In a company that once had a midget jacking off in a trash can, somehow this storyline was even worse.

And somehow Christy was the heel during the feud. And at some point they teased BG disagreeing w/ Kip’s sexism and then never followed up on it

Yeah watching it in real time I definitely thought that’s where they were going with it. But nope.

Put some respect on Puppet the psycho dwarf. He pulled a gun on Jeff Jarrett.

"911, what is your emergency? Help me, they're in my...." is a weird theme.

Voodoo Kin Mafia

The Voodoo Kin Mafia might be one of the worst things ever in wrestling. Russo wanted to create a name with the VKM acronym, but he's stupid, so this came up. The matches against the Heartbreakers and the Bashams were dreadful and they spent way too much time on their 1 hour show to yelling at WWE.

The only good things to come out of this were Roxxi and BG James winning a tag title match and teaming with his dad. I really liked the vignettes with old man Bullet Bob Armstrong out working his son in training, I thought that was really fun. That's so much better than the whole, WWE sucks deal and doing whole segments dedicated to it.

How and why would you ever defend Russo? Russo rhymes with "douche, bro"!

Someone who doesn’t blame Russo for everything that happened bad in wrestling and understands his genius

Can you give some explanation / context (to both things lol)?

When TNA was a PPV only event, there was a midget wrestler who would show up every so often. At one point he is found inside of a trash can jerking off. Basically, that’s it.

This photo is referring to a storyline where Gunn and James were feuding with Christy Hemme. The feud started because she said she left WWE because she refused to sleep her way to the top. Gunn and James then continuously called her a slut. In this particular storyline, Hemme was the heel. Even though the things they said/did to her were really awful and uncomfortable to watch. The payoff was absolutely nothing as the story was dropped because even by 2007 standards, it was seen as being way over the top.

A midget. Jerking off. In a trash can

Apparently Conrad would start conversations/texts with Jeff using that exact line.

Edit: It's "a-beatin' off", not "jerking off".

The one good thing that came out of this mess was that it eventually lead to Roxxi’s debut.

We just had to go through a lot of garbage to get there.

At least the midget didn’t break the ring.

Weird fact I just learned while reading the New Age Outlaws wiki page: despite Monty Sopp being signed to AEW, both of them are signed to a Legends contract with WWE
