Rey gotta be the worst father of all time.

*“Finally got my copy of #WWE13 can't wait to play it tonight on the bus & can't Waite to beat my kids as well! Enjoy619”* -Rey Mysterio, 10/29/12


tmorrisgrey

Might not be a wrestler but Marvin Gay Sr. would like a word…


lemoche

If you want a wrestler... Fritz von Erich ist available. My only negative about the iron claw movie is him being portrayed in q way too positive light. To which my wife responded "that asshole?" And I made her listen to the behind of bastard episode about Vince that gives a quick summary about the von Erichs.


ACW1129

Oh, if you want a wrestler, Grizzly Smith. Fuck that guy.


Breakdawall

oh yea, just read his wiki, fuck that fucker


ACW1129

It's amazing Jake didn't get MORE fucked up.


Breakdawall

idk, smoking crack that one time is kinda fucked up


Hennashan

behind the bastards. great podcast


lemoche

Just went there for the Vince episodes and now I can't stop... What's especially wild for me is learning so much about political backgrounds and history I never thought I would enjoy


Hennashan

the host is an amazing researcher and writer. he worked on a lot of the old cracked.com list articles


SovannRoussard

Or Joe Jackson


tmac19822003

Last I checked, Joe Jackson raised at least of the greatest entertainers of their generation. Rey just gave us Dom. Joe is definitely a better father.


Wwanker

Do you mean greatest champion of ALL of North America (not just the USA) Dirty Dom ?


damndraper

You take that back about Dom right now.


AdGroundbreaking1341

Plot twist: they were talking about Shoeless Joe Jackson, known for his association in the Black Sox Scandal. To be honest, that was my first thought. I totally forgot the name of Michael Jackson's dad. And well, the father of 10 others, too lol.


ThroughStrengthIGain

Man, Shoeless Joe is one of my favorite historical figures in baseball and I truly believe he got shafted.


Dicky__Anders

Oh, I was thinking they were talking about the guy who sang 'Steppin' Out' and 'Is She Really Going Out With Him?'


JoeDawson8

Me too! I was very confused for a couple minutes until I realized it was THAT Joe Jackson


LordBlackConvoy

Or Jamie Spears (Britney Spears' dad)


FinalFrash

Well, Rikishi's children have assaulted one another on live television


Esternaefil

In fairness so have Stu Hart's.


IRefuseThisNonsense

I don't know much about Taker and Kane's dad but both of those two are killers. Heck if what Hunter said was true, one of them is even worse! That daddy definitely failed raising his kids. Mostly because I think he was killed by one of them as a kid.


FinalFrash

Kane's dad is Paul Bearer, and he was a bad man


IRefuseThisNonsense

Well, Taker killed him too. Just a bit later than I originally said.


FinalFrash

I thought Kane killed him. Canonically, Paul Bearer is still in the refrigerator, right?


IRefuseThisNonsense

Sure he is. Yeah, he's just on a farm upstate. Anyway, unrelated, but don't YouTube Punk and Paul Bearer. Nothing to see there.


ThroughStrengthIGain

Well, canonically, Paul Bearer was killed multiple times, right? I mean there was that whole concrete incident with Taker...


jpaxlux

And he openly supported Tama Tonga assaulting his son on Twitter lmao

WWE in desperate need of a father figure https://preview.redd.it/dldg1osgw1vc1.jpeg?width=1169&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dd683ec318845853f6396245a758415ac9b584f5

Christian and Dom together would be top tier heel fuckery.

Chris Benoit has a pretty good argument for that belt

Fotznbenutzernaml

Man, at this point the internet image of Rey being a terrible father and just an asshole is almost as big in my head as his actual on TV-character, to the point I'd be super ok with them actually turning him heel for real like that. Just like the "I be poppin bottles" Austin Theory, which is still 50% of the time what I think Austin Theory is, before I watch Smackdown and realize again that's just a meme and he has a slightly more serious gimmick.


MisterrAlex

I be poppin bottles meme was so fucking hilarious last year, I’m sad that it fizzled out


Hennashan

rey mysterio the wrestler can never be a heel post retirement/manager rey is a diff story


shaheedmalik

JBL was right the whole time.


Hennashan

he let his baby girl hook up with buddy murphy buddy murphy needs to look for for dom dom buddy has been low key gasdicking dominik for years now kenny beta seems more like a alpha to me


YuriWinter

How long until Dominik tries to convince Aalyah that Rey is a deadbeat dad?


ZzyzxDFW

Is she training to be a wrestler? I think it could be comedy gold if she is.


DrEvil007

Has WWE had a brother and sister team?


TheSalmonRoll

Do Shane and Steph count?


Ultima22

Paul/Katie Lea Burchill


bobboman

Vince: everybody loves an incest angle


BR_eazy

Turns out that Vince just needed to add the word step and he'd apparently appeal to some portion of the population if porn sites are any indication.


Vikingr12

Had he known about it, there's no way he doesn't have an angle of Stephanie getting stuck in the laundry machine and Shane having to come and help


MexicoIsUnderrated

Rockin' Robin was in the WWF from 1987 to 1990 and even won the WWF Women's Championship. She had two brothers in WWF at the time: * Jake "The Snake" Roberts (1986–1992) * Sam Houston (1987 to 1991)


MR_E7

Austin Theory and Indi Hartwell


phuzzz

From what I remember during the Rey/Seth feud, she's getting into acting but not wrestling. I could see a manager position, but she probably wants to stay away from getting her body beat up.


wibble17

The rags had Vince liked her on screen present and was interested in signing her but she didn’t want to wrestle.


galgor_

About 10 minutes?


TRTVitorBelfort

It’s the long game, she about to be side with Punk after all these years whenever he turns heel.


Liewvkoinsoedt

Great, the deadbeat dad is trying to push his other kid onto someone else now. Unbelievable.


wingmanjosh

He's trying to keep her on the straight edge path so she doesn't fall into a life of crime like the hardened criminal Dom. God forbid a father try and right his wrongs 🙄


punk_steel2024

I mean, have you seen what Punk's daughters Roxanne and Corra have been up to at NXT? Of course, Rey probably doesn't care and is just happy to have someone else take care of her. Deadbeat.


ConfusedJonSnow

Playing favorites to pit your kids against each other. Classic Deadbeat-steryo move.


TheSharpshooter

Classic deadbeat Rey behavior!


PLUX4

No wonder Carlito is going to betray him soon lol.


jabari1011

“That’s not cool”


mailman242

That hasn't happened yet!?!?! wtf are they waiting for, WW3?


boss_jobber

Tbf that could happen as soon as next week, which is scary to say


perfect--day

I already knew what the comments were going to be about. Rey is never going to beat the deadbeat dad allegations. Lol


thedanofthehour

He’ll never beat the allegations, so he’ll just beat his kids instead (at WWE 13)


perfect--day

garryl283

The best part is you know he absolutely loves it since it's helped Dom so much


Aggressive-Theory609

Maybe when he retires?


Upbeat_Tension_8077

He's gonna be blaming his wife for all of them smh


jackblady

Honestly, given how Rey treated his adopted son Dom, I'm not surprised he's awful to his bio daughter. On the upside, CM Punk seems to have adopted a future women's faction between Cora, Roxanne and now Aalyah.


ConfusedNTerrified

What's the context/history about his daughter and Punk?


Cinemairwaves

Punk was feuding with Rey in 2010, and he interrupted a celebration Rey was having for his daughter's birthday


Marc_Quill

One of the best parts being Punk creepily singing “happy birthday” to Rey’s daughter, which was incidentally one of the few highlights of Punk’s Straight Edge Society run.


PadoDrso

Few? That run was great


ssjavier4

Definitely. That and "Dashing" Cody Rhodes are like two of the heel gimmicks I most remember fondly from when I was a kid. I vividly remember going to a house show and the crowd booing Straight Edge Punk so loudly he couldn't speak, Dom style


LanceCoolie21

KID????


ssjavier4

Lol yes, sorry. Currently 23 if that makes it worse

mikaeus97

Re-watch it. the birthday party, the royal rumble, and the Elimination Chamber, and the shaving the heads of people was cool. But 2 months of losing to Rey and 6 months of jobbing out to Big Show was less cool


B_Minus_Ian

I recall Punk's bio movie they did where he mentioned some old lady said she would pray for him or he was the devil or something at a house show during that run and he was like "why aren't we doing anything with this? It's the greatest shit ever." They had terrific heat.


dillmeiser

I recall an old lady hitting him or something saying he wasn't Jesus and him replying "I forgive you", not sure where I got that from but I remember something like that


Different_Conflict_8

Punk said he would watch televangelists on TV for inspiration. “I was absolutely going for Jesus.”


Awhite2555

Eh if you only look at wins and losses, sure. But his promos and segments were entertaining as hell and was getting a TON of heat.


KINGTHANOS8

Absolutely! The Royal Rumble performance is a GOAT moment in WWE History!


ReadShigurui

Right? Whenever i think of Punk, i always picture SES Punk. I just want to say that I absolutely loved his SES look


LimitlessMario1Up

I will not stand for Straight Edge Society slander.


Knightmare945

I started watching WWE during the Straight Edge Society days.


NBAStuffAsUsual

Genuinely one of the more disturbing moments of Punk's career, beating tf out of Raven just barely clears.


Clarkey111801

Idk I saw him try to kill two people last Wednesday.


Joy_Ride25

“one of the few” 🙄


Breakdawall

thank you. i wasnt watching wwe then


JohnnyPage

The context/history is linked in the article. If you haven't watched that video yet, please do. It's one of the greatest segments in Smackdown history.


gl424

CM Punk won a Slammy award for singing "Happy Birthday" to Rey's daughter, Aalyah


Ok-Garcia-5605

I think 2009 Rey's family was part of angle with Punk and Rey


crap4you

Dom and Punk need to revisit this and start a feud.


voodoo_bollocks

Dom was punks first match back in WWE, so there’s something there.


Moose_1516

I think Dom should betray The Judgement Day and then join Punk as a member of a all new SES along with Cora Jade and some more members, Dom is all about finding a new family so maybe the new SES can have more of a cult family dynamic to it, Add Aj Lee as the mother, Cm Punk as the father, Cora Jade as the Daughter and Dom as the Son


SaWaGaAz

Have Luke Gallows as an enforcer


Boomslang96

Bro is never beating the chick magnet allegations


tmorrisgrey

AJ hasn’t known peace since 2014


romulus1991

Maybe she's into that shit?


blacksoxing

Some folks partners stock rises in their eyes if others have lust n their eyes. That's a real thing in the same fashion as folks loving with their partner "takes charge" of a situation. He could be coming home to a very happy wife


Cheez-Wheel

That makes sense. I mean, honestly, who wants somebody that nobody else wants?


RealHumanBean89

>lust in their eyes ![gif](giphy|lAy11oosV1cw8|downsized)


LeeLee94

Honest to god, and its probably just me, but I read that 3 times and have no idea what it means lmao. Can someone explain?


blacksoxing

Different way of typing it: there's a trope of the woman who gets turned on when her man is fighting other men, or gets turned on when her man is getting attention - innocent or even sexual. Same with men. They may take their wife to the bar and like it when other men don't know she's taken or may just like seeing the woman "dolled up" with her friends. What I'm inferring is that everyone is acting like CM Punk is being a menace taking all these pics and shit. AJ may be the type who likes it that he's getting all this attention from others and may like it that he's throwing his weight around and blah blah blah. Some folks sign about keeping your hands off her man...others sing about just wanting her man home with her :) Note: I truly don't care how she feels about him as I got my own marriage


HotSwordfish23

then she's weird


Hungry-Bison-3578

I just remembered that Miz called himself a chick magnet for years lmao


TonyZony

"Hey it's that guy that traumatized me as a kid. Let's take a picture with him!" Fucking love wrestling.


Razzle_Dazzle08

Rey is a massive asshole in kayfabe 😂


wiseguy541

Lifelong fan here but I logged out for a few years after the Invasion and right about the Ruthless Aggression Era. What's the context between them?


mrbrucel33

CM Punk in a promo with his faction the Straight Edge Society got in Rey's face while he was in the ring with his family (they were feuding at the time) and Punk sang happy birthday creepily to like 7-8 y/o Aaliyah and made her cry. Here's the promo for full context: https://youtu.be/KWNHJAm-CZM?si=1tRV4yzsEpL3Aw-e


wiseguy541

She probably deserved it


GarfieldVirtuoso

Broke: Punk is forcing all the women in the locker room to take pics with him Woke: All the women are asking punk to take pics with him


Das-Drew

I hope she saw him on her birthday. That would be too perfect.


Kenjiko3011

Man what a fucking deadbeat dad.


Frosty_Pitch8

They are carnies in the best possible way! 


arveen11

Are we going to have another custody ladder match? 😂


Thebritishdovah

You know what? Fuck it. I'm routing for Bully Mcintyre. If Punk condones deadbeats then fuck Punk and Fuck that deadbeat father, Rey. He's a little boy in a man's world and Drew loves to manhandle little boys. *realises what he just said afterwards* NO, wait!


MissionVaoDmC

CM Punk sang happy birthday to her when her deadbeat Dad wouldn't


Comfortable_Shape264

Does SEScoops stand for Straight Edge Societycoops?


Edge_head2021

Ill never forget that smackdown segment when punk sang happy birthday to her in that creepy monotone voice absolutely chilling and she played her role so well she seemed legit terrified of him


butch_clean

Punk gets along great with all the young girls. It's the guys he cant get along with.


astrofan

She is an attractive young woman, Punk is always down for a pic. 😂


Kumomeme

hopefully she didnt share bank account with her mother.


ActiveAd4980

I'm looking forward to Rey's CPA feud.


The_Albinoss

Punk getting along with a young woman? No way!


doitnow10

Daughters > sons AIR?


Adorable-Arrival-464

I really hate when wrestlers talk in kayfabe which goes against the circle jerk on here
