7 Worst Wrestling Moments Of The Week (March 26)

1. Casual Sexual Harassment

Does that look like the face of a woman who wants to be kissed by Crocodile Dundee's perverted dad??

I went to a TNA house show around 2008 (believe it or not, they did exist!). At one point in the show, some sort of nonsense went down in a Knockouts match and Earl Hebner ended up making out with Madison Rayne. It just somehow happened! Hell, two years later they were still doing the spot, and some form of it keeps on happening.

On-air, they even ran a horrible (holy s**t was it horrible) angle where the two had an affair. Of course, it never went anywhere. Basically, what I'm trying to say here is someone behind-the-scenes has a weird sexual fetish of Hebner making out with the Knockouts. BUT WHO? And WHY?

So often in wrestling's past have we seen babyface wrestlers force a woman to kiss them, or pull down their skirts or spank them as a way of getting their revenge. It's always been pretty damn sexist to say the least, but in 2017 it feels incredibly out of place. On Impact, Hebner was getting fed up with Rebel's nonsense (her return should probably land a worst as well, but we'll give her a chance!) so he grabbed her attempted slap and forced her to kiss him. No matter who takes over this company, WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?

It seems very Vince Russo-esque, but he's nowhere to be found. So it must be those good old boys in Dutch Mantell, Jeff Jarrett and Bruce Prichard who think this is hilarious. It's not. It's stupid and icky to watch. I mean, picture going to the grocery store and a woman in line is a bit rude to a male cashier, and so he grabs her and plants one on her. The cops would be there in about five minutes. In Impact's weird worldview, we're supposed to cheer this...and sadly, many did.

After 15 years of existence, just grow up Impact.

Time to kick out.
