Well, Trump isnt exactly hurting and somehow he doesnt seem like the wrestling fan type.

I read that also, that Donald Trump owns WWE. Also I heard they announced it on WWE Monday night. I can't see him running WWE.

Neither am I but if I thought it would add even more money to my insanely large bank account you can bet I'd do it. He didn't get that rich by accident.

Donald Trump has bought Monday Night Raw, not WWE.... however I'm sure it is just part of a storyline to get fans to watch more.

I just heard it was Raw and not WWE. Like you said it's probably just a gimmick for people to watch. Just got to wait and see.

I think Trump is into owning any buisness that makes money...

...so soon we may see "the Wrestling Apprentice" as a TV series...

with the ring serving as a make swift board room...

"...you did not hit your opponent with a foreign object as you were suppose to, and your entrace to the ring was flawed...your costume sucks...and you just don't fit the story line...YOU"RE FIRED!"

Trump didn't buy Raw it was all storyline, He "Sold it back to Vince" for double the money he bought if for last night. Because he was going to make commercial free Raws, Free live attendance Raws, and pay celebreties to host the show, which would make Vince go broke in a few monthes. He didn't buy it, it was completley storyline but it probably boosted ratings for a week lol

Was that not one of the stupidest storylines EVER? Someone explain to me the logic behind it. McMahon supposedly bought Raw back because Trump was costing him money by giving away free tickets and not running commercials. Uh, how? McMahon "didn't own" the show any more, so he would have no financial interest in it. Trying to follow it makes my head hurt.

Lefty, great to hear from you. I was so surprised to see your name.

Yeah, stupid story line but I suspect it worked. Bet a lot of people followed it.
