His name is Chuck Taylor. Part of his schtick is trolling little kids in the audience. Hiiiiiiiilarious. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkR0r9mB6OQ also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4LJu9XUoIM

then he's doing his job. his job is to get the audience to hate him.

[–]cdsk 9 points10 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Ok, I'll admit that he's 'doing his job.' But what parent brings their little kids to something like that, knowing that'll happen?!

[–]hurpadurp 8 points9 points ago

He just scared them a bit. Chill.

[–]smpx 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Why can't the parent just explain things afterward, like one might after taking their child to a scary movie or halloween haunted house?

There's this utter fear that kids can't handle anything these days without suffering trauma. Get trolled by an entertainer or see a nipple slip on TV? Years of therapy.

[–]ERWINATOR 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

In their defense, I don't think they expected that to happen, just like I'm sure my parents didn't expect me to cry when they took me to see Pee Wee's Big Adventure. I also don't think it makes them bad parents to put a little faith in their kid to figure out the difference between fiction and reality, even if he gets his feelings hurt. That's just life. The show is largely in good fun, in fact here is a video of another kid getting revenge on the same wrestler for terrorizing kids: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0bTLkRxskw He'll be okay, he's no more scarred than I was of Large Marge. Lets all try not to take things so seriously.

Uh, how damaging do you think it is for a precious little child to get frightened for a few seconds?

[–]SyncopatedStranger 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The audience doesn't hate him. All the parents are clapping and laughing and a few kids are scared shitless.

[–]ERWINATOR 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

People are so upset by this, and I can't help but picture this the whole time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh2sWSVRrmo

Look seriously, its not that big a deal. America's Funniest Home Videos used to dedicate 5 minute montages of parents scaring kids. The Wizard of Oz, one of the most celebrated family films of all time, used to scare the shit out of kids when the flying monkeys came on screen. The parents are laughing because 1.) its funny, 2.) in all forms of entertainment, there are heroes, and villains who you are supposed to hate. As adults, they can recognize that even though he's acting in such a deplorable way, its FICTION and their child is in no real danger, and their child is just naive for falling for the gimmick. Take The Joker in The Dark Knight for example. I can sit there, and objectively watch the movie, and know the joker is a scary, mean person, without actually being scared or getting angry. A kid on the other hand would could be scared shitless. Sure its arguable that its funny or not when a kid falls for stuff like that, but can everyone just get off their high horse and stop treating this as child abuse? Seriously.

Its fairly entertaining if you go to the small shows. They are usually cheap and in the back of a bar so it's like going to a show with alcohol! Although the only one I ever saw was to see my midget friend compete. Now he is in WWE and I will never pay to go see one of those.

When I was a kid, I went to "Frontier Land" amusement park in Cherokee, NC. They had a train ride where actors dressed as train robbers would jump on board shooting cap gun six-shooters and then harass the passengers until the sheriff came.

Well, my brother had just been outfitted in a bunch of sheriff gear at the gift shop out front and jumped up and told the robbers to get off the train when they came in our car. The robber came right up to him and told him in a gruff voice to "SIT DOWN!". He flinched just like this kid, jumped back in his seat, and turned pale and didn't move the rest of the time they were on the train.

He has turned out okay. This kid will too. Sometimes you gotta scare kids to teach them who's boss.

[–]utterpedant 11 points12 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You don't mention your brother's age, so I assume he was a grown man when this took place.
It was his job as sheriff to keep the train free of bandits, and all it took was a gruff voice for him to kowtow?
I hope he had the fucking decency to resign in disgrace.

He's obviously the heel at some small local show. He overdid it, sure.

I've been to a show at a VW that was so small the guy went off the second rope and hit his head on the discoball hanging from the ceiling.

That's the character he is portraying, when he is a face (good guy) people will cheer him, when he is a heel (bad guy) people will boo him.
