One day cricket is fine. Test cricket is boring.
The world cup was awesome.

Meh.
Vince and company makes fun of American culture all the time. It's not just the Brits. Remember the whole Godzilla/JBL thing in Japan?
They do it everywhere.

I’m still hoping for an English wrestler who uses a cricket bat as their signature weapon.

Someone mentioned 'the world in Royal wedding fever'. The only reason anyone I know cares about that at all is because we get a day off work!  I don't personally know anyone in the US who cares about the Royal Wedding, but it's been all over cable news and tabloid shows for the past few weeks. And they're pushing really hard for people to get up at like 4am to watch the festivities live. |

I really hate when they wear the football shirts (soccer jerseys) to try to get a positive audience reaction.
They have no idea how football works and someday they are going to start a riot when a Leeds fans happens to be sitting next to a Millwall fan (for example).

Why can't we have a Normal Raw setting?. We don't really need a the UK flag with a London Taxi on the Ramp all the time.

And remember that hilarious JBL parody of German history? Oh. Right. Really? You're gonna compare goose-stepping to a faux tranquilized JBL threatening to beat up an inflatable Godzilla? f***ing really? The Germany house show was a terrible way to get heat (as was Jericho's Katrina joke in New Orleans), JBL in pink boxers doing battle with a balloon Godzilla? Not even on the same wavelength. |

The bigger issue with the UK tours is the fact that the fans in attendance get short-changed by the sheer lack of matches.

I personally think Canadians get it the worst. There are a few times in the recent years where it seems like the WWE was outright antagonizing them. Not a good way to treat our neighbors to the north.
However, I think the Brits annoyed by this are forgetting they have the same stereotypes about us. My girlfriend in college was from England and some of the stuff her family asked me about American culture was somewhat disturbing coming from such educated people. The truth is that everybody claims to be educated about every culture based on whatever limited exposure they have to it and that is the real problem.

Just wait until they come here... Australia? Hmm... I could see kangaroos, boom-a-rangs, and crocodiles somehow being incorporated into the set design. Any other Aussie stereotypes I'm missing out on? |
