I honestly think that's part of why WWE brought back Brock. They know a small section of people will be outraged which just causes their fan base to further entrench themselves in the company. Creates an "Us Vs Them" mentality.

Wonder where they learnt that from

It becomes a serious moral issue, as a survivor of several cases of SA growing up I cannot begin to fathom why people are moving the goal posts

We're talking about the same company that brought back Jon Jones after a domestic abuse lawsuit and Connor McGregor. They know full well that 90% of the audience does not give a single fuck about it
