EdgeWWE had been promoting Stacy Keibler's television appearances on "Dancing with the Stars" since week one, however, they didn't promote Stacy or the show this week on WWE.com. Or on Raw for that matter earlier this week. Apparently, WWE pulled all pictures and videos of Stacy on "Dancing with the Stars" from her superstar section. There had been picture and video galleries in her section, but the links were removed as early as Wednesday. Also, there is not a single mention of her appearances on "Dancing with the Stars" to be found anywhere on the company website.
Every single Thursday night, WWE.com would leave a direct link that goes to ABC.com's "Dancing with the Stars" voting page. They'd leave the link up overnight and into Friday morning. Officials behind the show more than likely asked WWE to stop directly linking WWE fans to the "Dancing with the Stars" voting page. Show officials probably thought that WWE's motive would give Stacy an unfair advantage over the other contestants as they didn't have a mega-popular website to promote their appearances or to help tally up votes like Stacy did.
According to Alexa.com, WWE.com is the 482th most popular website on the web. Also, "WWE" was the fourth most searched subject on Lycos.com last week.

LMFAO, haha this is so stupid. WWE should have the right to advertise Stacy and letting fans across the world who don't get to see the show (e.g. me) how Stacy got on in the last round, this is just paranoia (sp?) by Dancing with the Stars towards WWE

Im not trying to go off topic, but i bet the most searched one was pornography, anyway back on topic... That is complete BS, WWE should have the right to use Stacy in any way of advertising that is sutible as long as she is still under a contract with WWE, DWTS is just jealous.
