Who is Shawn Michaels?
Asked by Wiki User
Shawn Michaels is retired professional wrestler who worked for the WWE for over 20 years primarily on its RAW Brand.
He initially retired in 1998 because he herniated 2 discs in his spinal chord and crushed one completely in a casket match vs. The Undertaker, who ironically is the one who retired Shawn at Wrestlemania 26.
Many, including myself, regard him as the greatest wrestler of all time.
Why was rock n roll controversial?
Asked by Wiki User
Rock 'n' Roll music was controversial in its early form because of its new fresh sound. Some people thought that lyrics in the songs were inappropriate and had sexual themes. Most of that however wasn't true. Furthermore, the majority of the people that were offended by this new style of music were an older audience.
Another answer:Rock & Roll started as a spinoff of R&B (rhythm and blues). R&B originated as a popular style within the black community, but soon started gaining crossover sales among white young people. The country was still strongly segregated, however, so some enterprising music producers, particularly in the south, started making "covers" of R&B songs using white artists (Jerry Lee Lewis and Bill Haley, for example). In particular, they removed some of the more risqué lyrics to make the songs more acceptable to white audiences.However, many conservative parents and religious leaders were convinced that re-packaging R&B as "Rock & Roll" to sell it to white teenagers was worse than leaving it in the black community. They felt that R&B reflected and promoted the loose morality of the underclass. They insisted that the rolling rhythm of swing eighth notes behind a strong 4/4 backbeat was just as sexually-charged as the suggestive lyrics. More than anything else, the idea of cultural crossover in dance music--black and white young people listening to the same kind of music--gave rise to fears of miscegenation. None of this was a new argument; exactly the same reaction had occurred in the Jazz Age when young people from both sides of the tracks began dancing to Jazz and Swing in the 1920s and '30s.

In the way of actual paperwork, none apart from the marriage license. The UK citizen comes in on a visa waiver and you can get married in the US. For the US citizen to get to the UK, that is where the paperwork comes in. You both need to go to the UK embassy in the US and apply for a marriage visa for the US citizen to come into the UK. The US spouse will then be able to work straight away when you get to the UK also based on that visa.
