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

[Impala64ssa]

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

[dalereed]

anyone watching that excretement is mentally ill!

[driftdiver]

I have never understood why people watch this garbage.

[HenryArmitage]

and both their respective ratings will increase because of this ‘feud’.

[UCANSEE2]

I know pro wrestling is fake

You mean 'pre-scripted' ? Planned and practiced? Designed mostly to entertain?

but injecting politics into it is a very BAD idea

Unless you like money. Lot's and lot's of money.

TV Wrestling has always had it's 'political' characters, because it draws audiences.

[allmendream]

Watch mixed martial arts and the UFC.

It ain't as pretty as the always exciting always moving “let me set you up to body slam me” WWE stuff - but it IS real.

GrecoRoman Wrestlers have a great foundation with MMA - they are used to cutting weight, and wrestling is a great fighting skill.

As far as “politics” - talk to the “Iron Sheik” and “The Russian Nightmare”. ;)

[circlecity]

And this is, somehow, “news”? Really?

[varmintman]

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.

[dartuser]

Yeah, yeah, I know pro wrestling is fake

You lie ...

[Utah Binger]

Is he crying yet?

[Slump Tester]

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.

[BCW]

WWE is real - just like Hollywood movies! (sarc)

[Jack of all Trades]

That tack didn’t work out so well for John Stossel.

Just started watching the WWE about a year ago, and I love it. Sure, the outcomes are scripted, but they are very good athletes. And it’s a lot more entertaining than a lot of the crap on tv these days. And the WWE’s Tribute To The Troops special every year is fantastic. And the troops love it and appreciate it.

“WWE Tribute to the Troops”

As for the Zeb/Del Rio thing, they didn’t have to do that.

[SeminoleCounty]

Glenn Beck attacked Obama Eligibility folks.....and he is more concerned with a wrestling show?

How about devoting time to real issues....like whether this current President is eligible to serve......not whether some steroid freaks said something bad about the TP....

This is the nonsense that helps the liberals win

[UCANSEE2]

Here's John Stossel claiming Wrestling is Fake.

[stylin19a]

Yeah, yeah, I know pro wrestling is fake,

WHAT ?

[Revolting cat!]

Wrestling is better entertainment than NFL and Hollywood!

[snowstorm12]

ha ha

I just got done watching some clips of this jack swagger and zeb coulter guys and it was pretty hilarious. Jack just got done beating down some pretty boy with a tan and he was in pain falling out of the ring. they were saying “this guy is what is wrong with america.”
