wwe WWE Smackdown Over Sommelier Smackdown? wine musingsHand to God, the Wine Witch is not making this one up.  Vince McMahon who is the owner of the WWE believe he owns the rights to the term “Smackdown”.  It seems that the Philadelphia School of  Wine had the temerity to host an event titled “Sommelier Smackdown”.  Mr McMahon is taking them to court to cease and desist.

Does he actually think the reputation or brand of the WWE will be hurt by being associated with sommeliers or wine?  Could he possibly believe that anyone attending  the Sommelier Smackdown would think it was being sponsored by the WWE?  Talk about an abuse of the judicial system.

Suzie, the Wine Witch considers herself an enthusiastic amateur in the world of wine. She contends that nobody is born with a silver palate. In the beginning Suzie and her husband saved Lancer's Rose for a special night wine. She learned about wine by drinking it and making good friends with her local wine merchant. Suzie's wine adventure is guided by the following principles: * Life is too short to drink bad wine * You do not have to spend more than $15 for good wine * There are no rules - drink what you want when you want * Wine is to be enjoyed and not hoarded * Wine tastes better when shared with special peopleFull Profile
