10 Stupidest Things WWE EVER Promoted
6. Val Venis & John Wayne Bobbitt's Joint Press Conference
The story of John Wayne Bobbitt is a long way from the wacky tales of a guy tracking down his gentleman's agreement following an uncomfortable severing by an angry former partner.
Even a cursory glance at how he treated ex-wife Lorena before the incident that made global celebrities of the pair of them (and proto-memes of the moment) paints enough of a hideous picture that sympathy for him's non-existent.
But if you're Vince McMahon, Vince Russo or most roaring adolescents watching WWE in 1998, you probably considered her "crazy", laughed at a guy losing his cack and immediately went searching for this on the Network because last week on Raw Val Venis had his d*ck cut off with a samurai sword!
He didn't, obviously, and this press conference with the one person in the world who could consider it relatable content was orchestrated and escalated in order for them to put this across.
