I just used them for the first time, so ill see.

Picked up a Punk shirt with proceeds going to Brodies family. Foley doing the same too.

Yeah was thinking the same maybe getting a Punk and Brodie tee but if it hits that hard I might leave it off.

I doubt it gets to you before the month is out but let me know if you get hit with an import tax if you can, would really appreciate it.

I didnt think of Export Tax.

Its hit and miss. Some get caught some dont. Its only 1 shirt so Im hoping the small package slips by.

Big fan of Lee but not a fan of the shirts. Glad I can support without buying a DO shirt.

Theyve been a class act thus far. Cant fault Cody or Khan or others. They are taking care of Brodies family.

Top notch people. Every one of them.

You're forgetting the real hero of the hour - MJF, for taking an outstanding bump for the young man.

Replace the last one with ROH and they may be on to something.

WWE don't even recognise the others existence unless unavoidable.

I dunno if any American company will take a chance on him.

Finally gets over and now his chances are over.

And that is the end of his career. No one will want to touch him.
Even if he exited wrestling for a couple of years to lay low and let stuff blow over. It would still be brought back up online and talked about again upon his return.

He could do what those who can't get booked anymore do - start your own promotion, but would anyone of any name value work for him.

I could maybe see Marty getting one more chance in Japan down the line, otherwise I wouldn't expect AEW or WWE to take a chance on him.

I think he's been relatively quiet on the situation compared to Joey Ryan so it will be interesting to see where he's at in a year or two.

His sitiation was different in that he was high up in ROH and just recently signed a new contract.

Look at Velveteen Dream. Shine has gone off him completely to the point that its hard to watch him at all. WWE need to get rid.

No argument there. No interest in watching Dream anymore rightly or wrongly.

I imagine WWE were backing him based on what he told them, along with the lack of evidence involved.

But the mud has certainly stuck whether hes innocent or guilty. WWE pushed him hard and then had to cool him off to get until the heat died down.

But the damage is done at this stage. IMO its given viewers a reason to change the channel to AEW and WWE should just cut their loses.

Scrull is similary damaged and I doubt AEW will risk it. Theyve done so much right to build their reputation that hes not worth it no matter who he is friends with.

Has he appeared on BTE since?

Lads, you are talking like Scurrl is the worst offender in history. He's not even the worst offender currently working on TV. You all own shirts of domestic abusers, you cheer same.

If you tar scurll with 1 brush (rightly so) then use that same criteria on everyone.

He WILL get hired somewhere without a problem and you will all forget about it. Just like most of you have forgotten about the brave people who spoke out recently.

Nice generalizations there.


So you tar everyone with that same brush good man.

This absolutism and assumptions in your posts are not fair comments.

We are discussing facts and forming opinions based on facts.

I think its fair to assume that Marty will not be picked up by an American company, well not AEW or WWE. Impact perhaps.

I personally havent judged or pre judged him. I know of the accusations but I personally dont know the truth. Based off the accusations and his departure from ROH, I have formed the opinion that its very unlikely AEW or WWE will hire him.

I havent bought a tee shirt of any known abuser. So please dont make sweeping statements or pre judgements of me or others.

Who are we not treating equally here? Who have we given a free pass on for anything?

Instead of making sweeping statements and unfair generalizations , how about tell us why he you believe he will be hired without a problem?

Foley should know that

A. Vince doesn't really run that account.

B. Vince most likeky doesn't value his political opinion.

C. Vince is a Republican

D. Vinces wife is actively backing Donald's recount angle.

Quarantining is messing with Foleys concussion riddled mind.
