Breaking News: Britney Spears Hired by WWE!!!
Okay, just kidding, but I wanted to point out this quip by Bill Simmons in his latest Mailbag article over on ESPN.com's Page 2:
Quote:
Q: After watching the train wreck of a performance from K-Fed at the Teen Choice Awards, I started to think ... is Britney Spears the Mike Tyson of the pop world? Think about it, she got on top of her game at a really young age, blew by the competition and seemed to have peaked at around 21. Then, she breaks up with Timberlake (which could be Cus D'Amato dying). Then finds K-Fed (who is a mix of Don King, the rape charge, and Buster Douglas all in one). So what's next for my former dream girl?
--Dan Soder, Tucson, Ariz.
SG: I just enjoyed that you described K-Fed as "a mix of Don King, the rape charge, and Buster Douglas all in one." Sums him up perfectly. But in the spirit of your analogy, I think WrestleMania is next for her. It's the logical next step. After she pumps out the next kid, K-Fed leaves her for her sister, her next album bombs and she files for bankruptcy for the first time, I could totally see her becoming Triple H's manager for a few weeks and hitting John Cena over the head with her purse at WrestleMania XXVI. Just feels right.

Anyway, would you mark out if that happened? Given the absurdity of it?
Perhaps more relevant, here's a game: pick a washed up former star to appear on WWE program in an angle that is actually planned and booked for a significant period of time (*cough* David Arquette *cough*).
Now book the worst and most ridiculous angle that might realistically be done in the WWE.
You know, like having Tom Green wrestle Foley in a hardcore beastiality match or something.
