Archive

– SI.com yesterday posted the following as a “Signs of the Apocalypse” item: In promoting its April 30 pay-per-view event, World Wrestling Entertainment is advertising a tag-team match in which God will team with Shawn McMichaels (sic) to face Vince McMahon and his son Shane McMahon. The event, by the way, is on a Sunday.

– Also yesterday, on Keith Olbermann’s MSNBC show, he said: Vince McMahon of World Wrestling Entertainment, the man who actually somehow worsened the reputation of pro-wrestling, has done it again, claiming that a week from Sunday his organization will televise a tag-team match featuring McMahon and his son Shane versus wrestler Shawn Michaels and God. Yes, all-mighty. You can see Vince take third place in the battle of rotten people here.
