He won't but that don't mean he shouldn't. Bob Holly should have been fired after what he did to Rene Dupree and the same applies here.

Yep, I agree. As the head of his company Vince is required by law and all morale guidance to do something to stop this kind of thing happening. It just might be very difficult to do so with JBL.

Vince really isn't required by law to provide a safe work environment. They've gone out of their way to avoid that, in fact.

Vince doesn't have to do anything. His talent are all "independent contractors".

The bottom line is nobody knows why JBL did what he did.

Most people here are quick to jump to conclusions about him, because he's the big internet heel.

That was my main arguement, I dont know what happened in the past between them, I can think of a ton of reasons why a punch to the face would be warranted. I'm not going to hang the guy just because its Bradshaw.

Is Bret Hart unprofessional because he punched Vince in the face? Or do we accept that he had a good reason to do it? True it wasn't in the ring, which does make it somewhat different, but its not 'that' different, it still happened at a place of business. Its like saying a basketball played can get in trouble for assaulting another player ont he court, but cant get in trouble for assault int he lockerroom.

And I still dont see a huge difference between what Benoit does and what he did. Dont get me wrong, what JBL did IS worse, but at the same time, I'm sure a lot of guys would rather not get their chest lit up by Benoit. There's a way to throw a chop and not kill the guy like Benoit and guys like Holly do. I just dont think thats very far off from punching a guy in the face, guess what they both hurt and they both leave a mark.

Ive never once said JBL was right to do what he did, but people who think who should get fired for it are acting quite nutty. You're really going to get rid of one of your best talents because some jabrone ate a couple of punches? C'mon, its nice to 'act' all politically correct, but if you were in Vince's shoes would you really get rid of one of your top heels for that?

If assualt on another WWE employee (far worse assault I might add) is not going to result in dismissal, what makes anyone think assault on a non-WWE employee is going to lead to the unemployment line. Again, its an accepted norm in the company, if anything you guys should be ripping Vince, not JBL.

Yeah, I think he was just arguing that if he's gotten away with all the other shit he's pulled, he'll get away with this. He really shouldn't, and I certainly don't appreciate this form of "frontier Justice" being condoned.
