Yeah, but people in general love scapegoats. This is just the IWC/Smark scapegoat. There's always something, and while the toning down of wrestling started years before her senate ambitions, mobs rarely stop to let facts get in the way of their mobbing.

*cue Noid bitching that I'm pretending I'm not part of the IWC, though I'm not claiming that at all*

WWE made collective decision to try to get back the advertisers that they had lost because of the ParentsTV Coucil's smear campaign that they ran during the attitude era.

It has seemed to have worked because they got Mattel to do their toy line, and 7-11 is selling WWE cups again which they did last year also. I don't think WWE had cups like that in 7-11 stores since the WCW Invasion in 2001.

They also again got their old friends Slim Jims to advertise their diarrhea inducing meat sticks again.

WWE PG is about WWE business not about Linda's possible Senate seat. Hell I bet the WWE didn't give Linda much of a chance of winning at first.

There one reason and one reason only why Linda was steering clear about her involvement in WWE: her opponents were claiming that WWE was helping her campaign illegally by pulling YouTube videos with controversial angles involving her.

Yeah, it couldn't have had anything with wrestler that were employed with WWE ending up dead at a young age. (See Pillman, Brian; Hart, Owen; Guerrero, Eddie; Shall Not be Named, He Who)

Or anything to do with wrestlers who used to be employed with WWE dying shortly after their tenure with WWE. (See... fuck it, that list is too fucking long)

Or their joke of a Wellness policy that will stop a match for blood (a serious incident to be sure) but NOT for REAL injuries (see Orton, Randy; see DiBiase, Ted; fuck it, this list is too fucking long too).

Isn't he going to get sued for using WWE footage? Also could be held for slander as this implies JR is a Republican.

They can likely argue fair use or parody for that one.

You know, Schiff isn't much better than McMahon...

"Democrat National Convention?"

We don't call it the "Republic National Convention," so he can go fuck himself.

And one of the "Democrats" she gave money to was Joe Lieberman, so he doesn't really count.

From PWInsider:

The following was posted on Kurt Angle's Twitter account.

To all connecticut residents, as u know linda mcmahon is running for office. I worked with linda on many projects in wwe. Linda was a professional that got things done. I worked with her on "smackdown ur vote" among many other projects. She is smart, bright and a true leader. I am now in tna and it doesn't benefit me to talk about linda or what a great woman she is. I saw with my own eyes. She's honest, sincere and always looked out for what was best to her employees. Linda was the positiveness in wwe. She has the qualities that I would want in a politician. She listens to you, and always does the right thing. If I were living in connecticut, I would vote for her with pride and an eagerness to get the economy, real estate and health reform back on track. Remember, I'm in tna and I don't plan on leaving but I want what is best for this country, and linda mcmahon has that "IT" factor you rarely see in today's leaders. Good luck linda. GOD bless, kurt angle 1996 olympic gold medalist and proud AMERICAN
