    Why is Kofi getting attacked by a stand-up comic?

    You know, at some point, I can see referee John Cone go up to a guy (Truth would be great) just to say hello. The guy would be all nervous until Nicholas shows up, then the guy relaxes, gets hit by someone, and Nicholas pins him and becomes the champ. He then goes to school, and has to give up the title because the school complains that kids keep trying to pin Nicholas on the playground.

    The green strap is part of WWF lore. The first WWF belt Hogan held was a big gaudy one with a green strap. I think the Intercontinental title from about 1981-1984 or so looked like that too.

    So in the last day there have been stories that Massaro was drugged and raped by members of the U.S. military while she was on a WWE goodwill trip and Vince asked her to not mentioned it and potentially ruin the WWE's relationship with the military.

    Now I get that wrestling is what it is and it'll never be taken seriously. But if the owner of a billion-dollar publicly-traded company is trying to cover up one of his "independent contractors" being raped on a company trip to protect a relationship with Uncle Sam that seems like a pretty big deal, even if Vince and Trump are boys. Like that's the sort of shit that stockholders MIGHT have a really big issue with.

    I wonder if the E cares about tweets like this.

    I think Bruno, Graham and Backlund had
    a green belt too.

    There is tradition around it.
