Of course it's pretty hard to beat Owen Hart who died from a stunt he didn't want to do but there are plenty of other examples over the years as well.

I'm gonna bring up Trish Stratus who had to make out with Vince in front of his wife and crawl around and act like a dog for his amusement in public. She eventually got to have more serious plotlines later in her career at least.

Although the real answer is probably 'all of them who aren't HHH'

Eh, i dont see this one as that big of a deal. Its like when a writer/director gives themselves a hot wife in a movie or something.

I find the element of having to do it in public to your long term boss to be an absolute nightmare scenario. Same with that whole 'Kiss My Ass Club' thing he went through. At a certain point you wonder where the line is for Vince as a person and Vince as a character.

I am fully aware it's still probably tame compared to what most wrestlers have had to go through but personally man I find that so degrading and embarrassing.

Brett screwed Bret by not dropping the title to Shawn.

I understand his frustrations for not being part of the finish and that he didnt respect Shawn for being Shawn, but the guy was leaving the company the next day and had the top title. There was zero chance he was leaving Survivor Series with the belt, especially after Medussa dumped the womens belt in the trash on WCW TV.

Bret was willing to drop the title to Shawn the night after Survivor Series. He didn't want to lose it to Shawn in Montreal, given the nationality-based feud they've been having for months. Vince literally agreed to the idea and then backstabbed him lol Bret is not in the wrong

I agree with Scott Hall. Its all a shoot

Booker T

Given that Linda McMahon funded America First Policies, one of the groups that stormed the capital, it's no surprise that the biggest Black star in wrestling history would be mistreated from start to finish by Vince.

Booker is still with the company though as a pre and post show "analyst" for all the PPV's. He probably gets paid really well and has a pretty easy gig. Seems like he would have left a long time ago if he felt mistreated.

Triple H: People like you don't deserve to be World Champion.

*Booker T loses at Wrestlemania clean*

I think he even took his time going for the pin just to make it really obvious.

The amount of people HHH buried during that heel run was crazy. Like I at least get the logic behind faces like Cena. HHH was a heel.

Okay, his on-screen character was devalued repeatedly when he was an active wrestler. Rock literally hopped up from his scissor kick finisher at a Pay Per View and planted him with a Rock Bottom. Another storyline had him consulting a witch for a means of defeating the Undertaker. He threw some supposedly supernatural dirt at the Undertaker which 'Taker shrugged off and planted him with a finisher. Most infamous of all was the "someone like you" storyline in which Triple H used multiple ethnic stereotypes to insult Booker T and then beat him at WrestleMania.

They tripped him at every turn.

What pisses me off about this one is how much of a company man Booker is. He just kinda goes with it saying it was the right choice

More than 30 seconds passed between HHH hitting his move and making the cover.

Good lord I found the full quote

I think youre a little bit confused about your role in life here. Youre going to get to go to WrestleMania, but the fact is, Booker somebody like you doesnt get to be a world champion. People like you dont deserve it. Thats reserved for people like me. Thats where the confusion is. Youre not here to be a competitor. Youre here to be an entertainer. Thats what you do. You entertain people. Hell, you entertain me all the time. Go ahead, do a little dance for me. Go ahead. Give me one of those Spinaroonies. Entertain me. Thats your job. Dont be embarrassed. Youre here to make people like me laugh. With your nappy hair and your suckas. Hell, I was laughing all week long after you won that battle royal.

The thing is that's exactly how the company treated Booker during his entire run.

Retroactively, they've tried to say that "someone like you" referred to him being from WCW. That doesn't excuse the comments on his hair, the orders for him to dance, or the scene in which HHH threw a dollar at him and said, "Get me a towel."

That doesn't even make sense in context for that quote. But yeah that's typical WWE writers for you.

Booker and surprisingly enough Mark Henry are both company men these days. Extremely disappointed by how hard they tow the company line at all costs.

One of your examples is him being jobbed out to another black wrestler, and another is when he was a goofy heel.

The HHH thing was pretty gross though but sadly not even the most tasteless thing that WWE has done.

Saying The Rock is Black is being a bit generous. He's multicultural and his physical appearance favors his Samoan side of the family. In any event, Booker T was still getting jobbed out. The subject is wrestlers who were treated poorly. Not necessarily wrestlers who were treated poorly because of their race. (Though I do believe it was a factor in Booker's treatment.)

And he's successful and leads a pretty good life. Booker T isn't a mark for himself unlike a lot of wrestlers today. Kevin Nash mentioned what Lou Albano told him that the only things that are real in the wrestling business are the money and the miles which is how they should approach it.

Nash admitted that he got screwed upon his return to the WWE, but took it with stride. Aside from losing 4 out of 5 matches to HHH, his treatment wasn't *that* bad. He still came across as dignified as a character.
