Incorrect, Trump hates Amazon, he is always complaining about them for no reason.

Amazon not only sells to Saudi Arabia, they have their version of Amazon.com, called souq.

Nobody is calling out Amazon.

Do I think WWE should promote how great Saudi Arabia is, hell no, even before all this.

But because of Trump, Linda McMahon, the WWE HOF, all that intermixing, WWE is getting the heat. A big part of it is because Trump likes their money and selling them weapons, so this is a way to protest that after what happened.

If Trump was dead set against America working with Saudi Arabia, WWE would get praise for standing up to Trump by the same people who are mad at them now.

That legit makes no sense. Why would WWE get praised for siding with the regime involved in the embassy murder. People are made at the WWE because they don't buy the "progress" excuse and WWE trying to sneakily go ahead with the event. Even WWE's shareholders are not entirely in all praise for the Saudi deal since WWE refuses to let them know the exact details of it.

If anything, it would lead to even more backlash and get rid of any pretext of them being with the Saudis for non-monetary reasons. They'd also be opening themselves to potentially serious legal repercussions if the US were to pass sanctions.

No no no. Nothing to do with the regime or supporting it.

My point is regardless of the situation, the media will spin it and make it about hating Trump.

If WWE could not be tied to Trump, it would not be such an issue. If they were against Trump, the same media would spin WWE in a positive light for going against Trump.

That is all I am saying. Nothing political or a moral stand, just that WWEs portrayal in this story is skewed by the media's hatred for Trump.

WWE going would be a bad move in my opinion either way, but the level of anger and disgust toward them by the high horse media would be far less if WWE was not seen as "Trump Friendly".

Trump's son-in-law has a lot to do with US/Saudi relations. Trump is fully supportive of WWE in this for now.

But they haven't really done so. Most of the discussion involving Trump and WWE revolves around if Trump talked to Vince, maybe WWE would be more likely to cancel or move the event.

Since Trump seems to be of the mindset that it is unfair people are blaming the Saudis, chances of WWE doing anything themselves are slim to none.

WWE would still be catching a ton of heat even if they never had any involvement with or were hated by Trump. In a way, WWE brought this to themselves with their constant and unashamed PR blabber about being a driver of progress for women's wrestling.

Pretty much night & day of how WWE was treated for an event in the UAE I believe when it came to women's wrestling. The government didn't ban it because of ultra conservative religious reasons and WWE's women wrestlers wore full body gear as an acceptable compromise.
