As seen in the New York Times today... "He listed some of the more distasteful episodes in the history of World Wrestling Entertainment, the company she and her husband, Vince McMahon, built. They included Mr. McMahon’s penchant for dropping his pants in the ring and having wrestlers kiss his bare bottom." Gotta love the Kiss My Ass Club!

I think I could guess what the article as a whole is in reference to.

Remember guys, stand up for WWE! Heh exactly. And that's the thing, Vince and co. can't cry foul now and claim that shit like that was taken outta context, nothing in that quote was inaccurate nor unfair.

Think that's poor writing, they did not even mention his ass could do tricks!

I can imagine the guy going on for a half hour about octogenarian Mae Young giving birth to a hand, and Kane's tender moments with Katie Vick, and the Rikishi Stinkface, the live sex celebration, and...and... and...

They are not wrestlers, they are sports-entertainers! Such fabrication.

has anyone other than Regal actually ever kiss it? JR and HBK were forced to against their will. And IIRC Mick Foley did it too.

The way I remember it, Chris Masters trapped Janetty in the Master Lock and tried to make him kiss McMahon's ass but then Shawn Michaels came to the rescue. It was actually a pretty good episode. I was impressed with the way they were able to successfully create a genuinely suspenseful atmosphere on a show built around the "Kiss My Ass Club".

Moral of this story: If you have political aspirations, you might not want to associate yourself in a company with so much ass-to-face dynamic. Or storylines written by Vince Russo, for that matter.

I'm still of the opinion that Vince gets "excited" whenever he does that segment.

I'm not gonna stand up for WWE. Everything the McMahons get is their own fault.
No sympathy!

it's like I said in another thread; in a weird way, being the former CEO of the WWE running for office is a lot like being an ex-porn star running for office.

There is something of a double standard though. When Arnold Schwarzenegger was running for Governor of California, some of his opponents might have mentioned that he starred in violent action movies that were marketed to kids (search youtube for Terminator 2 action figures), but they never made it a huge part of their attack strategy against him.
