WWE used an image of the Nazi concentration camp where 1.1 million people were killed in a promotional video for WrestleMania.
World Wrestling Entertainment apologized on Friday after using footage of Auschwitz in a WrestleMania promotion.
The footage of Auschwitz, the largest of the German Nazi concentration centers where around 1.1 million people were killed, was used in a video promoting a match between Dominik Mysterio and his father Rey Mysterio during Saturday's WrestleMania Kickoff show. An image of the concentration camp was shown after Dominik discussed his character's criminal background, sayingThe fact that Auschwitz image was used to promote a WWE match is hard to call "an editing mistake". Exploiting the site that became a symbol of enormous human tragedy is shameless and insults the memory of all victims of Auschwitz.
