Lol I always found it absurd that he didn’t even hold up his end of the bargain with the UFC. They literally were paying for the big mouth trash talker that became famous in WWE. It was the one skill that he brought to the table to help contribute to this massive company giving him a ridiculous opportunity. What did he do instead? Just played it straight and was the most boring person on the roster. So no talent or skills and now removed his promotional ability because he didn’t feel like doing it lol. That’s incredible balls. Just felt like he deserved to be there and didn’t need to do anything in return. Dude just lived in a fantasy camp for four years training and fighting UFC fights he didn’t belong in lol.

Yes, Tebow can hit a ball, just not at a major league level. Yet once again Brooks, you fail to see the failure of your biased reasoning. Tebow did not go straight to mlb and cut in front of so many that have played the sport for most of their lives. You, on the other hand, went straight to the ufc, buying into your own pro wrasslin' hype, talked a big game, refused to shake Gall's hand before the fight, then got humiliated in the worst way imaginable.

You have to be an athlete to be a pro wrestler?? No, you just have to be an actor.

[@MrBumbaclyde]

+Sean Reid i dont think you put too much thought into this at all. scripted conclusions have nothing to do with the physicality and athletism required to reach those conclusions. just think about how many sports have scripted routines. virtually all of them? a wrestling match isnt much different from something like a breakdancing battle besides the winner being scripted. i hope you wouldnt claim that only requires actors. no stunt double comes in for the wrestler in the middle of their routines. is brock lesnar not an athlete? would you have called him an actor before he went to mma? i watch wrestling once every year or 2 for some laughs but that doesnt mean i dont respect them as athletes in their own right. sounds like you just hate the phony nature of pro wrestling but the wrestlers are still 100% athletes or at the very least athletic. king kong buddy was very athletic compared to other people his size that can barely move at all let alone do serious cardio for 20 minutes
