Who is mad? Why am I not surprised that someone would not understand what I am saying on the WFigs forum? Why am I *especially* not surprised that it's you? Hoping for him to be alive given the circumstances is unrealistic. Period. You want to give well wishes? Give it to the family whom is mourning the loss of a husband, a son, a father. Give well wishes to his son, who has to go on living with the fact that his father made sure that HE was safe, sacrificing his own life for his. That young man will need a lifetime of counseling. Give your respects to the departed. As I said-- since you clearly glossed over my post so you can virtue signal and be the first to white knight this thing-- he was by all accounts a wonderful human being. He deserves proper dedications. But to possibly give false hopes to people is unhealthy and unrealistic. You have a problem with that? My DMs are open. It's a crappy situation, and it's only compounded by people like you who live in fantasy land. So if someone finds out they have a terminal illness and they will only live a couple days/ weeks/ months, are people not allowed to hope and wish that they will make it through because it is unrealistic? Dude you obviously have some problems beyond what is going on here. I am sorry if something bad happened in your life that does not allow you to just say the phrase "I hope he is ok." I doubt any of us saying that are sitting here thinking his chances are good. I am saying I hope he makes it because I sincerely WISH that for the guy, but I know that he probably and unfortunately didn't make it. But there is still NOTHING wrong with saying that I wish or hope that he did make it. Also, who am I giving false hope to? I am not talking to his family. And if his family is actually reading this, then I am sorry that they had to come across your insincere comment at a time like this. ...an illness can be misdiagnosed, therefore, is not the same as being swept out to sea and missing for two days... False equivalence. Do you know what that means? Of course you don't. What part of your thick, useless brain is not getting this? There is no hoping he is okay after two days. There was no hoping he was okay after a day. An hour after? Maybe. But at the point the news reached us, it was no longer a rescue mission, but a recovery search. Those are facts based on statistical data, you child. And statistical data doesn't care about your feelings. Also, my comments are anything but insincere. They're certainly more sincere than any of the empty platitudes you all have spouted off here to a man you haven't thought of since the moment he left your WWE screen. You just can't fathom that someone doesn't join in on your empty, meaningless dedications, and kowtow to your line of "thinking". Also, since you're not talking to his family, what are you doing? Trying to score brownie points? Make yourself look good? Please. And my life is great, so again, as stated, spare me your judgment. You know jack about me. You have a problem with what I said? Fine. That's the extent of it.

You seriously have no idea what it is like to just be a good person. I can wish someone well and not be looking for "brownie points." I don't care if anyone reads my posts or not. I want him to be well. End of story. I don't need my peers or his family around to say that. Let's just leave it at that. I really don't need to have an argument on a thread about a guy's horrible situation. That is the focus. Not you.

Only here can a horrible situation turn into a prick waving contest. Stay classy.

I really don't need to have an argument on a thread about a guy's horrible situation. That is the focus. Not you. Again--reading comprehension is beyond you. Not what I said. Remotely. And again, you have no idea who I am outside of here. I'm not making myself the focus here. You are. Because you don't like what I said. I stayed on topic. You chose to try to insult me. You tried to denigrate who I am as a human being. Because you don't like what I said. I didn't start an argument. You did. Because you didn't like what I said. You think you're making yourself look good here. You're virtue signaling and it's transparent.

I did not lock this. And I'm not sure who did.
But I do want to say something... It's a goddamn shame we can't ever have a mature conversation around here. We can't even pay respects to a wrestler on a wrestling website. A mean, a man is missing, presumed dead, and yet someone on Wfigs has to make it about themselves. It's not edgy or cool, it's sad and pathetic.
