Granted, Vince McMahon has had a bad run of luck this past year&#8230;<a target="_blank" href="http://awfulannouncing.blogspot.com/2007/06/wwe-puts-your-leagues-marketing.html" >his limo was blown up last June</a>&#8230;.oh, until that whole messy (literally and figuratively) Chris Benoit double-murder thing happened.  Then he was ok.  Whew, good thing these real life situations are so reversible!</p><p>Fun Chris Fact: I try not to divulge personal work stuff here, but it&#8217;s totally relevant so whatever. I worked for WWE&#8217;s PR department last year during the time Vince&#8217;s limo blew up.  I will preface this by saying that I greatly enjoyed my time at WWE and was treated extremely well.  It was an awesome experience and made me even better at what I do.  But holy crap that was f&#8217;ing ridiculous.  I had to pretend TO LEGITIMATE MEDIA that Vince McMahon has actually been blown up in a limo accident.  Actually, no, I couldn&#8217;t say &#8220;Vince McMahon&#8221;.  I had to say &#8220;MR. MCMAHON&#8221; (because that&#8217;s the character).  I remember talking to a producer at <em>Extra</em> about it and he was like, &#8220;Funny stunt after that ending of <em>The Sopranos</em>, eh?&#8221;  And I replied, in a complete stoic delivery, &#8220;Funny?  Sir, this is tragic.&#8221;  Granted, as you know by now, I relish in being a douchebag, but as a PR person, I&#8217;m pretty good.  So I felt annoyed and sad that day.  Not to mention that I received calls from legitimate newspapers (granted, most were small town), asking if Vince was okay.  Seriously people?  Seriously?</p><p>Anyway yeah, sure hope Vince is okay.  Stupid media.</p><p><strong>RELATED GREATNESS</strong><br /> -<a target="_blank" href="http://brahsome.com/2008/04/30/thats-your-daughter-brother/" >Hulk Hogan likes to oil up his daughter&#8217;s ass a bit too much</a><br /> -<a target="_blank" href="http://www.uncoached.com/2008/04/03/shes-uncoachable-louise-glover/" >Louise Glover might be the sexiest WWE Diva of all time</a><br /> -<a target="_blank" href="http://yepyep.gibbs12.com/2008/06/backyard-wwe-stunt-goes-wrong/" >Pro Tip: Leave the WWE stunts to the professionals, not guys in a backyard with a trampoline (w/ video)</a><br /> -<a target="_blank" href="http://www.on205th.com/2008/04/which-wwe-diva-past-present-looks-best.html" >Which WWE Diva looks best sans clothing (NWS)?</a><br /> -<a target="_blank" href="http://cuzoogle.com/2008/04/04/beauty-barbie-blank/" >WWE Diva Kelly Kelly is kind of awesome in every way.</a><br /> -<a target="_blank" href="http://brahsome.com/2008/04/21/wwfe-gets-political/" >Hillary and Obama know how to cater to WWE fans</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://guyism.com/2008/06/houston-reporters-think-wrestling-is-real.html/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>6</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
