For those wondering what happend...

I forget the interviewer's name but he was interviewing tim white at a bar.

Asked about how he got injured in the hell in a cell match, Tim drinks a glass of beer

Asked about how his shoulder is doing, Tim drinks a glass of beer

asked some other stuff, but he just kept drinking beer. Tim eventually took the mic and said that he took out all his anger about his injury on his family and friends, they all stopped talking to him, and his injury is giving him a lot of physical pain too.

Then the interviewer said "we wish you a white christmas! Get it... White... Tim White"

Tim gets out a gun and the interviewer gets scared. Tim goes off screen, the interviewer says "no don't do that" and we hear a gun shot =\

they killed off timmie white :o

Whoever (I think it was BDC) said that the WWE can't fire anyone the right way, they were right.

Watch this come up in a few days...
WWE.com: WWE.com has just learned that Tim White's corpse has been released. We wish it the best of luck in the future.

For some odd, odd reason I see them bringing him back as a zombie for either Taker or Boogeyman. They can cover him in worms and he can be Boogeyman's official reffree.

the interviewer (god what the fuck is the guys name) said "your last big referee match" so yeah, technical truth. I guess they want us to forget that detail.

They could always bring him back. the suicide is off screen. Maybe they'll show that all he did was shoot his dog

If I try to think like WWE's sick mind, they were going for something that might happen in a stupid comedy.

Except, Tim White is a real person. Not a television character....

I'd love to sit in the WWE's creative room just to hear their responces to that suggestion:

Dumbass WWE writers: Great idea! Sha\ll we show blood and guts? Too far? Don't you think we're going far enough.

Londoner 12-19-2005 07:16 PM

I would love to hear what goes on in a WWE storyline meeting these days, they must have some bizarre conversations about what to do next.

Xero 12-19-2005 07:19 PM

(The night of Armageddon)

Vince: DAMMIT! What the hell am I supposed to do!? I have to fill this five minute spot on the card... You guys think of something and just tell the worker what to do, I'm too busy.

(Vince leaves)

Write: Okay, time to go through the Russo bin and the random worker who hasn't been on TV in a while bin...

Yeah, I can't see how doing something disrespectful in the name of someone who's actually dead is different than a fake suicide! OMG I NEED IT EXPLAINED!

I actually see that to. as soon as I heard about the whole thing happening I thought he will come back as some zombie.

Today at Tim White's bar The Friendly Tap they had a sign up announcing the bare was closed. There was a sign up on the door saying "Closed due to a family emergency." They are really playing up last night's angle in which Tim White shot himself.

http://rajah.com/base/node/4501

John Fischer sent the following:
I emailed the webmaster of Friendlytap.com (White's bar) about Tim White. This is the response I got:
Hello, thank you for your inquiry about the Armageddon PPV incident involving Tim White. In the world of professional wrestling, nothing is what it seems. Did Tim White actually die in "real life?" No. Did his wrestling persona die on WWE television? This is unknown.
What is known is that Tim White does what everyone in society does. His job.
Tim has been a loyal employee of World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. for over 20 years and it is a good thing to get camera time in a vast sea of entertainers.
Did morals play a part in Tim's decision. We, and he, believe so. Unfortunately, with the recent passing of WWE Superstar (and friend of Tim White) Eddie Guerrero, people have been outraged at what transpired. Please be aware, that sometimes storylines are created over a long period of time. Just because this angle happened after the death of Eddie Guerrero doesn't mean that Tim or the WWE is disrespecting his memory.
The WWE produces television. Please be aware, that sometime things happen beyond the realm of television which doesn't change the course of the product. If a show is based on a murderer and a character passes away in real life, they do not re-write it. They write that character out of the story and the show goes on. Is this cold and heartless? No. It may be sad to the fans, but it doesn't take away from the product.
If this happened on a show like CSI and an actor passed away in real life, they will not re-write the show and turn it into a program about everything but death. It is just the natural course of events that transpire throughout the course of television history.
Please be aware that the WWE product is just television and entertainment. It's just up to the fans to decide how far they want to see into the product.
While we are not here to defend the actions that happened on the Pay Per View, we support Tim's decision in the way he portrays his character on television.
Thank you for your inquiries,
webmaster@friendlytap.com

Pepsi Man 12-21-2005 12:13 AM

Slightly off topic, I think I'll always be a Tim White fan.

Kane Knight 12-21-2005 12:33 AM

I disagree with the above comments, BTW (The ones I posted, not The PEp).

In CSI, almost every episode deals with a death. EVERY episode deals with rape, murder, or some other very serious crime. People die on that show all the time.

In the WWE, people don't.

Shortly after the death of Eddie Guerrero, they "violated" "Eddie's" Lowrider, "killing" Taker.

Shortly after that, Tim White "kills" himself.

Number of times CSI has had a gun in a storyline? Too many to count.

Number of times the WWF/E has done it...This is what, four?

IT's not quite the same.

But we're wrestling fans. We're not supposed to remember what happens from week to week, so it's supposed to be easy to convince us that this sort of angle happens all the time in the WWE.

MVP 12-21-2005 12:42 AM

Just curious, what is the relevance to the suicide angle to any storyline in WWE right now?

Drakul 12-21-2005 04:01 AM

The WWE will turn around and say he shot a rat,not himself or something and that Tim now "takes his anger out on rats" and stuff. I never saw it but I'm told you never saw him actually shoot himself, you just heard the noise.

Eunos 12-21-2005 05:25 AM

Did i miss something

WWE did a suicide angle?

Sounds abit sick..

I mean an employee passed away not that long ago and their already doing these type of Angles?

meh..I don't know.

Also, there's a difference in the perception of the shows. Wrestling/casual fans may know that it's fixed/predetermined/etc, but they don't look at it like an acting performance - credits don't roll at the end of the show saying "Triple H by Paul Levesque". The way people view wrestling is so different to the way they view sitcoms and dramas and whatever, but I'm not sure WWE knows that. That's why they did that crap with Orton...with Cowboy bleeding, Josh possessed, because they think they can get away with it. But in reality, it doesn't fit, and it sucked. Likewise, with the more serious angles, they hit harder in an environment like wrestling, which is why there's more of a reaction when they do the crap like the miscarriages and suicides and other garbage like that.

Right. Wrestling only works as long as we can suspend the disbelief. Josh being possessed was, using the CSI analogy, the equivalent of Grissom and Brown stumbling upon a device in Giza that opened a portal to other worlds, where they discover an ancient alien race is enslaving humans by posing as the Gods of ancient mythology.

They've tried to sell it as "real" for so long, even at one point inviting us backstage, sometimes breaking KAYFABE themselves, especially when you had faces AND heels profess their feelings for Eddie...

...And they don't get why people might have an issue with this.

I don't really mind, I think it's no more poor taste than a lot of shit they've done of late, but I think it's worth pointing out that such an argument as was put forth was rather...BULLSHIT.

It wasn't offensive to me either, it was just very very confusing.

I can understand why some pressure groups might be up-tight about the issue of suicide being exploited on television, but the industry will always retaliate the old "it's just sports entertainment" argument.

jerichoholic169 12-21-2005 11:54 AM

its just too stupid for me. Guy commits suicide off camera, commentators act shocked for all of, um, two seconds and then carry on as if nothing happened at all. Yeah really believable.

In the last few months we've had racist comments, suicide, wrecking a dead persons car, quasi-terrorists (the whole Hassan angle smacked of it), kurt wanting dirty gutterslut sex, etc. It really begs the question as to what they're going to try and do next.....

And all of that happened in the same damn year!(Didn't it? That WWE memory span is killing me)

But seriously, this whole thing just makes me chuckle. I didn't actually see it, but I would give my left nut to be a fly on the wall for a few days to see them coming up with storylines. I'd love to be in on the conversations.
