Last week, the NWA-TNA website reported that WWE had signed Zachary Gowen, better known as Tenacious Z. Many WWE wrestlers were said to be less then happy about WWE's decision on hiring the one-legged new comer. Sources close to situation say that the wrestlers may object if asked to put a one-legged wrestler over.

i am discusted at such a thought, he should be treated like any other wrestler, weather a guy or girl has one leg, one arm or two freakin heads, they should be treated as an equal

They need to stop thinking about themselves and think about others. If he's good and they want to put him over, then do so, don't cry about it. Damn. Z has feelings too.

I have to agree with the wrestlers. I'm not trying be a jerk but they have a point. It's one thing if he has a lot of talent and he can make it look believable that he can beat people. But putting over a wrestler just because he has one leg doesn't seem right. You guys are right, he should be treated as an equal but he won't be. He'll be getting special treatment because the WWE will put him over just because he one leg.

his gimmick is that he has one leg, so! pretty soon batista and orton will have to put over golddust with his mental thing. its just the same, im such their are plenty of guys with one leg that could kick my ass, just cause he has one doesn't mean he has to be held back
the stars are just worried it'll make them look bad, it won't in the context that things are used. they are just looking after themselves

Goldust will be acting like he has the mental problem. This guy won't be acting like he has one leg. It's not just a gimmick. He'll be getting special treatment for his disability. the wrestlers have a right to be worried it'll make them look bad because it will.

I have to agree with Bruce on this one. I'm not trying to be a jerk either. Do you really honestly see RVD agreeing to lose to a guy with one leg? I don't think so. In my opinion if this guy ends up making it to the main roster it will be short term thing. They will hype up a 1 legged wrestler and the buzz will be going around for a while but will fizz out. How many people in the back are going to want to job to a 1 leeged man? Heck, Stone Cold won't even job to Brock Lesnar!
