WWE Statement On Controversial RAW Angle

[Guest Choken One]

I didn't get Smackdown a year ago...so Never saw it.

[Guest FeArHaVoC]

All signs continue to indicate that the angle WWE pulled last night on RAW revolving around Triple H having sex with the dead body on Katie Vick was a major attempt at getting some publicity. It appears that TNN approved the angle before the show in hopes that it would get people talking about RAW. TNN has yet to speak out against the angle. WWE is now calling the angle the "most controversial segment ever" on its website. Despite the attempt though, no mainstream outlet has picked up anything about the angle yet.

Well, of course the angle hasn't gained any publicity!

 

The Billy and Chuck wedding angle got mainstream attention, because same-sex weddings is a current societal issue and has been for a while now. People screwing dead chicks, however, is not.

so HHH had sex with a "dead girl"......at least you didn't see Taker come up to him when he was HHHonking and say "hey Hunter...10 years ago...I was a Dead Man...." and just wink at him as the scene faded to black...

A lot of the Show hate is unwarrented. Show was very watchable and was very good for his size until a month after he came to the WWF. Read SK's reports. Even he admits that his matches are watchable and effort can be seen. Of course, he went to hell after that but, still I wanted to say Paul Wight hasn't ALWAYS sucked.

Problem is that 90% of offense can't be used on him. He knows only the most basic of offense. More was possible when he was--you know--MOBILE! Take a look at "The Giant" back in WCW and Big Show now...it looks like he swallowed a couple people whole.

In a blatant attempt to create controversy and further enhance the character of RAW’s chief antagonist Triple H, last night’s Monday night RAW on TNN (rated TV-14 LVD) presented an alleged act of necrophilia.

That first line says it all. They are even admitting that the whole point of the angle is to shove Triple H down everyone's throats even more. Loved how they call him the "chief antagonist" because they are delusional enough to think the mainstream media is going to pick up this story and talk about Triple H like he's some big mainstream star.

I know I said he stopped being good about a month into his tenure in the WWE. Before that he would just chokeslam Mick through chairs. And that's always fun to watch.

TBS is like a slow Andre....

Actually, judging by the WrestleMania tapes I've been watching...Big Show does more in the ring than Andre the Giant did when he was alive.

 

More mobile at least. And when he does a front bearhug...it doesn't look like he's using the person for support to stay up.

You aren't looking at Andre when he was a similar age.

 

Andre could move once upon a time.

Good thing they put that disclamer after that rash of kendo stick beatings and the many murders using the 619.

[Guest Pop Culture God]

There was only one murder and it involved the Crippler Crossface, not the 619.

 

How the fuck do you kill someone with a 619 unless they're in a ring?

...OK...how old was Andre at WrestleMania 1?

[Guest Ravenbomb]

Lou Thesz COULD carry show. He could carry him like a bag full of fat. With handles.

 

But maybe we'll get luckey and they traded Big Show to unemployment. Any maybe they traded him for Mike Sanders.

He was 47 in 91 when he died. WM 1 was in 85.

 

Do the math.

[Guest Mulatto Heat]

Andre died in January 1993.

Thanks man, it's not something I like to remember
