Wait, didn't Peyton get implants long before she was ever called up?


They both got work done during the period between NXT and call-up

She might have already had them done? But even Alexa earlier this year was told to make her implants bigger

Wait. How big is Peyton Royce? Because from Lopens post you would assume fat but all the google pictures I saw show her as normal sized and her weight is listed as 132lbs

When your weight becomes relevant to your ability to do your job effectively it no longer becomes shaming though.


What do you say in a case like Peytons though where the chest weight the company (allegedly) told her to add has made her less effective at her job?

How did we get on Peyton adding 50 pounds

If Ellsworth is over on that level then theres no issue. A wrestlers image should be in service of getting them over, not the other way around.

Triple H pretty famously got on TV and shat on CM Punks skinny fat physique but people sure as heck wanted Punk as Champion more than him

We should be treating male body shaming MORE seriously, not the other way around.


I disagree. If you're not in shape and you're in the business of wrestling it's being bad at an aspect of your job. It's not "body shaming" to acknowledge this. Like it's not saying "you need to be less fat to not be a terrible person" it's "you need to be less fat to be a success in wrestling." It's less body shaming and more laziness shaming in the case of a wrestler.

I don't want a bunch of Kevin Owenses on the roster. That's not what wrestling is. A big part of wrestling should be maintaining your body to help create the image of a larger than life character-- where to draw the line is important and I would argue that wrestling perhaps puts it a bit too deeply in at times, but it's definitely somewhere well before hitting a 180 lb Peyton Royce too.


There have been many mega-successful overweight wrestlers though.

I tend to agree with Smuffin. It's not really done from a place of malice so it doesn't matter. I mean if it was about actual weight you'd wonder with Peyton Royce, but a guy who is saying a girl her size is fat would have had a lot more than one slip up. It wouldn't really be a "gotcha" moment.

I guess what I'm saying is the only time it's inappropriate to make that comment is when it doesn't make sense. If she actually had gained 50 lbs it would also be okay since image is an important part of wrestling and news relevant. Men get depushed for weight fluctuations and not fitting an image just as much as a woman would. It's a shallow business.


Also I think this is the wrong direction to go with it.

We should be treating male body shaming MORE seriously, not the other way around.

Its an image business is how you get steroid problems

I guess my larger question here is, is it never appropriate to point out that a woman has gained weight, or become "less attractive" for some other reason?


This is where it gets taken out of context.

He was using that as code for implants

I'd like to apologize to you. You are an exceedingly attractive woman. I do realize the lengths and pressures on women in the entertainment world to maintain unnatural looks at times and am glad you pointed this out.


As someone who has listened to a ton of Dave, I feel pretty confident saying that he doesnt MEAN to come across as stupidly as he does.

This is fucking garbage.


He has since given a kind of tome deaf apology

There is a deep problem with WWE and women still being told to get implants on the main roster, but Dave is just too careless to know how to phrase it without it sounding like hes attacking the woman. And Alvarez is even less woke than Dave.

This is where someone like Satin could probably find the right angle of criticism where Dave just cant because of his entrenched outdated understanding of image issues

Intrinsically no, but they do exist and have value as societal constructs. It's not hard to suss out, for example, that causing harm to your fellow humans isn't cool as a member of human society. If you want to play the RULES OF NATURE card, that's fine, but don't expect to still be welcomed as a member of civilization.
