Ventura/WWE Storyline Plans?, Cade's Injury, Torrie, WWE DVD Sales

? According to a report by The Figure Four Weekly Newsletter, Jesse Ventura stated recently on Howard Stern that he approached Vince McMahon with an angle for WrestleMania last May or June. According to Ventura, the angle was that WWE would create their own political party with Vince as the candidate and they would do a drive to get all the signatures they needed to get him on the ballot. In the end, they would then reveal that the whole Vince McMahon as the "candidate" deal would just be a storyline and that Ventura would be the one running for President. Ventura said he met with Vince once about the idea and Vince never called him back. On a side note, Ventura was in attendance at UFC 87 last night in Minneapolis, MN. He was shown during the PPV broadcast during the Brock Lesnar vs. Heath Herring fight.
