By now everybody’s seen the video from last night’s Academy Awards of Will Smith slapping Chris Rock across the face after Chris made a joke about Will’s wife Jada’s hair loss.
The reactions from around the internet have been mixed, with some people defending Will for standing up from his wife and others calling for him to face assault charges. (As of right now, Chris has apparently decided not to press charges, according to the LAPD).
But Wheeler Walker Jr. had a different reaction: He’s inviting Will Smith to the CMA Awards next.
In a video posted to his social media, Ol’ Wheeler throws out the idea to include Will in next year’s awards – and have every presenter make a joke about Smith’s wife.
“Here’s my take: Next year, the Country Music Awards, we invite Will Smith. Every joke on the stage is about his wife. That way everybody in Nashville gets their fucking face slapped.
Let’s do it. Let’s slap all them motherfuckers’ faces.
Will Smith, come on to Nashville. Lot of fucking faces to slap.”

Now Wheeler didn’t name any names, but he did recently get kicked out of the Country Music Hall of Fame for protesting Florida Georgia Line’s new exhibit…
