I doubt it's a joke. Wrestlers court is real. Devine wrote about it: For those of you who don't know what it is, Wrestler Court is kind of a kangaroo court of your peers when you screw up. It is truly a lost treasure here in North America as it's not brought up near enough. But in England and Europe it's still holding strong. Basically an offender is brought up on charges, in this case missing a appointment and pissing everyone off. The ranking wrestler in the crew (most time in) sits as judge and the next two ranking crew act as prosecutor and public defender. Although the defender really has no desire to help the client. The judge then hears the case and decides on a sentence, the usual being running miles in under so many minutes, or cases of beer, but they can range to the obscure and embarrassing depending on the crime. I have seen naked karaoke and streaking as sentences. It really depends on the judge. I hope any companies or workers reading this remember it and start using it at their promotion as it's a great fun motivator but also a way to keep guys in check. As long as its all in "good fun" for the guys watching the sentence. slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/Devine/2007/11/29/4695384.html |

It was just done as a joke.. which is what Devine basically says. Which is what I said. |

When I was managing in the now dead MWA(Midwest Wrestling Alliance) I got a trip to the court for not announcing it was my 21st birthday the same night as one of our shows. Needless to say I lost and my sentencing was 21 chops from our stiffest vet and I had to buy the first round at the bar after the show. Damn I miss those days.

So he actually said the total Polar opposite of what you're saying. |

I wasn't aware that you needed tenure to rib Billy Gunn, considering all the crap he's voluntarily done to his own career.
