WWF, Late 1990's
While today's WWE, with its ten billion generic, half naked women, may seem like a wild place, the late 90's WWF makes it look tepid by comparison. There was a great deal more focus on sex than at any other time in wrestling history. And no other angle demonstrates this better than the Val Venis castration angle.
Val was feuding with Kaeintai, who were managed by Wally Yamagauchi. Yamagauchi would often bring his "wife" with him to the ring, a young oriental girl who looked to be about 15 years old.

So what's a former porn star to do? Why bag the enemy's wife, of course! Venis debuted his "latest movie", entitled "Land of the Rising Venis". It should be noted that the wife was also the sister of Taka Michonoku, Val's tag team partner at the time. Yep. |
| Yamagauchi was infuriated, of couse. So he planned the ultimate revenge: screw the psychological warfare - he would slice Val's weiner off. |

Just
in case Val didn't quite catch on, the Kaeintai
members brought out big sausages. You know,
like Val's unit. Yamagauchi-san pulled out
a big samurai sword and issued his
now infamous battle cry! |
| Venis teamed up with Taka to take on Yamaguchi's evil henchmen. Taka, though, was Japanese (and therefore also stereotypically evil), and turned on him. Taka and the rest of the dirty goldfish tenders took Val to the back and stripped him naked. Val's hands were tied to the roof, and Yamagauchi raised his sword high and then.... the WWF faded to black. (Is it just me, or is that one guy to the right looking right up Val's poop chute? Creepy!) |

So how did the WWF explain what happened? Well, Val did an interview with fellow "Pee Pee Choppy" victim John Wayne Bobbit.
You
know, I've never understood this photo. Why would
anyone want to be like Val, who presumably just had
his weiner chopped off?
Val claimed that, due to the fear of it all, he suffered shrinkage, and the sword missed.
Kinda like the whole angle.

pee!"
