Kong attacks Bubba the Love Sponge?

I think this is 100% work but Scherer is saying it's legit.

quote:
AngryMarks.com sent along the following recap of Hulk Hogan on the "Bubba the Love Sponge" radio program on Sirus radio this morning:

Hulk Hogan was a guest on this morning�s Bubba the Love Sponge program and revealed that the reason Bubba the Love Sponge was sent home from yesterday�s production meeting was because he was assaulted by TNA star Awesome Kong. After listening to the show for nearly the last hour, including Hogan�s comments, comments from Bubba the Love Sponge�s co-hosts, and three phone calls to Jeff Jarrett (where Jarret hung up on Bubba twice and then spent ten minutes arguing), I can�t say for sure if this is a work or a shoot, but those are the claims. However, Dave Scherer at PWInsider.com is confirming through two sources that this is being treated as legitimate.

Unfortunately I did not catch the start of the show when Hogan came on, but Hogan starts to rib Bubba the Love Sponge about being �sucker punched� by Awesome Kong. Bubba the Love Sponge then starts to give details.

BUBBA: She was wearing wrestling gear, and she came in on me and sucker punched me right on my left cheek, and I was like, what�s going on� then she came out me again, hit me again in the mouth, and she goes, �This if for Haiti! This is for Haiti!� and I�m like �What is going on?� Then she hits me again� Finally I put my left hand out and push her away from me, and she comes at me again and I just cover up, because I cannot fight back on a woman. Not only will I be fired from TNA, which I probably am, but my radio career is gone if I take a woman out!

HOGAN: I tell you what, though, after what happened, if you had clocked her you�d have got away with it.

BUBBA: Maybe on the streets I�d have gotten away with it, but, how would the media have spun that had I clocked her?

HOGAN: What nobody knows, and this is the real truth, that there were certain people there, y�know, and of course they have to run it by me and Dixie� she should get off the property, she should be fired immediately, that�s it. It was so violent. You could have actually lost an eye, you could have had your teeth knocked out. But, to give you your creedo, you are the one who said no, don�t fire her.

BUBBA: No, I don�t want you to fire her.

MANSON: Now, I�m confused. Does Hogan think that this is a funny incident?

BUBBA: No, no he�s not. He knows how serious it is. He was being a dick earlier� but I don�t think he agrees with it. And, you know what, they said we were going to fire her and I said no, don�t fire her. Now, if she�s done other stuff, I can�t help what happens to her on other situations, but don�t fire her for sucker punching me, I don�t want to cost anybody their job.

HOGAN: I think this is really just the beginning of a match made in heaven.

BUBBA: No, that�s fine� that�s fine. But I tell you one thing, Hogan. If you� you better not call it pro wrestling, you might as well put the cage up and make it MMA because I will not work, I promise you that. You�re not going to embarrass me like that, and be that much of a loose cannon in this industry�

MANSON: Oh now you�re gonna kick her ass? I don�t think you want a piece of her in the cage.

BUBBA: Let me ask you, you�re the only person who has a cool head. Had I defended myself, and not covered up, and just blocked what the remaining of what she put in. Had I actually fought her, and done well, what would I be facing right now?

HOGAN: Well, first off, you�d have killed her. She�s real good at throwing a sucker punch, but the way she was swinging at you, and everything, you could have shot right between her arms and knocked her out. It wouldn�t have been cool, y�know, there would be all kind of heat� You did the right thing, y�know, because you did not hit her back, and she was swinging wild and she�s out of her mind� you did the right thing, but at the end of the day it comes back to you and me hanging out together. You know you�re going to get heat, I told you this a long time ago. BUT, don�t put this one on me, because you stirred that up.

BUBBA: How did I? I�m not putting this on you, but you lead by example� I�m gonna be honest, man, nobody there likes me. And they think, hold on, Hogan, they think I�m in there� I�m not a wrestler, I�m not going to take anybody�s job, I�m not gonna take anybody�s backstage announcing gig. I�m there to help you and try to get the TNA product going and working. I�m not a boss, I�m not a agent, I�m not nothing there and everybody� a lot of the old dudes, but AJ Styles gives me dirty looks�

HOGAN: Well the word I got on the street last night was that Russo stirred this up, and Russo put her up to it.

BUBBA: I don�t agree with that.

HOGAN: It�s true! I heard it!

MANSON: Now, did she give you a finishing move, because she�s known for a body avalanche, a gorilla press slam�

BUBBA: No, no�

HOGAN: She shoulda pushed Bubba over her head, splashed Bubba, and then just bounced off the wall and done two or three belly splashes�

MANSON: Awesome Kong, she�s so awesome�

BUBBA: Wait until my lawyers call Dixie up today.

HOGAN: I just think you should get there early today, and just like she sucker punched you, I think because Russo set this up, you should just knock his assout.

BUBBA: Well, I dunno� I don�t think Russo did this�

HOGAN: He did it, I�m telling you as your friend! I wouldn�t lie to you!

BUBBA: Hogan, I love you to death, but you�re the biggest worker� hold on. You�re taking something that really did happen and trying to make it an angle And the bottom line is, y�know what? All the wrestling sheets, you should know this is real because I didn�t talk about it, and I was upset so bad last night. Hogan, I mean, God, Dixie cannot want to deal with all this Bubba drama�

HOGAN: No, this is just your chance to even the score, straighten this out. You just go right up to Russo when he�s not looking and you just sucker punch him like she sucker punched you.

BUBBA: It will be more of a fight between Russo and I, he�s a pretty big dude, than me and Kong, but that isn�t going to be fair.

HOGAN: You can beat Russo up! Especially if you sucker punch him!

BUBBA: Manson, let me tell you about this Awesome Kong chick. She put three of them on my right cheek that you wouldn�t believe. If you look at my forearms they�re all scratched up. And she�s all, like it�s Braveheart, �HAAAITIII! HAAAIIITI!� And I�m like what� and there�s a woman named Mandy who saw it all� and then she took a glass container and threw it down.

MANSON: That�s why a camera should be on you at all times. That�s priceless footage.

HOGAN: I thought it was great!

BUBBA: But, hey, Hogan, what you don�t realize that they have �eyes in the sky� there, did you know that? They have � that whole entire building has surveillance on it. I�m gonna go get that tape.

HOGAN: Well I can�t wait to see it because I can�t believe how quick she dropped your ass!

BUBBA: She happened to meet me right there, where you guys� just outside the door, you know where it happened, right? I was going to go talk to Val Venis about something, I was heading to Catering, and she met me just down that hallway a little bit before you go down to Eric�s office. She was by herself and she was coming to find me. Just minutes before that, I was in that little office area where you and Eric did that shoot, talking to Hall and Nash and Sixx-Pac. So she was coming to find me, regardless where I was. And what if she had done it right there? She�d have got an ass-whipping by the boys!

HOGAN: By the boys? There�d have been nobody around. The only reason you covered up is because everybody was watching, and you knew you had to behave. I think if you had been by herself you would have counter clocked her ass.

BUBBA: Yeah, but she happened to catch me kinda in a dead area. What if we were shooting and she came in and did that, I mean, she was going to find me regardless of where I was.

HOGAN: Oh, yeah, she was on the hunt! I�ve been around this business for a long time, and I�ve seen Dirty Dan Spivey just destroy Adrian Adonis to the point where we had to stop that. I�ve seen Paul Orndorff, naked, with a pair of shower shoes, kick Vader�s head in. But, without a doubt, when she hit you in your mouth, I thought she broke your jaw, I thought that was one of the hardest sucker punches I�ve ever seen thrown in this business, where it connected.

BUBBA: But it didn�t drop me!

HOGAN: All joking aside, I�m really proud of you for not knocking her out, bro, because that wouldn�t be cool.

BUBBA: I�m gonna be honest with you, Hogan. After her third punch to me, in my mind I�m like, do I take her down with a double-leg, and then just pummel her. Or do I try to bring my right around� and in my head in the quarter-second I had to think about I was like, �You�re done, you�re over! You�ll be off the radio!� Women�s right will get you, look what happened when I barbecued a hog�

HOGAN: If you had hit her, you might have killed her. I�m serious, because the way you were stiff-arming her, she was flailing, she was so out of her mind, if you had sucker punched her between the eyes you might have killed her. I�m proud of you for not doing it, BUT� but what happened, she deserved it.

BUBBA: Dixie has a nice work environment� don�t I, have a talent there, have a right to walk around and not get beat up?

HOGAN: You didn�t get beat up, you just got beat on!

BUBBA: And it was a triple Lindy, three of them connected boom-boom-boom. And then I was like, man� and then, on the third one, I got my left hand out, and I�m keeping her off, my hand�s on like her collarbone area, and at that point she was wailing around, and I was like, do I drop her, do I shoot a double or single leg, or do I get down on a knee and cover up�

HOGAN: Oh, she�d have kicked your brains in if you had got down on your knee.

BUBBA: I know� but, do I just � hopefully somebody gets her off me, so if I don�t defend myself I can�t get in trouble. I was worried about lawsuits, women�s activists and getting in trouble if I had fought back and dropped her, or tried, or even attempted to..

HOGAN: When you Hulked up� and you could see that your eyeballs were rolling back like a shark, and you were going to knock her out. .. but all the sudden you had presence of mind just to cover up and to do the rope-a-dope which was the way to go�

BUBBA: Which makes me look like a pussy�

HOGAN: No, it didn�t make you look like a pussy. If you had hurt that woman, it wouldn�t have been cool. Even though you could have gotten away with it, it still wouldn�t have been cool.

BUBBA: Brent, what�s your spin on it? By the way, I will tell you this, on the way home I called Brent, he�s my confidant, I�m like, Brent, I�m really tore up with this. Brent, you wern�t happy about it, were you?

BRENT: No, I�m still not happy about it. If I were you, and I�m shooting now, I�m being 100% serious, I�d never work another day in my life, and the only correspondence that they would get from me would be through Carlson and Wisner.

HOGAN: Oh, please!

BUBBA: Well, I�m just sayin�� to each their own.

BRENT: Hostile work environment. It�s all day�slam dunk!

BUBBA: Well, it is, it is all day, but� I dunno.

HOGAN: You did the right thing, it�s all good, man. It ain�t no big deal.

BUBBA: It�s no big deal to you, you�re not the one whose getting punked out when you go to work today.

HOGAN: I thought it was awesome. AWESOME KONG RULES!

BUBBA: Go ahead and put her over, Hogan. It�s called lack of leadership, my friend, she obviously has the mindset that you ain�t shit and you don�t care. She went after your number one guy, and what are you going to do about it, old timer? You�re all bark and no bite there, buddy!

HOGAN: I�m going to book you and Russo together, because he�s the one who set it up.

BUBBA: Or the fact that he set it up and you�re not doing anything.

HOGAN: I�m setting it up!

BUBBA: You�re not even sticking up for me on this.

HOGAN: Oh, Jesus Christ, it was a girl, a 350-pound girl, calm down!� I was just worried about your shoulder, I knew you had hurt your shoulder trying to hold that monster off.

BUBBA: Oh, my shoulder is amped�

From here they go back to discussing Kevin Nash, Matt Morgan and other guys that Bubba the Love Sponge likes, and some discussion about a resort a mutual friend owns. Bubba the Love Sponge confirmed he was coming to a 2 PM meeting at TNA offices, Hogan said he was relieved that Bubba the Love Sponge was going to show up. Bubba the Love Sponge then goes on about Internet sites trying to get him fired and Dixie Carter having to put out �Bubba fires�. Hogan says Bubba is doing a good job, and they�re just getting started, and tells him to just let it all go.

Hogan promised to straighten everything out today, and then made more jokes about getting beat up by a woman. Bubba then wonders what would have happened if this had happened in front of his kids. Hogan reiterates that this was all Russo�s fault, and Russo fired him in front of his own kids, so he wouldn�t put that past him. Hogan wraps up the discussion apologizing on behalf of Awesome Kong and TNA Wrestling for what happened. A full recap of this morning�s Bubba the Love Sponge show is available on BubbaWrapUp.com, and you can listen to the show at 3 PM ET on Sirius� Howard 101 satellite this afternoon.

Bubba Tweeted something to the effect of "Fuck Hati[sic]!!! We have problems here in America that need attention more than those poor foreigners" or something along those lines. Kong has been very proactive about getting the wrestlers in TNA to donate to the people down in Haiti. She heard about what he'd written and punched him in his fat fucking face. Good for her.

I'm not sure what kind of "work" TNA can get out of a fake backstage brawl over insensitive comments made about a disaster in Haiti where lots of people died. It wouldn't make any sense. It's possible that they're doing it, it just wouldn't make any sense.

Ahhh, thanks. That kinda lends credence to it being real, doesn't it? Unless Bubba being an insensitive jerk is part of the work? Who knows.

This is funny, though:

BUBBA: I don�t agree with that.

HOGAN: It�s true! I heard it!

MANSON: Now, did she give you a finishing move, because she�s known for a body avalanche, a gorilla press slam�

BUBBA: No, no�

HOGAN: She shoulda pushed Bubba over her head, splashed Bubba, and then just bounced off the wall and done two or three belly splashes�

MANSON: Awesome Kong, she�s so awesome�

The only "logic" I can come up with behind a work would be that its a way for Bubba to walk out of the company with a little dignity... kinda. I mean, he got beat up by a woman but now he wasn't fired because he's a piece of shit who said terrible things... he's fired because backwards politics meant that his attacker was chosen over him, the victim. Meanwhile Kong doesn't get hurt by the story because she looks like a bad ass who kicked the ass of someone who deserved it. Not many people will care that she behaved like a criminal.

I'm assuming and hoping its a work until Bubba shows up badly beaten. And I'm hoping its just to write Bubba out until it shows up on screen. I have to.

I just hope that if it IS real this doesn't screw Kong because if Kong really did attack a man and savagely beat him I can't say I could blame TNA for punishing her. Whether he was a piece of shit or not.

I don't get why Hogan keeps bring up Russo in this whole thing. Russo put Kong up to it? That doesn't make any sense.

Also, I love Hogan saying if Bubba would have fought back, he would have put Kong down. Hahahahahaha, Kong would have beaten the fucking shit out of him.

I love the idea that Hogan spends his whole day winding people up to try and get them to start a fight with Russo, no matter how absurd the premise for the fight may be. I'm cracking up thinking about it just rereading the transcript.

Using dickhead remarks about a tragedy in Haiti to start a feud with a female wrestler and a radio dj/backstage interviewer? Reeks of the dying days of WCW.

Well if it turns up on Impact or something you know it's a work...

If not, well I'm not keen on the "us vs them" mentality that seems to be surfacing there.

Real or work, Hogan is the biggest piece of human trash I can possibly imagine. Here's hoping his eventual suicide happens much sooner than we think.

This is kind of horrible to me. Not that she beat him up, I laughed my ass off about that. It could only have been better if it was JB doing it for some revenge.

What's horrrible to me is that all we can see it as is some potential backstage BS that Hogan is using against his enemies and to justify his friends leaving and stuff.

God, the more I read about him and how he spent most of his career dicking over people and being an insufferable jerk (who, according to his latest book, should be pitied for being abused and taken advantage of by his wife) to everyone who doesn't immediatly seem to agree with him, the more and more it seems to tarnish everything he did, at least to me.





It was like teabagging a bear cub in front of its mother. The sheer shocking audacity of it is the only thing that saved you.

This is making the rounds already:



As with CMP's post above, ProWrestling.net is reporting that Kong is in Orlando and will be working tonight�s television taping, after being sent home yesterday. *Sigh of relief* According to Jason Powell, the lockerroom are firmly behind Kong.

Bubba is an idiot. Even if someone feels that way about a disaster like that, they should just keep their damn mouth shut. The only reason anyone does something like that is to get attention and get people all up in arms over what he's said. That's it. There's no other reason to publicly state the things he did. Well, he wanted to get people riled up, and he got his wish. He just probably didn't expect to get his ass handed to him for it. But I'm glad he did. Fuck him.

But I don't think the wrestlers are backing Kong because she's one of them, they're backing her because Bubba the Love Sponge is a fucking dumbass shock jock and the entire TNA house show roster was just 3 days ago doing a charity show for Haiti. So, for him not to expect backlash from the roster was dumb and for anyone to expect the wrestlers to back him over Kong when none of them agree with him is asinine.

Yeah. I think Kong behaved like a thug (assuming the story is true) and wouldn't blame Bubba for pressing legal charges against her or TNA for punishing her, but at the same time I can understand and sympathize with her. A decent human being who has gone out of her way to raise money for support of a horrible tragedy kicked the ass of a piece of shit who said unnecessary and insensitive things about such action, stuff any good minded person should object to. You don't have to be her peer or friend to be on her side, you just have to think Bubba deserved to get his ass kicked for saying "Fuck Haiti."

Plus at the moment "unprovoked" is Bubba's side of the story so for all we know there's a missing part of the story that makes Bubba the instigator and Kong's attack provoked.

I get that, dude. And if Kong wanted to get in his face and tell him exactly what she thought about those ignorant comments then she was well within her rights to do so. Its when the fists started flying that she crossed the line and made him the victim that I begin to shake my head.

This situation reminds me a lot of the Jericho situation with the fan that everyone got so ruffled up over about a year ago, only Jericho could at least use the self-defense argument even if a few of us disagreed with it. Kong wasn't being physically threatened, so this just makes her look like a bully who hits people who say things she doesn't like. Now I'm not suggesting that Kong is actually like that but you have to look at this from every angle and as much of a piece of garbage as Bubba most likely is, that doesn't jusify Kong beating his ass, even if the humanitarian in me who wants to see ignorant mouthbreathers like him disappear off the planet thinks he deserves it. And if FistHiccups wasn't committed to posting like a self-righteous dick his point would have been "of course a locker room full of testerone fueled wrestlers are going to stand behind one of their own, who used violence rather than civil discourse to settle a disagreement even though that person broke the law for no reason other than sheer anger". But he couldn't say that because he'd much rather be an arrogant asshole. And that wouldn't give you or I any more right to assault him than it did Kong the right to assault Bubba. So now Kong finds herself in a predictament where she could be justifiably fired and as much as that would disappoint me I woudn't really be able to argue against it.

We live in a world full of stupid assholes who regularly say hateful and ignorant things. That doesn't mean we can attack them just because we disagree, even though damn near everybody secretly thinks they might deserve it.

Cig, you're taking the word of Bubba the Love Sponge, a man who claims he could have beat up Kong, that this was unprovoked. I think that bears repeating:

You believe in a man named Bubba the Love Sponge.

But we have no idea what happened. Kong may have gone to Bubba and said that she didn't like what he said and he should apologize for it. And knowing Bubba's personality, he probably would have responded with something like, "I'm surprised you weren't there. They seem like your people."

At which point I'm okay with Kong slugging him.

Especially considering he says this (taken from the link Paddlefoot posted above):

quote:
Elsewhere on the show, the idiot refers to Kong as �that b*tch� and a �fat piece of sh*t�. He later goes onto say: �She�s not even Haitian, she�s a black girl from LA.�






Is everyone mad here?
Of course they are, and you are too... otherwise, you wouldn't have come here.
