Regardless of what anyone says, the WWE is a company and with just like any other company, if you don't follow the rules...you pay the price. If Kid Kash knew about the rules and didn't follow it, then that's his fault. If he doesn't like the rules, then he can go back to TNA. And if he decides he hates TNA and the indy scene, then he can do something else for a living.

I agree with what most people are saying. It's a rule. You follow it. Not a hard thing to do. Kash is the one at fault. I don't personally care what these guys wear but as a company obviously having your workers dress in more of a professional manner makes perfect sense.

WWE don't care they can find another Kid Kash somewhere else. If it was someone else worth it they'd let it slide

Yes. Some rules suck. But they are fucking rules. And they are rules for a reason.
Let's put this into perspective before the mock Jeff Hardy body paint fumes start to get to your brain. The WWE. A company that has been plagued by a stigma through the public eye of not being 'legit' and something pretty much exclusively for rednecks and retards. C'mon, it was derived from carnivals. That shit may have worked back in the day, but the public eye is far too critical at this point to be walking around looking like a bunch of slack-jawed yokels in front of people who don't know where you are. I know you'd like to think "fuck what people think", but you have to understand that under all of the smoke and mirrors, World Wrestling Entertainment is a BUSINESS. The public is what matters. AND IT'S NOT THAT MUCH OF A PAIN IN THE ASS TO WEAR A SUIT. Especially when you're going to be catching paychecks for thousands of fucking dollars. It is a very, VERY small sacrifice. |

Dressing up their performers like cheap Hollywood acters will make them look more legit?

Wearing a suit looks better than jeans and a t-shirt. I don't think even YOU could argue that.

Ah, it's been a while since I've seen KK around... then again I'm a nobody jobber who people don't care about... Yes, I am a SmackDown cruiser weight.
Anywho, blah blah blah, it's the rules, blah blah blah, stupid rules, blah blah blah, my pussy hurts, blah blah blah, Triple H is holding people down, blah blah blah... I've just summed up this whole thread. |

Um...this is just me talking...but I'm pretty sure that if I had a job thru which I could afford to wear a different suit every day, I'd be doin' it. I'm an egocentric show-off at heart anyway, and I look good regardless of what I'm wearing, so hell, why not look good...in a suit? Plus, it'd make me look like my career is a hundred times better than it really is. I'm not arguing for a RULE, per se. I'm just saying, I, personaly, would be all about that shit.

What a dumb ass, it is just a suit. As long as you don't get them from the thrift store, they are pretty comfortable.

I don't see what "looks better" has to do with it, other than a feeble attempt to find an argument you can actually win when your "legit" argument is questioned. "Sadda, Hussein was a bad man." "Yes, but sand is prone to being blown around by wind. I don't think even YOU could argue that." So please, explain your point's relevance, and maybe it will be worth an argument. But really, whether or not a suit looks good has little to do with how much an effect it has on the legitimacy of a company or its workers, especially when they try and push "in character" behaviour for their campy cartoony characters at the same time. |

Maybe it's just me, but it would appear that the WWE is making no bones about their product being fake any longer. They lost that war a long time ago. And if you look around at non-wrestling things where wrestlers appear, it would seem that they are trying to make their workers more presentable to the masses. Suits have always been a sign of respect. That's exactly what I believe the WWE is looking for. Of course, there's no way for me to know this, but it makes perfect sense to have a dress code to me. |

Hold on I'm not getting this He was given shit for not wearing a suit in a airport? I mean I could understand that's one of the rules but I thought that rule only applied when a wrestler was backstage or at a meeting or something. Now WWE can tell people what to wear in a fucking airport? I'm confused.

Does a suit make Nick Dinsmore look any less retarded when he's running around the airport making airplane "wings" with his arms? Does it make him look any less retarded when he's hopping on a plane where he'll land and go to an arena where he acts retarded? No. It won't dismiss or alter the image. Either you accept them as actors or not. Saying "don't Try This At Home" doesn't actually stop kids from imitating what they see on TV, slapping an "M" on a video game doesn't stop kids from getting them. It's a superficial gesture to dismiss (By your logic) something which they encourage (By their own logic, by action, by fact). It's not going to work, and would certainly make a large portion of the roster look funnier than if Helms dressed up in his Hurri-suit for every flight. Quote:
And you still haven't explained why "looking better" equals legitimisation. Quote:
On top of that, these are prformers who are asked to play retards, zombies, 900 lb love machines, super heroes, cowboys, rednecks, sociopaths... ...And then are asked to stay in character by the authority that you say is trying to create respect. What could logically apply both as true? |

Nah. It's just that you are incapable of seeing a possible different side, so what's the point?
