5 Most Insane Things Happening In Wrestling Right Now (Feb 22)

2. Paige Here! (With An Horrendous Take)

Triple H Kiss My Ass
WWE

We sympathise with Paige, we do, because if any female performer reserves the right to question WWE fans, it’s her: the awful bowels of social media sh*t all over her for recording private acts, as if they do not watch public recordings each and every bloody day.

So when Paige says something like “It was never WWE holding the women back; it was the fans not taking them seriously,” we can’t really blame her, exactly. But it’s strange of Paige to become a company woman, when said company split her and Alberto Del Rio across brands in an attempt to destroy their relationship. It was probably for the best, but this company also removed her from her role as SmackDown General Manager. She was really quite good at it, but she was relieved of her duties because…Constable Corbin was terrible (Vince McMahon is terrible).

It’s also strange of her to say this, when…

Trish Stratus was once ordered to bark like a dog; WWE road agents almost literally held women back by telling them they couldn’t do cool, aggressive moves “like the guys”; Jerry Lawler screamed “Puppies!”, all of the time, like he simply couldn’t get enough of all the big massive t*ts paraded in front of him, t*ts that were mandated to be surgically enhanced; and, since they were just a pair of t*ts to Kevin Dunn, they only wrestled for two minutes at a time, just long enough for Dunn to wipe the ejaculate from his crotch; the women were covered in gravy and lingerie and oil and Vince McMahon’s saliva…

WWE fans refused to take the women seriously because WWE held the women back.
