Not okay, Brother: WWE scrubs away Hulk Hogan from their history completely - Polidicks

This shit is ridiculous, who cares if someone said nigger? It's not a big deal, stop being so sensitive. I can't wait until Hogan kills gawker.

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;48284032]First Kojima and now Hogan....[/QUOTE] Don't worry, I heard Kiefer Sutherland will replace Hogan.

This isn't really a big deal. We've all said something racist at one point.

[QUOTE=Fat White Lump;48284034]This shit is ridiculous, who cares if someone said nigger? It's not a big deal, stop being so sensitive. I can't wait until Hogan kills gawker.[/QUOTE] If that post is anything to go by, and it's the only thing to go by at this point, liberal use of nigger is not really cool at all. I don't think you can really argue this; it's not even about not wanting to offend each special snowflake, it's just an immature word and one that has a lot of hateful history behind it. Like, go hang out on /b/ with the other Freshmen if you want to make nigger jokes or just use the word liberally.

WWE always over reacts like this. I get removing him from TV and such, but to try to "erase" him is just silly.

So wait. The two best sources are the [I]National Enquirer[/I] and [I]Gawker[/I]? Both of them have made fake stories in the past, unless NE has posted the actual transcript in image form I'm not believing this shit.

[QUOTE=Yummy Pie;48284132]WWE always over reacts like this. I get removing him from TV and such, but to try to "erase" him is just silly.[/QUOTE] There's no way they can go full Benoit. Hogan's a huge part of their history.

I feel like WWE's doing the same thing Apple did with the confederate flags on the app store: remove everything and wait for the smoke to clear before putting stuff back up. It's a shame that this happened, but judging someone based on a recording of their personal life from several years ago is the dumbest fucking thing, considering how much the world culture has changed since then

Not believing a fucking word of this unless theres actual solid confirmation.

[QUOTE=Higginz511;48282476]They pulled him from Tough Enough and removed him from the WWE Hall of Fame. [url]http://www.wwe.com/superstars/halloffame[/url][/QUOTE] So Donald Trump, an arguably worse human being, gets to stay on there? :v:

This is pretty huge. I can understand a damnatio memoriae for what Benoit did, but this is something Hogan said 4 years ago, and he's apologized. Hulk Hogan and Hulkamania is huge in WWE. Can't wait for the Hogan chants on RAW

[QUOTE=Jojje;48285074]this is something Hogan said 4 years ago, and he's apologized. [/QUOTE] Hogan claims it was 8 years ago.

Why do public figures like Louis C.K. say nigger in his main act and gets an applause, but Hulk Hogan saying it just won't stand? It's just a word people get over it.

I want proof. Audible proof.

This is ridiculous, he said nigger, not "gas the kikes, race war now" or anything you could ascribe to Ben Garrison.

[QUOTE=Lanopo;48285213]Why do public figures like Louis C.K. say nigger in his main act and gets an applause, but Hulk Hogan saying it just won't stand?

The Gawker network as a whole is such a disgusting pile of excrement that I don't even care any more that some of its sites occasionally post decent, informative stuff. The whole thing needs to be scrubbed from existence for the benefit of humankind.

[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;48285290]This is ridiculous, he said nigger, not "gas the kikes, race war now" or anything you could ascribe to Ben Garrison.[/QUOTE] I'm not saying it's confirmed, but from what people are saying he said "fucking niggers" after claiming he was racist. It wasn't as innocent as reading the word from the dictionary.

Hulk Hogan's always been a shitbag from what I gather, this was honestly just a matter of time.

Hogan was always described as a royal piece of shit backstage, so honestly him being a blatant racist doesn't surprise me a bit.

[QUOTE=Speed Of Dark;48282954]First thing that came to my head. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZszUb5-bA_U[/media][/QUOTE] That whole promo is gold, especially Angle saying the one person in history he'd want to make tap out would be Jesus.

And Angle still got cheered over Cena

They must have some proof of something huge sitting in their office or something for all this to happen. It would have been a really dumb move for the wwe/f/g to dissociate themselves from Hulk Hogan,their (still) biggest drawcard, just on a whim. Benoit had to commit a muder-suicide to get the same treatment.

For those wonder this is what the video allegedly contains [QUOTE]Using language so hate-filled and vile it would shock even his most ardent fans, Hulk brazenly blustered to Heather Clem – the wife of his former pal Bubba “The Love Sponge,” with whom he was covertly filmed having sex with in 2012 – that he was an unabashed “racist." "I guess we’re all a little racist," he crowed on the tape, multiple sources have confirmed exclusively to The ENQUIRER. Despite his TV image as a born-again Christian, the tapes prove that Hulk is a very different man off camera! In a startling exchange, the 61-year-old told Clem – who he sued for invasion of privacy after their XXX tape was leaked to a website – about his frustrations with blonde bombshell Brooke, 27. "She is making some real bad decisions now," Hulk said, sources tell us. "My daughter Brooke jumped sides on me. I spent $2-3 million on her music career, I’ve done everything like a jackass for her.” The bitter bodybuilder continued, "The one option Brooke had, Brooke’s career besides me, is [to] sell beach records." At that point on the tape, the former "Hogan Knows Best” star bemoaned how a "black billionaire guy" had offered to fund her music career. He also attempts to use bizarre, twisted logic in an attempt to justify his bigotry at the man. "I don’t know if Brooke was f*cking the black guy’s son," Hulk raved, the sources add. "I mean, I don’t have double standards. I mean, I am a racist, to a point, f*cking n*ggers. But then when it comes to nice people and sh*t, and whatever." Then, in a tirade to rival the racism embarrassments suffered by Mel Gibson and "Dog The Bounty Hunter," Hulk unloaded even more hatred! According to sources, he said: "I mean, I’d rather if she was going to f*ck some n*gger, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n*gger worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player! "I guess we’re all a little racist. Fucking n*gger."[/QUOTE] This is from the National Enquirer so I'd take it with a grain of salt, but Hogan has publicly apologized for it so there are at least parts of it that are true.

That's uh. Really not that horrible. Bad sure, but career ending and a scrub from a event you helped build?

I don't even care about what Hogan may have said, I just want Gawker burned down. Kill 'em all.

I hope it turns out that Gawker and the Enquirer colluded and they both end up shut down.
