5 Most Insane Things Happening In Wrestling Right Now (Oct 19)

5. JBL's Take On Saudi Arabia

JBL was asked for his take on how WWE should react to the furore on the Fox Business Network by Stuart Varney. With a certain confidence, he took a breath, and said the following:

"WWE, f*ck yeah! Coming again to save the motherf*cking day yeah!"

That's barely a joke; Layfield actually said that:

"My personal opinion is that they should go. You isolate a country, all you do is impoverish that country."

It's Saudi Arabia, John. They will be fine.

"WWE went to Abu Dhabi. They did the first women's match that ever happened in the middle east."

TNA beat WWE to that by seven years, but WWE did go purely for the good of mankind, so we'll let him off.

"I have spent seven Christmases in Iraq and Afghanistan with the WWE."

The Afghanistan conflict is still ongoing. After 17 years. John Cena did not go over the Taliban.

"You wanna change Saudi Arabia? Send WWE."

Why stop there? Why can't WWE cure all the world's ills?

Nia Jax has already put an end to body shaming. Maybe Drew Gulak could meet with diplomatic officials and explain what's happened with a Powerpoint presentation.

And why not task Finn Bálor with solving the worldwide mental health crisis? One look at that smile, and you too can learn just how to have fun out there.
