He also had a wound in his leg that would never heal and was in intense pain often which can explain his temper

If you are knocked out and you are unconscious more than a few minutes you pretty much have some kind of brain damage

I think this theory makes a lot of sense. He wasn't exactly a great person before this but he seems more erratic afterwards. Plus the constant pain.

Yeah Brain damage is incredibly serious and can alter people a lot but it’s not the entire reason he viewed women as disposable

Question, did the man that nearly brained him in the first jousting accident get in trouble or was it just accepted as a risk of jousting?

This might explain why he entered York via Walmgate Bar instead of Micklegate - the height of impoliteness and scorn from a monarch!

It’s important to note, not long after he had Anne executed, it’s really important to note he suddenly went bent over backwards with Anne to TREASON

Probably just amplified the worst parts especially violent tendencies if he's in alot of pain with headache plus the brain damage

I mean also he was the king which meant he had neat unlimited power and zero accountability which would explain a lot of it imo

I recall from that show, The Tudors, that he also injured his leg jousting and is in intolerable pain for the rest of his life. Probably not entirely accurate, since it was a spicy historical drama...
