Pro Wrestling Palskis


Aug 5, 2021

Today the Palskis are looking at the job of the heel in modern pro wrestling, and whether the actions or words of a heel wrestler should be judged differently than the actions or words of other villainous characters in fiction. Is there a line that heels shouldn't cross? Are all heel wrestler character types judged equally? Does a "realistic" heel get less slack from our society than an over-the-top cartoonish one? Bigotry, sexism, personal attacks of loved ones, references to reality, offensive or revolting acts... murder?! What exactly is the job of the heel?

News of the week includes Bray Wyatt, Ric Flair, AEW Rampage, how rising cases of COVID-19 may effect Summer Slam, and of course the reaction to Max Caster's latest rap.
