This week’s newly-posted retro issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter is political in nature…in that it featured 2008 U.S. presidential candidates appearing on WWE Raw followed by an in-ring skit with parodies of those characters including Barack Obama (seen above).
Dave Meltzer covered that in addition to Georges St. Pierre regaining the welterweight title from Matt Serra in front of a raucous Montreal crowd at UFC 83.

This was the issue that also covered Michael Hayes being suspended due to a backstage incident with Mark Henry, William Regal winning the King of the Ring tournament, and more.
