Topic: U.S. Senators urge Vince McMahon to pull out of their Saudi Arabia arrangements.

Externally hosted imageI would have never thought that global politics would play a major role in a professional wrestling event. The U.S. government is even coming down on WWE, Inc. insisting that they pull out of Saudi Arabia and cancel all future arrangements with the country. So far, no plans have been made to cancel the event, but many of their workers refuse to travel to the nation.

I tell ya, that Saudi Arabia is one bad apple. Too bad the illuminati seems to be pals with the princes.

According to that one guy yelling into his camera, the people of the KSA requested that the Ultimate Warrior and Yokozuna appear at the Greatest Royal Rumble without realizing that they passed away some time ago. Definitely goes to show you how much of the world that gets blocked out within their borders. That almost makes me feel sad for them.

Yes, whom wouldn't know that the ultimate warrior and yukazono were dead?

Who says being dead means they couldn't attend?

Wrestling fans would have known unless they were cut off from that information.
Plus Warrior's death was a trending topic on social media for a day or two so they would have known.

WWE is insanely popular there actually.

Though they do edit out the women's matches apparently.

WWE got into trouble for showing an advertisement for something that featured their female talent.

Speaking of which, a 4channer got signed to WWE.

Manny Faberino, he's also a Trump supporter.

There’s no Internet filter there. They probably only speak Arabic and don’t read English only WWE wikis.

I hope Vince loves that oil money since they apparently worked out a 10-year deal worth billions of dollars.

I still cannot get over the fact that this oil-rich nation is spending their money on a rasslin' show.
