My girl and I recently watched GLOW (which is fantastic AND you get to see Allison Bries tiddies twice in the first episode!) which is about a female wrestling league in the '80s. Its pretty funny how unbelievably racist the characters are (Welfare Queen lmfao) and they're poking fun at it and my fiance asked if wrestling is really that offensive and I'm like holy shit yes lol. It's amazing how far the WWE has come and how far they still have to go

They weren't just booing them for being heels, that was genuine hatred.What I don't get is why Vince thought the Hassan gimmick was okay. Or why Sgt Slaughter didn't remind him of why having a gimmick featuring someone supporting a group America is literally at war with is a horrible idea. It ended exact the same off screen as Slaughter supporting Iran did. Death threats and pissed off rednecks. --- let's lubricate friction material! ~nickels, Cars & Trucks ... Copied to Clipboard!

Meh. Cryme Tyme was one of my favorite gimmicks ever in WWE. It was the only hood gimmick I found genuinely entertaining. Sad they never really did much with them.
