Before you get your panties all in a bunch, allow me to explain the story behind this final game...

A while ago, the Pro Wrestling Torch covered news of the WWE winning a lawsuit over the company Lewmar. In case you don't know, Lewmar made the harness that Owen Hart was wearing the night he fell from the rafters. Following the accident Owen Hart’s widow first sued the WWE and Lewmar but later she agreed to a deal with Lewmar dropping that company from her lawsuit.

Later on, the WWE sued Lewmar when it was revealed Lewmar and Martha Hart had entered into a bad faith agreement dropping Lewmar from the lawsuit even though Lewmar had offered her no settlement.  The WWE produced a smoking gun at trial, a memo proving Lewmar had informed all their European clients that their shackles were not to be used or sold for stunt purposes as they could not handle the weight. This memo WAS NOT sent to inform Lewmar's customers in America.

So without further ado, here's another rasslin' inspired video game...

SATIRE: DISCONTINUED WWE XMAS PRODUCTS!

by Sean Carless

With Christmas just around the corner, what better way to spend your few remaining dollars (left over after the seemingly infinite line-up of fucking pay-per-views ) then on the following "quality WWE merchandise!" After all, if they don't move this stuff, and fast, stockholders just might get time to figure out what "plummeting domestic buyrates" means!... and well, I don't think they need to tell you what that means! (Seriously. They're not telling you. Everything is fine! Ahem.).
