The celebrity/NFL segments on last week’s WWE SmackDown Live didn’t go over well backstage. The critique was the segments did not look realistic and the celebrities revealed a clear low level of knowledge about the current WWE product.
One superstar issued the following anonymous statement to WrestlingNews.co:
“[WWE] can’t help themselves. It always makes me cringe when you see them trying so hard to show everyone how mainstream they are. It actually makes the company look worse because it is so obvious to the people watching at home that the NFL guys being asked to talk about WWE don’t know anything about current wrestling. We’ll never shake off the stigma with mainstream media if Vince keeps scripting silly stuff on the shows.”
