While it sounds interesting, this just isn't for me. I have no experience or training in marketing or public relations and have no idea what I would do. They seem to be looking for a proactive "idea man", and that's something I'm just not. But I figured someone here might be interested in this, so here ya go.

[BUTT]

So it's like a WWE street team.

[Guest heyimbro]

Heh, like I'd waste my time doing that.

[Prophet of Mike Zagurski]

They are looking for the biggest nerd on campus.

[Lil' Bitch]

I want that job. They should do it here.

[The Czech Republic]

They are looking for the biggest nerd on campus.

Are you guys thinking what I'm thinking???

[Jobber of the Week]

So their plan is to get youth in the most trendy and culture-concious moments of their lives to publically admit to watching pro wrestling?

 

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA

[Guest Salacious Crumb]

This is a stupid idea. They need to stop writing about raping corpses and having racists beating minorities before they can expect anyone to willingly market for them.

[Twisted Intestine]

I'd do it just to get my foot in the door with them, because I've always had a dream to be a pro wrestler... and it's hard to make it in the business now days, so the closer you get with the WWE the better
