"This promo had a line regarding my actual friend who's going through actual leukemia that Vince wanted me to say...It is the worst line, I'm not going to say it on air that's how bad it was. It was something where somebody would have to be fired, maybe me. We would've lost sponsors..."
Well Yea Forums? What was the line?
Other urls found in this thread:
Most likely: "You better hope that cancer kills you before I do, Roman."
lmao what a simp, does Moxetty know wrestling is fake?
based slag shot on charletty's literal dead brother and moxetty won't even shoot on romaneet's worked leukemia
Dean/Jon is cancer
this, thing is that would have been a tame line back when wrestling was somewhat socially acceptable
Imagine wanting to portray a lunatic but being horrified by fucking banter
Why does WWE keep employing these marks? Their literally supposed to be actors playing a role.
>"Ya see Roman, the fact of the matter is your coconut-nigger ass is going to meet your brother in hell, where all the other island savages deserve to go. Prayers won't save you, and neither will the Susan G. Cunt foundation."
Look at the glee in his face as he delivers the line. This is why Orton is 13 time champ or whatever and Deano wasn’t
The Meltzer subculture that started to permeate post-screwjob has totally manifested.
>this guy is supposed to be "hardcore"
>the second coming of Austin for obese smarks
>this skinnyfat dweeb who's too pansy to cut a promo in fake fighting
Hope his brittle neck turns to sawdust when he gets dropped on it by the Japchads.
The line was such good shit he realized he was under it.
Dean is not about bullshit controversy. He likes doing good old fashion carny shit like rolling around in garbage and fighting in a box of tacks and broken lights
The e-drones are in full force tonight
#StandUpForAEW
Nah, probably.
>If the cancer doesn't beat you, I will" or something
Orton would have said it
>OP is a faggot
yup. reminder that in the same city JFK was assassinated, Christian said this line:
based peep not afraid to get that US president assassination HEAT
this was post-russo too, wasn't it
i bet this wasn't even nominated for "most disgusting promotional tactic" by dave
It was probably something indirect like "People who have cancer are weak and deserve what they get" which would definitely piss off their cancer charity sponsors.
I don't care about AEW though e-drone. Nice cope thougu
>Edge Smokes Poles
based 2000 user called his shot knowing Copeland would turn out to be a faggot ass simp
Dean is right where he belongs.
In the safe space.
they would never script something like that. it was probably something much tamer, on the level of charlotte's brother reid being mentioned by whoever, i forget. was it paige?
Paige said the line, but WWE didn't come up with it. It was Charlotte's idea that she pushed for, both Paige and the guy that helped write the segment (who has since left the company) have confirmed that bit.
interesting
obviously if charlotte pushes for it she's gonna get her way, she's pretty valuable to them
i just can't see it being any worse than "If you beat cancer you're gonna have to beat me"
WWE has been so fucking PC and PG sincce 2008 it's not even funny
"ya ding-dong diddly seethe bitch"
Prime Randy was so based
>that crowd
>that confidence on the mic
>prime jr
Bring back the Attitude Era please
Christian sucks so badly. So awkward on the mic and I honestly hope he gets murdered
>be Christian
>cut promo in Dallas shitting on JFK assassination
>2 years later after 9/11
>be apart of anti-american stable
>right before the 1-year anniversary of 9/11 the stable tries to set american flag on fire
bluedot might be afraid of dimes, but he's not afraid to get heat.
Holy fucking based.
Didn't they do a double turn like two weeks later because the crowd turned on Charlie like they do everytime she tries to go on a babyface run?
Lost a little respect for Dean, not gonna lie.
Yeah, the only real controversy about the line aside from how shit it was delivered was that nobody told Ric or the rest of the family about it, and Ric was out there for the promo. It's along the lines of Nia and the fat shaming promos Alexa cut - since Nia's the one pushing for it, that's her call and I'm not going to pretend outrage over it. Hell, remember "i wish you died in the womb?"
This is a point he has made repeatedly on the podcast every week that guys today seem to be afraid of getting real heat and are too worried about being beloved and admired for their performances. He noted it was specifically a problem in NXT and praised Ciampa for going actual full bore heel and trying his best to have 0 likable traits and going for actual real heat.
>It was Charlotte's idea that she pushed for
lmao @ believing WWE's press release propaganda where they pushed her under the bus to take all the heat after it backlashed and got the wrong kind of heat.
It was not Charlotte's idea
The fuck is 'the Meltzer subculture'?
Me too, the best part about dean was his promos & now to find out that wasnt even him
Oh yea nice gets
It means Dave lives rent free in his head
Low key I think Vince was testing him to see how down Deanetty for the E. He failed the test. Fuck AEW
Of course he wouldn't say it, it's a line basically calling Dean a cancer shitter that should die instead of Roman
E-drones are part of the problem, this is the like/dislike ratio on the smelly doo doo audience promo
Reminder this is cult like behavior
the stardust gimmick had 95% approval and even the remaining percent who hated it used it as a way of complimenting Cody for making it "work". when it just plain sucked. *hisssss*
cringe
Unfortunately they cant do something like that in this day and age, the sponsor are really careful and if Dean said something similar he'd have to take the fall and be fired
Actors playing a role don't refer to real illnesses of other actors you retard.
