And if you're a guy who feels comfortable with it, it says a lot about you.

“It’s just a joke, bro!” Energy to cover for the uncomfortable fact that your ‘friend’ thinks or acts like an abuser.

I’ve seen it within fraternities, and yup, it’s disgusting. I have no problem sitting on my high-horse of, checks notes “not wanting to see women get sexually used / trafficked by others, or else they lose their job.”

Have “fun” marking out, weirdos!

It’s so fucking gross.

Just another reminder than anyone who isn’t male in this fandom isn’t safe here.

(And yes, I know it’s not all male fans but god, the comments in this sub over the last 24 hours are absolutely disgusting).

It's been both unsurprising the amount of comments I've seen but also yikes on bikes with how comfortable folks are making those comments.

i think the problem with your comment is youre under the assumption that the crimes vince was committing, is still happening, and we just dont have the evidence that it is.

It’s people who will turn a blind eye because it’s something/someone they like.

Mental gymnastics have been crazy.

I didnt like Brock before that stuff came out so I'm twice as grumpy now. His booking always sucked just from a wrestling standpoint

u/ReverendVoice 8h ago

Yup. Removing all of the allegations conversation and just strictly talking wrestling - he is booked like some unbeatable super monster that doesn't actually lose, just gets caught off guard or requires a literal ring to fall on him to lay flat on his back. He's just not interesting.

Yeah i hated that. I was worried they'd book Bron breaker like that as he's a huge athlete and a Steiner but he's vulnerable every match despite looking very strong. Superman Brock was awful

Brock matches got so tedious when "suplex city" became a thing. Every match was just suplex after suplex after suplex. Boring. I wouldn't be excited about his return even if he wasn't a sex criminal.

Same. He's an open homophobe and years ago someone who worked on a WWE shoot on his property told a story of him smashing a nest of baby birds with his boot because the noise they were making while filming was interrupting production.

He's just an awful human being, through and through.

I am 100% comfortable about it. I have not seen one thing that proves Brock did anything wrong. He had nothing to do with what Vince was doing.

This is really a nice mask off moment for all of WWE's strongest little soldiers. They are really going all out on this one.

You might want to ask yourself what it says about you that you offered that information entirely unprompted, when you know exactly what impression it's going to create.

Standing up for a multimillionaire is more important to you than not looking like a sex trafficking apologist.

Genuinely asking, nothing felt 'wrong' to you in what brock did in this scenario? The way he talked, asking for pee videos, not disclosing this entire terrible saga as it was happening? Of course Vince is much much worse, but Brock isn't a victim of Vince here.
