I'm sure many here are aware of what happened a couple of days ago when a civilian airliner, a Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 was shot down over the skies of Ukraine and Russia. Its really tragic and I'm still at a lost for words about what happened.
I then suddenly remembered the angle Rusev and Lana have with the WWE with them boasting about Russia and having Vladimir Putin on the tron week in and week out. I'm wondering if this incident will affect the angle? How will it also affect the match with Rusev and Swagger this Sunday? What do you guys think?

Hopefully it wont affect the angle. I'm loving the feud between the two and things like this only add fuel to the fire. With this in mind Swagger is going to end up being incredibly over.

Swagger has to go over or the crowd will crap all over it. I'm sure they'll stop posting vlad on the tron but they shouldn't drop the angle all together

It's possible, but I doubt it.

I hope it doesn't effect it because I'm loving this feud and I would hate to see it stop.

Not unless/until it gets negative National media. If the only people that are recognizing it is wrestling fans, they'll continue to do whatever they want.

Hope not. As tragic as it is, WWE hasn't crossed that line just yet.
Within two weeks of this feud starting Swagger seems to be getting some of the loudest pops on RAW. Though I know he'll most likely lose this feud, he needs to come out looking stronger than ever. WWE may have finally found the outlet to make Swagger a success.

I sure hope so i can't wait of the day Cena buries him. Send his ass back down to Nxt. and bring up the Ascension so we put an end to endless usos/Haper/rowan rematchs. And or Sami Zayn,Tyler Breeze,Adrian Neville. Guys with talent and don't have to depend on a cheap lazy overplayed gimmick to get a reaction.

Look what happened with Muhammad Hussan...who knows. I was thinking about this topic today & Hassan's name popped into my head. I do think they will at the very least quit referencing Putin. Perhaps they won't mention Russia as much (if ever) but they'll continue to bury the US.

Would not be surprised at all if Swagger goes over BIG TIME now and gets everyone behind the USA
With all what's going on now. How can they seriously show Putins face on WWE PG programming? Let alone call him the "world leader" and that "mother Russia is superior to all"
After this. They really need to just write Lana and rusev off for a while.
Either that or that can actually be edgy and have one of the most controversial stories on Televison be featured on their show. But not likely and would be tasteless.

Has everyone forgotten all the **** that Putin and Russia have been doing all year? Why would they stop now? It's the reason they started doing it in the first place.

Hope not, this is entertainment and they've been using real life events in storylines for a long time.

Ugh.
Another reason why I hate these American Hero vs. Evil Foreigner feuds.

Probably not. It doesn't seem like too much of a touchy subject.

I was JUST about to post this. I doubt that they will change it though.
Although with WWE I've seen them shut down more hamless stuff for being too edgy.
Someone should post that promo that had Zeb and Swagger go out of character to explain the story of the fued with Swagger and Del rio
