Well folks, we knew it was going to come and bite WWE in the ass one day! All those bikini contests, mud wrestling matches, HLA etc., etc. Pretty great ammo for a political mud-slinging competition, wouldn’t you say? According to The Daily Caller, former WWE CEO Linda McMahon‘s political opposition Rob Simmons is using many a trashy WWE segment in his bid to beat McMahon to a Senate seat.
In particular, Simmons and The Daily Caller bring to light the numerous T&A segments used on WWE television:
The wrestling league has always drawn fire from conservative critics who saw cartoon-like entertainment being marketed to kids that also happened to include two lady wrestlers locking lips, the unveiling of Playboy covers at wrestling matches, and segments flirting with bondage themes and necrophilia. The WWE’s era of explicit programming climaxed with an infamous romp under the covers in the middle of a wrestling ring.
Perhaps more interestingly however, is Simmons’ bringing to light now former WWE Diva Candice Michelle’s history of starring in fetish movies. The article however, incorrectly refers to Candice as if she were currently under employment — WWE released Candice in June of last year.
The article features quotes from Candice and let’s just say, they make for a fascinating read. Follow the cut for more:
