One of the most egregious lapses in judgment I've seen in pro wrestling came on tonight's show.

For the parents of those two little girls to script and sanction them to be sitting four feet away from their father getting hit with a chair in the skull and bleeding was inexcusable.

For Dixie Carter to allow that, and be part of it by sitting next to them so she could be the one to order security to take them away, was inexcusable.

Those girls are not old enough to fully grasp real and fake, especially because the blood is real and the chairshot to their father's skull wasn't fake.

Mick Foley regrets having his young kids present for the 18 chairshots he took from The Rock.

Someone at that show privy to the plans should have spoken up. It's not just that the girls might be traumatized by it...

KELLER BIO: PWTorch editor Wade Keller has been a leading wrestling reporter and analyst since launching the Pro Wrestling Torch Newsletter in 1987. He has covered pro wrestling full time via the newsletter, a pro wrestling radio show on KFAN in the 1990s, a successful 900 wrestling news hotline in the 1990s, the PWTorch.com website, and the PWTorch iPhone App in the 2000s.

He has interviewed dozens of pro wrestling's biggest names in their longest insider interviews, most often ranging from 2 to 7 hours in length. He has interviewed for the Pro Wrestling Torch Newsletter top wrestlers ("Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Hulk Hogan, The Rock, Bill Goldberg, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, among many others), top promoters and executives (Vince McMahon, Jim Ross, Eric Bischoff, Jerry Jarrett, Jim Cornette, Paul Heyman, Bill Watts, Jerry Lawler, several WCW vice presidents, and others), legends (Lou Thesz, Roy Shires, Nick Bockwinkel, Verne Gagne, and others), and dozens of other wrestlers in long-form historical interviews.

He hosted the "Ultimate Insiders DVD" series in the mid-2000s which was nationally distributed at major chain stores including expansive interviews with Matt & Jeff Hardy and Vince Russo & Ed Ferrara.

He has been quoted as an expert wrestling analyst by dozens of major newspapers, national cable channels, radio stations, and magazines over the last 23 years including MPR, Fox News, the Washington Post, ESPN Magazine, and many others.

PWTorch VIP members currently hear his analysis on a daily basis with the daily Wade Keller Hotline, featuring a 10-20 minute overview of the news, breaking news, and analysis of TV shows (and more-than-occasional rants).
