The week just started & we already have a contender for dumbass comment of the week:
”I think if people bring those things into the realm of wrestling, and it changes their willingness to watch, that’s not a customer that I am catering to. I grew up in a time of old-school heat. Old-school heat was the Polish guy told the German guy, using World War II references, that he was gonna beat him up. Very politically incorrect. When Tyrus walks through the door, he brings the heat, and if you’re not gonna watch him, then you’re not a wrestling fan. I’m not booking a charity. I’m booking a professional wrestling company. There are people that have a problem with the New York Post. If that was going to deny you opportunities in the world to appear on a show, or write for another magazine, that’s not a world that I want to live in. I believe that dissenting voices should have a seat at the table and let the American public decide which is more important on any particular argument. I don’t believe in canceling out a voice because you’re not comfortable with their perspective, and that’s somehow supposed to translate into professional wrestling.”
(Politics aside as I couldn't give a flying fuck whether he's Dem, Rep, Lib or a fuckin White Martian for that matter. Corgan's argument may as well be like this "If you aren't gonna watch this overweight, out of shape, old, awful promo, idiot, joke character who can't even do the most basic meat and potatoes match without gassing out and if anyone remembers him at all it is because he was a clown jobber in the wwe dancing to the ring and losing every day, then you are not a wrestling fan"), but of course Corgan completely ignores this fact because he's got some sort of infatuation with G-Rilla for some reason.
During an interview with NYPost.com, NWA president Billy Corgan addressed heat that Tyrus (formerly Brody’s Clay) has gotten due to his political commentary on Fox News…
