It was distasteful and hard to watch. Be a star and stop bullying campaigns should just be stopped after that. Also this could hurt Linda's running for governor of Connecticut because although she had nothing to do with it, they could still turn it around on her.

I could care less about Linda McMahon's senate run, but I'm pretty sure the Be A Star thing is hurting more than it's helping because every time WWE doesn't anything "Bully-like" on camera, they can use that against her.

Seems like a cheap thing to bring up, considering they could use Chris 'Child Murderer' Benoit against her for greater effect.

Linda is whole other story, but yes anything to that can be used against her!

Just wasn't classy of Vince to do this. Not at a time like this especially!

Yes, use something that happened in the past that nobody had any real control over instead of using something that is currently and visibly happening.

I think Jericho said it best and that Vince still holds a personal grievance towards JR coming from a WCW background. You can say the same thing for Regal. Its stupid and lame but thats Vince sometimes.

If that's Vince, the guy is fucking petty. Who really cares about the fact the guy has a background in a company that ended over a decade ago because Vince himself bought it. It's such a lame thing to continue to hold a grudge over, if this really is part of the reason for the shit humour at JR's expense. The same goes for Triple H allegedly still holding a grudge against Mick Foley for being the one to put him on the map. Who cares?

Sometimes I hate being a wrestling fan when you read various reports about the politics and all that garbage.

I agree Aniking but that seems to be the case. Vince always holds a grudge over WCW. John Morrison was made because Vince hated the name Nitro because of Nitro. A lot of WCW connections and Vince gets annoyed apparently. Other than Jericho, Eddie, Booker T, and Mysterio, who was really successful coming out of WWE in the company?

Benoit, Foley, Undertaker, Triple H. Yes they were all WCW guys first.

Vince McMahon got a lot of heat this past week from many reporters about his portrayal of Jim Ross and making fun of his Bell's Palsy. Former WWE Creative Writer Joe Franciosi, who worked with the company in 2010, stated that Ross was ridiculed numerous times by Vince and his other staff members.

"I sat through tons of meetings where Vince and tons of others would just shred JR. I wondered why until I met him" This message was posted earlier today on Twitter.

Maybe J.R isn't such a nice guy behind the scenes after all? Or this guy is just trying to get his job back.

But yeah, I think a lot of the crap JR gets he doesn't deserve.

To hold a grudge over something like that is just stupid. Makes me not want to watch WWE just for the fact that I'd be supporting such a douche.

The last line in that guys tweet is a bit weird, alluding to JR being tough to work with possibly. Or the guy could be trying to get more followers by posting something like that.

Yeah I dunno but it's known by many that JR has been well known to be a hard ass, a complete perfectionist, and workaholic. Hence why Jerry says it's easier working with Cole as JR wants everything perfect.

Where did you hear that at? Cause I've never seen Jerry say or even allude to liking working with Cole more over JR.
