5 Most Insane Things Happening In Wrestling Right Now (April 6)

1. Spit Take

From the concerning to the cathartic, a great moment of karma made Twitter something less than a complete hell scape this week, as viral footage emerged of a despicable "heel" spitting on a child in a pathetic - and hilariously misguided - attempt at generating heat. It did work - in that the child's father naturally went apesh*t and swung for the fences. Any real wrestler worth their salt would have done something to defend themselves, or known some sort of wrestling hold with which to defend themselves. Even Randy Anderson, WCW referee, was equipped to kick the sh*t out of anybody who dared enter the ring. His amateur wrestling background helped.

This guy was simply an amateur, and a disgusting one at that.

According to Twitter, the wrestler in question goes by the moniker Devin Danger which, given the last two letters of the forename, is a self-fulfilling prophecy if there ever was one, the irony of which is appreciated - even more so for those with knowledge of Scottish slang and dialect.
