nativetexan Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 I would pay to see this...Simply because seeing at least one of them getting their butt kicked would be pure satisfaction... http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/04/12/wwe-invites-obama-clinton-to-one-on-one-smackdown/ Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama — Get in the ring. That’s the challenge from WWE, which has issued an open invitation to the deadlocked Democrats to settle their differences “the American way — in a wrestling match.” Seriously. World Wrestling Entertainment aired the video invitation Tuesday, calling for a bona fide smackdown on Monday night RAW April 21. “What we’re trying to do is provide both Senator Clinton and Senator Obama an opportunity to speak to more than 8 million viewers of our program … which is the night before the Pennsylvania primary,” WWE spokesman Gary Davis told FOXNews.com. What exactly the world of professional wrestling expects Clinton and Obama to do in that ring is unclear. The announcer in the ad, now on the WWE Web site, declares, “Forget about who’s better prepared when the phone rings at 3 a.m., and find out who’s better when the bell rings.” So what? An arm wrestling match? A very aggressive debate? A cage fighting tournament? “I think the invitation itself is self-explanatory,” Davis said. “Get into the ring and resolve their differences.” The professional wrestling sector has been relatively quiet on the political front ever since “Nature Boy” Ric Flair stopped tag teaming with Mike Huckabee. But Davis said all the while WWE has had an aggressive “SmackDown Your Vote” program to get young voters registered. Davis said WWE is still in talks with both candidates over the proposed match.

Texan_Til_I_Die Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I believe that Senator Obama is too much of a gentleman to ever hit a lady. Oh, wait a minute! In that case he'd probably knock the tar out of Hillary!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
