Jeff Hardy is Sssmokin'! | WrestleZone Forums

By Robert King
D-Man, I gots a question .. my man: when did we all mutate into big, giant VAGINAS?

You're telling me that a PRO WRESTLING company is promoting the use of harmful substances by its most camera-friendly workers? This is stupid on so many levels.

1. We're watching half-naked men beat the shit out of eachother for money and titles. If you complain about TNA promoting harmful substances by showing Hardy smoking, then you might as well bitch your ass off about Bischoff trying to cheaply ruin Anderson's dreams of becoming a Champion by sticking him in a match with Hardy right after he had a grueling bout with Matt Morgan. That's a VERY bad employer-employee relationship. It's promoting violence and recklessness.

If smoking promotes bad substances, and that's bad, then why is wrestling on our TV screens when it promotes violence? Oh right! BECAUSE IT'S FAKE! The characters in it are ALSO fake. What they do is a part of their persona. We all know that this Hardy is basically the real Hardy but on pot, but it's a pro wrestling character, just like a movie character. Jack Sparrow is LOVED by children all around the globe and he's a stinkin' drunk who keeps asking where the rum is!

2. Can you count the times you've seen someone use drugs or smokes cigarettes in a movie when you were a child? How many cartoon characters like generals and sea captains have a cigar in their mouths? We all saw Terminator when we were kids, we loved that shit, I remember him smoking. What I don't remember is people coming out saying it promotes harmful substances. You know, while he was whoopin' the shit out of fellow aliens.

We're all fans of a product that promotes a lot of bad things. Guess what. We love it BECAUSE of the bad things. We're all fucked up! We like the violence! We like people going through tables and getting smacked in the head with chairs! FOR FUCK'S SAKE Hardy got famous by jumping off high places and somehow never dying and we LOVED that!

Don't tell me this crap about government and society and caring about human health and blah blah blah blah blah. You like wrestling, I like wrestling, we enjoy the matches and these men and women are feeling PAIN during them, even when they're not selling. This is wrestling. It promotes a lot of bad shit.

Besides, I highly doubt that a horde of kids stole their dad's cigarettes and started dragging on them sons of bitches just because Hardy did. I accidentally saw porn when I was a child, I didn't go around humping the crap out of my female peers.

Give me a break. The Government. Don't get me started on The Government. The people *****fier. "Oh he stepped on my toe! I have rights! He's a risk to my health!". "Oh, Hardy smoked a cigarette on TV! He promotes bad crap! wah!". Ugh ...

TNA is TV-14. They can do whatever the fuck they want as long as it falls in the TV-14 category. WWE killed a man on SmackDown, I don't see people objecting against that. Maybe because they're not idiots.

I find it mind-blowing that people complain about edgy things in PRO FREAKING WRESTLING! He smoked a freaking cigarette he didn't give birth to a hand for crying out loud.
