That's adorable, I love how the guy getting the crap "beat" out of him is like, "No! No! AAAAHHHH!"

[–]Biddybink 13 points14 points ago

you realize that's the same guy from the original post, right?

[–]gynoceros 21 points22 points ago

You mean the guy who's obviously playing a heel (the "bad guy" in wrestling) and was just staying in character?

If my son was into wrestling and one of the guys fucked with him like that, I'd feel like I got my money's worth. Especially after having seen the YouTube clip showing he doesn't have a problem letting a kid slap him around a little.

    If it makes everyone feel better, the guy that got hit was the same guy who scarred the kid up top. His name is Chuck Taylor and he does stuff like this all the time, he is also entertaining as hell.

        Favorited. This is will be cited as evidence in any future arguments where I maintain that pro wrestling is the gayest live performance in America that's not on Broadway. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

          Theatrical Wrestling as I like to call it, is pretty amusing when you think of it like a fucked up soap opera. I won tickets to a WWF show a loooong time ago (back when the original Ultimate Warrior was around). It was more fun than I assumed it'd be.

          [–]jonosvision 34 points35 points ago

          Growing up I loved watching wrestling with my Dad, he called it the man's soap opera.

                My dad started a wrestling company when I was in like 7th - 8th grade. It was a lot of fun at the time - I loved going to shows and meeting famous wrestlers. The most famous ones he signed were Sabu, The Sandman, Buff Bagwell, and a few others. People get really really into it.

                MECW if anyone is interested / started in southern IL/IN. He always said it would get big and rival WWF - then he went to jail because like my father, the financial backer was a con artist.

                tl/dr: Dad opened wrestling company, was gaining popularity, then he went to jail.

                        Douchebag of the year? Hardly. The guy is clearly a professional wrestler, who more than likely plays a heel (bad guy) and is just staying in character.

                        If the kid had ran into this wrestler say, at IHOP, I doubt he would be this way. But because they're still at the venue of the show, he's staying in character.

                        It's a cheap way to get heat (people to dislike you), but it's not out of the ordinary for a bad guy wrestler.

                        [–]sirprizes 479 points480 points ago

                        Also the Dad at the side is clearly not upset and is laughing. If the guy actually was a douchebag I think the Dad would be pissed.

                                Actually the kids dad posted the original video and said in the comments that his son wanted to go find him in the parking lot after the evening was over. and fight him. But yeah the wrestlers name is Chuck Taylor, and he plays a heel, and that's one of his stage gimmicks is scaring little kids and yelling in their faces and stuff. There's a lot of videos on Youtube of Chuck Taylor acting like a big meany to the kids.

                                  Not always. I had a friend who played a heel manager and nearly got into a very real fistfight with the father of a daughter he verbally berated while in character. He had to keep goading the guy on, until the bouncers came by to restrain the guy. The guy ended up waiting outside for my friend after the show and he had to make a quick getaway.

                                  I've seen stuff like this happen before, but the other way around with a wrestler really going after a fan. At an IWA-MS the wrestler Joker almost attacked one of the fans. This fan was an IWA-MS regular and a really weird guy. I can't remember what he was screaming at Joker, but Joker just lost it and went after the guy. If I remember correctly Ian Rotten, Mickie Knuckles (and possible the ring announcer Ben Jordan) were holding Joker back.

                                  I posted this in another part of this thread, but I was actually at the show where the .gif is from, it was an IWA-MS show in Joliet, IL

                                        That was always part of the allure of professional wrestling to me, and why I always cheered for the bad guy. They're always clean, "boo that guy!" type of fun.

Finally Davey ran and grabbed a t-shirt from the merch table, offered it to her. When she reached for it, he snatched it away.

                                              After the show he probably went out of his way to do something nice for the kid.

                                              Wrestlers are generally nice guys. Remember, it's actually a fairly small business, if you are really a jackass you're usually not going to make it very far.

                                                  Yeah I got a laugh from that. Had to watch it a second time at first to make sure it was him.

                                                    That's a pretty messed up thing to say considering all she did was comfort her grandchild. Judging the quality of a person based on their looks is a little shallow, no?

                                                            This is Chuck Taylor. He was a wrestler in a company called IWA Mid South and currently wrestled for DGUSA and EVOLVE as well as Chikara. His gimmick at the time was being a normal looking guy who ran up to scare children. You can find videos of this online, and the character was quite popular due to its absurdity. TL;DR It's just a character, calm down.

                                                            If I remember correctly from when I was interested in pro wrestling, that would be Chuck Taylor from Chikara. Scaring children is part of his gimmick. He's a heel. Chikara doesn't really take anything seriously. An invisible grenade is one of the wrestler's finishing moves.

                                                            Edit: Video of Chuck Taylor using the invisible grenade.

                                                            Eh, the kid probably loved it and will remember this for the rest of his life. Better than a generic hand shake with no real engagement of his fans.

                                                                    Back in about 88 (I was 7ish years old) I was sitting the back seat of my parents car and my Dad pulls up to his old high school to visit a friend. All of the sudden George "The Animal" Steele pops his head into the car and screams "Hey boy what did you do with my hair!" I jumped to the other side of the car, screamed and briefly cried before I realized he is a really cool guy.

                                                                    I didnt know it at the time but one of my favorite WWF stars was my Dad's football and wrestling coach in high school. It is a very fond memory of mine.. I am sure this wrestler made good with him later.

                                                                    Edit: I share a fond memory and get downvoted.. I guess Karma is serious business around here lol.

If i was the little kid I would of thought "how cool! this is real!" and got really excited, kind of like when you meet ppl in character at disney land. Why crush the little guys imagination, the last thing I would want when meeting a mean "wrester" (fake or not) is for him to just start acting normal and nice.

Referring to events or interviews as being a "chore" means that the event/interview has been "kayfabed" or staged, or is part of a wrestling angle while being passed off as legitimate. Kayfabe has also evolved to become a code word of sorts for maintaining this "reality" within the realm of the general public."

At the time, they seemed to be in the middle of a feud so in order to keep up appearances they never once spoke to each other in the gym, even though they still left in the same car. That being said, HBK is the man.
