Nancy Grace being blackballed by WWE over Ultimate Warrior coverage
TV host Nancy Grace is being blackballed by the WWE over the way she covered The Ultimate Warrior’s death, according to a report.
TMZ says past and present WWE wrestlers are being warned not to appear on Grace’s HLN show after she had Diamond Dallas Page on her program last week and strongly insinuated Warrior’s death was rooted in steroid and drug abuse.
We reported on Grace’s coverage of Warrior’s death and pointed out that she had a scroll of wrestlers who had died young and included Owen Hart on the list, even though Hart’s death was a total fluke due to a complete malfunction during an event rather than steroids or drugs.
Grace’s coverage was enough to upset the company to the point that they don’t want anyone appearing on her program in the future.
The way the program covered the death was simply irresponsible and unprofessional.
