No, you think it's a fetish and it isn't. You're reading way too much into what is a long established pro wrestling angle. Hair matches have been around for decades and you're the first to ever think it's a fetish. So it is within our rights to say that you're out to lunch. It's OK not to like it but that's not what you said.

Bra & Panty matches that have aging announcers yelling "PUPPIES!!!"... that's a fetish. Hair Vs. Hair matches is simply an angle to either a) humilate a heel and give him/her their comeuppance or b) create sympathy for a babyface as they get a push. Not a fetish.

I'd hardly say wanting to see attractive women in little clothing is a fetish, but yeah, I agree with your point  |

If I were into hair shearing enough to know about its doubtless glorious and deeply moving history then pretty obviously we wouldn't have this disagreement. If you were into great women's wrestling the way many on this forum are you would probably would know about AJW and its history that involved hair vs hair matches. Whether you personally enjoy the matches or not is irrelevant. I was just pointing out that your accusations betrayed your ignorance of the greatest westling fed ever (women's or otherwise). You can keep making those comments if you want, but most people here will write you off as completely uninformed. |

Why the thought of Nikki tripping over bad booking come to mind?

What we're all losing sight of is, this wasn't a hair vs hair match. This was a convoluted gimmick match where Gail Kim had nothing to lose since she had immunity form having her head shaved. She was never at any danger.

With the convoluted nature of the gimmick, though, Angelina Love was at risk of losing her hair. It was a standard babyface/heel set-up viewed through the usual TNA kaleidoscope.
Besides, no-one at the tapings seemed turned on by what was happening. The main reaction was one of sympathy for Roxxi and fury for Russo. Admittedly, the second half isn't what they wanted, but the first half was.

Even TNA's Announcer didn't know what was going on. That should tell you something.

You know what you do with t-n-a? you !@#* it!
With or without hair,nikki still ROXXS.
Even sextherapists will explain why fetishes have their place too.

This week's edition of the Figure Four Weekly newsletter at www.f4wonline.com confirmed what a few people in this thread had suspected from the beginning, i.e. that the head shaving was Nikki's idea. |

I already knew she okay'd it doesn't make me feel any better about it. Considering it's a long term effect in a very forgettable match. Stuff like that should be remembered for years. I can bet several months from now if I decide to turn TNA back on I'll most likely have to do research to remember how it happen.
