Would you be happy if Vince McMahon bought F1 off Bernie?

Also, rivalries between drivers and teams would be much more exciting with WWE style hype videos and interviews. Imagine how much better Felipe and Lewis's history would be this year if instead of giving boring interviews, Lewis was saying stuff like "Felipe Massa, what are you going to do when TEAM VODAFONE MCLAREN MERCEDES runs wild on YOU?!"
And instead of having driver announcements like Kimi's be just an update on the Lotus Renault website at stupid o'clock in the morning they could have had a skit where Kimi Raikkonen is on stage with Sir Frank Williams about to sign the contract with Williams, but then he hits Sir Frank with a steel chair and brings out Eric Boullier and they shake hands and he signs a contract with Lotus. Everyone will be all like "OMG who is Sir Frank going to bring in to deal with Kimi", which would lead to them doing a storyline where Pastor Maldanado tries to ruin Kimi's season.

I think it would be incredible. Drivers could have their own theme music instead of just having to listen to the German national anthem every time Vettel wins a Grand Prix we could hear Ke$ha's 'We R Who We R'.

....I was all prepared with my "uh, no?" reply but I gotta admit, you present a compelling case.

I used to be sure WWE was the antithesis of cerebral F1 but this has almost convinced me otherwise
The idea of Whitmarsh leaping from the top turn buckle onto Ecclestone seems hilarious. Oh wait, whats this? <Theme tune to godfather comes on over the PA> OMG it can't be, fresh from the FOTA meeting to Bernie's rescue, here comes Luca 'superstar jimmy snooker' di Montezemolo running down the aisle, red cape flapping, up through the ropes and all over Martin like a bad suit. Couple of clothelines later and Bernie and Luca take the intercontinental belt.

Sutil: Brock Lesnar
Rosberg: Dolph Ziggler
Di Resta: Drew Mcintyre
Narain Karthikeyan - Jinder Mahal

Instead of lights, races would start with a bell. But not always. Sometimes they'd start after a lengthy diatribe by one or two of the drivers, or as the cars emerge from the garages, or after a demolition derby on the grid. The possibilities are endless. And don't even get me started on how the races might end.

Maybe make the group at RBR be the Shield.
Montoya would be The Big Show.
Newey is Bobby "the Brain" Heenan.
Bernie is Ted Dibiase, the Million Dollar Man.
Schumi would have to be Jerry "the King" Lawler.
The possibilities are endless.

Nah Schumi has to be Cena is anything. Handsome, nice, kind guy in all respects, but people hate him because he wins ALL THE DAMN TIME.Schumi has to be the Rock. Kicks ass, one of the greatest back in the day, then comes back for three years a shadow of his former self.

Maybe we should get a kickstarter going.
Having JR do the commentary would be awesome. "My GAWWWD King, looks like Lewis is going for the inside!"

Posted this in the Dream Commentary thread a while ago, it's a shame we'll never hear JR do this .Maybe we should get a kickstarter going.

Not bothered about the presenters or pitlane reporters, but a bit like Murray Walker commentating on snooker I'd love to see Jim Ross of WWE fame give F1 a go.
"LOOK OUT!!! OH MY GAWWWD! HOW DO YOU LEARN TO FLY A RACING CAR?!? . . . You don't."
"Grosjean? What's he . . .? DON'T DO IT GROSJEAN! GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY! GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY! HE'S BROKEN IN HALF!!!"

today's quali was a royal rumble and winner goes to the wrestle mania....team RBR threw out Mark Webber out of the ring...
or
Imagine, a tag team championship match between Vettel & Webber vs Alonso & Massa with domenicalli and horner standing at the ring side...
As webber was fighting with Massa, Vettel entered the ring without a tag and slams webber and webber shout 'MULTI 21...seb..MULTI 21'....
a similar situation....Legacy backstabs Orton
