Linda McMahon White House Vetting
 
Linda's vetting summary from when she was background checked for a role in Trump's cabinet leaked.

It is 21 pages of pretty much everything bad WWE have ever done.

Genuinely curious about what stuff got redacted.

In 2004 a wrestler dressed in dragged was severly beaten while the attacker yelled "He's a faggot!".

Scott Steiner was in the company at this time correct?

A Wrestler Savagely Beat Another Wrestler Who Was Dressed In Drag In 2004; Shouting “He’s A Faggot” Then there was Tyson Tomko’s match against Steven Richards at Unforgiven 2004. Richards, dressed in drag, was savagely beaten on pay-per-view while Tomko screamed out ‘He’s a faggot’ as loud as can be. Tyson wanted to make that point clear just in case anyone doubted that they were actually witnessing a hate crime.”

Cool read.

Austin saying "I see Sand People" to Hassan and Daivari. Fucking hell I forgot all about that.

Destor 06-24-2019 01:14 PM

stil not over the missed opportunity that was Hassan

Gerard 06-24-2019 01:25 PM

I doubt the Hassan gimmick would have lasted much longer anyway considering how he was being treated backstage.

Hassan cutting a promo calling out USA Today for being racist after the Taker angle was the stuff of legends.

#1-norm-fan 06-24-2019 01:31 PM

Also, I love how Linda calling some of Trump’s comments about women deplorable and objectionable is a red flag. Lol

I still remember that one.

The guy was an on-screen character for only 8 months yet he's still talked about a decade and a half later. Talk about making the most of your screen time.

Destor 06-24-2019 01:41 PM

He would have been THE heel of the decade

Big Vic 06-24-2019 01:43 PM

Yeah he was great.

Carlito had a several year run, few titles, and gets mentioned less.

Destor 06-24-2019 01:46 PM

No one has gotten heat since

Well, if they would've edited out his stuff with 'Taker from the SmackDown! episode which aired 7/7/2005 there was tons of potential for him. #AnotherEmbarrassingVinceMcMahonMoment

Thankfully, Jinder came along.

Destor 06-24-2019 02:40 PM

Are you saying theyre same because theyre both brown?

Bad News Gertner 06-24-2019 03:17 PM

Lol @ them bringing up Murray Hodgson who was exposed in court during his trial against the WWF to have blackmailed closeted married gay men to their families and was so shook during the revelation that he kept trying to drink out of an empty glass.

xrodmuc316 06-24-2019 06:27 PM

I still love how worked up the media got over this wrestling muslim. Nobody ever brought up the fact the dude was Italian lol

Emperor Smeat 06-24-2019 08:21 PM

That was mainly because WWE had the brain dead decision to not edit out his martyring of Taker on the same week that the London terror attacks happened.

This was after UPN told them to cut the segment out because of the backlash it was going to cause and they still refused to do so. UPN had already been feeling uncomfortable with the darker tone of his gimmick and eventually got it canned due to WWE's stupidity.
