Everything surrounding wrestling has become so insufferable it makes it actually hard to enjoy anything.
Every journalist, podcast, "fan" online, and many of the various places meant to discuss it are Lefties who treat things like "Wrestlecrap" as gospel and think the "mostly buff dudes in tights and tassels*" of today is somehow less cringe than full kayfabe "no he is actually dead and that's his baby and that's an actual voodoo shaman" of yesteryear.
What's sad is that most of that isn't actually there in the business itself, its just every single facet of the fanbase you can find trying to force this narrative. Especially now that Vince is both gone and "cancelled" due to totally believable allegations that just coincidentally came out after he retired from someone happy to take his money before.
*These were always there and prevalent, but now its the overwhelming majority and that makes it far less impressive while also making everyone less distinct.

Ehh, if you've been paying attention, Vince has been accused of that sort of stuff for decades at this point. If said case was his first rodeo, then yeah, I'd side with you but this is very much old news and overdue. I do hope that Trump does not pardon him, mostly because I want the case to go through and the truth be seen, even though I'm biased to believing that Vince did in fact do the stuff alleged in the lawsuit, because this is nowhere near the first time that he's been accused of actions like that.
This isn't blindly believing her at all, it's simply seeing what Vince has done, what's been allowed under his watch in WWF/WWE, and what's around him. Vince is the person that people think Trump is, like one of the biggest examples is that JR literally had to show Vince that Asian porn existed or else he wasn't going to hire Gail Kim the first time around because he thought that Asian women were ugly, and both JR and Kim have addressed this on several podcast episodes (not while being on the same podcast, but they've both told this story multiple times).
I did. Had no idea there were so many settled lawsuits over his tenure. And he and his family definitely crossed lines I never would; but hey he got those sweet ratings.

McMahon seems like a weird guy. Did you see the Mr. McMahon documentary on Netflix?
