True... but Britney Spears body guard gets exposure every time her pic is taken in public too. It doesn't mean he's going to benefit in any way from it, he just happens to be there.

People said the same thing about Otunga bringing in a new audience because his wife was Jennfier Hudson. That has yet to happen and this is going to be no different.

I don't think Jersey Shore fans that aren't already wrestling fans are suddenly going to start tuning in and watching Morrison just because they were on the same team.

In my humble opinion, the only person that is going to benefit from Snooki's appearance is Snooki. Wrestling, particularly women's wrestling, wasn't furthered in any way by that match.

Except thats not the point at all, it's to expose wrestlers to people who don't watch wrestling, not for people to suddenly decide to start watching. WWE wants a mainstream audience to recognise it's talent because it makes them relevant and in turn gets them better sponsorship. Pushing Morrison as world champion isn't going to do anything to get him recognised by non-fans, while stuff like tagging with Snooki is a STEP towards getting exposure.

I'm not saying John Morrison is suddenly an international sensation, but more people know about his existance now than they did before this match.

Honestly have never seen an article where anyone has drawn attention to Britney Spears' bodyguard and the security company he work for.

This.


As for Britney Spears' bodyguard? Hey who's to say it doesn't help him being photographed next to her. Does it help his exposure at being a star? No, he's not an entertainer. Being a star isn't his profession. Duh! But in his field, i.e. being a bodyguard, being able to say "hey, I was Britney Spears' bodyguard....see!?" would likely help him get hired as a bodyguard for other celebrities because Britney Spears is kind of a big deal, gets around a lot, has a large number of screaming fans, etc. So having experience as her bodyguard shows that he knows his shit. So....um, yes, the bodyguard in question does in fact benefit from being photographed with Britney Spears in regards to helping him in his specific profession. K, bye.
