The majority wish it was Jericho instead of the poor man's Jericho, Miz.

Edge vs. Del Rio vs. Christian vs. Mysterio please....
Posted By: hmm (Guest) on February 22, 2011 at 12:55 PM
Nice, they're going to two decimal places on the impact rating now. That way it should show some movement week to week.

Someone is still on WWEs payroll ;) All of those suck. Taker/HHH happened already, Everyone wants Rock/Cena.. we get Rock helping Cena beat the Miz instead. Del Rio isnt ready for a world title.

Rock would job to cena in a match.

Maybe the last two weeks of Raw were Vince's message to his wife: stop wasting our money, because I tanked my business for two years to help your political career and it did jack squat.

WWE should induct sting to the HOF.

Jericho is a WWE guy.
Posted By: Guest#9173 (Guest) on February 22, 2011 at 01:31 PM
Jericho will be returning to WWE soon for sure.
Posted By: Guest#2716 (Guest) on February 22, 2011 at 01:31 PM
Jericho loves the WWE.

Jericho will return to get revenge on orton soon. Jericho vs orton at Summerslam.

Linda didn't waste WWE's money on the last campaign, that was her own money. Know the difference people.
Why is it when Linda spent that much money it was referred to as "buying" a seat, but when Socialist Obama did it in 2008, no one said anything about it??
You don't "buy" seats, it's for the public to decide. Give Linda a chance because she was a political novice. She probably picked up a lot experience running in the mid-terms.
I think creating jobs is more important than some stupid fake wrestling drama being PG.

There, he doesn't have to bother now.
Posted By: Xetal (Guest) on February 22, 2011 at 01:49 PM
I could be wrong and I'm too lazy to look but isn't that viewership number higher than normal even though the rating stayed the same?
Posted By: gpjunk (Guest) on February 22, 2011 at 01:53 PM
I'm gonna start a tally of how many wrestlers are let go between the day Linda announces her candidacy and the day of the election so that she can afford the $60m she pours into another futile campaign.
Linda McMahon: "I'm for creating jobs! Except in my own company!"
No, but seriously, I hope she runs. You think she got trounced in 2010, a big Republican year? Wait and see how she fares in a PRESIDENTIAL election, when more than a quarter of eligible voters go out and and ballots, in CONNECTICUT.
It's gonna be awesome.
Posted By: Guest#0286 (Guest) on February 22, 2011 at 02:15 PM
man, do not compare Jericho to miz. miz is not even good enough to be a poor man's Jericho, more like a poor man's Brian Knobs or a poor man's Sid Vicious.
Posted By: Guest#4726 (Guest) on February 22, 2011 at 02:28 PM
Rich people only spend massive amounts of cash to become lawmakers out of the goodness of their hearts, spurred by a real desire to improve the lives of us filthy peon losers. anyone who says otherwise is a commie islamist frenchman
after all, judging by the exemplary business morality displayed by the wwe over the years, why should we fear one of the 'blackhearted' mcmahon family buying power?
Posted By: Guest#4249 (Guest) on February 22, 2011 at 02:30 PM
Did Vince McMahon hack Jericho's account?

===============================
You are such a hypocrite. You defend Linda for doing the same things Obama did, then you call him a socialist. You are one of the reasons so many people troll the politics section of this site.

Linda must be running since you're still on her payroll. How much do you get paid to post this drivel? You're not fooling anybody. Nobody would be so in love with a political candidate unless they're getting paid to do so. BTW, feel free to rebut with "No, i'm just being a concerned citizen." Which anybody with half a brain knows is bullshit :lol

I like how people refuse to believe Jericho could possibly be a fan of all the people he mentioned.

Come back to me when learn how to create a job like Linda McMahon does. It's apathetic people like you that have partly left this country in a sorry state. Do you even HAVE a job in this economic crisis? Don't you believe that it's more important for the economy to recover than WWE's prgramming being PG-rated?
For all the people who bash Linda's aspirations for that...I feel sorry for you. Are your lives that sad and empty that you cannot comprehend a world where your favorite play actors in trunks don't get to curse or something?

the rock and latex get owned this week!

I know the average fan would be fooled by what Jericho said, but with my analytic skills, he's in-fact being sarcastic.
There's a bit of a code in what he says, Jericho can be seen as bit of an ant, with burrowing in & out of the WWE every so often, getting money for his queen bea when ready, and if you haven't noticed ant = TNA backwards, so Jericho in TNA soon?

---------------------------------
I have a serious question. Do you get paid per post or do they pay you a weekly salary for this? I doubt they would pay a salary for something so stupid as trolling a message boards but it might be a good way to make a couple of extra bucks on the side. So I just need to know what the going rate is for going to message boards and acting retarded? It might not be worth if it's like .50 a post or something, but if it's more I'll be more than happy to become a forum troll. :)

Jericho still doing the obligatory hard sell for his former employer. either that or he's being really sarcastic.

what jobs have you created that you're so qualified to say "come back when etc" on a wrestling site's comment page? do you know how clownish you seem?
it's partisan, hyperbole loving, rhetoric spouting jackasses like you that "have partly left this country in a sorry state". your brand of bullshit breeds apathy, and you and your ilk are too busy shouting words like "socialist" (of which i doubt you know the real meaning) to notice.
also, nobody was arguing that the economy is less important than the WWE being PG. you created that asinine argument yourself. one-way arguments practiced by assholes like you only make you look more stupid than you actually are, assuming that's even possible.
and why ask "do you even HAVE a job in this economy"? is that relevant? what job do you have that's so prestigious and wonderful that you get to be such a condescending douchebag about what other people do to make a living?
run along junior, go learn more about the world than what the "news media" tells you.
silly little sheep.
