So we fell for it again? The gullible wrestling fans and mainstream media have falling into yet another trap by the mischievous mind of Vince McMahon and the WWE. By now I’m sure most of you are aware that conservative figure Glenn Beck has been “Invited” to share his reactions to Jack Swagger’s gimmick and the “outrage” it has spawned in the conservative world. What we fail to realize is that all of us just might have fallen into yet another trap set by the WWE to gain mainstream coverage of Wrestlemania.
I’ve been reflecting on the events of the past week and when I read that Glenn Beck has been invited to Raw it all clicked for me. You see each year the WWE works hard at trying to find a way to get the mainstream media to cover Wrestlemania. Every year around this time something always seams to come up that grabs the medias attention. Let’s face it the WWE and others have learned to utilize public figures for their product over the years. Remember when Vince McMahon upset Donald Trump? That lead to a Wrestlemania moment where Trump ended up shaving McMahon’s head.
Facts to consider
Wrestlemania 29 is being held at Metlife Stadium
Glenn Beck does his radio show and online television work from New York
Jack Swagger has one of the main events for Wrestlemania (for now) next to The Rock of course
Let’s face it the WWE has always enjoyed pushing the button on those hot-button issues and are willing to go all out and admit they are entertainment, do storylines and whatever else it will take to make the mainstream media belive in whatever is going on during Wrestlemania season
I predict we will see Glenn Beck involved in some way at Wrestlemania. Things aren’t always what they seam.
