2020 Pro Wrestling Thread

I’ve always loved Big Show’s story on this. He was watching Henry give his speech, and sent a long, heartfelt text to him. Then he saw Henry’s swerve, and texted to him, “You son of a bitch!”

 

There's a lot of sick shit that's suddenly come to light across wrestling, including a lot of accusations against NXT UK talents.

Welp.

I’m still surprised in this era that the E’s 1980s/90s sex scandals haven’t been revisited.

 

Now they've got Jack Gallagher and Matt Riddle facing accusations.

And Justin Roberts?!?

411MANIA | Justin Roberts Accused Of Asking For Explicit Photos From A Minor

 

Justin Roberts was bullied by JBL! That one is kind of hard to believe. Also not sure New Day should be on the crusade on this one given Woods’ fappening with Paige but

this is one fucked up year

 

Didn't even get the future endeavors.

 

Whole bunch of accusations right now. Here’s the one against Riddle.

And this accusation is against Velveteen Dream.

 

Jimmy Havoc, you’re up.

And tonight he got a win on Smackdown against the Intercontinental champion. Oof.

 

I certainly don't mind people who have committed sexual assault and/or harrassment being called out, but, honest question, what prompted these accusations all at once? Did someone coin the #speakingout hashtag and invite everyone to share? Did one of the above alleged incidents serve as a "ground zero" for this?
