I wonder when they actually start announcing where Edge is from, if it will be Toronto, or Tampa now....BTW, has Test, Christians and Trish's hometown changed yet?

Or maybe it is leading to another "Team Canada" angle.

I guess if you are Canadian, it means you are evil.
I guess the WWE is trying to kill off their most loyal market outside NYC |

Last night they said Rob Conway was from Quebec City, Quebec. I don't know if they said that was where he's from before or if it's part of his character (Can't be French so he becomes French-Canadian....?) But they were always hyping him up to be a US citizen who was a french sympathizer.
BTW, the crowd was chanting "USA" again last night durring the match between Rob Conway and Chris Benoit. (confusing?). I'm just going to assume that it's a taunt against La Resistance to irritate them, rather than a cheer for the face they are booked with, because this has happened a couple times before now too. |

They're all changing there hometowns because Jericho & Benoit don't live in Canada anymore. The WWE superstars are announced from where ever they want to be announced from. Ric Flair about twenty years ago decided that he wanted to be announced as from Greensborough North Carolina, yet he's from Minnesota. I'm guessing the fact that Jericho lives in New York now has gotten him some loyalty for his new hometown. If they announced "Born in Atlanta, Georgia, Chris Benoit!" then I think it'd be stupid, but saying that he's from Georgia is correct because he lives there.

Also, As far as Conway being announced from Quebec, He's not consider french, since he was a French Sympother (Whatever the Hell that is) I guess if he is that, Quebec would be the next best place to announce him from, besides French, or Mustardville |
