Alberto Del Rio is the nephew of Mil Mascaras. Yeah, yeah, I know pro wrestling is fake, I watch it just for laughs, but injecting politics into it is a very BAD idea. WTF are the McMahons thinking? But I suppose there's a demographic shift underway so it makes perfect business sense to alienate the 80% to cater to the 20% and growing.
Here's the WWE's response to Beck's "stupid" allegation

To clarify, WWE claims 20% of their fans are Hispanic.

Unless you like money. Lot's and lot's of money.
TV Wrestling has always had it's 'political' characters, because it draws audiences.

That is true of US presidential elections as well.

I can’t picture anybody other than a mental defective watching professional wrestling for more than the 30 seconds it takes to figure out what it is.

I miss GLOW! Little Amy the farmer's daughter was great!
She always managed to save her mother's farm from the evil banker and his minions.

Oh come on! The preacher man, mouth of the south and that million dollar whatever dude was hilarious back in 1990.
It’s a given I haven’t watched since then.

The Iron Sheik came instantly to mind. But before he got involved as a professional, he was a “real” wrestler who had been on the Iranian Olympic team and later was the US national team coach.
