Since we live in a time where you can get cancelled for what you said in the past, how has Rock escaped unscathed?

The stuff he said and did in WWF back in the day would be a huge nope nowadays

Cause he was funny.
The “it’s just a joke” defense will always work if the joke’s actually funny.

Because he's not white.

I have this old WWF CD with the Rock and a pie on it, and in the song he disses Kevin Kelly, saying, "you big, fat, ugly hermaphrodite!"

Somewhat true. People tried to cancel Dave Chappelle for his tranny jokes but the amount of people who thinks its funny countered them.

This. There are jokes that attempt skid by by just trying to be edgy. They are actually unfunny and try to use edginess as a way to make up for lack of comedic talent. Then there is stuff that is considered edgy that's funny as hell like this pic.
But just saying "oh benoit killed his son with the crossface hahha" is dumb and unfunny even though the joke is about the exact same topic and subject matter. It's not that anyone is offended, it's that you need to learn to make better jokes lmao

It’s not a joke bro god king “5 star” himself said it…

Wrestling writer Dave Meltzer adds, “There was bruising consistent with the Crippler Crossface on one arm and Daniel’s face. There were no bruises on his neck.
