As far as the actual topic goes. I guess it's cos Scott Hall can't do an Irish accent.

Yes, the WWE likes to play off of stupid racial steriotypes and blind patriotism.

Has always been that way.

We get our PPV's at 1:00am because they're shown live. If they where to be broadcast at a more respectable time live, in th UK, they'd have to be held during the day in the States, which isn't prime time viewing for their main market. Its not them not giving a shit, its just how it is.

IMO, I prefer having the PPV's live at 1:00am, means they can't be spoiled.

It just seems like Vince McMahon will stereotype workers of every country apart from Ireland and Amercia, make fun of blacks and other ethnic groups, and women.

Since when did that matter? I mean seriously, how many times was the European Title actually defended in Europe? How often does the WORLD heavyweight champion defend the title in other parts of the world?

It's WWE-Logic. Don't try to understand it. Just smile and nod.

Well I seem to remember it being defended in Scotland, England, Germany Finland, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Australia and Canada amongst other places since the brand split. Where is Smackdown taped next week? Oh yeah, Iraq.

The European title was made especially for Davey Boy Smith. Once he left, everything went tits up. Title is dead now anyway so move on.

Well, it is a very American notion to call your own trophy the "world X."

Just look at the World Series. Oh yeah. You see a lot of Baseball teams from Japan, the UK, and China winning that. US and a couple Canadian teams.
