Well, that's enough reason for me not to go back to watching WWE.

I can't seem to start watching that Vince documentary on Netflix, because I just don't want to see his disgusting fucking face and since I know the ending won't be with him behind bars getting shat on by other inmates.

[Nice Guy Eddie]

I would watch a show featuring Vince getting shat on by inmates.

I wouldn't, but I would love the idea of it happening and @Nice Guy Eddie watching it!

Not to get too close to certain non-board worthy topics. But a certain person’s nomination for Secretary of Education has led to a tidbit from an attorney that Linda and Vince are separated

Which pretty much anybody paying any attention figured out awhile ago. (And it was also mentioned 2 years ago, but you know how internet wrestling sites are)

Best comment I saw on this (not taking credit): "Maybe Vince will be interested in her again now that she's a secretary."

I would totally take credit for that. That's a good line.

Shane Douglas is a Trump guy or at the very least has anti-leftist leanings.

She totally needs to add Dean Douglas to her staff to figure out this education stuff.

I wonder how much recent events will effect the feds investigating Vince

He will probably be pardoned before the case can even come to trial.

I remember how in 1992 WCW, Jesse Ventura always used to call Shane Douglas an idiot because he listened to Rush Limbaugh.

I honestly don't understand how they got away with the ring boy case.  They essentially ran an interstate child sex trafficking ring and fired a couple people and said, "nothing to see here."  There is an overwhelming amount of evidence to say that this was a feature and not a flaw in the company's operation for at least a decade and probably much longer.  All of the current charges against McMahon could have been prevented back then if anyone was actually interested in looking into this issue. 

Seriously, how many companies on earth recruit minors to do work across state lines?  It can't be many, pretty much every labor law would make it a huge pain in the ass.  I used to work retail and a decent amount of our staff were minors and it just made everything harder than it needed to be.  They couldn't work after a certain time, they couldn't work in certain departments, there is just an extra layer of bullshit to deal with.  No one doing anything legitimate would ever hire minors to travel from state to state doing work that an 18-year-old would do.

I'm sure it was all under the table.  Pun definitely not intended.

Linda was also very much part of the Tom Cole story, trying to help him go to school and then cut bait when he struggled including doing the "tut tut, I'm disappointed in you" parental figure guilt trip.

Anybody waiting for "justice" against a rich and/or powerful person is going to be waiting a long time.  The only exception to this rule is if the person in question screwed over other rich and powerful people, like Madoff.

[odessasteps]

Or "justice" comes from a vigilante, like the Healthcare ceo.

I've long believed that the way media portrays the French as cowardly is a conspiracy to make sure we never pay attention to how quickly they are willing to tell their government to fuck off.

I hope that it at least was for a SHIT load of money. Because of, you know...

[Ramo2653]

Between the payments to the SEC and to WWE/TKO is was just shy of 2 million, based on reporting. Granted that's the accounting case the SEC had going on since Vince didn't disclose those payments to the other women properly with the board since it was determined that any payments like that needed to be included even if Vince paid for it on his own since the payments were to protect his rep along with the rep of WWE.

The case with Janel Grant and the feds looking into it are still ongoing. Vince worded his statement vague on purpose of course.

Of course with the new admin coming into power in 10-days or so, this could all just get swept under the rug.

At least you can’t get a presidential pardon for a civil suit.
