UPN Bans Hassan Permanently

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

Well, he's not sure, you see. Because this could still be a work.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

The negative press isn't a work. The statement from UPN banning Hassan from Smackdown isn't a work. Call it a hunch, but I'm guessing this situation isn't a work. But I guess the media coming down on WWE and UPN could be going along with Vince for one big mega work.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Even if UPN's declared position is real, Hassan could survive as a PPV/internet-only character for two plus months or so until Raw gets moved to USA. There used to be a time in the pre-Raw days when a World champion would rarely appear at the television tapings anyway.

 

Besides, WWE gets paid a flat fee nowadays for the Smackdown rights, UPN has to sell Smackdown ads based on the ratings. If the ratings go down because a title feud gets pulled off weekly television, UPN would take the short-term hit.

UPN are not working you. You might be working yourself, but that's another matter.

 

Hassan could survive as a PPV/internet only character, but they actually want him to draw, which rules that out.

 

Once again, with all the negative press that UPN got, I don't see Spike or USA wanting any part of the mess. What part of that is so hard for you to grasp?

 

Yes, there used to be a time when the World Champion would rarely appear, but guess what? It isn't that time anymore.

So, what you're saying is, this can still be a work

I could well be working myself, please let that be the case. The one thing though that I have learned over the years though is not to trust the blatantly obvious in the pro wrestling business. It's so obvious, so laid out, so pre-destined that Undertaker must bury Hassan tonight that it could end up all being just a sham.

It is.

I think they should just let Hassan wrestle on Smackdown, and blur him out. All references to Hassan made by anyone get bleeped.

Anytime he says anything, it gets bleeped.

Like you've never made a typo, smartass.

I thought it was funny, and I would expect you to correct me the same way.

[SuperJerk 0]

It was funny.

 

I was kidding you back.

I think it's ironic that Hassan was basically turned into a martyr for his cause against the discrimination of Arab-Americans. Doubt the writers were thinking of it that way, but this actually wasn't a terrible way to kill off his character. Very fitting, actually.
