10 Most Insane Conspiracy Theories In WWE History

10. WWE & The Illuminati

The Illuminati are a favourite topic of conspiracy theorists around the world, so it’s only natural that WWE would become subject to such tales. Believers will tell you that the Illuminati are a secret organisation of the world’s most powerful and influential elites. They’re a centuries-old group quietly pulling the strings behind the world’s major goings-on, with their ultimate goal being a one-world government that will allow them complete control over the entire planet.

From Jay-Z to Starbucks, it’s seems that most of the world’s major individuals and corporations have been linked to the Illuminati at some point. In WWE’s case, the theory comes from the company’s regular use of Illuminati imagery like the all-seeing eye and pyramid during their programming. The Ascension’s ring attire and entrance video provide the most recent example, but Triple H has also been known to sport such symbols.

One particularly daft theory suggests that The Ascension are Illuminati plants set loose to destroy the sport from within. If that’s the case than the Illuminati must really suck at their jobs, because poor old Konnor & Viktor have been as effective as an umbrella in a hurricane. Still, this idea will likely persist for as long as they’re active in WWE.
