HulkFearsAustin Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 No its not a rant about tasteless the Tim White segment was, infact it is something from the segment, that seemingly no one has picked up upon or even mentionied. After he shots himself, a section of fans chant ''Eddie, Eddie, Eddie'' Surely this is more distasteful than the segment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Enforcer Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I thought the whole thing was distasteful and a complete and utter waste of time, as for the fans chanting, I think they were just so bored by it they resorted to chanting anything and Eddie was soemoen they loved so it wa shis name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HulkFearsAustin Posted December 19, 2005 Author Share Posted December 19, 2005 I dont think that was the case. They just happened to chant his name after he 'killed' himself. Anyway, the point i was trying to make was that people will just critise WWE for anything, and ignore everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Well its a point badly made......Im not sure how you expected anyone to get that from what you said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poland74 Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 It was a waste of time but I truely am not offended by any part of it like a lot of guys on here seem to be. I don't think the segment was necessary and I think it was probably wrong to do it, but we all know it's not real. If WWE carried this on on another day, we'll probably discover TimWhite never shot himself he shot at something else and that would be their way of getting out of it. I just ignore these bad segments and move on, theres no point getting in a flap about it is there? Its done and they or us can't go back and change it.

Sav Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 So what you're doing is concentrating on the small section of fans who MAY have chanted 'Eddie' in response to the Tim White crap which so obviously overshadows a few fans. The WWE deserve all the criticism it gets for that pointless angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not offended by it, it takes alot to offend me, its just the waste of time that gets me, there was no need for it and it was pointless to do it I dont think that was the case. They just happened to chant his name after he 'killed' himself. Did you hear the other chants of fans too before anyone mentioned Eddie?, they were bored there was shouts of 'boring' and 'lets get on with the action' this tells me they were bored, how many times has there been an Eddie chant too on shows, just because they started as Tim 'shot' himself means nothing have you ever thoguht it was a coincidence??

Dutt Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I think it's a f*cking disgrace they portrayed that on TV to be honest, moreso on a Pay Per View, what's the damn point? I know they're trying to get the Cell over here but my God was that the most disgusting thing I've seen for a long time. Why not just stop it before the gun antics? It wasn't too bad before that, WWE went way to far this time. End Rant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Styles Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 It didn't offend me but i didn't really like it... i though it was tastless and another of Vince McMahon and Co's attempts to be funny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MojoPogo Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Even i've almost had enough of Vince's stubborn refusal to learn....and the Shelton Benjamin thing, well......words fail me. Go to TNA Shelton, you're talents might be appreciated there mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Crow Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I woulda thought the Eddie chant was to remind Vince that someone has just died and that a stupid angle like that really wasn't needed. Not that he'd listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.C. Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Maybe it's time for us to stop trying to judge WWE as a sport and look at it as a comedy-drama TV show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as im concerned its no longer about the wrestling, in fact im not sure its about entertainment either. Im sure its all about Vince's ego.

wyndorf Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I don't think it was distasteful, disgusting or offensive. Bizarre would be the best way to describe it, and in a bizarre kinda way, it was funny. Perhaps not the actual skit itself, but the fact that someone thought it up, Tim White wanted to shill his pub so bad that he agreed to it and that it got the green light to be shown live on ppv. Oh, and best wishes to Tim's friends and family..................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Kane Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I'm not even that shocked. You come to expect this sort thing from the WWE these days. I'm not sure how someone could have thought of that though. Hmmm, Tim White........injured in Hell In The Cell................Hell In The Cell later tonight............I know! Lets pretend he killed himself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave7g Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 This made me laugh a little... From WO... They are playing up the angle from last night, as if you go to The Friendly Tap (or at least if you did last night), it was closed down with a sign on the door saying "Closed due to a family emergency."

jimi kane Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 In an amazingly distasteful skit, former WWE ref Tim White made us think he blew his head off with a shotgun. Horrible scene, a new low in the WWE. Not only was it sick, but Tazz and Micheal Cole are like "did I just see what I think I saw?" and shrug the whole thing off. Made me sick.:evil :tdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Icon Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 If the angle had gone on much longer I would have shot Tim myself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOB Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I think the question every wwe fan needs to ask is- What the hell is going on in vinces head? 1st they blow up eddies low rider,then he calls booker t a N***er on ppv, and now tim whites "suicide", what is he gonna do next,no wonder people are switching to TNA!!!
