Who says it's "family friendly"?

    Poor Vickie, I'd like to know just how much input she has into her character. I can't believe she would have agreed to this, it must be humiliating for her surely?

    In regards to WWE's new "kid friendly" direction, I guess it would have to depend on your definition of that term to have an opinion on it!

    That's some weird sh*t! I know WWE had mentioned the existance of nude Vickie photos on smackdown but why the need to put them up on WWE.com as if they were real nude photos that someone managed to find? It's blatenly a photo shoot that WWE did for this specific reason; the fact that half of the photos are blacked out shows that beyond any doubt!

    Family friendly my a$$! If they were really committed to being a family friendly show, they wouldn't be doing this sort of stuff.

    I really don't understand why they need to do this or what it adds to the show. It's not like they need to do this to get more heat on Vickie! She's a heat machine as it is!

    I've seen more nudity on a skin care ad.

    True, but I think the pictures suggest that Vicki had to strip nude and pose for these pictures. Maybe I'm blind and her head has been photoshopped onto a body that looks like her own?:confused:

    Before anyone says it, I'm not a prude. This isn't a playboy shoot that celebrates a diva. It's just a longstanding issue now that the WWE have taken the piss out of Vickie and her looks with embarassing comments made toward her from Batista and Triple H. Now this.

    That's pretty low alright but they've scraped the barrel in worse ways over the years.

    So I am assume everyone would be equally outraged if Mc Cool or Maryse had done this?:rolleyes:
    You see nothing so whats the big fuss? :confused:

    Meh, to me this is just an attempt to get hits on the website.

    And if everyone that has read this thread has then.....

    I'm also not a prude, I have zero problem with naked women, in fact I would encourage nakedness of the female form:pac:. The nudity is not my issue with this at all. I just don't see any point to WWE doing this naked photo angle. What gain is there for any party involved in this? It makes WWE's family friendly policy look questionable, Vickie already gets enough heat on her own without any of this.

    As far as i can see, the only thing this serves to do is to embarass Vickie. If anyone can see any other purpose this angle serves, please do say, cos i can't think of any!

    Agreed, it's not the issue here. I was just protecting myself from any attacks with that angle on it.:p

    Again I agree. I mean what was the point of this "storyline" other than providing Triple H with some material for his promos taking the piss out of her?

    Like I said, it's not the nudity that I have a problem with. And yes, McCool or Maryse would be different as they are not middle aged mothers of 2 and they wrestle in skimpy enough gear as it is. It's quite clear that if either of the above posed nude, it would be to gain publicity and further their career by getting a big push. I can't imagine Vickie would have the same reasons; in fact, I can't imagine that she would even want to do this at all for that matter.

    As I said, it's not a playboy spread "celebrating" a diva. Tell me, what is the point of this subplot within a main event storyline other than to give Triple H material for his "comedic" one liners?

    You can't really speak for her. She's probably amazingly comfortable in her skin and is glad to pose nude.

    True, i can't speak for her. But if I can't, neither can you;). None of us know for certainty what she's like or what her attitude to posing nude is. We can only speculate and my speculative comment is equally valid as yours.

    Exactly just because she does not look like Maryse, it does not mean that she is not totally comfortable with herself. The women has become a star over the last year and the WWE deserve credit for this, the pictures are harmless enough,and I doubt she would have agreed to do them if she did not want to.

    Good on her, she's a fine thing


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 230 ✭✭dara95


    that is completely disgusting!!!!

    she older than my grandma + shes way too old to be doing that kinda stuff


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 474 ✭✭john concannon


    If she is doing this by her own free will let her off, BUT if Vince is forcing her to do this then I have a problem.

    Lets remember she has to feed her family.
