1. Buy a Swaggie! 2. Make your own Swagger Soaring Eagle costume and wear it to all wrestling events. 3. Perform ankle locks on your enemies. 4. Write a letter to your local newspaper swearing your support for Swagger! 5. Buy a Swagger Soaring Eagle plushy. Make sure you cuddle with it every night! 6. Make "It tastes like freedom!" your Facebook status. 7. Adopt a lisp. 8. Upload videos of yourself singing the Boomer Sooners song to Youtube. 9. Follow Jack Swagger on Twitter. 10. Check back regularly for updates! Let's not forget: 11. ARMBAR! 12. WHY AREN'T YOU TALKING ABOUT THE STAND UP FOR WWE PROGRAM MORE?! And yeah, I had a rant about this, but I decided to can it in respect to the mods. Needless to say...I'm not doing a one of those goddam steps.

People can say it's petty but it's still true they catch a lot of flack in the media. And? It's not like they look any better for saying, "WWE is a respected, world-wide company with a great deal of WORSHIP US! PRAISE BE TO HIS LORD CHRIST VINCE MCMAHON! PAY ATTENTION TO US!!"

I found it to be a wee bit in the middle between modesty and demanding deification myself. I'd rather watch, um, a wrestling show than that promotional video but, hey, why not brag a little. I know I would.

How about instead of "Standing Up" for WWE, we...
STAND BACK!
(Video removed due to copyright issues.)
Sigh!

I felt like I just got a job at WWE and that I was watching an orientation video during that.

The bad press will probably never go away, but it will after November...........but will come back up once something else happens.
It is an endless cycle with pro wrestling and honestly, WWE should feel kind of flattered that the media is taking the time to actually bash your company. Trust me, TNA couldn't get that kind of press if they wanted to. But I understand WWE's god given right for self defense against those who wish to attack.

78% of our audience is over 18. (90% of our content is aimed at 10 year olds.)

I can imagine how this could end badly.
WWE: Stand up for WWE, tell the world how awesome we are.
Typical WWE internet fan: F-- you, you don't like WWE? you homo's, you probably hate america.

This campaign coincides a little too nicely with a certain election in Connecticut that is coming up. I wouldn't say that there's too many critiques that are "unfair" to the WWE, but whatever. I'm just gonna stay seated on my couch.

Vince McMahon asking wrestling fans to send in VIDEOS of themselves defending WWE WILL NOT END WELL. I love wrestling, but let's face it, most of these people need to stay in the shadows...forever. Hillbillies and imbeciles will be drawn to this like flies and will only contribute to stereotypes and sabotage this cause completely. Think Youtube shooters - now picture tens of thousands of them all at once, on one page. Now picture thousands of non-fans laughing at them all and having the world’s percptions proven right.

So essentially everyone will look at the fans in South Park's "WTF" episode and think that's all pro wrestling fans. ...f***.
