WWE is getting a bit of bad press while in South Africa this week. There's a story in the media about a South African teenager being paralyzed after bullies at school used a Tombstone Piledriver on him. Police are investigating.[/quote]

This is what happens when u make a fighting show PG & let kids watch them....
No this is what happens when parents don't do their job & teach the kids. It's easy to blame other for your own shortcomings. My kid punched someone, let's blame video games,TV,Wrestling or wtf ever. Just don't blame me, i'm only the parent.....

Honestly this is ridiculous. Why on earth are WWE being investigated? Blame the fucking parents and investigated them. Jezz, make WWE the scapegoat.

This is totally the WWE's fault. They should have taken better precautions.

They should make sure that their performers get extensive training. They should also ensure that moves like the piledriver are only performed on occassion, and only by the safest hands on the roster, preferably a decades-old veteran.

They should have some kind of health care programme in place just in case a head or neck injury occurs. Anyone who suffers from poor neck/head health should be taken out of active competition until they recover, or permanently (if it is needed).

They should also ensure that all of their content comes with a warning, discouraging people from performing any of the said moves. Get some of their more popular and influential guys to host these disclaimers. And if they can find someone, how about a fan favourite who is from Africa, maybe Kofi Kingston, to host some of these safety warnings.

Wait a minute.... the WWE does do this! What more can they do?
