Enigma

Vince was behind the hometown changes

Recommended Posts

CHANGE HOMETOWNS

 

Meanwhile, DeMarco confirmed Vince McMahon was behind a decision to change the announced hometown of various Canadian fan favourites -- including Winnipeg's own Chris Jericho -- to locations south of the border.

 

"It came from Vince himself," said DeMarco. "What Vince is trying to do is he's trying to portray reality as to where the WWE superstars are now residing from."

 

However, Jericho doesn't live in Manhasset, N.Y. -- where WWE ring announcers now bill him as being from. Although Jericho was born there, he was raised in St. James and now lives in Tampa.

 

He told The Sun earlier this week he still considers Winnipeg his hometown.

 

DeMarco fended off suggestions Canadian fans should be offended by the move.

 

"I don't think anyone is trying to take away the history, the heritage and the roots that our Canadian wrestlers have," said DeMarco.

 

"I don't think Canadian fans should be offended -- they should be very proud."

 

The full article is here.

 

Excuse me, but why would this be something to be proud of.

Why the hell is Gail Kim now from Korea, then? She wasn't born OR raised there. And she certainly doesn't live there now.

And Korea's not even country. There's North Korea and South Korea.

Its Vague Korea maybe her family came from the North and they don't want Gail to be booed for being Communist or something.... She is a Kim after all..

 

heh they should rehire Sato like they did when they had him manage Hakushi...and Give him a Bad Hair Don King Wig and Call him "Uncle Kim" Ruler of North Korea to be her Manager

I knew that $250,000 investment in Kevin Nash's Contract should have been spent on getting Vince that $3.49 Globe from the local OddLots.

What're you talking about? She's a heel. That is EXACTLY what they'd want her to be booed for if they did that.
