If this was about making his wrestling company look good this plea would have come out when Eddie Guerrero died or when Chris Benoit died when professional wrestling was getting horrifically slandered. Instead it comes up when to help him politically, which is bullshit. He's trying to use the fervor of wrestling fans for something that by and large they don't care about.
I hate when people in here making statements lime "90% on this thread are idiots" because you disagree with an opinion. Try to have a conversation. Try to make points. Don't jump to the easy dismissivness of claiming people of diffrent opinions are idiots. It not only hurts your chances of making people that disagree with you point see the validity of it, but it also hurts your own chances of seeing the validity of other peoples points.
I know this is a message board and trading barbs is part of the deal, but don't lump yourself in with the idiots by dismissing others and calling them idiots. You're not and idiot, but neither are those that disagree with you. At least not on this point.

Sorry. My idiots commented isn't so much directed at the people who don't like this as it is the people who call it "embarrassing". I mean, come on.
I think that what they are doing makes sense. As a CT resident, I know first hand that pretty much every commercial break I will see at least one Blumenthal ad that focuses on attacking WWE. Here in CT (where WWE headquarters is, mind you) they are getting slandered even more than they did during the more controversial incidents.
It makes sense for them to try and silence the critics at this point. I'm not saying Linda's campaign has nothing to do with it, because I'm sure it does...but to call it "embarassing" for a company to finally try and refute the negativity is ridiculous.
