Guest FeArHaVoC Report post Posted July 13, 2003 I lifted this from Jay Bower's column on 411mania.com. Also from the Observer Newsletter (And I wish I was making this up), Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar have been celebrating victory at the end of Smackdown brand house shows in a very unique manor as of late. After the duo clear the ring of the heinous heels, Brock Lesnar has been coming up behind Kurt Angle and pulling his tights up in a thong like fashion. Then, Angle comes up behind Brock Lesnar and does the same. As if this wasn't questionable enough, the two men finish the routine by slapping each other's exposed backsides. WHAT THE HELL? According to Dave Meltzer, the general feeling of fans leaving the arena is an "uneasy" one which is bound to be expected out of such a just plain bizarre celebration. Apparently this behavior has stopped after it crashed and burned in front of live crowds thankfully however. In other news, the August Smackdown brand house show in Key West has sold out the 350,000 seat IslandDome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest pappajacks Report post Posted July 13, 2003 AS just has to live with the fact that there's nothing wrong with being booked as gay characters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CronoT Report post Posted July 13, 2003 There's a difference between being booked as gay characters, and acting all gay and enjoying it. Take Rico, for example: his character is flagrantly gay, but it comes off as either disgusting, or humorous, depending on your sense of humor. It's funny that he embarrasses other wrestlers to put them "off their gameplan;" and it works, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted July 13, 2003 Apparently this behavior has stopped after it crashed and burned in front of live crowds thankfully however. How or why did they expect something like that to get over, considering how they condition their fanbase to think about things like that? I mean really. In other news, the August Smackdown brand house show in Key West has sold out the 350,000 seat IslandDome. I looked at the WWE website, and I couldn't find any listing for a Key West house show, let alone any house show taking place in Florida at all that month. But I guessing that it was some attempt at sarcasm. I'll give an "E" for effort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Superstar Report post Posted July 13, 2003 Why is everything on this board about Anglesault? Why couldn't we just call this "Angle/Brock antics leave fans uneasy" or something?

Guest godthedog Report post Posted July 13, 2003 If this was two women pulling up each others skirts and spanking each other no one would care... But it's not. that's because the whole selling point of the women's division is T & A. the selling point of the main event matches is WRESTLING, PROMOS and STORYLINES. you don't sell a main event and build your world title around homosexual undertones. if these women were good wrestlers, the focus of the company and supposed to actually look like MAIN EVENT PLAYERS, then i'd care.

Guest Deviant Report post Posted July 14, 2003 I would hate to think about how many bare male asses, or men wearing thongs, I have seen from watching "sports entertainment". From those times where the tights have slipping down, to actual running gags and spots, it would probably be quite an unhealthy number. I mean, Billy, Chuck and Rico alone... then you have HHH's need to strip and spank Kurt Angle numerous times in recent memory... It's gotta say something about the writers, doesn't it? Meanwhile, what do the female posters think about seeing guys like Angle in thongs? Is it cool, like most T&A matches are to us in an annoying time wasting way, or is it just wrong?

Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2003 That's a tough one, I guess WWE is trying to hand out fanservice for both genders since you hardly see any WWE stars in Playboy/girl. Although, its pretty disturbing seeing how WWE/Vince has a thing for forcing guys to cut their long hair and wear speedos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2003 Yeah, this is just starting to get weird. Angle and Lesner deserve better than this, they are supposed two main event stars, not two mid card guys that have a hint of homosexuailty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 14, 2003 Scary thing is? I think Angle LIKES this shit... I'm not saying he is gay because HELLO! He got Karen the hot ass stripper but still interesting guy ya know... Again...Me thinks Dr. Jho did more then fix his neck... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
