Senility was creeping in or sanity was creeping out This is the same McMahon that figured he could drop an un-scripted racial slur in a promo that involved a black wrestler because he heard it in a bunch of rap songs earlier. It's now considered one of the most infamous moments in wrestling.

Sunday: AEW wrestler Wardlow wins the promotion's mens' TV title in a pay-per-view match.
Last night: Someone breaks into Wardlow's rental vehicle, stealing the title as well as all of his wrestling gear and several personal effects.
He was supposed to be defending the title tonight, and so no word yet on how the theft of the belt will affect everything.

Keep an eye on the world of professional wrestling.
AEW: a title just changed hands last night because the wrestler with the title suffered a concussion during the match and a new ending had to be improvised on the spot. It's not the first time a new ending has had to be improvised because of an in-ring injury, but the way the referee acted it was as if there was no policy in place for how to govern things.
WWE: several wrestlers are now being released as I type this, on top of large numbers of behind-the-scenes people who were released due to the merger with MMA company Endeavor. Apparently there is going to be some change as to which channel hosts which shows (I still need to look that up), and there are also renewed legal questions regarding Vince McMahon.

For those who haven't heard, Sports Illustrated fired virtually their entire staff last weekend.

So.
CM Punk.
The same CM Punk who was fired from AEW for brawling with his fellow wrestlers, and who was then snatched up by the WWE despite the protests of much of their cast and crew.
He just blew his tricep at this past weekend's pay-per-view event.
WWE wrestler Drew McIntyre is now mocking him on Twitter.
I'd say that his career is just about done at this point.
