Bradshaw Causes Incident At House Show

Recommended Posts

If the WWE is any kind of smart (which they're not) he'll be released immediatly before the media gets wind of this and the shit really hits the fan.

 

Do you really think that the America media will care about this considering it is WWE and it was out of the country? You won't hear about this outside the internet, I say.

Beat me to the punch by posting this already ... what mainstream media group is going to cover this 'scandal'? Having a pro-wrestler do the salute is no worse than having a band do it, and I'm pretty sure the racist Oi bands have toured Germany more than once. It's barely news to us, and we post on a wrestling board. Who else is going to care?!?

I was terribly upset CNN keep covering former President Ronald Reagan's death instead of covering this huge scandal.

It was the Eve of the 60th anniversy of Dday. There's no more inappropriate time to do it.

Well, Chancellor Schroeder has publicly stated during these past few days that he thinks that it's time that Germany acknowledged the part it played in the events of D-Day.

 

A good start would be to not get their panties in a twist over something as inconsequential as the idiotic actions of a wrestler at an otherwise unremarkable wrestling event.

 

Not to excuse Bradshaw's behavior, but this is SUCH a NON-scandal that it's ridiculous.

I agree.

 

How dare them!

 

Can't they see that this is a MUCH bigger story than the death of one of the most influential and important individuals of the past 100 years?

You know, the sad thing is he was probably told to go out and do that. If Vince didn't realize the severe mistake it would have been creating a caricature of Emperor Hirohito, they wouldn't realize how serious this would have been (I knew it would have been in horrible taste, but I didn't know doing the Nazi salute in Germany was against the law until this happened).

A pro wrestler pissed off a German crowd at a wrestling show. Say that out loud and realize how ridiculous getting worked up over it is.

a member of the crowd tried to attack him...

 

yeah they sure knew it was a "Cheap Heat" attempt.

It was cheap heat. This happened to be cheap heat on a much higher level than the standard "home team sucks". Something this stupid and inappropriate will get a violent reaction no matter what the intentions were.

 

Bradshaw is an asshole. Bradshaw is an even bigger asshole for doing this. Bradshaw is an asshole fuckwad dipshit moron for doing it given the historic date.

and you should stop being a fucking dick.

 

The Nazi's destroyed Germany. Millions of people were killed because of the Nazi's. Doing something as ignorant and insensitive in Germany is wrong.

 

Especially on the eve of the 60th Anniversy of Dday, a day were my grandfather and four of his brothers fought on.

 

Two died.

 

 

It's history and everyone should respect that. Germany was torn apart completely because of that war and it's an extrodinarly sensitive topic to this day.

 

It'd be like having a wrestler pose as a KKK member in front of a predominantly Black audience.

Or like the Canadian characters who insulted dead American Icons and were going to burn the American flag? Or these French characters who insult America? Or that evil British William Regal, possibly this new Japanese character and lord knows how many others in the past?

 

If you're easily offended then don't watch shows like wrestling, South Park, SNL, MTV and Howard Stern because that's the nature of the shows.

He did something that was Illegal.

Well, in that case. Punish and/or fire everyone on the roster who takes steroids and pain killers without doctors orders. We can take down the whole business if we're going after illegal activity in the wrestling world.

It's not quite the same thing (though personally I'd think discouraging steroid use and the like would be a good thing). Bradshaw did something illegal clearly in front of a large crowd. I think if a wrestler took steroids in such a public fashion Vince would not be best pleased to say the least.

So, it's okay to say negative comments and do illegal things behind the scenes as long as it's not in front of a large crowd?

Does anyone think that this is the exact reaction he was hoping to get from this? We internet fans often discuss how good or bad a heel is based on our criteria for what makes a heel good, but we rarely get hooked in to the point of actually hating a guy. Bradshaw is obviously pushing some buttons and causing some legit heat.

No it isn't. But it's worse from the company's point of view for a wrestler to be doing something illegal in public.

Maybe Bradshaw didn't know that was illegal? He's not from Germany. He probably just figured he was getting classic cheap heel heat.

About the illegal thing:

 

Anybody read Dynamite Kid's book? He talks about beating up kids at shows in Japan in order to get thrown in Jail and get heat from the crowd. I really don't think this is much worse.

Quite probably. I'm not offended by it personally - like many people have said, it's just pro wrestling. I just think it was a pretty stupid thing for such a supposedly intelligent man to do, it really won't do the WWE any favours in the German market and he really should have thought that it might not be such a great idea before he did it. Still, I'd probably just give him a slap on the wrist and tell him not to do it again.

See, that's the thing. He did it in the moment. A one time thing. This is hardly as bad as Hogan Vs Slaughter when we had people dying in Iraq.

 

Fact: Wrestling lacks morals.

I never thought I'd see the day when Bradshaw's pathetic attempts to garner heat would give rise to a debate such as this. All he did was try to rile up some wrestling fans, and you folks gave it to him in spades, thereby justifying his existence in the sport that we all love. Don't you know that the more you ignore him, the faster he'll disappear?

 

For shame. (And shame on me for adding to the trainwreck.) :bonk:

I actually kinda wish Goldberg was still around, I would have enjoyed hearing about him beating the shit out of Bradshaw. :D

That would be a pretty good return angle for Goldberg. Have him wear a yammukah and the whole deal, just totally playing off all the stereotypes. Then the big blw-off match for the feud could be Bradshaw's specialty gimmick match.....The Brawl for it All.

Given the fact that Jericho apparently took Goldberg to school, I'd have little confidence that Bill could beat Bradshaw's ass.
