Glenn Jacobs is true to his politics, but his politics felt extremely ill-judged when he tweeted this at the start of recent conflict in the Ukraine;

"If you on the Left and are shocked by Putin's aggression, wake up, Sunshine. Historically in the real world, might makes right. Weakness (which is really what the Left is all about) is not a virtue. It's a fatal character flaw. (And, no, the US should still not get involved)."

Hangman Page was the most prominent from pro wrestling to put the former WWE Champion and current Mayor of Knox County in his place with links to helpful charities and a video of 'The Big Red Machine' taking lot of chair shots to the head.

Even those that may have skewed right didn't have much nice to say about the controversial remarks, not least because of the timing and potency. Like a lot of sh*t, it'll probably stick too.
