WWE & Anti Bullying

Look at when The Four Horsemen ambushed Dusty Rhodes in a parking lot, as Dusty was minding his own business. Was that not bullying? While it was part of the storyline it had the elements of bullying. Want something more recent? How about when the original Nexus destroyed everyone by gang up on them? Until WWE promotes events as "Paul Wight as The Big Show" and "Glen Jacobs as Kane". Wrestling shows acts of bullying, much like an action movie will show people getting shot. It's part of the nature of the drama. While it's all part of the show, it's still the imagery that we see as Randy Orton punts a bad guy in the skull as the audience cheers, post match.
