WWE And TNA: 7 Worst Moments Of The Week (Mar. 23)

5. What A Bunch Of Bull

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dFR2H39aSA Over the past few years WWE has made small, very small, steps towards not being so overtly sexist and racist. Gone are the days of bra and panties matches and mud wrestling matches, and gone are horribly offensive groups like Cryme Tyme and The Mexicools. But God help you if you're a little person. Right now, we have two in WWE: Hornswoggle and El Torito. Hornswoggle is basically pushed as a child-like figure these days, which is actually a big step up from his earlier days of communicating solely by grunting. El Torito is not so lucky. He apparently thinks he's a bull. It's good to see that WWE runs concussion symptom tests, but they should probably also check in now and then for the mental health of their talent. On SmackDown, Fernando battled Fandango and WWE shenanigans were in full force. Summer Rae was doing her best over-acting and swayed her red dress around a bit which caught the attention of El Torito. This is because in cartoons bulls are attracted to things that are red (which actually isn't true in real life). Torito then chased her around the ring while she screamed, which cost Fandango the match. Since we rarely see Los Matadores on the main shows anymore, you can imagine that this match was conceived after a WWE creative team member watched an old Loony Toons cartoon that involved a bull and Bugs Bunny. I understand that there is a place for some humor in wrestling, but resorting to cartoonish garbage like that has to be a turnoff to more fans than that are entertained by it. This was literally worse than if someone slipped on a banana peel to end a match. While not likely, that could at least conceivably happen in reality. But a man who is so badly brain damaged that he thinks he's actually a cartoon bull (since actual bulls are colorblind) is about as low as it gets in the humor department.
