Trent 0 #1 December 24, 2004 On UPN they're running a WWE event that was held in Iraq. That's wrasslin' for all you non-rednecks. If you caught any of it so far, I think it's a really great thing that they're doing. All motives for publicity aside, the troops seem super into it and Vince McMahon gave them a very very nice thank you, in that WWE kinda way. As cheesey as it may be, I just thought that was really cool of them to do that for our troops who won't be home for Christmas. Oh and the troops booed the negativity in the media. They also just booed the "French" wrassler who walked in waving the French flag. How fun!Oh, hello again! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getting "Hurt" in any war Zone is real world stuff unlike acting in the square circle Big boy's and bigger toy's. 500 lbs just means he's a bigger target. Merry Xmas R.I.P.

I'm not into wrestling, just pointing out that most celebrities never venture outside Kuwait when doing these shows. The ones that do stay in the big bases like BIAP, TQ, Al Asad, or the Green Zone. It would be nice if they'd make trips to smaller, hotter locations like camp Fallujah, FOB Ar Ramadi, or other FOB's where the population is more in need of being cheered up. Of course, you'd have to get the celebrities to accept a little risk... well, okay, a significant amount of risk.
