View Full Version : Entertainers fined for chair shot
From WWE Corporate (http://corporate.wwe.com/news/releases_2011.jsp):
Superstars Fined for Chair Shot
Pursuant to WWE's Concussion policy, the stunt of using a folded metal chair shot to the head is prohibited. Triple H and The Undertaker have both been fined for violating this policy at WrestleMania XXVII. WWE penalizes through fine and/or suspension for violation of this policy, which is unchanged and still in effect.

By the time you read that post, the effect of compound interest on their bank accounts paid for it.

they both got a slap on the hand
Vince: That was fine, guys. Okay, now we can say they were fined.
Cover your ass, WWE, but that match needed that chair shot.
Wait, why is the victim fined though? :lol:

Because it was a "stunt".

I bet you don't even know what compound interest is.

It's still real to the investors, dammit.

I'm sure Triple H has a Total Gym.

Xero, did you only post that video because of the massive opening shot of Shawn's crotch?

I definitely saw this coming after Trips did the headshot thing. But they were both totally like "fuck this, its Wrestlemania"
like when a pro athlete gets fined $5k or something... peanuts
They were fined exactly $16.00 US a piece.

Pretty much like all the times they've banned blood/blade jobs. The guys are gonna do it anyway when the match calls for it, then get fined. I wonder if they actually got fined, though. I know in Bret's book he said Macho Man/Flair got fined after their Wrestlemania match for blading.

Whoever think Undertaker and Triple H REALLY got fined is crazy.

Agreed. I don't buy that Vince would fine them, it's just a cover.

Maybe "Triple H" and "Undertaker" were fined, but not Paul Levesque and Mark Callaway.

I wonder how Terra Ryzing and Mean Mark feel about this.

HHH probably lost his red stapler in his newly-renovated office..... Taker probably lost a day on his upcoming 6-month vacation.....

Won't somebody please think about the real victim in this: the chair! The chair will never be able to fulfill its duty of letting people sit on it again.
Long Live the Chair!!
