (@BookerT5x) April 28, 2015

I am just watching RAW that I recorded Live and the below was clearly said.....

JBL: Neville could be our 1st high flying king.

BOOKER: <Chuckles>

JBL: Owen was a high flyer, but not quiet like this.

BOOKER: He didn't defy gravity.


What the fuck is wrong with these commentators. What the fuck. Yeah talking about a man who plummeted to his death and saying he didnt defy gravity. Holy fuck. Fuck these announcers.

Re: Owen Didnt Defy Gravity? Holy Shit

Did they seriously say this?
Yes, JBL said "well owen was a high flyer" and Booker said "Well he didnt defy gravity" and laughed. I mean Im hoping he's talking about his in ring style but holy shit to talk about defying gravity and mentioning a guy who plummeted to his death...what the fuck. Either theyre insensitive pricks making the crudest fucking joke or theyre incompetent.

Disgusting Jokes About Owen Hart's Death on Raw

I was just watching the Neville match on Raw-- the only thing I cared to see tonight, and the announcers just made multiple jokes about Owen's death.

They said something about Owen flying, then said he didn't defy gravity, and a minute later used the word splatter.

WTF is wrong with these sociopaths in control of the WWE?

You ninja'd me.

I can't believe they went there.
I just pray it was a mistake. Sorry man didnt mean to. I was following main thread and heard that and was like holy fuck. I know most people tune out the announcers but dear lord. I really hope it wasnt a sick joke about his death.

Natalya should march down to that desk and clock the fucking lot of them. i'm still in shock, because that's just not like Booker, who made him say that and fucking why?
Bret Hart helped out the piece of shit by making an appearance for his promotion. I really dont know what made him say that. Fuck him! I've lost all the respect I had for him.

Theres no way thats what Booker meant. It was just a poor choice of words.
He is a piece of shit! Admit it! There is no way he can be defended for saying something that is as insensitive as that. Even a retard would know that is something that he shouldn't be talking about.

Re: Owen Didnt Defy Gravity? Holy Shit

This is the same guy who once called Hogan the N word in a live promo...so maybe it was just a slip of the tongue, but dear lord. I heard that and instantly wanted to punch my television.
I can forgive that because Booker just let that slip accidentally in a heated promo that was live. It happens.

This...you're being fed lines through a fucking headset. With the Hogan promo, he was ad libbing from bullet points.

Not to mention that the N word didn't result in the tragic death of a performer.

lol I hope that really didn't happen.

I just re-watched it. It did happen indeed. easy to miss though.


Am I a douche for actually thinking it's the funniest thing they've said for a while ? I do have a special sense of humor, though.
Can someone tell me what is exactly is the problem with the comment?

Because that shit was gold :Jordan
Didn't find this joke that bad at all either but once again considering how many Benoit jokes have been made since 07 this felt pretty tame.

Come on we hear far worse on weekly bases with shows like family guy and south park(for some reason these shows spring to mind).


looool people are surprised at the lows WWE will stoop to? This is the same company that regularly made fun of JR's bell's palsy, the same company that had Batista talk about Eddie being in hell after he died, the same company that used Lawler's heart attack for cheap heat, the same company that makes fun of Lilian Garcia's "horse face".........
It was Orton who said Eddie was in hell which was part of him being a heel and getting himself over. People really need to let things go. This stuff won't bring back Eddie nor Owen if we all get super sensitive.
