So the Mountie wins this too right?
ReplyDeleteOh, Scotty...
ReplyDeleteSo, I just finished my first week at my new job, and holy hell, the combination of the schedule and the subway not working all that quickly after midnight may in fact be killing me. In fact, why am I even awake right now?
ReplyDeleteOh right, time to take part in the Daily Update thread and watch Raw on Hulu.
Watching the Neville-Rollins match, all I could think was that Neville bouncing around like a Mexican Jumping Bean after some shots of tequila in Tiajuana, Jesse Ventura would have pointed out that he was expending a lot of energy that wasn't focused on his opponent, which could come back to haunt him. And then, when Rollins won, Ventura would have said I told you so.
I miss late 1980s A-list WWF commentary.
Observation/prediction: Cody Rhodes will NOT win another WWE title playing this Stardust goofball character. If he claims he's from the Fifth Dimension, can we just trick him into saying "Tsudrats" and he'll just disappear for 90 days?
ReplyDeleteOr could he at least do a bitchin' cover of "The Age of Aquarius?"
ReplyDeleteHave Hornswoggle be his Mr. Mxyzptlk and have the two of them be shit disturbers except for repeatedly being tricked into saying their names backwards. I'd watch that
ReplyDeleteI doubt he has a good singing voice with that lisp.
ReplyDelete"Thith ith the dawning of the age of Aquariuth..."
ReplyDeleteGiven how big of a nerd Cody seems to be, I bet that's how they end the Stardust character, with him saying his name backwards and then the following week he's Cody again.
ReplyDeleteSo Cena has incorporated the Asai Stunner into his regular moveset? I can't decide if the move is awesome or ruining my suspension of disbelief...
ReplyDeleteSo all the stupid "They didn't know the finish of Mania until two-third through the show!" remarks were bullshit, as most people with a brain suspected.
ReplyDeleteThey may not have told Rollins until an hour or so before, but that didn't mean that Vince hadn't made those plans yet.
According to my own insider sources WWE officials decided to put the belt on Rollins on Tuesday evening at around 19:43PM, but no one else found out until Thursday at 10:37AM. The thought that pointless news like that is probably made up is just so funny
ReplyDeleteI would hope they started making those WM plans the day after the Rumble.
ReplyDeleteWhat you said is made up, or the story above about Wednesday?
ReplyDeleteMine is absolutely true
ReplyDeleteWhat's made up about the Wednesday story?
ReplyDeleteVince McMahon, Day Before the Rumble: "I am really excited to kick off the Roman Empire tomorrow night!"
ReplyDeleteVince McMahon, 15 Minutes After the Rumble: "Fuck..."
Ended up going to Raw last night. It was soooo, sooooo bad. I was in the nosebleeds too, surrounded by... well we'll be kind and call them mentally challenged folk. A fight almost broke out over a guy saying Orton sucks, and the woman in front of me held up a sign all night long (that sign explaining that her son's birthday is next month, but tickets to Raw were his present, so they were celebrating his birthday yesterday instead of on his actual birthday. She also told this story to anyone who would listen), and refused to pull up her too-tight pants the entire evening, thus giving everyone a full view of her ass all evening. Combined with having to watch 2 Orton matches, 2 Ryback matches and 2 Reigns matches (one against Big Show!), I feel ill today.
ReplyDeleteNot that I'm complaining, but where has Hornswoggle been? They didn't even have him on TV to promote the Leprechaun movie he was in.
ReplyDeleteReading the recap of Cena's interview and them now being TV-PG......
ReplyDeleteEven though WWE is booked towards kids apparently let's have bizarre insider shoot comments at random times and include corporate mumbo jumbo.
I'd personally put my money on "we'll never know for sure when they finalized the plan to have a Rollins go over."
ReplyDeleteIt could be true it's just reading so many different reports on when decisions are made (utlimately useless info at the end of the day) gets ridiculous at some point
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure I'll never go to a Raw again. House shows or PPVs, sure. But sitting through a Raw in person just seems miserable. I can't even sit through one on tv.
ReplyDelete"Hit the duck! We love you Scott Steiner!"
ReplyDeleteIt had to have been at some point during the show, because Reigns had those puffy "I've been crying" eyes during his entrance
ReplyDeleteDifferent audiences. A kid shouldn't be up watching a Cena interview at 11:30 PM on a Monday night.
ReplyDeleteDoes the star of a TV kid show/movie have to be squeaky clean if he/she appears on a late night TV show?
Try September, which is what makes Vince changing his mind even funnier.
ReplyDeleteThe funny thing is that the Diana angle actually did really good ratings, so there was at least SOME intrigue over the angle. But as noted, it never went anywhere and never paid off.
ReplyDeletehttp://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/91Txy0rV%2BVL._SX355_.jpg
ReplyDeleteAt least it was amicable. Maybe not religiously the best scenario but I see nothing wrong with that situation... I wonder if the Big Bad Booty Daddy rechristened her the Booty Babe.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff, Bayless.
ReplyDeleteI have an idea. Hoss reads the classics. Hoss reads portions of classic literature to educate the masses, but loses his shit and trashes the book and set when something he reads offends his sensibilities.
For example, Romeo & Juliet. Hoss could lose his mind because the fool capped himself over some trim instead of just having some ice cream and getting over it.
Well, in character I'm always gonna have the false sense of confidence in beating you.
ReplyDeleteI know. I was speaking in character.
ReplyDeleteWhar are you doing on the bus??
ReplyDeleteMother punished me for talking to a girl yesterday. She was right to do it.
But the NWA new version of MX turned out pretty well...
ReplyDeleteVader vs. Fatu? Oh boy.
ReplyDeleteGoldust beats Savio - YAWN
Savio Vega, Fatu. Jake Roberts, The Godwinns, and Aldo Montoya all worthless.
ReplyDeleteAs a youngster, I always got Aldo Montoya and Alex "The Pug" Porteau confused with one another when I'd see their names in magazines.
ReplyDeleteFIVE-STAR reference.
ReplyDeleteFoley's book he said during a meeting with Vince about the character he suggested the calming music after his match and Vince just sort of nodded and it was never mentioned to him again until after his first match with Holly and he heard the piano music start up
ReplyDeleteArrive. Don't Do The Job. Leave.
ReplyDeleteThat's sorta my M.O. around here.
The streak will continue next week when You avoid the job again
