10 Outrageous Attitude Moments You Won't Believe WWE Got Away With
8. HLA
Those three little letters, which stood for hot lesbian action, came around at the very end of the Attitude Era back in 2002, and practically become a mantra for Eric Bischoff, the Raw General Manager at the time. For whatever reason, WWE thought it would be a good idea to boost ratings and get the fans to watch if, instead of actually showing some wrestling, they would have girls make out in the ring. Because of course whats what wrestling fans go to a wrestling show to see. Maybe it was an attempt to pick up the Jerry Springer demographic or just to do something shocking that would make news headlines. Whatever the reason, Bischoff was more than happy to promote it. At Unforgiven that year, Bischoff made good on his promise for hot lesbian action as he escorted two beautiful women (who Howard Finkel simply called the lesbians) to the ring and had them make out with each other before removing their tops. Even Stephanie was going to get in on the action with a rather rotund looking lesbian but it was all reduced to a comedy bit when the lady turned out to be Rikishi in drag ready to give Bischoff a stink face. It was crass, it was distasteful, and worst of all it served no point whatsoever, and you really have to question how they got away with it.
