To hear Vince MCMahon's comments.....this video covers it all.
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZW1Y4Lg9yM"]YouTube - WWE vs. Denver Nuggets[/ame]
Personally, I find McMahon to be a compete douchebag. He is definitely in the top 5 a-holes of alltime.

Yeah, and as long as it's been since the Nuggets have done this well, they shouldn't be getting any grief over that. They can go wrestle in the parking lot.

Vince McMahon is absolutely right in this case. The Nuggets and the owner screwed this up big time. No faith in their team and now they're going to pay for it.

It should be about who made the contract first.
And hell. In this case it's basketball. Even if the nuggets made the contract first I say let wrestling come in and take over anyway.SICK likes this. -

McMahon could stand up for his side of the dispute without insulting the other guy and waving Lakers jerseys in his face. The guy is a complete douche.gunn34 and King Felix like this. -

Say what you want about Vince McMahon but he's a very smart and he knows whatever he says will be free press to the WWE and right now he's getting tons of it.
The problem is he's right and pretty much everyone in the media is siding with him here. He has a contract that has been in place since August and was signed back in April. For everyone saying that the WWE should just leave and let the Nuggets play instead are missing the point not only all the legal aspects of it but that it screws the WWE out of RAW, which is their flagship TV show and it runs live every Monday. With the NBA kicking them out it will cost the WWE tons of money in both gates (10k already bought tickets to that event), advertising, travel costs, TV and merchandise. Plus I'd be willing to bet that RAW probably would beat Game 4 in the ratings too.
Ultimately I bet the WWE gets a huge pay out from the NBA to give the Nuggets the arena and just does a live RAW from MSG and I'm sure the whole show will be centered around the NBA 'screwing' them. -

It's not about a paycheck, and it's too bad that nobody expected the Nuggets to go this far when Vince reserved the Forum for his wrestling b.s. REGARDLESS, the Denver Nuggets have gone farther in the playoffs than ever before, That doesn't hold precendence over a hollywood bs scripted wrestling match? Let the guys play basketball! They've earned it, and so has the community that's supported them by coming to the games and buying the memorablia that's available. Whomever whens this series, Lakers or Nuggets, I'm just glad that an underdog like Denver got a shot. So ****, that fake wrestling crap. Let people work for what they've earned to do, which is play for the NBA West Finals................:up:

If those kids in CO can watch the Nuggets win a Championship, that would be way better than a fake *** Wrestling tournament. It's better for the public, it's better for the kids, it's better for the community, let 'em play the basketball game, dammit! -
wrestling being fake or whatever holds no water......it doesnt matter if it is a sex-toy conference......they have the rights to the arena for almost a year in advanced.....they signed the contract.....they have millions of dollars of their company invested in this happening monday....and like someone said....10 thousand people already bought tickets for the event.....how ****ty does it look for any buisiness to tell your fans who spent their hard earned money on their event in this economy "oh sorry guys....no more event....the owner of the arena reneged on our contract"
its utter bull**** and the owner of the nuggets is the biggest douche of all out of all of this..... -

Regarding the Dolphin playoff question of course I'd be pissed and would complain about it but it doesn't take away the fact that the WWE has a contract and the right to be there.

McMahon is moving RAW to LA.

Should be a very interesting RAW. I'm willing to bet the WWE is going to do something big to try and beat the Lakers/Nuggets in the ratings that night to stick it to the NBA because that's just the way McMahon is.Big E likes this. -
