Isn't it funny....

I was watching the Booker T./ Hardcore Holly match last Thursday and I heard Michael Cole refer to Hardcore Holly as a "locker room leader", yet the internet makes him out to be an asshole. What's up with that?

[What Would Kevin Do?]

The "Locker room leader" comment was in regards to him standing up to Booker T when he was bashing Smackdown. The comment Cole made was in regards to an angle. The internet makes him out to be an asshole, because from the given information, it's a safe conclusion.

What if he really is a locker room leader and not the asshole 99.999% of internet fans make him out to be?

He IS an asshole, you can tell by his tough enough actions, and by listening to him in interviews. He thinks that because he's been around longer than most in WWE, that he is deserving of a push, despite the fact that he pretty much sucks.

Yeah, coz EVERYTHING wrestling announcers say is true.

They have such credibility...Like the Pope...:|

While we're at it, Crash and Bob Holly are really both well over 400 lbs, because the announcers said so. :|

Then he would be a locker room leader, and not an asshole. Would the internet fans say " Hey, we were wrong." Probably not, even though they would be.

At this time however, there is no info backing up the claim that he's a locker room leader. There is however, info showing the he is an ass, including his words and actions on Tough Enough 3.

And another point to ponder. Usually when you hear about a locker room leader, it's someone big, IE The Undertaker, Kurt Angle, Eddie G, etc. These people are usually big name players, main eventers, and are usually not mentioned by the announcers as being "locker room leaders." Holly on the other hand is not a big name, is not a main eventer, and the announcers called him a "locker room leader." Looks like Holly is pretty much the opposite of every other established locker room leader.
