Line 96:
** Candice wasn't so much as fired for putting on weight so much as she was let go for being too injury-prone. Ironic considering how much mileage WWE gets/got out of Triple H and Batista who stay/stayed injured frequently during their tenures in the company.
** That's exactly the reason why Nora Greenwald aka Molly Holly quit altogether. By invoking [[Hollywood Homely]] to the point of [[Values Dissonance]], Molly went from hillbilly Juliet (Spike Dudley was the Romeo,) to [[The Comically Serious|a brunette no-nonsense prude]] to a [[Fat Monica]]. Never mind that she was credible enough to train other women or remain one of the few legit competitors in a growing era of [[Faux Action Girl|contest-winning models,]] Vince was so fixated on her being a "fat-ass" and '''NOT''' in the [[Baby Got Back]] kind of way that she finally got fed up and quit the business to do missionary work.
** Don't forget, Dawn Marie was fired because she got ''pregnant''. Johnny Ace, [[This Is Your Life|This is your]] [[
*** People need to realize that any time Vince uses "she was too fat" as the reason for why he fired a Diva, it's not the real reason. "She was too fat" is code for "That bitch wouldn't give me/one of my favorite big guys a lapdance", plain and simple. Vince no longer cares about the quality of women's wrestling and only cares about who will sleep with him and his big guys (hence why Michelle McCool was getting pushed to the moon). If he ''did'' care about women's wrestling, the Tramp Stamp Title wouldn't exist, half the Diva's wouldn't have even gotten out of development, and somebody '''credible''' (Kharma, [[Beth Phoenix]], Natalya, Gail Kim, AJ, Tamina, Melina, ''Jillian freaking Hall'') would be feuding for the Women's Championship.
*** If what you said about Vince firing female talent is true (which it's not) Vince would have enough sexual harassment and sexual discrimination lawsuits to make his head spin. Also half those names you mentioned have feuded for the title in the past.
Line 112:
*** This troper remembers that one very well. Linda shin kicks JR in the Sooners after telling him he's fired. Of course, this was all a ruse as JR needed time off for colon surgery. [[Real Life Writes the Plot|Vince playing Dr. Hiney]] in WWE's tasteless parody of JR's surgery deserves its own mention.
*** Yes it happened. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMKP2UHeOa8 Peter Schiff remembers].
* [[Michael Cole]] got a pair of [[Dethroning Moment of Suck
** The first was referring to a staged car accident on Raw as "The worst night of [[Bret Hart]]'s life." Just think about that for a second. [For those new to wrestling, there was the [[Montreal Screwjob]], the death of his brother [[Owen Hart]] in a WWE ring, the concussion from [[Goldberg]] that ended his career, and a stroke that guaranteed he'd probably never be able to wrestle another match again.]
** The second came at Wrestlemania, when he crapped all over Vickie Guererro's tribute to her late, great husband Eddie by calling her finisher a "Hog Splash." Somebody ''please'' fire this man. '''''Now!'''''
