10 Wrestling Moments You Felt Totally Guilty For Laughing At

10. Big Punishment For The Little Guy

We're trash, humanity. We didn't need Twitter to confirm that for us.

When we see somebody fall over, we don't empathise with their plight. We p*ss ourselves laughing because the very notion of our fellow man struggling compels us, involuntarily, to remove what is a mere mask of pretence. As Jeff Jarrett helped clarify, it helps if the person suffering is perceived as weaker than us. We are trash and we are drunk on the most insignificant degree of relative power.

Which is why you cannot help but guffaw at the sight of the GIF above. Beetlejuice, the entertainer, suffers from both dwarfism and microcephaly. Jarrett doesn't merely crack him with a guitar shot. He cracks him with a guitar shot to the back of his head when his back is turned, putting himself over as a brilliant d*ckhead, which was far more plausible tan his role as the saviour of WCW.

If we're trying to rid ourself of the guilt, we might point towards the fact that Beetlejuice put himself forward for the punishment, and that, for a non-wrestler, he bumped better than hips-first John Cena. He looked like a spilled beer bottle spinning before it crashes, punch-drunk, to the floor.

But no: it is funny because he is little.
