Rene is so good. He lets his guests speak. He is honest. Doesn’t try to hype himself up because he doesn’t have to. Thank you for what you do. I hope more people see this. You are so much more than your WWE run.
If everyone’s life is put under a a microscope and that’s the worse we’ve heard? I’m sure you were perfect over the years. I swear Peiple try to read people down to their level nowadays because they themselves are horrified people
He didn't bully anyone Read Chris Kanyons book, when the office found out he was gay, they put him in a closet on smackdown in a Boy George outfit taker legit beat the living hell out of him, because Chris wanted to come out
Then you got Mark Henry's response to finding out Darren Young was gay Gives him a hug. "Why didn't you tell me a long time ago! A bunch of my family is gay!"
I still like Taker I don’t know any of these guys ppl just need to learn song worship these celebrities/entertainers we don’t know how they’re behind the scenes
These wrestlers sound so sad. Grown men living in absolute fear of other grown men who play pretend. "Oh no, the UNDERTAKER isn't going to like my gay little dance!" I'm sure he'd be fine with it if Daddy Vince told him to do it on TV though.
Bro legit this is what I’m thinking. Sure, they can make or break a persons push SADLY, but man, it’s sad to see grown ass men just not stand up for themselves. I love taker but bro was just the mafia boss to all this bullshit. Whole lot of scummy bullying going on and he just watched and laughed fr

Lmao but okay fanboy, I bet you would do everything he demanded of you out of "respect" just like all these other weak ass man children. "You wouldn't last a month in that locker room!!!!' As if I would ever be enough of a mark to risk my health and life for a company that won't even cover my insurance. Stfu boy.
@@supermegaguy666 I doubt that last line. Most fake wrestlers are over glorified male cheer leaders. Gtfo here with that tough man shit. The last wwe guy who tried that tough man shit was cm punk and see what it did for him.

He outweighs most his opponents, and even when faced with a legit grappler like frank mir, got his ass handed to him due to a basic submission. Lmao. Grow up, nigga.
Jesús Christ the build up to his nervous explanation had me burst out laughing Almost like something from South Park “to be honest guys.. I just think it was a little gay” - Randy Marsh
Some of these stories are making me look at some of these wrestlers in a different light. I guess never meet you heroes. Poor Chad they must of rigged the shit outta him man
Another OVW talent called up and then run out for BS reasons. WWE had no idea what they had with some of these guys, whether it be the Tolands, Brent Albright, Elijah Burke, Johnny Jeter, and many more. It was BS like this that began causing me to see through a lot of WWE's shenanigans. I'd be reading about these guys in PWI, hyped to see a new talent to shake up the roster, only for them to immediately get saddled with an asinine gimmick or just put on TV and forgotten about.
I mean once Undertaker retired and started doing more interviews he started to show his true self and how he was backstage, these shoot interviews are the receipts Guess it wasnt just the Golden age and the Kliq creating a toxic environment
I like Taker but he’s a slave to Vince. The way Vince said “I put taker through hell and back” so arrogantly, how did any of this make you a better person? More money for sure it’s like Taker loves his sadistic master. His wife Michelle is straight up. I like her a lot. I’m just talking based on gossip y’all but heck this is what this is for anyways. I also don’t like how back in the day it was known that Melina got bullied by these men in wrestlers court yelling and screaming at her as she’s an easy crier. And I can best believe that Melina cried not so much out of fear but out of helplessness that if these guys were girls her size she would mess them up. The allegations about her dating life? And Batista stood up for her allegedly. And remember guys on Raw ivory talking about wrestlers court and she just kept talking to them and instead of Taker it was Triple H. Another gripe is Vince. He likes muscular muscle men. He used to tout them out back in the day making them wreck every wrestler in the ring and then it seemed he got bored of them and left them out to the wolves.
They did that to Melina because she threw Angelina Loves bag in the trash and told that's where she belongs. Melina got everything she deserved for that.
The key to beat hazing is to just no sell it and make them regret it. It's stupid but I learned it was better to take that beating for the one day, rather than getting pinched every day going forward. I don't condone it, but just like that Kenny Rogers song says "Sometimes you have to fight when you're a man". I actually think female bully's are worse to each other. They attack their victims mentally and behind each other's backs. Most guys are just immature dicks. That's what these 40 year old wrestlers remind me of.
Sounds like a modern times Diff'rent Strokes with Arnold and Dudley at the bike shop, hanging out with Mr Horton. When did they sit and watch the adult cartoons?
Absolutely pathetic behaviour from people who should have known better. I'm glad we're having Taker exposed eventually. A shame tis stuff has largely emerged after he has retired with wealth and respect.
@@ThunderJuice I imagine Michelle is not cheap either. lol Same woman who tells the world he's not her type & that she didn't wanna date him, but did so because he wouldn't leave her alone. And told then world that her father thinks he's overrated & will be the first to say it. LOL! ALLEGEDLY she treats him like shit when there's no cameras around. And if it's true, I think "no better for him." Be a good dose of karma. But again, ONLY IF IT'S TRUE.
