Wrestling has long done things in poor taste,
IN FLORIDA Buddy Roberts calling Mike Graham a loser just like his dad right after the elder's death was not in good taste AT ALL.
As far as World class, Fritz and company did present Chris Adams "kayfabe" blindness on the same level of the true life death of Gino Hernandez in the SAME SEGMENT with no pause.
I also seem to remember a promo Harley Race cut on King Parsons that was in poor taste
The Fritz angle was in bad taste, the fans had been through tremendous tragedy and to pretend Fritz had a heart attack was in poor taste. Just because he did not die, does not make it okay.

Moody's family gave blessings to this angle. I fail to see how fans can see it is in real poor taste. His son even said that Bill Moody would have enjoyed it. Now, the WWE had just did this without any contact with his family I'd think it was in poor taste.

I was aware that his family signed-off on this, but that has no affect on how I view the matter. I believe that all parties involved were a bit to involved with the wrestling business, and that clouded their judgment. A man covering himself with the supposed ashes of another will always be in poor taste, regardless of who gives it the green light. If anything, it makes me wonder about what kind of people the Moodys are.

I don't know. Maybe I just separate William Moody from Paul Bearer. I only saw like one week of the angle because I'm not a weekly watcher. And kinda respect William Moody's family's judgment on how this was handled. Don't get me wrong, I think the WWE has a track record of over the top tastelessness tho.

It may have been in poor taste, but I got a laugh out of the segment where Paul Heyman was dressed as Paul Bearer.

Quoted from: Jason Hart, April 05th, 2013 06:57 GMT I have seen whats been going on,i think it is in very very bad taste.i think that c.m. punk is weak at best,and cheap heat is the only kind he can get..
Doubt the angle was Punk's idea. I disagree about Punk only being able to get cheap heat, though I do agree this particular angle was cheap heat.
