-- Former WWE star Damian Demento is planning on taking legal action against World Wrestling Entertainment. The company poked fun at his former character in the latest edition of WWE Magazine which has greatly upset him. He feels that WWE shouldn't be able to humiliate and embarrass him as he's several years removed from the wrestling business and is now a civilian. He says it's causing stress to him, his family and friends. He posted a video on YouTube regarding the situation:
He wrote: "Once again the WWE humiliates me in their upcoming 2008 October magazine issue. I'm 16 years removed from working with them and still they post my picture in the gimmick I made and continue to insult me. I'm not sitting back any longer, so I'm taking legal action against the WWE, WWE Magazine, and Vince McMahon. No joke this time."
Apparently THIS was the final straw:

Damien Demento
Curtain-jerkers come in all forms, but none more insane than Damien Demento. Although he was in the main event during the first Raw telecast, Demento is probably best remembered for dressing like an extra from The Flinstones.
To me, it doesn't sound like they DID attack him personally, but I don't know anything about this guy, who he is, why does he think his gimmick IS him in real life, why this should even be considered a valid suit....or why I should care that this guy exists!
