re: Dark Side Of The Ring: Chris Kanyon

... and now we get to the WWE stuff in full.

He basically campaigned to get his job back after he came out, as the already had Orlando Jordan in the pipeline to be the first openly gay wrestler on the roster, and got a letter from Stephanie McMahon saying "I'll get back to you" and never did, then he started doing the Howard Stern show claiming he was blackballed for being a gay wrestler.

The response to the latter was John Cena saying he was no good and Flair doing an interview with them saying he was disappointed Kanyon was blaming everyone else for his own shortcomings.


Cena went over the top with his statements, IMHO, as Kanyon was good but had shite to work with but Flair was right in that Kanyon, AS OF THAT MOMENT, was not good enough to make it back to WWE.
