Titus O’Neil’s suspension has been blown way out of proportion by all involved. The reason it’s become such an issue is because of Titus O’Neil’s generous persona and the fact that WWE is making an example out of him because they want everyone to be “more professional”.

On paper, you don’t pull on your boss like Titus did, but WWE is an unorthodox workplace. The same rules that apply to corporate offices don’t necessarily apply to WWE, or they didn’t until this incident.

Regardless, everyone has been so focused on how unfair the suspension is, or how racist WWE is because they suspended an African American employee during Black History Month. Everyone has been so focused on those details that no one is asking why he did it in the first place?

According to ProWrestlinSheet.com, Titus O’Neil pulling back on Vince’s arm was said to be an act of courtesy towards Stephanie McMahon.

If you rewatch the video below, Stephanie was walking with Triple H, and Vince was in the front. Apparently, Titus pulled on Vince saying, “ladies first”.

As it turns out, chivalry is not dead. It just forces an image-conscious public company to suspend one of its most charitable and likable employees for trying to be a gentleman.
