cuey82 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 It's implying that cross dressing for a man is humiliating, hence its a stipulation for the loser. But thank you I take onboard they're named due to their links to an already existing name rather than them implicating they are a more cultured brand of wrestling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuey82 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 No nor am I but in today's society it's not necessarily something that should be frowned upon, I'm pretty sure the transvestite and/or transsexual community would be offended by the notion dressing in such a way is a forfeit or punishment for being a loser in a situation. In this day in age it shouldnt be a humiliation for a straight man to be seen as a transvestite, plus a good portion of transvestites are straight they just prefer to dress as a women. Weirdly I know this to be true as our family solicitor is a transvestite and he's happily married with children Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuey82 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Not really initially I found it amusing that a company with culture in its title would book a match with such an uncultured stipulation but then you corrected me that they are just named after the website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEGION Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 You're reading way too much into it because it's just a stipulation to a match. There have been other comedy promotions with stipulations such as "Loser has to wear a silly looking hat" and such. It's just a wrestling-thing to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowley Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Why isn't there a heel with a militant SJW gimmick in wrestling? Could be perfect for a promotion like CZW. Reading about how transgendered people might get triggered by "loser wears a dress" stipulations makes me think there's potential for some awesome promos there.

Crowley Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Oh god, that sound! You know you watch too much wrestling when all you have to do is scroll past that symbol to hear it echoing in your head. I think Right to Censor were supposed to be more of a parody of pro censorship groups and conservative christians, but you're right, they're pretty similar ideas. I guess an evil SJW faction would be kind of like the updated version. I loved hating Right to Censor, so I wish someone would do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Kazu Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 I watched the first ep of this and fell asleep (literally) during the main event, has it gotten better? Anything worth watching or nah? Just from reading on this page about a 'loser has to wear a dress' match I'm not too encouraged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuey82 Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 I think people are missing the point of what I was trying to say it wasn't a big PC right on unber-liberal statement it was trying to point out the irony of a company calling itself "cultured" and having such a stupid uncultured gimmick match that's all. I get its wrestling and wrestling will always have gimmick matches, I mistakingly thought the company was called "culutured" as they were trying to differentiate that they were somehow above other companies in their way of thinking but I realise now it's named just after the website Telling someone to shut up on a disussion board is a bit childish aswell you know, it's kind of the point of having the board, to discuss things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardd Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Don't care if it's childish. I'm sick of everything "implying" something offensive these days. It's getting ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuey82 Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Again you're missing my point I'm not focusing on anything being offensive that was not the point, the point was I (ill) thought the company was calling itself cultured and had then come up with a neanderthal match stipulation. Im not offended by it, I found it amusing when I (ill) thought the company was portraying itself as intellectual but came up with a 2 year olds idea for a match. Its like calling your company "Evolve" yet always having regressive 60s style British wrestling matches on your cards.....oh wait (I'm kidding I actually love evolve) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

classiq. Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 During last week’s WhatCulture Pro Wrestling tapings in Newcastle, The Tag Rope had the opportunity to sit down and speak with the 2016 Best of the Super Juniors, Will Ospreay. When the subject of Vader was raised, Ospreay launched into an expletive-laden tirade that perhaps seemed out of character for the 23-year-old. Ospreay faces Vader on Friday August 12 for Revolution Pro Wrestling. Below are some quotes from Ospreay on the current Vader feud: On Vader calling him out publicly: “I’ve got such a problem with the guy because he’s directed so much abuse at me, and the fact is now that he’s been called out about it, he’s saying, ‘Oh, Will Ospreay could be good, Will Ospreay could be this’. And it’s like, ‘No mate, you got caught out because everyone’s battering you’”. On his match against Vader: “Here’s what’s going to happen. I am going to *Censored* Vader up big-time. It’s not even going to be a wrestling match; it’s going to be a fight. And I am going to embarrass him, I am going to outflip him, I am going to do everything that pisses him off and I’m going to show everybody why wrestling has evolved, and the evolution starts with me.” On EVOLVE’s contract offer: “It’s a very selfish thing I’m about to say, but I need to think about me. And not just the brand of Will Ospreay. I’ve had other offers come in and I’m just trying to swim in an ocean full of talent and trying to stay relevant and trying to keep doing what I do. It’s been an incredible journey and I want to keep it going, I want to help out, I want to do more things.” http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/735435-will-ospreay-lambasts-vader-says-he-going-to-embarrass-him-in-their-match-addresses-evolve-contract-offer-from-heyman-and-more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
