Opinion: JBL Needs to Be Let Go From WWE

By now all of us are familiar with JBL and the fallout from Mauro Ranallo’s absence in WWE. Time after time, year after year, information comes out that JBL has bullied people and this time, in the age of twitter, he can’t seem to escape his sins. I think JBL is good at the character he plays on tv. I usually don’t like his commentary that much but JBL/Graves could be good if JBL didn’t go on his weird rants (I still cringe at the thought of JBL screaming “Maggle” on RAW).

I would be fine with WWE firing him because of all this. I think a nice plus is that he definitely is a relic of the past and not the future. People will always play pranks – but JBL seems like he always went past a ‘prank’ from reading all the stuff he’s done/said to people. I can’t imagine the current crop of locker room leaders having much interest in “sociopathic torture”, doesn’t really seem like something AJ Styles, KO, Samoa Joe, Balor, Nakamura, Reigns, Rollins, Brock Lesnar, The Miz, Kofi Kingston, etc. would spend much time on. I think they are more likely to play video games than “bully” to be honest.

Orton defecating in a former diva’s suitcase is probably the last thing someone from the Orton/Jericho/Cena generation did that would really be “too far” that we’ve heard about, and that was over a decade ago. What do you think? Should JBL be let go from WWE? Comment below!
