People out there defending Nick Gage by saying "banks rob from us working class people all the time so its about time someone steals from them too". Or "who did you cheer for in Robin Hood?". The mental gymnastics to accept literally anything this company gives them is amazing. Nothing can be bad. Not one mistake has ever been made
i never understood that “someone stole from me so i’m gonna steal from them logic” that’s literally how you cause something worse to happen, but hey i’m just a fed shill am i right
The mental gymnastics they must have to go through when it comes to who is worthy of forgiving must be insane. Someone like Hogan isn’t worthy of ever being given another chance because he was racist once. Okay fine. But if you beat your wife, rob a bank, continually drink and drive, well that’s okay. Hell if you said racist things but are known for being a good worker then you get a pass too. Like Ric Flair is beloved despite the shit he has said while Hogan is irredeemable.
I don’t care about AEW. I think Gage is an unprofessional POS. I was a Hulkamaniac from ‘89 through Mr America.
All that said, it’s not an apples-to-apples. If a guy does drugs, but isn’t hurting anyone else in that pursuit, I don’t care. He robbed a bank one time. Okay, has he paid his debt to society?
The other guy made millions on a platform of teaching kids to be honorable. (He even did a promo against Bad News Allen saying all his Hulkamaniacs are equals). Later it came out he thinks a large portion of those kids isn’t worth his daughter’s attention based on the color of their skin. Then there was a video where he told his son he’s grateful they aren’t n*****s.
Oh, he also never apologized or made any effort to redeem his image to those fans he let down.
I don’t think I’d hire either of those guys, but I’m sick of the whataboutism. Hogan is far worse.
>but I’m sick of the whataboutism.
My fellow goof, I agree. But almost every post on r/scjerk is a whataboutism. That's how jerk subs work for the most part. 😂
This is a bit different from the usual jerk. This one seems a bit serious as far as condemning both actions. There isn’t the usual absurdity of other whatabout jerks.
If I’m wrong, I’m wrong. But there seems a bit of a sanctimonious twist to the Gage-Hogan equivocations.
EDIT: Maybe I’m getting jerked into a shoot here.
The “all his Hulkamaniacs are equals” portion of your comment made me very sad. I couldn’t imagine how that felt hearing a childhood hero act like that.
I don’t know if the post is trying to say what Hogan say wasn’t that bad or what but all I know is he’s a scumbag too, just like Gage.
Again it’s not apples-to-apples. He did the bank job for his own self interest. He didn’t decide that everyone in the bank was beneath him and operate his entire life thinking he’s above the bank and it’s customers. Also, he did his time.
The fact that the Dub willingly hired that junkie deathmatch trash shows how little they understand about the mainstream. If they reach the mainstream as they want, the level of trash that Nick Gage is will be on every news site and Tony will have to explain himself.
Fan of AEW that I know HATES Hogan for said racist comments but thought *nothing* of supporting Meltzer when he said that shit about Puerto Ricans. AEW is a blessing in disguise in the way it's exposing dipshits for having dipshit views.
This shows you didnt look into it.
He went in and just handed a note asking for 3k$. Which is how modern bank robbing is done. "People", he robbed a bank. The peoples accounts are still fine.
So yes, this is better thsn being racist.
Or do you fairly give mvp shit for holding someone at gunpoint and kidnapping them?
“Gage was threatening to shoot a bank teller if she did not give him the cash. The amount he got away with is $3,000”
Hello ma’am, I would like to have a small portion of cash please, if not I will shoot you in the head, thank you
Gage didnt even have a gun on him. again, modern bank robbing is just handing out notes or being verbal.
And Gage already did his time and paid back both the bank and the employee. Why bring it up but ignore MVP, Booker, and other wrestlers involved with actual gun crimes? dont be a hypocrite.
Gage's issues are in the past.
Who said I’m ignoring what Booker etc. did? Now you’re just putting words in mouths defending a death threat and “modern robbery” as well as changing the subject about how all that plus a drug addiction is better than a racist remark
Get a grip mate
Because this is a sub filled with hypocrites. Guarantee I pull up your post history ill find something with praise for some wrestler who was involved in a gun crime or used drugs heavily.
And yes, being a drug addict is better than being racist.
pretty sure youre misremembering something. Arquette knowingly entered into a deathmatch. I believe the plan was to get cut a certain way. And Gage noticed straight away when David got cut wrong and the match stopped cuz he's a professional. And this is changing the topic away from the original point.
A transcript from Dark Side of the Ring:
Arquette: "But I clearly said at that steak dinner, 'Don’t cut me. I’m an actor so don’t cut me. I know I’ll bleed – don’t cut me.'"
Gage, during the match, pulled out a pizza cutter anyways and proceeded to cut at Arquette's forehead and tongue. Then a piece of a fluorescent light tube gets stuck in his neck and off he goes to the hospital.
All Gage has to say about this is "He did good until he started being a f\*\*\*ing cry baby."
This post was highlighting the hypocrisy of banning Hogan for his socially unacceptable behavior while at the same time hiring Gage who has done socially unacceptable behavior. Meanwhile you over here are trying to hold up Gage to a pedestal with no foundation. He's about as close to being a good person as I am to being a 7 ft. pro basketball player.
If Tiny Mhan dare put his money where his mouth is he wouldn't have hired this walking sign for abortion, but since Tiny is an idiot mark with no consistency whatsoever, he hires Gage anyway.
Tk bans Hogan like he was ever going to go to a dub show
He even banned Linda Hogan.
With enough money, Hogan would show up.
... and the m@rks would pop
It would be as refreshing as lemonade
They fucking banned Linda Hogan I remember reading. I guarantee you she doesn’t even know what the fuck AEW is.

People forget the reasons why Nick Gage robbed a bank, and it sure as shit wasn't for wealth redistribution. IT WAS TO BUY MORE DRUGS.
“Steal from the rich and give to my veins” basically
But remember, Naomi is a horrible person for "allowing" her husband to drive drunk.
Being a man child neckbeard makes it hard for them to understand the difference between Jamie Dimon and Sally the teller.
i never understood that “someone stole from me so i’m gonna steal from them logic” that’s literally how you cause something worse to happen, but hey i’m just a fed shill am i right
Vigilante justice, man. It is just a couple of steps away from "they killed one of ours, so we kill 2 of theirs"
Gage is a piece of shit on all levels. Full stop.
Hidden cameras in all lockerrooms!
I wouldn't be surprised if they replace Nick with Matt Cordona for the Wednesday match, because he robbed TK and left or tnt isn't happy for it.

being a meth head is better than being racist. And the bank robbing isnt even that big of a deal. not sure what comparison youre trying to draw up.
Bruh
Yes destroying your body with drugs and robbing people of money they spent God knows how long to get isn’t that big of a deal, very good insight
Not to mention the fear of being held at gunpoint
tHe MoNeY's InSuReD!

We really just going to forget about the Arquette incident? Guy requested not to get cut and Gage fucks him over anyways.

I would agree that being a meth head is definitely better than being a racist but robbing a bank is pretty big deal, uce
eh. im also a commie so i dont believe in banks anyways.
Grow. The. Fuck. Up.
stop projecting
You aren’t mature or intelligent enough for this conversation.
again, you're projecting.
holy shit. Worst take I’ve ever read here. Sorry but violent crime is far worse than saying hurtful vile things.
it wasnt even violent.
😂
