What Haven't We Seen In Wrestling
 
Here's my list of "taboos" that have been covered by wrestling.

1) Retarded people. (Eugene)
2) Necrophilia (Katie Vick)
3) Homosexuality (Orlando Jordan/ Goldust)
4) Race Wars (We know damn well what WWF was implying with the Boricuas, NOD, and bikers)
5) Degradation of Women (Anything Trish did in the late 90's)
6) Interracial Relationships (Remember Faarooq and Sunny?)
7) Simulated Sex (Lita and Edge)
8) Exposed Breasts (Hogan/ Flair)

Other than child pornography, is there anything left that wrestling can do to shock the casual fan or at least the housewife with too much time on her hands?

Murder.

Doesn't Undertaker get killed like every five years? Buried alive, casket...and one case he even came back "human".

The last of Stone Cold Steve Austin in WWE

YoungFlyFlashy 08-26-2010 12:12 AM

Hmmm....what hasn't been done? They should of turned Linda Mac into a "cougar" where she would attract all the young talent to form a stable against her husband Vince.

Mr. Nerfect 08-26-2010 12:12 AM

Racism? I know you brought up the stable wars, but I'm trying to think if we've seen a wrestler who believes his race his superior. Not just "I'm British, so I'm better." An actually racist character who refuses to wrestle black people.

And I'm not saying it'd be good.

Vickie Guerrero's character is essentially that.

Not in this era...but in the 80's and of course in the Attitude era I think that would of been HUGE! Would be "cheap heat", but either way it would be intense heat.

YoungFlyFlashy 08-26-2010 12:16 AM

Have they ever done a "Mafia" type angle? Where they actually hold true to the Mafia ways, even as far things like getting your thumb remove if you disrespect the family, yadda yadda yadda?

I wouldn't put the FBI in this category, because I would of like to see it go a lot more extreme.

Original Nation of Domination. Farooq would aways say on tv he wasnt getting his titles shot due to the color of his skin, and followed Malcolm X motto, by any means necessary.

dronepool 08-26-2010 12:19 AM

Blasphemy! Rip up the and burn a bible! Crucify somebody upside down! Burn American flags!

CSL 08-26-2010 12:20 AM

It's all been done somewhere.

I'll give you that. But that's sort of reverse racism. It's all race-related. But what about someone who isn't angry about the way they've been treated, but just hates a certain type of people?

Noid is talking about real life in your face racism. Like someone like Triple H letting it be known in the public that he won't wrestle someone like R-Truth simply because he is black. And that he hates "so and so" because they are black, etc. etc. Not wrestling twist on how to handle a racism angle.

YoungFlyFlashy 08-26-2010 12:26 AM

Have they ever had a religion war angle? Like Muslims and their Quran vs Christians and their bible?

YoungFlyFlashy 08-26-2010 12:27 AM

Man I think back somethings and think how big it would of been if Slaugther would of burned the American flag instead of just Hulk Hogan's shirt like he was suppose to.

Droford 08-26-2010 12:29 AM

Tag Team Iron Men Match

oh wait

YoungFlyFlashy 08-26-2010 12:32 AM

Here we go, and it will never happen.

A true inter-promotional war with the two biggest current companies. One big pay per view shot.

Hassan was not creating a religion war. He took the same approach Farooq did, of him being kept down because of his race and 9/11. That isn't a religion war.

ministrychick77 08-26-2010 12:42 AM

i stand corrected then. lol...

I will say, Hassan's character did get back into watching wrestling again. He was gold IMO, then he was gone.:foc:

Droford 08-26-2010 12:46 AM

There should be a video game angle where instead of settling things in the ring, the settle it by playing each other on the newest edition of Smackdown vs Raw. They even televise the match and everything and treat it for real. Then whoever loses gets mad and hits the reset button and calls "DO OVER! THAT DIDNT COUNT!"

Xero 08-26-2010 12:49 AM

Zach Ryder would be the Do Over guy, no doubt.

Droford 08-26-2010 12:51 AM

I was thinking Alex Riley, but then again Alex Riley probably thinks video games are for dorks.

Dorkchop 08-26-2010 01:31 AM

We've seen a penis


CSL 08-26-2010 01:38 AM

We've seen a few penises






Xero 08-26-2010 01:39 AM

Colonel DeBeers from AWA or UWF, unless you mean a real life racist who wrestles as a character who is racist since DeBeers in real life wasn't a racist.

Only reason I remember about him is because of ESPN Classic showing old AWA and UWF shows.

Rammsteinmad 08-26-2010 02:48 AM

Triple H losing a feud.

Vince exploded. Some one did it...I guess. We never found out due to a real homicide. Someone should do a kidnapping angle.Not a gay one like Samoa Joe. Have a wrestler's girlfriend get taken and have the kidnappers send in videos of themselves with her tied in a chair,asking for demands etc. for weeks(this works the best if he's a champion."The belt or the girl?"). Have them rock some kind of masks. Make sure they're like halloween masks or something as not to look like terrorists. Then to avoid charges or jail time have the girl in on it with them and screw over her onscreen boyfriend. They could have a camera go along to find her with the BF. Book it.

Thunder Savage Go 08-26-2010 03:57 AM

they do a "Cribs" edition of Raw, and Cole has a hand dug well in his basement.

They did that. It was called Jericho's first world title win. HHH hit the reset button. And by "reset button", I mean Earl Hebner.
