Way to go Triple fucking H!
 
Kassius Ohno has reportedly been pulled from shows and is going to have his push stopped due to not cutting weight and refusing to work on his physique.

Told ya!

He looks like a fucking slob.

Gertner and myself had the same complaints about him from the beginning.

Mr. Nerfect 07-22-2013 10:34 PM

Don't have a problem with Ohno's weight or size, but if your boss asks you to do something and you don't do it, you can't really blame anyone but yourself for that. They should sign Chris Masters to be Ohno's tag team partner and work out partner.

Innovator 07-22-2013 10:35 PM

I'm amazed that the guy was married on the road to Cesaro for 4-5 years and didn't pick up on working out with him.

I'm amazed the guy constantly wrestled so many long matches on the indy scene for years and that didn't at least burn off enough calories to lose the love handles.

WWE should have an overweight championship. They should also bring back Mickie James.

Vastardikai 07-23-2013 12:14 PM

On one hand, he needs to definitely at least look like he cares about how he looks. Looking like an out of shape bum might get him by in the Indys, but you have to at least pretend to give a shit when you're in the big leagues.

On the other hand, "getting into shape" in WWE language often means Steroids, and I can also get why he wouldn't want to do that.

If he were just walking down the street, with a shirt on, I dour anyone would stop and consider to him to be fat, so yeah good job on not being fat. But he's definitely not in shape, especially in a profession where you're paid to look like an athlete and usually doing so topless.

Vastardikai 07-23-2013 01:52 PM

He should switch to a singlet at the very least.

Corporate CockSnogger 07-23-2013 01:58 PM

If he just trimmed down he'd be fine, he doesn't need to be ripped to shreds. Like Gertner said, look at Jericho most of the time. He usually comes back from his absent stretches pretty ripped, but usually he's just well built.

Better yet, look at Edge. He was never really ripped or hugely muscular, but he never looked like a slob either.

Ol Dirty Dastard 07-23-2013 07:00 PM

the steroids excuse is past it. Most of these guys coming in don't have a Benoit/Guerrero/HHH circa 2002 body. You're seeing natural bodies come in, which is why guys like Daniel Bryan, Seth Rollins and so forth are coming in. From the workouts I've been seeing WWE guys do, it's mostly about athletic training and athletic bodies. They do olympic lifts and deadlifts and the like.

Even look at Big E Langston.... he is fucking absolutely massive but you can tell he is naturally just that huge, he doesn't look like Batista, he is just a thick, terrifying man.

Chris Hero or Kassius Ohno does not look like a fatass, he simply looks like he doesn't give a fuck and is out of shape. All they want from his is to just trim down a bit, and if he can't do that as an athlete then he doesn't deserve a push.

Ol Dirty Dastard 07-23-2013 07:06 PM

As far as Jericho goes, he looks better now than he did 5 years ago.

Same here. I don't understand the mind set where every wrestler that's not a "big man" needs to look like an athlete.

Fignuts 07-24-2013 03:23 PM

Because WWE is the pinnacle, and unless his gimmick is that he's an out of shape piece of shit, it makes the company look bad.

Juan 07-24-2013 03:37 PM

I agree that if he was told to get in shape, then he definitely should, but I couldn't care less about his physique either way. It's not one of the things I watch wrestling for.

This is my thought on the subject. Unfortunately for Ohno, the WWE does care about aesthetic, regardless of whether or not you can go in the ring. If he was told "Look, we like everything you do but we don't feel like putting someone who looks like you on TV," then yeah, it's shallow, but it's the company's right, I guess. Ohno can't blame anyone for that but himself.

Keep in mind that Ohno is not a young man, either. He's like 34 in a few months. As he gets older his body is going to get harder to maintain. Now that he's not on television and can focus on appearing to be fitter and not being able to use "But look at my ring work!" as an excuse, he might actually get a handle on it and be given props by management for turning himself around.

It's not just Ohno who has been pulled for weight issues. Weren't the WWE concerned about Brodus Clay, Big Show and Bray Wyatt at different points? It's not a nail in your coffin. It's all down to Ohno's attitude and what he does from here.

I'm sure they tried to sign Ohno at the same time as Cesaro but he failed his medical for whatever reasons and delayed him being signed for several months. Might even be that this isn't just an aesthetics thing and there's an underlying health problem.

Have you seen the guy wrestle? He doesn't get blown up easy. The dude is in tremendous shape.

I agree with you on the point of looks apparently mattering in the WWE. To me, they don't matter as much. I'd rather someone be good and look kind of shit than look the part and be really shit. Ideally, someone would be the total package, but if I had to choose one or the other, I'd go with substance over style.

Comments like this make the guy sound like he's as big as Kevin Steen and lacks any kind of cardio because he has an extra few pounds around the midsection. I see you are being sarcastic, but some people will read that as gospel.

"Diamond Dallas Paige could live a thousand lifetimes with his genetics, and still never look like me!" -Big Poppa Pump (quote chosen for effect)

I "get" the point of view, but not everybody builds the same. There are people who seem like they barely break a sweat and they look as good as Drew Mac did when he first got called up, and there are some people who, no matter how much they diet and excercise, can barely define their abs and when they even skip a couple days, it all goes to hell. There have been points where people like Punk, Bryan, Jericho, even Regal have all kinda looked a little loose around the tummy. None of those guys have ever been chastised for "lack of motivation". He might be one of those guys who needs to almost literally LIVE in a gym to attain any semblance of shape, and even though they're in WWE, not only can everybody NOT do that, but it's kind of like that whole thing where Test resisted cutting his hair because he "has a life outside of wrestling". To us, it sounds like such a low price for more fame and fortune, but we don't truly know the sitch. Him "dogging" his workouts might mean he's in the gym for 5 hours a day instead of 6.

Besides, when you have a bodybuilding nut telling you you're not motiviated because you're not sculpted like a bronze statue is kind of like having Usain Bolt tell you you're not dedicated to running because you can't keep up with him in a competitive race.

Triple H isn't telling him to look like Scott Steiner. He is telling him to not look like a fucking pudgy bum.

Hero is sitting in Florida pissing away a chance that millions of people never will get. Its a shame.

Maybe Chris can move to Sanford and become Public Vigilante #2 and be George Zimmerman's sidekick. You know, use pro wrestling moves instead of bullets.

One of the few times I'll agree with you.

Look, nobody here expects Ohno to look like a bronzed god. Look at the brand of athlete coming into WWE today, it's not the body builders of old. This is not a black and white conversation.

Look at Daniel Bryan, look at Chris Jericho, these guys have athletic, but relate-able bodies. They keep fit. Ohno looks like he probably does a lot of running (as he is by no means fat, just very soft and doughy) but no strength and conditioning. They aren't saying "Kassius put on 30 pounds of muscle" they're saying "Kassius like 10% body fat" aka, shore up your diet, and get some high volume training in. If you're an athlete, and your job demands you take care of yourself in that right, have personal trainers and people over seeing your fitness, being a little disciplined should not be so hard.

I think HHH's main beef, and the WWE brass's main beef is not with the fact he looks doughy but the fact that they asked him to make some changes and he's showing no intent to put the extra work in. For him in particular maybe they thought it would help his gimmick and his push to look more lean and athletic. The same as if they told Brodus Clay he was going to be a dancer, and he didn't do anything to learn how to dance and showed a bad attitude about it.

The same as some of our favourites who get caught smoking dope on the wellness policy. This is their job, and they're told not to blaze out. It's a bullshit rule but this is their livelihood. Smoking dope, much like Ohno having a doughy body doesn't impact ring work, BUT it's what is standing in the way of him and his big chance. And the same with not smoking the dope, it's not some HUGE ask. It's get into the weightroom by hook or crook, and knock out some fucking reps with the rest of the roster.

I "get" the point of view, but not everybody builds the same. There are people who seem like they barely break a sweat and they look as good as Drew Mac did when he first got called up, and there are some people who, no matter how much they diet and excercise, can barely define their abs and when they even skip a couple days, it all goes to hell.

Yeah, it's like Jon standing next to Garfield. Just ask DTTS. :)

Much agreed. It'd be like if Jillian Hall refused to wear her fake birthmark or sing terribly.
