Stand Up For WWE

I'm Back and I'm glad and frustrated! The WWE has launched a campaign called "Stand Up For WWE", I'm extremely glad that it's happened and feel it's long overdue! The WWE has been criticized continuously for years because of many different things that have been negative for YEARS! Many media outlets continuously have called out the WWE for their programming, storylines, drug abuse by performers, etc! However NONE of these outlets mentions how much GOOD the WWE has done! It's about time these actions also get mentioned! The WWE does a LOT of charity work through the Make A Wish Foundation providing children with wishes! They also have programs such as The Wrestlemania Reading Challenge, Smackdown Your Vote, and many others to help show it's viewers the importance of such things! The WWE comes into your homes each week with different storylines via a TV for ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES! Some of the performers are parents and regulate how much of their shows their own children watch! WWE programming has a TV PG rating and is as family friendly as many of the TV shows on today! You can look at shows like Jersey Shore, The Real World, and many Soap Operas that show more drinking, sex, and violence than WWE programming and it's on tv in THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY! WWE programming doesn't come on TV until 8 or 9 pm, when most children are getting ready FOR BED! Many movies are also more violent than WWE programming! Is there a dark side to wrestling? Yes! I've heard the stories as have many wrestling fans, but are they ANY different in other professions? Do we here of drug abuse in Hollywood? YES! Do we hear of fights or racial slurs coming from other "Celebrities"? YES! Yet these people are constantly given chance after chance but WWE superstars and the WWE are constantly looked down upon because many feel the programming to be too violent. I have one bit of advice for those people..... DON'T WATCH IT! The WWE and it's superstars do some much good and bring tons of entertainment to people of all ages it's time that the good they do comes to the forefront! The WWE Superstars bring smile to thousands of people in different arenas, take pictures and give as much as they can in the ring every night! They put their bodies on the line just to bring a smile to a child"s face! They deserve RESPECT! You may not enjoy their products but these men and women ARE ATHLETES! Make NO mistake. If you think it's easy to be on the road 300 days a year and do what they do then I CHALLENGE YOU to get in the ring and do it! Find out how "fake" WWE REALLY IS! I guarantee you'll have a better appreciation for what the Superstars go through on a daily basis! The funniest part of the negative things said in the press the last few weeks is that in 2008 John McCain, Hilary Clinton and President Barrack Obama ALL appeared on an episode of Monday Night Raw to promote their candidacy for president. Do you remember that? Go to a WWE show and see how many NFL players, MLB players, NBA players, Actors and Actresses are in attendance. How many have appeared as guest host on Raw in the last year? It's time the positive side of the WWE gets some time in the spotlight!

Until Next Time!
