Guest Anglesault Report post Posted March 28, 2004 No, I just no sell anything but a gun to you head as justification for attacking a woman. I just don't think that a push qualifies as assult I'm pretty sure the courts dont agree with you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MikeSC Report post Posted March 28, 2004 While I do not condone physically harming a woman in any way, shape or form, he pushed her - if she was off her rocker and throwing punches at him, what else could he do? But Steve Austin is still an asshole when it comes to this situation. If she wasn't facing him (which hand and knee injuries indicate to me) He's both an asshole and a coward She "claims" hand and knee injuries. Can she PROVE them? Until she can, then he didn't do ANYTHING wrong. If she can, then it's a case for the courts. -=Mikr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus, this situation has NOTHING to do with the Austin we see on T.V...that counts for the pro and con Austin arguements. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What do you think she waits a few weeks sighs and then calls? Can she prove that the pictures are of anything Austin did to her? I'm not going to bury the guy because some woman claims to have injuries from a push. Again, if there was ANYTHING to this, the cops WOULD have arrested him. It doesn't take much for the cops to take you downtown in a domestic situation. One bruise, one cut, one mark on her that looks even remotely bad and they'd have arrested him. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest neodragonsan Report post Posted March 29, 2004 Okay, I've read this entire thread. First, I'll be honest with you, I do not like Steve Austin as a wrestler, nor for what happened with Debra. That said, there is still no proof yet that he actually assaulted her. One quote in the article earlier really caught my attention. Williams, 39, was not arrested, despite reports to the contrary, and is still scheduled to appear at an autograph session in New Jersey tomorrow. His 37-year-old girlfriend, who was not identified, and who he is reportedly in the process of breaking up with, called police last night. She claimed Williams had shoved her to the ground, injuring his hands and knees and she was fearing bodily injury. She indicated a willingness to press charges. This is what makes me question her motives more than anything else. There are 4 possible scenarios here, really: 1) He broke the news of wanting to break up with her on that night, and she faked the injuries, knowing his past, to spite him. 2) She attacked him, and he pushed her in self defence. 3) She attacked him, and he overreacted. 4) She did nothing wrong and he assulted her. The 4th is obviously assult. If she was attacking him, and he pushed her in a manner to stop her, it could be self defense. As for landing on hands and knees, a push to one shoulder can cause a twisting of the body that would do so. Given his history, assault would not surprise me, but we do not yet know the details, so judging at this point is premature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haVoc 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2004 As for landing on hands and knees, a push to one shoulder can cause a twisting of the body that would do so. What? You mean people don't take flat back bumps in real life? Damn that Vince for swerving me again. I was watching this thing on the Rock last night on E! and he said he choked a girl out at a party once in college because she made fun of his dad. Not only does Rocky get off free by most for leaving WWE for Hollywood where he makes millions while Brock gets ripped apart for taking a long shot at a dream of his for less money, but he also choked a women. C'mon boys! Let the Rocky hate begin!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2GOLD 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2004 Rocky has always been protective of his dad and his dad's image. And if I remember, he went into counceling for it as part of a deal with Miami University that he made. I'm still wondering if Austin changed anything about his life after what he did to Debra.

Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted March 29, 2004 The thread that just won't die continues. Boo The Rock people. He choked a woman! That's 80 times worse than a push. Choking might mean he was trying to kill her. Boo Rocky! Boo! Boo! I don't see people shitting all over Randy Savage for his...WHACKY personal problems, because he was (WAS) a great wrestler.

Guest Dynamite Kido Report post Posted March 29, 2004 Funny thing is, with the recent problems with Rob Feinstein this really got me thinking. Why is there nobody threatening to boycott the WWE product? Why are they not getting threatened by Arena's that they are doing shows? Why isn't InDemand and Direct TV threatening to quit carrying the WWE's PPV's? Gotta love the double standard.... disclaimer: I am NOT defending ANYONE with this post.......

Gotta love the double standard.... disclaimer: I am NOT defending ANYONE with this post....... I was about to make the same statement. I didn't hear anybody invoking "guilty until proven innocent" for RF, although the evidence against Feinstein is far more persuasive. But seeing some of the same people who wished death upon Feinstein and his defenders arguing that Austin's abuse is a personal matter is troubling. Just to be clear, however, I am not defending RF's behavior either, just asking for some consistency Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Trivia247 Report post Posted March 30, 2004 Smoking gun's Police report...unless someone else already did it. http://thesmokinggun.com/archive/0329041austin1.html MARCH 29--Wrestler Stone Cold Steve Austin (real name: Steven Williams) allegedly assaulted his girlfriend during a dispute last week at the grappler's Texas home, according to this San Antonio Police Department report. Tess Broussard, 37, told cops Friday that she met with the athlete to discuss the couple's troubled year-long relationship. But Williams (referred to in the report as "SP," for suspect) became irritable and yelled at Broussard, "I'm tired of talking about this shit. Shut up!" Broussard (referred to as "C," for complainant) claimed that Williams then grabbed her, and she began struggling with the 6' 3" wrestler, who eventually threw her to the ground. Broussard landed on her hands and knees, and later told officers she had injured her right hand. Broussard provided a written statement to cops, who photographed her injuries and are now investigating the incident. This is not the first time the belligerent 39-year-old World Wrestling Entertainment star has been accused of injuring a woman outside the ring. In November 2002, Williams pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor charge of assault for striking his then-wife during an argument. He was fined $1000, sentenced to a year's probation, and ordered to perform 80 hours of community service and attend a domestic violence counseling course.

I enjoyed Austin's work, but to be quite honest I'm tired of this. Austin has gone from the #1 star to an inside joke with anger problems. It's time for the WWE to take some action rather than just pamper the guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
