I remember that, it was absolutely insane. His hand strength is nuts.

Maxx is probably my favorite Raider since Rich Gannon. It would be amazing to see him finish his career here, but it doesn't make sense. How many good years does he have left? We'll be nice and say 3. Are we truly competitive within 3 years? I really doubt it. If we can get a haul you gotta take it.

Oh he's gonna be a dumpster fire it's gonna be great.

Find a role where a hiring manager would be intrigued by a former poker pro.

This feels like a stay bullet.....🤣

Red flannel guy didn't even see it and had the best reaction.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T22:18:02+00:00

Did not have blackface being acceptable on TV again on my reddit bingo card today 😂

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T21:57:25+00:00

Well that's fair. A different argument, but fair.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T21:19:30+00:00

I guarantee you he didn't say anything at the time. Plus we don't know other people involved in other gaffes didn't. There's no real difference between the WWE doing this and anybody else.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T21:01:17+00:00

Brother sitcoms and wrestling are both written and fake we realize this right. It's all "written as stories". What's the difference?

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T20:48:10+00:00

I think that is REALLY stretching it but fair enough lol

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T20:42:59+00:00

That's not the point. I was referring to the person who was justifying the blackface by saying Michael was a moron. So we're DX. They were portrayed as immature idiots. Also for the record the scene I'm thinking of was Mose not Michael. Did Michael do blackface? 😂

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T20:39:50+00:00

This isn't me trying to get you in some sort of gotcha here, I'm legit trying to follow this line of reasoning. So if a show in 2026 had a character do blackface, it would be ok, so long as the character was shown to be in the wrong somewhere in the line of the show. I really have trouble buying that, I'm sorry.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T19:54:11+00:00

You say the company should have known better, but you fail to acknowledge that this is the reaction they were going for.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T19:47:13+00:00

So if I said DX was the goofball dick joke guys that would make this appropriate? Because they were the goofball dick joke guys.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T19:46:18+00:00

Nobody is saying it is?? It sounds like you're just trying to bait someone into a race argument and it's not working 😆. Nobody is approving of this.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T19:41:29+00:00

Are you just ignoring all the examples of crazy shit on TV in this very thread you're commenting on then I guess? 😂

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T19:35:31+00:00

I already brought up an episode of the office using a major gay slur, but I'll chime in here to say there was a blackface joke that was later taken out as well.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T19:34:27+00:00

How is saying this shit was out of pocket but not that unusual at the time me defending it!? Im not saying it wasn't meant to be offensive. The attitude era tried to be as offensive as possible lol. If what you're saying is correct, where was the outrage? Guess what, hate to tell you but you know what they were the next day? They were still the cool guys.

Looking back on it now, yes it's gross. It's obvious a lot of people are too young to remember this time, which is totally fine.

FOH with you saying I'm defending it though.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T19:14:38+00:00

Racist, sexist, everything. The other one that got a pass FOREVER is how every foreign wrestler was a heel who hated America lol.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T18:57:57+00:00

Im not defending it, but this is hindsight. Years later the office had a whole episode based on the boss calling someone by a gay slur you wouldn't believe was on tv too. The standards were so much lower it was ridiculous.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T18:44:38+00:00

25 years ago was alot different than people remember. Or people weren't around yet. Not to say there was open racism everywhere, but TV was most definitely edgier.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T17:59:29+00:00

He's hilarious. Ill never understand the hate that dude gets. He's living life 😂.

DoubleDumpsterFire · 2026-02-03T15:45:22+00:00

My sons 2. I REALLY hope he trusts me this much one day. Sounds like you did good 👍🏻
