Anyway, do you reckon' WWE is going to sit down with CM Punk over this "homo" issue? Is GLAAD going to have a word with WWE? Any impacts you can think of from this altercation between Punk and Sally?








:)

[The Naitch]

LOL at your gif

He punched right through it

[Shisen Kopf]

I don't think too much will happen because of it. And that guy probably did look like a homo. Also, why are GLAAD always so pissy?

[The Naitch]

sensitive morons

[loopydate]

I doubt anything will come of it since Punk came out almost immediately and apologized, calling himself a "douche" and his comments "bullshit." He recognized that the comments were out of line and did everything he could to fix it himself before it could get worse.

Fucking fags need need to man up.....

[BollywoodSingh]

What did the fan do or say that makes him a douche?

I'm a CM Punk fan, but he always seemed a bit trashy to me so I wouldn't be surprised if he instigated it himself.

[blake639raw]

Big freakin deal. If the fan was really offended, they need to get over themselves. He was just working the fan obviously. Most fans would love that interaction with a WWE superstar. I thought it was understood that it wasn't to taken that seriously.

[James Steele]

:lol:

CM Punk was doing his job , but he did go "too far" in today's environment and has issued an apology. I hope nothing more comes of this.

Agreed. It's bad enough when fucking comedians- known "dirty" comedians at that- have to apologize about some of their material to those uptight assholes... pun unintentional, but funny.

[Aguakate]

...Everything nowadays has to be so politically correct...people will go crazy over anything...

[RiX1024]

it was only CM Punk playing a heel and doing his job, simple as that. gay slurs or not. he was being heckled so he had to sort him out.

[Impeccable]

Watching the footage, I think Punk sees halfway through that he might have overstepped the line. His demeanor changes, and he begins to say "this is what I do", and the fishing reel, hook in mouth action.

Hopefully, the fact that he knows he has gone too far and the fact that he has apologised will mean this goes no further.

Cm Punk is a heel..... he's supposed to make people hate him..... he did such a good job, he got media coverage on it..... he should be rewarded for a job well done, not criticized because of his methods.....

[TNA&USA#1]

He should be criticized if his actions are in direct opposition to the position the WWE is claiming to take on the matter. Personally I don't care at all and I think he should say whatever he wants, but if the WWE is trying to buy good publicity with their anti bullying and anti gay slur stuff, then it should be pointed out if they're not actually doing that.

Not really. As Mr. JamesSteele said, he's in an anti-WWE angle. Hell, he was about to talk about how bullshit their anti-bullying shit is. In fact, it'd almost make sense if he did do the most to get the WWE into trouble.

My personal opinion is that words are words, and Punk was doing his job as a heel. He probably should choose wittier things to say than "You're a homo!" but he came out on his own an apologised for it -- which furthers my belief that he's actually signed a new contract with the WWE. :shifty:

[HBPunk]

What he said was homophobic and thats a fact. But i do think that everyone should just chill and let people say what they want. If someone is sexist, racist, homophobic etc. then we can make our mind up as smart people to ignore that person or just not acknowledge them. If we keep bringing up this stuff everytime someone makes a little quip then it just brings the matter to light and makes people even more sexist, racist etc than they were before. I say let everyone say what they like all the time and just say "fuck off" if you dont agree with it. No need to get so bent outta shape about it if it doesn't affect you personally. The world will never be a perfect place with people singing from the same sheet and people will always have something new to bitch and moan about. so lets just move on.

like that knobhead shisen kopf, i put him on ignore and now i cant see his racist and homophobic bullshit anymore. It doesn't affect me anymore so i dont give a shit. its up to him if he wants to continue being a tool but it aint my problem anymore

[TNA&USA#1]

I'm all about saying whatever you want too, but that's not the issue. This isn't the media attacking the WWE just to do it. The WWE put this burden on themselves when they voluntarily stated that they were going to speak out against bullying and gay bashing. No one forces them to do that. They did that on their own. And they did because they want to get good publicity. That's fair enough, most sports leagues have a similar campaign intent on building similar goodwill.

But if the WWE is going to hold themselves out and say look at us, we're speaking out against gay bashing, then they have opened themselves up to be criticized when one of their wrestlers is doing the very thing they said they're not doing anymore.

[TNA&USA#1]

The issue isn't with Punk as a person. He's a grown man who's allowed to say what he wants. The issue is if the WWE permits the use of that slur when they've stated that they do not.

[James Steele]

Who says WWE permitted it to be used? Are you saying WWE told CM Punk to go out there and call somebody a homo? Highly unlikely.

[TNA&USA#1]

Who says WWE permitted it to be used? Are you saying WWE told CM Punk to go out there and call somebody a homo? Highly unlikely.

No I'm not. I'm not suggesting anything like that. That's absurd. But if they ignore the comment and don't do anything to curb future use of those slurs, then all their talk about being against gay bashing is completely disingenuous.

[TNA&USA#1]

All I've seem from the WWE on the matter is that they said oh we don't condone that word, but he's an independent contractor so whaddyagonnado?

That's pretty disingenuous.

[jskinnyg]

I Thought it was hilarious and people should get over themselves... he was doing his job... Good Lord...

[TNA&USA#1]

Again, completely missing the point. It doesn't matter what you or I think about it. This is about the WWE voluntarily stating that they're not gonna allow those words on their shows, and then one of their wrestlers uses one of those words.

The easiest solution to this would be for WWE to just drop the anti gay bashing campaign and let their wrestlers do whatever. But they can't say one thing and then do another.

[kareru]

aren't we all Homo sapiens?

if you know latin, CM Punk called him a "man"

[loopydate]

I can't believe this thread has gone on this long with no one making reference to the old caption running gag.

"No, YOU'RE a homo!"

[Kane Knight]

I don't think too much will happen because of it. And that guy probably did look like a homo. Also, why are GLAAD always so pissy?

You'd be bitchy if you had a dick up your ass.

calling himself a "douche" and his comments "bullshit."

no idea what point you are making at all, well you aren't making one are ya

[BollywoodSingh]

Whether or not you think that GLAAD or whoever are overreacting, CM Punk still should know better than to use the word "homo" while working for a global company like WWE. He was obviously wrong to use that word in 2011, doesn't matter if he's a heel.

[Lock Jaw]

Turn his skin pink/purple and he kind of looks like Sinestro from Green Lantern with that Stache and haircut.

[St. Jimmy]

YOU HAVE A VAGIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINA.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

I think one of the fem groups should get up in arms because Punk used having a vagina as an insult. Clearly this is insensitive to women.

[Emperor Smeat]

I doubt he even planned to use the the slur initially but because the whole promo/trash talking was done in an impromptu style, it slipped out but he managed to realize the mistake and tried to change the tone of the insults.

It doesn't excuse him saying the word but at the same time its not like he planned or been calling fans "homos" at every show.

I'd assume wrestlers are given a lot more creative freedom with their promos on house shows than during tv episodes that have larger or live crowds.

[The Naitch]

I wonder if he noticed that he was being filmed?

[Rammsteinmad]

Maybe he was calling him a 'hobo'. :shifty:

[djoutcry]

I wonder if he noticed that he was being filmed?

I'm pretty sure he did. Either way, Punk is an amazing heel, and his mustache is SO bad ass...I WANT THAT, sigh...going to start today, will be done in 4 days I guess

[captaincharismark]

I think ppl take this too seriously. He called some dude a homo, and now WWE reacts as if he's the devil incarnate. You can't expect a heel to do his job if you censor what he can and can't say. WWE really needs to stop kissing GLAAD's ass, b/c they apologize over every homo or gay slur. Almost as if they wanna point it out, even though GLAAD wasn't aware of it. I'm sorry, but ppl were using those slurs long before CM Punk came along, and they'll continue to do it. I do think saying slurs is wrong, but being too sensitive over the issue is ridiculous. I could understand if he was threatening a gay person, but name calling isn't exactly a monumental case. No one ever got sentenced to life in prison for slurring someone to death. It's a freaking double standard. First amendment goes for everyone, and in this case should not be overanalyzed.

[The Naitch]

fucking faggots

:D

Also, wasn't GLAAD on John Cena's case not too long ago?

wow we got some real brainiacs here

I found it to be lame

[FearedSanctity]

- GLAAD's OppostingViews.com website posted an article about CM Punk's rant in Australia, saying they are in discussions with WWE to properly train their talent to deal with gay and lesbian issues in a better manner.

- GLAAD also mentioned that they were told by a WWE Spokesperson that CM Punk would be leaving WWE after the Money in the Bank pay per-view.

[Nark Order]

Alright, all of this Anti-Gay patrolling doesn't seem to be solving the problems that GLAAD would like to be solved and ultimately it's just creating new problems of censorship (Not to mention it's making people fucking hate them). The event wasn't even televised. It's starting to look more and more like a witch hunt everyday.

That's b/c if GLAAD thinks this one incident will stop gay remarks, they are smoking some powerful shit. For every pro, there's a con. I understand the need to show tolerance for ppl who are different, but WWE has stepped over the ass kissing line. Every little incident is reported to GLAAD, even if they don't see it as an issue. So why do damage control in a situation that cannot be fixed? To me, it winds up looking more like censorship and over sensitivity than a constructive way to solve a problem. I highly doubt CM Punk calling some dude a homo is the most gay bashing remark ever uttered. If that's the case, GLAAD should never go near a locker room, or they could target dozens of ppl for no reason. Apparently joking or saying something sarcastically isn't acceptable anymore. I bet if he called the dude an asshole, no one would even think twice about it. Funny how supposed groups have a double standard when it comes to something as simple as having a sense of humor. I personally can't comprehend why it's even a big deal to begin with. GLAAD obviously didn't know the incident occured until WWE made them aware...

But that would require pointing the finger at wrestling, and wrestling fans refuse to do that.

Kinda like when Vince was potentially defrauding shareholders and the smarks all spazzed out because "Congress is interfering with pro wrestling!"

Or when Vince attacked the company that ahd LET him use their trademark for over a decade and the smarks all spazzed out because "Pandas are ruing wrestling!"

Yeah, 'cause that worked well last time.

Oh, I don't know. It gave Vince his jollies. I'd say that's the whole purpose of half the shit he does.

[loopydate]

True. Sad. But true.

[captaincharismark]

But that would require pointing the finger at wrestling, and wrestling fans refuse to do that.

Yeah, but it seems to me that GLAAD would find someone to point a finger at for being insensitive to their cause. Every joke or sarcastic jab is put under the microscope and scrutinized. It's one thing to be tolerant to the GLAAD organization, it's another thing to essentially be controlled by them. Do you think WWE in the Attitude era would've been GLAAD's little bitch? Hell no.

WWE is to blame partially here for even making something out of nothing, but IMO what CM Punk said isn't a big deal.

Kinda like when Vince was potentially defrauding shareholders and the smarks all spazzed out because "Congress is interfering with pro wrestling!"

If you're referring to the steroid issue, then Congress should single out more than just wrestling. All forms of sports or performance have that issue. That would be like getting upset at Congress for "interfering" with baseball or football. I do agree though that defrauding shareholders is wrong, but I'm sure with it being wrestling they were investing in, they knew the risks.

Or when Vince attacked the company that ahd LET him use their trademark for over a decade and the smarks all spazzed out because "Pandas are ruing wrestling!"

Ppl always complain about this, that or the other. Sounds to me like you are "spazzing out" b/c you don't agree with so called "smarks". What's the big deal about fans here voicing an opinion? Maybe some ppl preferred the WWF name over the WWE name. I guess by that logic, when the other WWF said WWF(E) could no longer use their trademark, they were "spazzing out". You like that phrase alot, but you sure have your share of dislikes and complaints. Double standards by so called "intelligent ppl" is always a ironic thing to watch.

If GLAAD were to be in on the angle, and actively try to cast doubt on Punks situation. If they were part of the whole package - do you think it would be a wise move for them, to sort of show that we aren't just whiny oversensitive people, but we're actually cool and "hip"

I think it would be cool - I also think it highly unlikely

[XL]

So, lemme get this straight (heh):

Punk said something inappropriate, then he realized it was wrong and apologized for it.

We have to hate on GLAAD's totally legitimate gripes (read: over-sensitive reaction if you're on that side of the argument) regarding the use of homophobic slurs. Or, you can hate on WWE for being over sensitive and "shopping" themselves to GLAAD.

It's your choice.

Steroids were only part of the issue, and while it's nice to say "WWE shouldn't be singled out" they were singled out not for steroids, but for potential fraud where one of the elements was steroids.

If you phrase it dishonestly, you've got a point.

Speaking of dishonesty....

What's the big deal about fans here voicing an opinion?

Good job knocking down that thurr strawman, son. Nobody's saying voicing an opinion is wrong. Blaming World Wilfdlife Federation ( :shifty: ) for not wanting to be associated with someone who was actively pissing on them, however, is just plain retarded. Especially when that someone is receiving the rights to use said mark predominantly through good will.

The "big deal" has nothing to do with people "voicing an opinion," but more power to you if you were just out to lie. :y:

[Kane Knight]

Or, you can hate on WWE for being over sensitive and "shopping" themselves to GLAAD.

What really strikes me as interesting here is that a lot of the people bitching about this are the ones who frequently hoist the "WWE has the right to make money!" Canard. Which I'm not sure anyone really thinks is false, mind. Nobody really expects WWE to be an NPO.

Yet the main reason WWE does this is that they like money. Why, they even like the money of faggots, and take steps to keep it "coming."

The only thing that seems to be a problem here is that the appeasement is not going specifically to whiny little faggots who think WWE shouldn't be apologetic.

Queers are big money. Who else is going to buy "Suck it" shirts, except for five year olds and the mentally handicapped? And of them, only homos have their own disposable income.

That's why Vince never apolgised for saying "nigga." Niggers....Sorry, NiggAs, don't have any money.

[captaincharismark]

If you phrase it dishonestly, you've got a point.

I don't think I phrased anything dishonestly. I simply don't agree with your POV on this issue. And I said "WWE shouldn't be singled out" b/c the major arguement Congress had with WWE was, you guessed it STEROIDS. Anytime Congress targets WWE, they make a public spectacle of saying steroid and drug abuse is rampant. That would be a valid stance to take if every other sport was held to the same standard. You very seldom see Congress target other sports where steroid issues are just as relevant. I highly doubt "potential fraud" was even a major issue here, considering the overall reason given for Congress inquest into WWE was STEROIDS. How is WWE "defrauding" anyone, when public knowledge of wrestling and steroids have been avalible since the early 90's??? But then again, no one ever said they were gonna stop investing in WWE or stop watching it b/c steroids were a factor. That would be like saying someone was gonna stop watching football b/c they were "defrauding" potential investors and fans when their athletes use steroids.

I find it interesting you accuse me of dishonestly making points, when all you do is twist facts to fit whatever opinion you have. You talk as though you have some insider knowledge on the subject, when you are really speculating just like anyone else here.



Speaking of dishonesty....

Addressed above...

The last I checked, stating an opinion isn't knocking down anything. WWE pissing on WWF? Again, I have to disagree. At the time, WWF and WWF(E) were on good terms until the trademark issue came up. Telling WWE they must change a name they've used for years would tend to create animosity. I do agree WWE took shots at WWF, but it's not as though WWE had an agenda and purposely tried to put them out of business. I again question your so called "insider info" which you tend to imply with your responses. Nothing more than speculation, yet I'm out to lie? Seems to me that misinformation is another form of lying. Only I don't claim to know details about subjects I'm not directly involved with. You clearly don't work for World Wildlife Federation or WWE, so how would you know? Assuming you know something and stating it as fact is arrogant and ignorant at the same time. Always ironic to see some moron post misinformation and claim it as fact when there is no basis for it. As far as I can tell, you have shown no facts to support your claims and is speculative of situations you know nothing about...

I find it difficult to read your posts, captaincharismark.

Just saying.

[screech]

Not to imply you don't have good things to say (I honestly don't know you at all), it's just hard to "get" your content when it's 15 lines long without some kind of spacing.

No trouble with reading the words. I just find it difficult to take anything he says seriously.

As opposed to Kane Knight or any other so called "expert" here? Yet another person who can't deal with difference of opinion. There seem to be alot of ppl on the wrestling forums who are narrow minded like that. I post my opinion and back up my points with logic(or at least as logical as one can be on a "wrestling forum"). Then, some know it all jackass replies with nuggets of wisdom like this...

My eyes are pretty awful. Just looks like a blob of yellow, like he peed on the page.

So I'm not missing much, then?

Seriously, you must never read a book, if you can't concentrate on two paragraphs:rofl:

[screech]

Right, because reading normal spaced words on a page is the same as reading your mass of nonsense on a computer screen :roll:

This from the guy who reads "Cody Rhodes is awesome" as "Cody Rhodes is the next Stone Cold Steve Austin." Get the fuck outta here.

[Swiss Ultimate]

When did he get this new look?

Kinda looks like Jesse Ventura.

[parkmania]

Anyone else notice that Punk let his beard stubble grow back in so that on Raw the pornstache wasn't as noticeable?

Funny I never called Cody the next Austin or Rock. I said that until he can deliver on the mic, like Austin and Rock did, he'll never be a top superstar. Big difference there pal:rofl:

That depends on who you're running from:lol:

I feel like captaincharismark's TPWW obituary should he get hit by a plane tomorrow would simply read "Liked his laughing smileys"

[Krimzon7]

What ever happened to freedom of speech?

[parkmania]

You're free to say whatever you want - unfortunately, so is everyone else.

Taking this a bit seriously are we??? I have to say I'm more entertained with idiotic remarks like those than laughing smileys. For my own amusement though, theoretically, how would you know if I got hit by a plane tommorow? There's fantasy forums like these, and then there's reality. Learn the difference:rofl:(there's that damn smiley I love so much)LOL...

[CSL]

oooooookay then

[Sixx]

:rofl:LOL

Now that I've taken the time to actually read captaincharismark's posts, I wish he would keep posting 28 line spaceless essays so I can gloss over them.

[screech]

Also laughing now cause I'm picturing him getting hit by a plane doing :rofl:

Coming from a geek named after a Saved By The Bell dweeb, I think I'll consider the source. Your dumbass has been in every thread I've replied to, yet never stayed on topic.

So, until you post something more than a shot at me, kiss my ass. I actually attempt to discuss wrestling. You on the other hand, add nothing to the thread other than a lame attempt at humor.

[Xero]

DO A BARREL ROLL!

:rofl:

Wow, very creative asshole. Great to see your have nothing better to do than think of pointless shit. Seriously, you sit there and think of me being hit by a plane. I truly feel sorry for your sophmoric, immature, dumbass. Go fuck yourself:foc:

[loopydate]

*sophomoric, immature, dumb ass.

If we're playing the semantics game, "dumbass" would be a third consecutive adjective without a noun to modify. "Dumb ass" means that his ass is sophomoric, immature, and dumb, which I assumed was your intention.)

[loopydate]

...unless you meant that "Go fuck yourself" itself was sophomoric, immature, and dumbass...

In which case, there shouldn't have been a period.

My intention is to give a FU to stupid idiots here that post pointless shit rather than an actual discussion on wrestling, I frankly don't give a fuck what anyone thinks. Talking semantics is irrelevant if no logic is used.

So now I say screw discussing anything with all these smarks here, who'd rather spam a thread than discuss something objectively:foc:

[CSL]

that post wasn't reeking of much awesomeness

[Juan]

It definitely reeked tho

[The Naitch]

any pics of the dude with the faux hawk?

I've changed my mind. I like you.

Let's be friends. We can watch CM Punk's now-famous promo together, followed by his remarks to that fan.

I have them both saved. I'll make them into one video & put it on a loop just for us. I have some chips. You bring the beer. It'll be grand!
