Shouts To ProWrestling.com
"JBL is one of the senior members of the WWE locker room and has a reputation for being somewhat of a bully. According to several sources, JBL picked out Joey Styles to be the target of his hazing during the Iraq tour. JBL was messing with Styles all week, including calling him condescending names in front of other WWE employees and spilling a drink on him intentionally.
After a few days of abuse, Joey Styles had enough abuse and confronted JBL, who had been drinking at the time. The altercation turned physical and Styles dropped JBL with a punch to the face. Several wrestlers had to step in and break it up."
Now Mind You JBL Is At Least 300lbs. Joey Styles, As Far As I Know Has Never Competed In The Ring In Any Way, Shape Or Form, Unless It Was Commentary Or ECW Related. And You Would Think That Even Though Dude Snuffed The "Wrestling God" That It Would Be Bad For Business And Somebody [Styles] Would Have Been Fired...
"At last night's RAW tapings, JBL was unusually quiet while Styles tried to play down the incident and did not want to talk about it. While some companies would fire an employee for an incident like this, there are actually some people within the company that feel Styles standing up for himself might actually score him some points with Vince McMahon."
So At The End Of The Day "David Snuffs Goliath, And Gets Away With It!!
