4. Joey Styles Shoots on Sports Entertainment
http://youtu.be/Lda6Mem9Vbo Joey Styles clearly wasn't happy with the feedback he was being given backstage by WWE officials. He talks about how he's been corrected for referring to the athletes as wrestlers when in fact the WWE wanted him to refer to them as 'superstars'. He also goes on to talk about how the WWE didn't want him to comment on grapples, holds, and moves taking place in the ring but tell personal stories which he felt was disrespectful to the athletes. I can't say I completely disagree. It certainly touches on the argument about the whole attitude of the company changing over to the sports entertainment gimmick. They certainly do try to stay away from saying pro wrestling and I can understand where Styles was coming from here.
