Oh, here's another good one. Jeff Hardy shows up for a world title match so fucked up he can barely walk.
...and they still let him go out there. |

Is this the instance where they put his head between the ladder and double foot stomped it?

Remember a bit about TNA quickly getting rid of her but don't remember if it was because of her getting hurt from that incident. |

I just remember her having a giant goose egg on her head. I think that injury happened a little later

White lion Mike levy I googled it to remember.
They were pissed he "put her national tv contract at risk" Meanwhile she was in a death match in a back yard. A bit later she did a new jack dive and broke her legs and lost her tna deal on her own |

Hard to prove? Punk accused the man of willful neglect on a universally ablvailable podcast and stated flat-out that it could have resulted in his death. If he can't back that up now it seems pretty clear to me. I don't see how WWE can be faulted for going in with their employee when WWE was as much a target of the comments as he was.

I think I have to go with this one. You can talk about exploiting deaths or doing things for shock value, but in this case you're talking about sending a guyear who was a clear danger to himself and everyone around him out to wrestle when there were plenty of other options. The simplest being "ladies and gentlemen, Jeff Hardy was beaten unconscious by _____ in the back and will be unable to compete, taking his place in this match will be _____!" It was going to be damaging enough when the real story came out, letting it happen the way it did was a cannonball in the hull. And why? To give 5 he fans the match that was advertised? Thankfully all that happened was Hardy looked like a total jerkass; performing in any way in the state he was in threatened the safety of everyone on both sides of the barricades. It was lazy, disrespectful, irresponsible, and straight up appalling.

Damn.... a couple punches and the death drop. Stiff death drop and he totally kept him down (for realsies) on the pin. Never seen Sting look so pissed, and well within his rights.
