Obama To Tape Wrestling Message

Dec 16, 2009

TV Week Reports:

President Barack Obama has agreed to deliver a taped holiday message to the troops on NBC’s “WWE Tribute to the Troops” special.

The special chronicles the three days that the WWE Superstars and Divas spent visiting military bases and features a special live performance in front of thousands of military personnel.

That would seem to undermine the attempts of rivals of WWE co-founder Linda McMahon, now a Senate candidate in Connecticut, to paint professional wrestling as an immoral spectacle.
