Maybe I was just expecting more. You know what stellar work Money in the Back, SummerSlam and Survivor Series where. Royal Rumble should have been more of the same…Instead it was total shit. Some build up in certain areas, but for most of the PPV it had an Inception type sleep.

World Heavyweight Championship Triple Threat Steel Cage Match Daniel Bryan vs Big Show & Mark Henry: First match of the night is the Triple Threat Steel Cage Match for the World Heavyweight Championship. Daniel Bryan tried to escape the cage over the top, but Big Show gets a hold of Bryan, holding the entire weight of Bryan with one arm. Big Show finally looses his grip and D-Bryan drops to the floor to retain the World Heavyweight Championship.

Bryan is shaping up to be a great heel. I hope his title reign carries into well WrestleMania, so far the way he has been booked and they way he reacts after his “victories” is great. Plus Daniel’s heel beard is boss.

8-Diva Tag Match Beth Phoenix, Natalya, & The Bella Twins vs Kelly Kelly, Eve, Alicia Fox, & Tamina: Diva’s match yeah we know how that goes it ends with Beth Phoenix hitting Kelly Kelly with the Glam Slam for the three. My HDTV had Beth Phoenix, Natalya and The Bella Twins boobies on my screen 8 sets of boobies #AWESOME.

John Cena vs Kane: I have been telling all who read this that WWE is toying with us about Cena going heel which isn’t going to happen. We all know he is going to be booo’d like a son bitch at WrestleMania but isn’t that expected? So what feels like years has only been a few weeks of Kane, trying to get John Cena to “embrace the hate”. The only thing John Cena embraced was a nice safe match.

Kane and John Cena fought outside the ring, it was the typical good guy makes a comeback against the “stronger villain” the match ended in a double count-out. After the match, Kane and Cena brawl to the backstage area where Cena throws Kane into a group of trash cans. Kane is then able to find a steel chair and hits Cena on the back. Kane then notices Zack Ryder personal dressing room, Kane kicks in the door and starts to attack a defenseless Zack Ryder. Kane uses his gloved hand and in seconds Ryder is unconscious.

Kane then wheels Ryder to ringside and delivers Tombstone Piledriver to Ryder. Hot Eve Torres watches in horror, she’s real hot when she cries. Super Cena makes his way to the ring, but is greeted with a chokeslam.

Brodus Clay vs Drew McIntyre: Drew McIntyre had a match….I laughed too. McIntyre was given another chance at the Royal Rumble. If McIntyre defeated The Funkasaurus Brodus Clay. He was Rumble bound. We all knew how this was going to end…SQUASH MATCH!!!! Anyone else catch The Funkasaurus having a difficult time snapping off his Kidd Rock looking outfit?

WWE Championship CM Punk vs Dolph Ziggler (Special Referee – John Laurinaitis): One major flaw I saw in last Sunday, was the ending of Dolph Ziggler /CM Punk feud. I like that WWE is not passing the championship around like a cheap whore. But the era of long reigns mean nothing. The multiple times a wrestler holds the title means more. CM Punk won the WWE Title in November at Survivor Series. So his reign as been over 80 days. Punk’s popularity is red hot so Punk winning is business as usual.

Now it seems like its on to the next one… I still believe Punk/Ziggler could be huge feud. Both are tremendous talents and have never had a dull match. The match it self was great 4 GTS’ with Ziggler countering one. Punk playing the hero who has to be 12 steps ahead of a boss who is out to get him, while Laurinaitis played mind games and had a referee officiate the entire match.

I wish the obvious had happened with Laurinaitis screwing Punk out of the WWE title. WWE is trying to slowly build Ace/Punk to be this era’s Austin /McMahon. It doesn’t have the same impact but it does work. Since the Elimination Chamber is later this month. We could have saw some bitch-assness by Johnny Ace making Punk angry.

30-Man Royal Rumble Match: The Royal Rumble match should not have had Michael Cole, Jinder Mahal, Jey Uso, Epico, Hunico, Old ass Hacksaw and Mick Foley. Santino and Foley had a face-off with Socko and the Cobra sock, that might have gotten the biggest pop of the night. The Miz and Cody Rhodes looked like stars. Ricardo Rodriquez might have had entrance of the night.

When Miz tried to eliminate Kofi Kingston, and Kofi does a handstand, walking on his hands to avoid elimination I marked out, one of the most impressive things I have ever seen. Kofi might have took twenty or thirty steps before making it to the steel steeps.

Kharma returns, she held her own with Dolph Ziggler before getting eliminated. Road Dogg Jesse James does like six moves and the crowd chats “YOU STILL GOT IT”, I’m not sold on that but it was fun to watch. The there are some elimination we dont care about, blah blah Orton comes out home town hero pop. The Big Show enters the rumble blah blah.

Fast forward to the final four which is Sheamus, Big Show, Randy Orton, and Chris Jericho. Orton eliminates Big Show, Jericho gets rid Orton. Finally it comes down to Jericho and Sheamus. We get a great back and fourth from Jericho who looks like he hasn’t lost a step. Finally Seamus Brogue Kick’s Jericho off of the ring apron with the to win the 2012 Royal Rumble.

The Rumble match it self was lackluster only to be saved by Chris Jericho and Sheamus both really made the ending a great watch. I’m not mad that Sheamus won the match, Jericho was my pick. What can I say I’m predictable.

As I was eating my Wheaties, the thought of hey whats Diamond Dallas Page doing lately. With spoonfuls of the breakfast of champions being chewed I googled DDP. Apparently the former pro wrestler has become a fitness guru.

While pro wrestling is not considered a sport, what pro wrestlers do is athletic and many aches and pains are REAL. What started out as Diamond Dallas Page’s reluctant use of yoga to help him recover from debilitating injuries has evolved into a hybrid yoga developed by Page, that “Ain’t Your Mama’s Yoga!!”. DDPYoga was created while Dallas was recovering from ruptures to his L4/L5 discs.

While watching his wife’s yoga routine the former 3 time WCW World Heavy Weight Champion realized, the benefits of yoga when he regained his flexibility and strength that were hindered by his ruptured disks. DDP developed a book which later turned into a series of workout videos entitled DDPYoga.

DDPYoga targets people who wouldn’t otherwise do yoga. DDPYoga is a combination of intense zero impact workout that combines yoga, rehabilitation moves, dynamic resistance, and breathing technique. DDP says “The workout jacks up your heart rate, helps you lose weight, gain flexibility, get your body back and own your life”

I think why DDPYoga is so successful is Dallas’ personality, he genuinely wants to see people succeed. Working out is a labor of love it takes determination and some sacrifice. Six-time WWE champion, Chris Jericho swears by DDPYoga. Here is a great 15 minute clip of DDP and Y2J doing some DDPYoga, eating gluten free waffles and telling Eddie Guerrero stories.

There are hundreds of testimonials via DDPYoga‘s twitter page here are two that caught my attention.

Contrary to what has been previously reported, it appears that and are the two big matches currently being discussed. , fans have been expecting the tentative plan and while those plans have not been scrapped by any means, officials have discussed a creative shake-up.

Because of the IWC (Internet Wrestling Community) and its conspiracies and assumptions, rumors are circulating that we might see Triple H vs. CM Punk instead Chris Jericho vs. CM Punk at Mania. While is isn’t confirmed or denied the possible match might be scrapped. WWE is hip to the Internet game and as we know the WWE likes to shake shit up. So Chris Jericho vs The Undertaker might be a go.

If this does happen The Undertaker vs. Chris Jericho wouldn’t be a bad watch. Having Taker do a fresh WrestleMania match is way better than seeing the repeats like the last 3 WrestleMania’s.

Ok lets get in to The Good, The Bad and the Ugly of Monday Night RAW.

THE GOOD:

Chris Jerich Speaks

Jerry Lawler says that Chris Jericho has officially been entered into the Royal Rumble. Michael Cole says it’s been four years since the WWE Universe has seen the Highlight Reel. Ok at first I wasn’t into this Jericho return but now I’m all in. The fact that Y2J brings out a Tshirt gun is pure brilliance, the dude never fires a single shirt.

Chris Jericho continues to pander the crowd. After several false attempt to speak Jericho tells the crowd shhhhhh then he speaks. HUGE CROWD POP. “This Sunday at the Royal Rumble, it’s going to be the end of the world as you know it.”

Jericho is most likely the odds on favorite to win the Rumble. If Jericho comes in at #30 its a wrap. I would like Y2J win the Royal Rumble by doing nothing. I hope this trend of nothing continues its building heat.

CM Punk GTS’ John Laurinaitis

Anyone else shocked Otunga has a job? Otunga takes the mic to read a fax from the WWE board of directors. The board is angry that Laurinaitis shows favoritism towards Ziggler. The other Mr. Hudson when on to say that next week Laurinaitis will have a job evaluation by Triple H. HMMM sounds all too familiar.

Laurinaitis says the fax is a wake-up call and would like to apologize to Punk. He says that Mick Foley is now in the Royal Rumble…Do you care? I don’t. Laurinaitis has Otunga attack Punk, Punk fights back locks in the Anaconda Vice.

Laurinaitis wants to shake Punks hand. Punk shakes his hand, picks Laurinaitis up, and hits the GTS! Not as impactful as when Stone Cold stunned Vince but Huge pop from the crowd. Johnny Ace’s face when he gets lifted for the GTS is freakin Hilarious. Dolph Ziggler jumps Punk from behind and lays him out. He stands over him smiling as Raw goes off the air. I like that Ziggs goes over before a pay-per-view.

Next week’s Raw officially starts the road to Wrestlemania, AKA RAW’s most compelling TV of the year. Could this be final return of The Undertaker? Chris Jericho and CM Punk would have an amazing match. Plus there’s The Rock vs. John Cena.

Brodus Clay’s Funk

I’m not gonna lie, I’m a total mark for “The Funkasaurus” this gimmick is so shitty but the theme song is so goddamn addicting to listen too. I really think Naomi and Cameron aka The Funkettes are super hot. Vince don’t hire uggo’s. Anyone else notice Brodus had a difficult time snapping off his pants? O Yeah Heath Slater was in this as well ZZZZzzzzzzzzz

THE BAD:

Jinder Mahal

Can we stop seeing Sheamus vs Jinder Mahal. This has been 4 or 5 weeks of the same match? Mahal is becoming the new John Morrison the jobber of jobbers, least J Mo could take a bump.

R-Truth vs. The Miz – Loser enters Royal Rumble Match at No. 1

I think this feud has been great, but don’t Nitro us WWE. I would have liked to see Truth vs Miz at the Rumble. I want to see if these two can really build heat, throwing fist at each other during promos was fine. The pay build up for their match at Rumble would have held a lot of interest.

Zack Ryder vs. Kane Falls Count Anywhere

Call this match ALL KANE EVERYTHING!!!! Before I even review this match Michael COle and King use their best somber voices. Kane slams, punches and puts Ryder through the stage. Kane turns his sights on Eve but when he sees John Cena at the entrance and leaves through the crowd. Then Eve watches WOO WOO WOO placed onto a gurney. Cena tells him to hang in there but Eve tells him that he has done enough as the ambulance leaves.

THE IDK WHAT TO THINK:

The acting of Hot Eve Torres and John Cena during this sequences of events makes Russell brand look like an Oscar winner

Its reported that Ryder will be getting his own TV on WWE’s network so expect him to be out for a few weeks.

Did Monday Night RAW foreshadow the two main events at Mania? It sure seems like Triple H might fuck shit up for Punk and his WWE title. I think WWE has done enough Rumble return victories, I say Jericho wins the Rumble. Tweet me your prediction.

Could we be seeing Cena embracing his thuganomics like years prior? I bet Cena beasts on Kane during the Rumble eliminating himself and Kane. This will carry Cena all the way to Elimination Chamber. This has been a nice safe program so he’s injury free for Dwayne.

Finally #CENAANGRYFACE should be trending….

The cap features a Grey crown with Navy bill. The main logo is a retro-style King of the Ring from the early 90s. This is available now at WWESHOP.COM

Fact..The King of the Ring tournament had its first pay-per-view event in 1993, but the original King of the Ring tournament was held in 1985. Don Muraco was the first King of the Ring in 1985.

Via Ohsnapbacks

This is going to be what I liked and disliked about the program. Raw and Smackdown air for several hours on Universal HD for time warner cable on Saturday nights, I get to view both programs twice and it really cement what I like or didn’t. I have the flu so bare with me if my enthusiasm is non existent. My brain feels like its trapped under Rick Ross’s underboob. Insane pressure.

THE GOOD:

WWE Tag Team Champion Kofi Kingston vs. World Champion Daniel Bryan

Bryan came out, very confident pointing at the Championship and going “I’m the Champion!!!!”. Bryan caught Kofi with the LeBell Lock in a very nice spot where Kofi came off the top rope with a reverse cross body.

Bryan did an over the top celebration after the match, standing on the barrier and on the announce table kept going “YES!!!!”. Bryan winning clean against Kofi this week and Cody last week establishes the heel “IM THE CHAMP AND IM GREAT” character. Bryan is doing a great job of being the cocky. The fact the announce team is treating Danielson like he got lucky really builds the to the heat.

R-Truth/ Ricardo Rodriguez

Im a huge fan of Ricardo Rodriguez he works hard, takes some crazy bumps and isn’t on the active roster. Back stage Miz approaches Ricardo and tells him that he better call out R-Truth or he will have him join Alberto Del Rio on the injured list.

In the ring Rodriguez makes tries to man up but Truth made a little cockroach reference and asked if Ricardo would sing him and Little Jimmy “La Cuca Rocha”. This is so bad, that it was amazing. A jerk reaction of knocking the microphone out of Truths hand causes Ricardo to receive Truth finisher. The Miz jumps from the crowd and attacks Truth. Truth fought back and chased Miz through the crowd.

CM Punk vs. Jack Swagger

Before the start of the match, Laurinaitis came out and reminded the crowd that he’s the special referee for Punk’s match with Dolph Ziggler at the Royal Rumble. Why this is amazing? two reasons. The first if Ziggler wins with the help of Johnny Ace it builds more heat to an already bad ass heel. Two seeing CM Punk go ape shit on Johnny Ace and winning back the title at the next PPV is a compelling watch.

Laurinaitis went on to say to show he’s fair, Ziggler will face John Cena tonight and if Punk beats Swagger, then Swagger and Vickie Guerrero will be banned from ringside at the Rumble. Punk won the match anyway, so Ziggler and Vickie are banned from ringside at the Rumble.

By far the best match I have ever seen Jack Swagger have. The back and fourth was great
we got a Randy Savage top rope elbow life is pretty sweet at this moment.

Chris Jericho

Last week I wrote my thoughts on the return of Y2J. This week Jericho continues to say nothing. Jericho grabs the microphone like he is going to speak but puts the microphone down and walks out of the ring crying.

Could Y2J be creating the greatest heel character of all time? Tweet me @EmilioSparks I want to hear your thoughts.

THE BAD:

Kane stalking Zack Ryder

I get it Ryder is now John Cena’s on screen Brutus Beefcake. But do we need several segments of Ryder on RAW?

Part of the appeal of Ryder was that he got over in other avenues outside of a WWE Push. Winning the U.S. Title…Great, his pursuit of Eve Torres love it. I think we would all enjoy to see jaded romantic miss adventures. Let his comedic side show, but too involved him with this Kane/Cena program is where I say enough Zack Ryder. Too much of anything is a bad thing.

Sheamus & Santino vs. Wade Barrett & Jinder Mahal

Ive seen enough of Jinder Mahal to last a life time. In my fluish state is crawled to the bathroom for this entire match. The nothing match went 3 minutes, and ended with Sheamus planting Mahal with the Brogue Kick, and then let Santino take the pinfall. I like to think of this match as hey lets talk about the Royal Rumble.

Edge being inducted to WWE’s Hall Of Fame

The headliner this year, being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame on March 31 2012…is Edge. Wow how bad does this suck? Edge is 37 years old and wrestled active last year. Edge never did anything so amazing that warrants HOF status. Ok he held a shit load of world championships and brought the concept of Table, Ladders and Chairs to where it is now, but name me a 5 star match edge had? There are far more deserving to be inducted into the Hall of Famers. Couch Couch Macho Man Randy Savage.

Brodus Clay Re-debutes

What the fuck is this cowboy bullshit. After weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks of hype promo packages for Brodus Clay, we get The “Funkasaurus”. Yes all I could do was laugh when I heard them say he was build from “the planet funk”. He has dancing girls. Clay dressed up like a fat Kid Rock. Who decided hey lets dust off the Flash Funk character again, that failed rather nicely lets have it fail again.

What really sucks is Curt Hawkins had to be apart of this. Hawkins is a great talent who is going no where. Let Hawnkins cook. Clay squashed Hawkins in a minute and danced with the Funkettes.

THE IDK WHAT TO THINK:

The ending of RAW

While the match it self between John Cena and Dolph Ziggler was great the events after the match make this my IDK. Ziggler does sit ups on top of Cena. FUCKEN GENIUS SPOT!!!! As Super Cena goes for the 5 Knuckle Shuffle we see video of Kane attacking Ryder, Kane choke slams Ryder off of a ledge to the ground.

Cena runs to the parking lot but is attacked by Kane. We see Ryder laying on the ground Kane a face claw to put Cena to sleep knock. This whole storyline has the feeling of a b-horrior movie vibe, like House Of Wax starring Paris Hilton.

The whole ending killed what I thought was a great RAW. This embrace the hate storyline needs to be secondary. No hate will be embraced as Post Fruity Pebbles and John Cena are teaming up for a new partnership, which includes a collectable cereal box in support of the ‘be a STAR’ anti-bullying message.

Rick Ross was at Sunday night’s TNA Genesis pay-per-view. The Bawse was shown on camera before the start of the 4-Way Elimination match for the X-Division Title Kid Kash vs. Zema Ion vs. Jesse Sorrensen vs. Austin Aries.

Ricky Rozay taunted X-Division wrestler Zema Ion. I can see Ross playing a Jimmy Hart type heel. The Mouth of the South of Miami he can do his trademarked Rick Ross Grunt before he starts his promos.

When asked by a fan why Warrior doesn’t dye his hair and have another run in WWE like Kevin Nash, Warrior replied “I’m not a dickhead who thrives on stealing the limelight from young guys.”

Kevin Nash continued his 140 character belittlement. Nash challenged Warrior to a MMA style fight the day before WrestleMania.

Not to be out done by Kevin Nash, Warrior responded via his Youtube page.

Whether or not or both Nash and Warrior have buried, destroyed or held down other wrestlers is up for debate. I do remember Warrior no-selling the pedigree at WrestleMania 12 but the Warrior didnt have feuds with the Champion when he returned in 1996.

I think rumors of that are over blown by the few people effected by Nash. I do think Kevin Nash was used wrong when he came back and cost CM Punk his first WWE championship. Punk and Nash’s cadences are vastly different. Nash is too big and is used to WWF style promos and WWF bodies. Somebody should have knew it would fail like it did. from jump make Nash feud with Cena…make Nash punks bodyguard or something but don’t put somebody too big and too old school with someone like punk who’s smaller and new school. It would have made a lot more sense than Nash coming back to make sure the company keeps the belt in house because his pal is in office.

If you wanna talk the name test like who would recognize the name more its Warrior. But it was a flash 3 years and gone. If Warrior came back, the TV would be white hot for a month, until you ask him to wrestle or the comeback shock wears off.

Nash would give you more over a longer stretch like he can be in more programs, help backstage stuff like that, Warrior you get a week buildup, the hot comeback, 2 weeks to see what he actually does and the last week of the late bloomers and people to jump off the wagon.

At the end of the day this is about one guy who doesn’t know when to retire and the other who never really liked the wrestling business even when he was in wrestling. Warrior is money hungry and Nash can blow out his quads sitting on a toilet squeezing out a turd.

If you thought Anyone but Chris Jericho would return yesterday ex this tab out now. Jericho saying the mystery man was Brock was a red herring. With all these cryptic videos the IWC (Internet Wrestling Community) knew these promos were Jericho related.

I can not tell a lie, I’m kinda bored with Jericho’s come backs. Reinvention is always a good thing. Jericho’s character’s have never stale thats for sure, I think thats why were all a bit like what the fuck was that on Monday Night Raw.

We’re all use to Jericho’s grand return which leads to the massive crowd pop, wordie promo and crowd change. Yet this time it was a bit different. Jericho was slapping fives and pandering the crowd. He went into the ring grabbed the mic said nothing and left. At first I quite upset I thought the celebration was going on to long, then I re watch his return upon second viewing, I realized the sarcasm of all.

Jericho was building heat. Clearly Jericho will be a heel and this particular return was mocking the WWE “universe” for its embrace of CM Punk. Jericho’s new character seems like a self centered, Hollywood diva. He’s playing a different heel maybe the egomaniac cant have someone else calling them selves “best in the world”.

Many fans on Twitter had a mix reaction for Jericho’s return. Some thought It was brilliant and others thought total let-down. It was neither. By saying nothing he did what he had to do create heat.

The crowd pop’d when he first came out and boo’d when he exited the arena. There’s going to be a steady build to this in weeks to come. All roads to Punk/Jericho at WrestleMania. I predict Jericho will win the rumble and then choose to face CM Punk at WrestleMania for the WWE Championship.

The one issue I had with his return was the promos had nothing in common with the actual return. What did the girl in the promos have to do with his return? I need to know the “she that holds the mystery of your rebirth” bullshit. Maybe the mysterious girl is a metaphor for CM Punk? Hopefully this isn’t a work and were lead down the Positively Page route.

The Briscoe’s might be right about the WWE but the WWE from 2 years ago is different from how it is now. I really want WWE to have a serious tag division. Some say tags are dead and probably done for the forseeable future. I like to believe the landscape might be changing, with Punk and Daniel Bryan are world champions.

I still want to know what the true meaning of the “cosmetically pleasing” means WWE hired Brodus Clay..Think about that one.

The Briscoe Brothers keep it hood. This might be the first time I have ever seen a wrestler with mouth full of chew not look country. BTW The Briscoe’s won their 7th ROH World Tag Team Championship last night.

This replica WWE Slammy Award is actual size and molded directly from the actual Slammy. It measures over 14 inches tall and weights an unbelievable 6 1/2 pounds. Comes in a WWE logo black box. If you think $300.000 is a bit much, think again. WWE replica belts start at this price.

Props to Khal

I have a question if you join the Army as a parachutist what do you do for your entire time in the service? Do you go to competitions and show off America’s parachuting skills?

John Cena comes out to start this week’s RAW a split reaction with half boos and half cheers. Cena talks about Roddy Piper and thanks him for what he said last week. He says again that everyone has the right to say whatever they want about him. Blah, Blah, Blah.

Cena switches gears and talks about CM Punk. He wants a title shot. I’m not mad that idea. Cena/Punk 4 or 5 would be a good watch maybe after WM its too soon to repeat angels.

Alberto Del Rio comes out and says the match is his. Cena says “you lost and everyone saw it.” Del Rio says “that didn’t count.” Del Rio shows the clip of his head being bounced off the exposed turnbuckle last week, and says that Punk cheated. Here comes Vickie Guerrero…with Dolph Ziggler.

Dolph deserves a title proper World Title Push. Ziggler asks Cena and Del Rio if they know who has the longest title reign in the company. It’s Ziggler. That is a good point. Ziggler has been United States Champion for a long time. Segment still not over here comes The Miz.

If Ziggler/Punk dont happen I can see Miz/Punk working extremely well. Miz plugs the 3 hour Slammy Award show next week. Miz looks at Del Rio and says his title reign wasn’t one month long. He looks at Ziggler and says he doesn’t need Vickie Guerrero to get him over. If you caught on by now they all want shots at Punk’s WWE title.

Johnny Ace makes his way to the ring and says each guy in the ring will face a Smackdown guy and if they win they are entered into a championship match at the TLC Pay-Per-View

So its Alberto, Miz and Dolph get matches vs Smackdown superstars. If they win they’re in the TLC title match with Punk. Later that night a contract singing will take place. Cena isn’t getting the same treatment and instead will be part of a “social experiment” whatever that is. Miz is in action first against Randy Orton.

This could be the main event for tonights program but its the opening match…Great first match to have on a show. Miz wins by count out when Orton chooses to chase Wade Barrett as oppose to win.. BUT Orton turns to come back and ends up eating a forearm to the back from Barrett.come back and ends up eating a forearm to the back from Barrett.

WWE hypes the Network that will debut next year. You know Im super stoked I already watch hours of Sportscenter so its only fitting I watch hours of WWE programing.

A show called Legend’s House will be the crown jewel. The premises will be WWE legends living under one roof. This has Iron Sheik written all over it.

Laurinaitis tells Ryder that Ziggler has filed a complaint against Ryder’s petition for a US Championship match. Laurinaitis says he agrees with Ziggler. John Cena comes up wearing Zack Ryder sunglasses and wig. Buy the Ryder wig on WWE.COM

I can see myself wear the Ryder Wig. WOO WOO WOO. Laurinaitis says that the social experiment will be Cena vs. Ryder. If Cena wins, he is in the WWE Championship match at TLC. If Ryder wins, he gets a US Title shot at Ziggler.

David Otunga still has a career sorta. He tells Kevin Nash that he will face Triple H at TLC in a ladder match. Nash says he doesn’t do ladder matches. So its a sledgehammer ladder match. Otunga says there will be a sledgehammer hanging above the ring and the winner gets to beat the other guy with it.

Mr Jennifer Hudson tells Nash that he is in action tonight. Michael Cole says it will be the first time in 8 years that Nash has a match on Raw.

Alberto Del Rio vs. Daniel Bryan. This feud could have amazing potential. D-Bryan has the MITB briefcase and ADR wants another shot. See where I am going with this. The match was ridiculously short. Del Rio counters a guillotine choke by tossing him rib first across the top rope.. cross arm breaker.

Theres a Diva’s match but more importantly we get the newest cryptic “It begins” video. The way WWE were pushing these videos with social media was innovative and brilliant. This weeks video has all sorts of confusing shit like a field a ball is rolling across the floor.
a creepy little girl in the middle of a room. The words “look within” appear on the screen. Maybe Jericho? Maybe The Undertaker?

Zack Ryder vs. John Cena. the crowd was very pro Cena. Fun match to watch. Rough Ryder countered to the AA and Cena wins.. Ryder popularity only works in major cities. Zack is pissed because “this was his only shot” Cena is all “give me one second” and leaves. So yeah Cena gives up his spot so that Zack gets another oppertunity so now Ryder has one more match up next if he wins he gets the US title match.

Hopefully it’s Brodius for weeks we seen videos hyping his return. Nope its Mark Henry no Brodius yet again. Henry is still playing the injury. Cena’s out to cheer him. I forgot to mention its a no DQ. So Cena hits the AA and Ryder wins. Ryder is official the number 1 contender to the US title. Ryder just beat the WORLD champion to get a US TITLE SHOT.

Segment of the night goes to Ziggs. In the back Ziggler is angry with Vickie Guerrero. They find out he is facing Sheamus. Jack Swagger says he will be in Dolph’s corner if needed. Ziggler tells him no because he will screw him over. Swagger gets angry and the two argue. Ziggler laughs and says “I’m just playing.” Swagger says “ok so I’ll see you out there then?” with a straight face Ziggler says “no” and walks away. See why Dolph is the truth.

The last time Nash wrestled on RAW was August 18th, 2003. If im not mistaken that was the night Nash tore his quadriceps after being out for months and months. Nash didnt tear anything tonight. nWo music hits and here is Nash with the sledge… Cuzo Drew texted me saying “I freaking love that he uses the nWo theme not gonna lie.” His opposition, you wonder? Santino. Side slam, big boot and the Jackknife. Nash didn’t do much but still looked like shitty. He’s got the sledge now no attack.

Ryder’s out to ruin the only fucking match I wanted to fucking see… distraction leads to the brouge kick. Ziggler loses… fuck this show…. fuck Zack Ryder…

Dolph Ziggler vs. Sheamus- Ziggler show boating is getting funnier and funnier every time he is on TV. Sheamus does what he does best beat opponents up. He sets up for the Celtic Cross but Ziggler rolls down his back. Zack Ryder’s music hits and he runs down the ramp. Ziggler is distracted as Sheamus hits the Brogue Kick for the win.

Zack Ryder sure is being used a lot tonight. He was involved in 3 different matches tonight and had a backstage promo. I’ll never complain about that. Ryder gets in the ring and hits the Rough Ryder on Ziggler. The terrible crowd kinda cheers as loud as they have all night.

It looks like the main event at TLC in Baltimore will be CM Punk vs. The Miz vs. Alberto Del Rio. Can we all agree contract signing segments are terrible?

I really loth them. I have for years. At least Punk is in it, The Miz and Alberto Del Rio are in suits. Thats another thing I never understood why get all fancy to sign a contract?

Anyway John Laurinaitis is in the ring he talks about Brodus Clay debuting soon, he plugs next week’s 3 hour Slammy Awards show, and next week’s main event John Cena vs. Mark Henry. Then he introduces CM Punk. Punk comes down to the ring, he gets rid of the chair and table in the ring and says this is a big cliche.

He says these things always end in a pier 6 brawl and wants that term to trend on Twitter. He says Laurinaitis is neither creative nor exciting and that there hasn’t been a peaceful contract signing since Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant at Wrestlemania 3. He tells Laurinaitis to play the part of Jack Tunney so that they can all sign and then fight.

Laurinaitis says the match at TLC will be a TLC match (tables, Ladders & Chairs). Miz says that he took out R-Truth and John Morrison. Punk says “You took them out? Like on a date?” He asks if he took them out to see the new Twilight flick.

Miz said he injured Morrison so bad that Laurinaitis had to release him. Laurinaitis says “I’d like to take this time to wish John Morrison the best in his future endeavors.” when Ace just wished Morrison the best of luck in his future endeavors with a point and wink that was pretty darn funny.

Del Rio says they are little girls and that he is the best in the world. He say’s in 2011 he won the Royal Rumble, Money in the Bank, and the WWE Championship. Punk cuts him off and says “if you say it’s because of your destiny I swear to Jebus I’m gonna start drinking.”

Get it Punk is Straight Edge and doesn’t drink or do drugs of any kind. All three sign the contract Punk wants to fight after he signs but Laurinaitis says no. Ace wants a photo op so Punk hits Miz the with mic and we get a pier six brawl. Punk puts Del Rio through a table and the GTS Miz.

Hall of Famer and OG Roddy Piper makes his way to the ring for a special Piper’s Pit. Last few times I saw Piper on WWE TV he looked like complete shit. On Monday’s RAW Rowdy Roddy didn’t look like he was half dead, thats always good.

Piper said something that made me nod in agreement. “How a guy who never won the WWE Title, one who wasn’t ever the biggest or strongest, has became a Hall of Famer and one of the biggest icons. The answer energy”.

Piper talks about how when the crowd cheered him, he did good things, and when they boo’d him, he did rotten things. Piper goes on and brings out John Cena. Piper says Cena is the face of WWE, but the booing is getting louder. Piper starts poking Cena to tell the fans what’s on his mind.

Cena says he has no idea as to what Piper is talking about when piper says energy isn’t important to Cena. Piper talks about how the fans wanted The Rock to Rock Bottom Cena at Survivor Series and when he did, they came cheered. A “Boots To Asses” chant starts up.

Cena says response’s with the political answer, its the fans right to cheer and boo who they want blah blah. Cena went one to say you can’t please everyone and says the fans can do what they want. Piper slapped him in the face to try to get him to wake up, Cena just walked out the ring. So now the story line headed into the next few months “are boos getting to Cena?”

This Cena segment was suppose to be about the fans that boo Cena, so of course the crowd is sorta pro Cena tonight. The one time WWE tires to acknowledge the boo’s it sorta blows up their face. They were hoping for an anti cena crowd, so Piper is pretending it’s anti cena… Cuzo Drew texted me “totally weird stuff with this Cena segment.”

First match on RAW is a falls Count Anywhere Match. The Miz vs. John Morrison. JoMo makes his entrance The Miz attacks from behind, the bell rings and Miz goes for the leg.

Miz continues to attack Morrison’s leg we even see a kendo stick out makes a cameo appearance in this match. Morrison grabs the stick and channels his inner Sandman. Miz crawls up the ramp, Morrison and the kendo stick follow suit. Skull Crushing Finale on the stage Miz official wins.

Miz just destroyed JoMo…Tonight was Morrison’s last night with the company. Im curious as to what is Morrison’s next move. TNA Perhaps? Cuzo Drew agrees that JoMo vs AJ or JoMo vs Austin Aries would be a ton of fun to watch.

After celebrating, Miz takes a mic and heads to the ring Miz says last week it was R-Truth, this week it’s John Morrison. Next week, we’ll see. He says he can do it because he’s awesome.

The Bella Twins vs. Alicia Fox and Kelly Kelly. Its a Diva’s match 8 sets of boob four sets of cheeks, I enjoyed Beth and Natalya jogging around the ring then up the ramp. This match ends with Alicia hits her leg drop finisher for the win.

John Laurinaitis and David Otunga are backstage talking about Brodus Clay. Laurinaitis says the longer he holds off on his debut, the more impact it will have. Ummm I dont know about all that but this makes the 6th week in a row WWE has pushed back.. Clays “debut”.

Del Rio walks in and says Survivor Series was a setback and he will walk out tonight as WWE Champion. CM Punk walks in and mocks Otunga, Laurinaitis and Del Rio. Punk says the WWE Title isn’t going anywhere. Otunga says that sounded like a threat and implies Punk will get himself intentionally DQ’d tonight to retain the title. Laurinaitis says if Punk gets himself DQ’d, he will lose the title. “Sir I have a law degree from Havard, I know what people are thinking without saying it” ahhh Otunga…

Dolph Ziggler vs Randy Orton. Ziggs actually had a non squash match with Randy Orton. Are you seeing what I have been telling you for weeks? Ziggler is the truth. Wade Barrett comes out for commentary, so I watched this match on mute. Great back and forth action. Orton hits the second rope draping DDT. Orton goes for the RKO but Ziggler rolls out of the ring and goes to leave. Barrett gets on the apron and Orton dropkicks him. Ziggler runs in from behind and lays Orton out for the win. Easily the best match of the night. Dolph Ziggler most improved all around performer in 2011.

Michael Cole is in the ring with Daniel Bryan. Bryan wonders if maybe he has just some of Cole’s respect now and mentions winning the four-way. Cole keeps calling Bryan a hypocrite for trying to cash in on Mark Henry when he couldn’t compete.

Last week on Cole SmackDown with Big Show snuffed Henry..like KO’D Henry, Bryan cashed in, his Money In The Bank. Got the 3 count. We all think he is the new Heavy Weight Champion, I jump up and down and make a ton of racket only to see the match overturned by Teddy Long.

So now Cole breaks Bryan’s balls about this situation. Cole says Bryan disgusts him and he’s nothing but a hypocrite. Bryan defends his actions saying the briefcase doesn’t guarantee him anything. He saw an opportunity and took it.

Henry comes to the stage and says Bryan should be ashamed of himself for trying to take advantage of him. Henry is still playing up his injury. Henry says it’s ok because he’s the World’s Strongest Man and he will defend his World Title in the steel cage. Bryan leaves the ring and starts walking up the ramp. Henry says Bryan can’t beat him.

Bryan walks up the ramp and kicks Henry’s foot that’s in a boot. Bryan says we will see tomorrow night and walks to the back. How much swag did this segment have? Tons. Daniel Bryan has a great heel beard going. Hopefully the Bryan push continues.

Zack Ryder vs. Jack Swagger. Yes another week Ryder is on RAW, WOO WOO WOO!!!! Swagger attempts the Swagger Bomb twice but Ryder puts his feet up. Ryder hits the Ruff Ryder for the win.

Mick Foley comes out dressed as Santa Claus to promote tomorrow night’s SmackDown special. Not much to it at all. Foley really never made me go WOW this guy is great. The Hell in the Cell with the Undertaker is Foley’s greatest achievement in my opinion.

Backstage CM Punk is stopped by Josh Matthews. Matthews asks about the stipulation that Laurinaitis added to the match. Punk says Laurinaitis can kiss his ass. Crowd Pops.

WWE Title Match: Alberto Del Rio vs. CM Punk. Ricardo Rodriguez introduces Alberto Del Rio. I still mark too Del Rio’s intro. Throughout the whole match Del Rio goes to worked on Punk’s arm. Punk did a great job of selling the arm. Later in the match Punk suicide dives through the ropes and takes Del Rio out on the floor both are back in the ring. Del Rio with more focus on Punk’s arm.

Del Rio unties the turnbuckle pad. The referee turns his back to fix it. Del Rio throws Punk a chair, trying to get him disqualified. Punk doing his best Eddie Guerrero impression throws it back to Del Rio and drops to the mat.

The ref goes to DQ Del Rio. Ricardo gets on the apron and argues with the referee. Del Rio goes to throw Punk into the exposed turnbuckle. Punk counters and drops him onto the turnbuckle with a GTS for the win. After the match, Punk celebrates and hits Ricardo with a GTS.

Closing Thoughts: RAW has been much better the last three weeks. Alberto Del Rio vs. CM Punk? No heat for the up coming TLC PPV. We have seen them wrestle for free on RAW for the title interest gone.

I got a tweet asking me if I feel The Miz ripping off Chris Jericho’s promo style? Nope. Miz is really getting into a groove if Miz keeps this up hes going to be an a great heel.

Dolph Ziggler continues to impress the hell out of me. We all need to see a Punk/Ziggler run. The match they had on RAW 2 weeks ago held my attention from bell to bell. The crowd popped for every two count. Both worked well with each other.

Daniel Bryan finally gets the TV he needs to develop this bad ass character. I seen him be super bad ass in ROH. If your new to D-Bryan be prepared to enjoy the beard.

The build for the PPV was a bit sketchy at first but WWE hit a stride and it showed in the quality of the product. From open to close, I was looking forward to seeing what. I believe Survivor Series is the Kick off to Wrestlemania. Tweet me if you think otherwise.

United States Championship Match Dolph Ziggler vs John Morrison: GREAT show opener. AMAZING RING WORK by both performers. Ziggler has been one of the best superstars in the WWE for months. Vickie saving the nearfall and being ejected was clutch she really played up the ejection. Anyone else noticed Ziggs used the Fame Asser? The finish went like this Ziggler got his knees up when Morrison attempted Starship Pain and then hit the Zig Zag.

After the match, Ziggler cut a promo, Dolph is really getting into the groove of this cocky character the “How good am I?” speech at the end of this match made me yell “let that boy cook” at my TV. Zack Ryder come running out to a huge pop from the crowd and hit the Rough Ryder on Ziggler. MSG was Woo Woo Woo-ing the entire time.

I hope Ziggler and Ryder mix it up at TLC. The WE WANT RYDER chant through out Ziggler/Morrison’s match really adds to the build up between Ziggler and Zack Ryder. I wished the match happened at Survivor Series but the match Ziggler had with Morrison was a great watch

Lumberjill Divas Championship Match Beth Phoenix vs Eve: Do I really need to give you a review All the Diva’s looked hot many sets of boobs. Hot Eve Torres takes the bump of the night Glam Slam off the top rope. I hope we get Beth vs Natalya feud soon.

Survivor Series Traditional Match Team Orton vs. Team Barrett: I was disappointment with this match. The teams where stacked with talent, but the match felt flat. Ziggler was eliminated to early, Sin Cara botching yet another move on PPV. The heels are sent from the ring and Kofi and Sin Cara go over the top at the same time. Sin Cara’s dive looked nasty, not connecting with Hunico at all. You knew it was a real injury when the match stalled and everyone seems confused as to what to do.

I forgot Mason Ryan was in the match, did anyone else forget he was even in the ring? Kofi, Swagger and Hunico made everyone else look great.

As always Sheamus looked strong I liked the way he was eliminated, Sheamus only got eliminated because he was disqualified after refusing to stop dropping knees. Sheamus is rather pissed and hits Swagger with a bicycle kick on his way out. Orton pins Swagger. Orton not being Super Orton I thought was a good look for both Barrett and Cody. With Barrett hitting Wasteland on Randy Orton this victory makes Rhodes and Barrett huge heels on Smackdown.

I dont know If Im completely sold on Barrett. His nexus run could have really owned but I felt he was bland in certain area’s. I would like to see how WWE Creative would book Barrett against Henry.

World Heavyweight Championship Match Mark Henry vs The Big Show: This match had a slow start the crowd is chanting boring. After an exchange of big guy moves the crowd is now chanting for Daniel Bryan. Big Show hits Henry with something that resembled a superkick, and now the crowd’s chanting HBK. The crowd really amused them selves during this match. I liked it. Props to the Big Show who pretty much had the best match of his career at Survivor Series. Big Show going to the top rope for the Savage elbow drop had MSG chanting Randy Savage…I marked.

Im not mad that Mark Henry hits The Big Show with a low blow Big Show wins the match via DQ, you cant have your two power houses who are book to be monsters lose cleanly it takes away from the heat.

I hope Big Show/Henry 3 will finally end this feud at TLC. At the end of the match Big Show hit Henry with the WMD, the crowd starts chanting for Daniel Bryan had that happened the roof of MSG would have blew off. But Big Show “broke” Henry’s ankle much like Henry did to Big Show back during the summer. I have been saying for months that WWE Creative has been doing a great job at booking Henry. I hope an “injury” angle dosnt come in to play it can hurt Henry’s momentum.

WWE Championship Title match Alberto Del Rio vs CM Punk: Going into this match, Punk had lost the last four Pay-per-views so I was a bit skeptical that he would be victorious. Im a huge Punk stan this is evident but his PPV track record is sketchy.

Yet, the only way we really expected that trend to continue was if Del Rio won dirty. That didn’t happen, though, as Punk made ADR tap out to the Anaconda Vise to win the WWE Championship.

The crowd is chanting for Punk before Del Rio is even introduced. Ricardo Rodriguez who was money as usual introduces the WWE Champion. Punk decides to have his own personal ring announcer for the evening its Howard Finkel. The Fink is greeted with a big pop from the crowd. The Fink waits a few seconds to soak in the cheers and finally he announces Punk. Punk gives him a look like I was waiting. I think what made this moment super cool was Lawler, Cole and Booker T’s reaction for The Finks pop. My twitter time line exploded for The Fink.

Before the bell rings the crowd chants that they want ice cream and Colt Cabana. Both wrestlers worked the others arms, as you knew this was going to end by submission. Punk climbs to the top turnbuckle for a Macho Man elbow. We get another Randy Savage chant from the crowd.

I really enjoyed the final moments before the finish, Punk almost connects with the GTS, but Del Rio fights out and pushes Punk away. Punk kicks Ricardo off the apron the anaconda vice is locked in. Del Rio and submits.

You know you made it in the WWE when The Fink says “AND NEEEWWW WORLD WRESTLING ENTERTAINMENT CHAMPION” Punk takes a dive into the crowd to celebrate.

Punk and Del Rio most likely meet again at TLC next month, I dont see Del Rio going over, Del Rio’s run as a WWE title contender is donzo. Who will be Punk’s next challenger maybe Ziggler? I think that would be a great feud. I think this title run for Punk will be a long one. I see him going to all the way to Wrestlemania 28.

The Rock & John Cena vs. The Miz & R-Truth: Let me start off and say I enjoy Cena’s entrance, Cena stops to talk to the camera, saying the fans love him here in New York City. You cant say Cena sucks the dude plays the role WWE needs. We all want Cena to go heel but the dude sells way too many t-shirts for them to do such a thing.

I was surprised that the match wasn’t a total squash, the outcome predictable. The Rock and Cena winning with a cleaning finish. I would have liked to see The Miz and Truth win because Rock and Cena wouldn’t be able to work with each other. The WWE could have really made the build up to Wrestlemania 28 that much more if Cena turned heel and Awesome Truth got the W.

The Rock and Cena’s hatred for each other would have reached a crescendo and fan’s brains oozing due to awesomeness. The crowd boo’d Cena the entire time he was out there at one point the crowd started to cheer for The Miz. Instead, we got an ending that my mom who never watches wrestling called at sunday dinner.

Here is how the finish goes The Rock puts Miz in a sharpshooter. Even in The Rocks prime his sharpshooter was a complete mess, Miz screams and tries to reach for the ropes, but Rock pulls him to the middle of the ring. Truth breaks up the hold, but he’s speared by Cena take the fight to the outside. The Rock hits Miz with a spinebuster, Rock delivers the People’s elbow, and gets the 1,2,3.

After the match, Rock celebrates in the ring, posing in the corners. Cena applauds Rock as he makes his way toward the back. Rock calls for the crowd to quiet down, and his music to stop. He doesn’t look too happy with Cena clapping for him. Cena makes his way back into the ring. Cena poses on the turnbuckle, but gets nothing but heat for it. Cena comes back into the ring, and he and Rock have a few words.

Cena and Rock stand face to face in the ring and have words. Cena goes to leave, but Rock hits him with the Rock Bottom. The PPV ends with Rock staring down Cena as Cena makes his way to the back. Rock climbs the turnbuckle point up to the sky and thanks his grandfather and we fade to black.

Closing thoughts: Outstanding Job by COle, King and Booker T. I really thought their back and fourth was engaging. Booker T is a real good fit calling matches, Coles twitter references weren’t that annoying this go around.

CM Punk takes his rightful place as the face of Monday Night RAW, hopefully Punk keeps the title for more than one PPV. His on going feud with Johnny Laurinaitis can really go in direction. (Think McMahon/Austin)

If WWE goes with Mark Henry’s ankle being broken, expect the World HeavyWeight Title to be vacated and than around the waist of Wade Barrett.

Dolph Ziggler will get the push to the main event more sooner than later. Punk/Ziggler would be crazy. The Rock still has it, don’t expect a Cena heel turn, he will have heat no matter what but an official turn will NOT HAPPEN.

Finally where’s Daniel Bryan? This would have been a great way for him to cash in and win the strap with out making Henry look weak. Setting up Barrett vs Bryan, if you remember they had a great match a few months back.

Survivor Series is the second best PPV the WWE had this year. MITB at one and SummerSlam at number three. I think the WWE is finally paying attention to what the fans want (Old I.C. belt, Zach Ryder, CM Punk’s rockstar rise). If they can really kick it up to where we all expect it to go WrestleMania will be the show of the year.

Here’s a fun fact the last Raw of the year is in Chicago on December 26, so Punk walking into his hometown as champion might be the best bet. WWE has a lot of options. So if Punk does not win tonight don’t fear Punkamaniacs before this year is over, CM Punk will have the WWE Title once again. Hopefully he changes that ugly belt. Were waitng for the change Punk.

The 1996 Survivor Series has two of my favorite matches. Stone Cold vs Bret hart and Shawn Michaels vs. Psycho Sid for WWF Championship. I wasn’t amazed at the match what makes this a favorite of mine was Sid being the crowd favorite. Cities like NYC, Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago tend to cheer for the heels. I think most of the cheers Sid received were from anti-HBK and pro-Bret Hart fans.

Say what you will about Sid’s in ring ability, dude was crazy over. This match also shows the greatness that is Shawn Michaels. HBK could carry a broomstick to an awesome match. Sid looks beastly through this match thanks to HBK.

Eddie Guerrero Vs Rey Mysterio (Mask Vs WCW Cruiserweight Championship)

Eddie Guerrero Vs Brock Lesnar WWE Championship

These two match are completely styles. The one thing they both have in common is Eddie’s story telling in the ring. Even when Eddie was the “rudo” he was still over, his cheat to win gimmick is my all time favorite. Today on twitter Eddie Guerrero is a trending topic Viva la raza!

Cena opens the program and is greeted with boo’s. John mentioned the record breaking “one day” ticket sales, for Wrestlemaina 28. Brilliant move to announce Rock vs Cena the night after Wrestlemaina 27.

Wrestling fans who haven’t watched in years are now watching again. Then we get a Survivor Series plug. Cena plugs next week’s show…Where The Rock will be live in Boston for a three hour edition.

I marked a bit when he said when the madness meets the maina. (Savage/Hogan reference for anyone born after 95)

Before Cena could finish, he was interrupted by The Miz & R-Truth. Miz cut an amazing promo. Truth added “get got”. Both went down the ring to attack Cena, Zack Ryder makes the save as the pop for Ryder was huge. Clearly you can see Cena is a Ryder supporter and it was a nice built up for Ryder.

As Dolph Ziggler makes his way to the ring, Cole and Lawler mentioned Ryder’s online petition. Ryder has been tweeting a petition for a match against Dolph Ziggler at Survivor Series for the US Title. We all know this is a go. Two things need to happen Ziggler moving from mid card to main event and Ryder going over. I think a Punk/Ziggs feud would be impressive. The amount of new content Ryder would do on his web show if he had the U.S title would give it some zest. Its been rather stale as of late.

John Morrison vs Dolph Ziggler. I know I said WTF too. Luckily for Morrison he was facing Ziggs so my interest was held. Shockingly the chemistry between Ziggs and Morrison was money in terms of ring quality. The crowd was a bite mute which was odd to me because this was a great match. The head scissors DDT combo Morrison did was very impressive. The match ends with Ziggler rolling up Morrison, getting a near fall. Morrison was able to counter into a pinfall for win. You can breath a sigh of relief I don’t see a Morrison Push.

Mason Ryan vs JTG. JTG is still employed who knew. I didn’t. This was a squash match NEXT…Mason Ryan is bigger than everybody and his in-ring limitations are starting to show. Don’t expect to see more than two minute squash matches.

Backstage, We get a Bella twins/Zack Ryder segment. Ryder brags about being Cena’s partner. The Bella’s are super hot and their twins. WOO WOO WOO.

Michael Cole announced JR was detained so “The Michael Cole Challenge” will take place It will be next week in Boston. Cole ended the promo by saying instead of “Raw gets Rocked, Raw gets Coled” next week. Do we care? I don’t.

Alberto Del Rio vs Kofi Kingston. I enjoyed the matches ADR and Kofi had earlier in the year on Smackdown, but this wasn’t going to be a 15 minute back and fourth this was a one sided lets build ADR’s heat as champion match. Del Rio won via tapout with the Cross Armbreaker. It’s important that Del Rio be booked strong going into the match with Punk. Post match, Del Rio put Kingston in the Cross Armbreaker again as we all wait for CM Punk’s music to hit.

Punker was greeted with a nice pop. Del Rio complained about how Punk got his title shot, Del Rio ripped on the fans and demanded to be treated with respect. Punk responded by saying that when people watched Del Rio’s promos on DVR they could hit fast forward without missing anything, Punk calls ADR boring. Punk said he’d beat Del Rio and make the WWE Title interesting again. (Punk has said this once already and didn’t deliver, were still waiting Punk)

Del Rio wanted Punk to cancel the match. Punk said NO!!!! Del Rio tried to attack, Punk fought him off, Ricardo Rodriguez saves ADR for his efforts Ricardo gets a GTS to the dome piece.

I enjoyed the promo. The back and fourth was a bit rough but Punk and Del Rio did a good job of making me want to see this match in two weeks at Survivor Series.

Jack Swagger vs Santino. Who cares Swagger won with the ankle lock. You know its bad when the announcers talk about the Michael Cole Challenge and not the match.

Jerry Lawler was in the ring and he introduced Kelly Kelly, she’s on the cover of Maxim. When was the last time anyone even read Maxim? Remember when WWE Diva’s had Playboy covers.

The Divas of doom come out they really own yet the crowd tuned out, Hot Eve Torres and Alicia came out to save Kelly.

The interim Raw GM John Ace introduces Kevin Nash. Nash must be doing no shave November like my self cause he was in good beard. Nash has a new contract. Nash claims he got the biggest pop of the night at the Royal Rumble, but Hunter wouldn’t sign him. He wanted a full contract but only got a legends contract. Nash felt justified about the attack on Hunter. I like the intensity set fourth by Nash. But I just don’t see him doing much in ring work a paper cut will put him on the injury list. REMINDER WE SAW THIS FEUD BACK IN 2003.

Now we go backstage, Laurinaitis talks to David “thank god I still have a job” Otunga. CM Punk walked up. Otunga earned his paycheck when he said he don’t see a WWE Champion to looking like he worked at a gas station. Punk had a great line before attacked Mr Jennifer Hudson. Del Rio showed up and beats up Punk.

Back from break, Cole and lawler recapped the Punk/Del Rio attack. Kudos WWE creative for finally selling soap. I now care to see a WWE Title match.

The Miz/R-Truth vs John Cena/Zack Ryder. YEA BUDDY Ryder is in a main event. Ryder pops like crazy. he’s over people and he did that all on his own SWAG!!!!! Ryder for much of the match took the ass whoopin. He finally got the hot tag to Cena (hot tags are what make tag team wrestling amazing). Were about to see Super Cean but Miz kicks Cena in face, goes for the covered, Truth grabbed Cena’s foot and we see a REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY WEAK FINISH.

At any point at the end did Cena even sell the threat of Awesome Truth? I did like Cena saying “thats your one you dont get two”. Remember in the 80s bad guys were made to look like a threat. We get it Truth & Miz will do anything to win, but give me the classic brass knuckles. Anything is better than that ending.

Word around the IWC (internet wrestling community) WWE had to shoot the ending twice. The first time, Truth botched the ending. These are our bad guys will are suppose to be a threat to the Rock.

Closing thoughts: You know what really pissed me off how I don’t have a job as a commentator. Sometimes I really enjoy the commentating of Michael Cole and than other times I’d rather listen to that Cat Daddy song then hear NO SELL. Lawler plugging WWE’s newest video game saying it was his favorite made me cringe.

Dude your as old as my dad, he doesnt know what XBOX 360 is. My dad knows tools and Marlboro’s, the man hasnt a clue on how to send a text message. So I’m not buying Lawlers old ass is playing a video games.

Cole makes reference to Ryder’s “Internet Championship” yet we never see Ryder bring it to the ring. Ryder’s John cena stan shit needs to stop. I can give two flying fucks that Brodus Clay returns next week.

Was this even a “Supershow”? I read Smackdown had a house show in the UK so the roster was in the building. Where was Mark Henry?

I believe the 3 hour Raw next week with The Rock’s live return (he will be in the building in Boston) will really promote the shit out of Survivor Series. Like I said last week this Pay-Per-Veiw lives and dies on The Rock.

I also got an email asking why haven’t I covered TNA Impact Wrestling? My response is Id rather listen to Racks or that Tony Montana record on repeat then sit through “impact Wrestling”. Once Vice Russo, Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan get fired then Ill consider viewing that shit show.

Even WWE’s sub par story lines as of late are far more engaging than anything TNA can conger up. So with that lets start this review…

If you remember last week John Cena asked “The Great One” to be his tag partner against The Miz & R-Truth at Survivor Series. So yea RAW starts off with The Rock in a prerecorded promo. Its Dwayne, the actor who used to wrestle. Who’s part time wrestling again. Side note What the hell is The Rock on? HGH? Maybe Anadrol, Dianabol or Sustanon to bulk with Anavar or Primobolan to lean out? The villain goatee with gray hairs might foreshadow a turn maybe.

The Rock does the typical Rock stick. The people this that people that add a few candy asses and close with catchphrase. So the “People’s Champion” The Rock, John Cena’s WrestleMania XXVIII opponent will be Cena’s partner at the Survivor Series.

That is how this past Monday RAW Halloween Supershow started. O yeah The Muppets are the Guest host of RAW. Yeah I can careless about that nonsense as well.

CM Punk who is wearing the best T-shirt ever from the greatest movie B movie classic ever Big Trouble in Little China made me mark that much more. Best martial arts comedy film EVER. Jack Burton, played by Kurt Russell, was the protagonist in the film.

Punk faces World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry in a non-title match, if Punk can defeat Henry, Punk will receive his shot for the WWE Title against Alberto Del Rio at Survivor Series.

During the match, WWE Champion Del Rio comes out with his personal ring announcer Ricardo Rodriguez, Rodriguez attacks Mark Henry with his patent leather shoe. Yeah Henry doesn’t get show weakness in a Hell In The Cell, but a shoe really does damage. Henry wins via DQ, no WWE title shot for CM. Punk loses his shit and suicide dives onto ADR, Punk tosses Ricardo to Henry.

The pig and the frog get introduced. I loose interest faster than listening to a Charles Hamilton mix tape, only to get pulled back in when out comes Swagger and Vicki. Both start to bully The Muppets, like I called last week Santino aids The Muppets in comic relief. Santino says its him vs Swagger tonight and Ziggs vs Ryder.

A Divas Costume Battle Royal is next. Remember when WWE would have these chicks strip down to almost nothing? Those were the days. Kelly Kelly is dressed as a pirate, Eve is dressed as Robin, Alicia Fox is a sailor, Rosa Mendes is a cavewoman, Aksana is Morticia Adams, A.J. is Kitana from Mortal Kombat, Kaitlyn is Dog The Bounty Hunter, The Bella Twins are Mario & Luigi, Tamina is an Egyptian Goddess, and Natalya as the Queen of Hearts.

Here is how this shit show ends. Natalya eliminates Alicia Fox, followed by Kelly Kelly. Eve catches Natalya off-guard with an elimination to become the #1 Contender for the Divas Title.

We get another Muppets segment with Dr Bunson creating an energy drink that he wanted Beaker to send to Santino. Beaker gets interrupted by Christian who is bullying Beaker. Since Sheamus is one of the main faces in WWE’s anti bullying campaign lets teach the young’s not to bully.

Sheamus told Beaker that he wouldn’t be able to make the family reunion later in the year. He then spiked Beaker’s ginger hair great usage for two upper midcarders.

Cody Rhodes and Wade Barrett defeated Air Boom via pinfall, since Wade Barrett was in this match I raided my goddaughters trick or treat goodie bag for snickers, when I returned I saw
Christian run in to attack Kofi. Sheamus makes the save could this be a survivor series multi-tag match? NOPERS Evan Bourne is suspended for 30 days he violated WWE’s wellness policy.

The amount of research I had to do to get the names of these goddamn Muppets angered me beyond belief. The old muppets are named Statler and Waldorf. They are watching the show and one of the old muppets does the Stone Cold WHAT! chant.

Punk walked into Laurenitis’ office and wanted to know if he thought that what he saw in the ring was fair and impartial. Laurenitis said that Punk was still allowed his match at Survivor Series so long as Del Rio agreed to give him one.

So now its The Big Show vs Alberto Del Rio the silence during the match spoke volumes. This match felt like it went on forever. Del Rio tired to do something un heard of wrestle and make the Big Show look decent. ADR really carried this whole match, ADR attempted a rope assisted enziguri but was hit with Big Show’s knockout punch mid-air. Thank you WWE creative for killing ADR’s heat?

Post-match CM Punk arrived and grabbed the mic and a bottle of water. Punk sits Indian style poured the water on Del Rio’s face and told he was going to lock him in the anaconda F’N vice until Del Rio agreed to give him the title shot. Clearly we get a yes.

The storytelling between Punk and ADR has been strong. Is Punk back in his anti-hero tweener role? lets hope so the photo above angers me.

We get another Muppet segment with Gonzo and Fonzy, Cue Swagger and Ziggler who stretched out his arms and tied them around his face. Swagger and Ziggs are the reason a fuck has been given with these Muppet segments.

Can someone explain to me how Santino still has a job? His matches aren’t amusing with out Vladimir Kozlov as his comedic foil his segments fell weak. Why is he still employed. Shit rehire the Boogeyman at least his entrance was cool. Santino beats a former world champion with a spit take. OK where is the Ziggs/Ryder match.

Next match was Ziggs vs Ryder. MATCH OF THE NIGHT!!!! The crowd was into this match the entire time. The pop for Ryder on the first pin was crazy. Real talk this feud has been great. Ziggler and Ryder really need to continue this run. I need to see it given the whole shebang. This should lead to an eventual US Champion title reign for Zack. Then elevate Ziggs to main-event so he can go after Punk, if and when Punk gets the belt back.

Cody Rhodes really does own, The only segment I liked with The Muppets involved Rhodes placing a paper bag on Kermit the Frogs head. He says nothing yet owned. Let that boy cook.

The Miz vs Cena, what can I say we been down this road the match wasn’t to bad but it was the typical Cena match. I wont even make mention for R-truth’s interference wearing a Scream costume. It didn’t add anything to the finish Miz couldn’t get the W, I get it were selling soap, this match is on The Rock’s return without establishing a must see match. We all know there’s no way Rock and Cena will lose.

Closing thoughts: The show felt like a repeat, haven’t we seen this all before? With all this Muppet madness you forget Hunter and Kevin Nash even have a feud. With Hunter being out Now what? Do we care? How many times can they Jump start this old man beef?

Besides the the Ziggler/Ryder match what really caught your interest. Before you say Dwayne’s promo re watch it and tweet me your thoughts. That shit was a yawn fest. WWE how are you going to make Cena/Rock vs. Miz/Truth interesting? Awesome Truth is not a threat to Cena nor The Rock.

The only outcome I see really working is Cena turning heel. A Cena turn depends on WWE’s faith that Punk to carry RAW. Real talk, it’s not going to happen. The fan’s had a brief taste but WWE got cold feet. Maybe things will be different but who knows. The three-hour RAW later this month better establish the tension between Rock and Cena, Build more heat between Del Rio and Punk and really set the tone for Nash vs Hunter.

This might be the first time The Warrior has ever spoken logically. But he does make a point If you’re purchasing items from the places you oppose you aren’t fighting for financial change in this country. Your supporting the greed of those companies.

Not to shit on The Warrior, but this dude will sell anything with his name on it. Go on his website and see for your self.

I speed through the fluff now that could be most if not all of the program, yet I still have faith so with remote in hand lets start GO….. Triple H started off Monday Night RAW, Im getting flash backs of 2003. In 03 hunter had beef with both HBK and Kevin Nash. 8 years later the old man beef continues.

Triple H said that he could make friends or make money. He said he’s always lived by those words. Hunter said he considered himself the lucky one who was able to make money and have a strong group of friends. He mentioned Shawn Michaels, Sean Waltman, and Kevin Nash. No mention of Scott Hall, REALLY Hunter.. Not cool bro not cool.

Buy this point the crowd eating out of Hunters hands. Hunter said Kevin Nash broke my heart,” The broken hearted went on to say he wants to kick Nash’s ass. Johnny Ace makes an appearance and stared to say something raspy but Hunter told Laurinaitis to shut up and not walk through the ropes. Hunter said Laurinaitis’s job for tonight was to search the building and find Nash, and bring him to the ring.

Triple H left the ring stopped to yell at Johnny Ace some more Kevin Nash walked out behind Triple H and hit him with a sledgehammer. Kevin Nash is a ninja. All sorts of craziness went down with EMS and security personal a backstage segment later triple H collapsed and foamed at the mouth.

I giggle when Cole and Lawler use the somber voices while discussing a medical situation.
Backstage Hunter, who was strapped to a gurney, gets abducted by Super Shredder. Nash put the sledgehammer in Hunters face and BAM. Security pulls Nash away from Hunter. When Nash doesn’t speak he is entertaining to watch, not all the time but moments like this he’s watchable.

Randy Orton and Sheamus beat Christian and Cody Rhodes. The match was real a good opening match. Sheamus catches Cody in the nuts with a Brogue Kick followed up with a Celtic Cross (it will always be the Razor’s Edge to me) for the three. Cole said knee but that shit was a nut kick.

Backstage, Laurinaitis on the phone with Mrs Hunter assured her that Triple H is okay. For some reason David Otunga was in the room he spoke for 3 whole seconds as John Cena burst into the room and started performing stick, plugs Zack Ryder’s Twitter page then asks to have a match with Miz and Truth. Ace says that match goes down tonight and he will pick Cena’s tag partner.

Dolph Ziggler accompanied by Vickie Guerrero and Jack Swagger beat Santino Marella. Yeah I left the room too. Ziggler hit his finisher for the victory. After the match, Swagger put Santino in the ankle lock. Mason Ryan aka Batista junior ran out and made the save continuing the build to to a Mason Ryan Ziggler match.

Backstage, the hot Bellas were standing around looking hot Zack Ryder who was super stoked excitedly announced that he’ll be John Cena’s partner in the match against The Miz and R-Truth…

Ricardo Rodriguez, is in good voice tonight as he introduced Alberto Del Rio. Del Rio talks about retaining the WWE Championship and said it’s going to stay that way for a long time.

The Punkster begs to differ and goes into detail Punk style about Del Rio. ADR calls Punk a loser and says losers don’t get title shots. John Laurinaitis makes another appearance and suggested Del Rio vs. Punk for the WWE Championship at Survivor Series. Punk isn’t exactly solid that is this easy to get a title shot and questions Laurinaitis actions. Ace wants to hear Punk say he respects him, Punk sarcastically says so and Ace responded with he now has to think about. Is this really compelling TV?

So what feels like a wasted segment Punk attacked Del Rio, who avoided the GTS. Ricardo Rodriguez wasn’t so lucky GTS from Punk…

We finally get a match and its Alicia Fox vs Natalya. Beth Phoenix was on commentary. Beth kinda looked hot. Lets not forget to mention Wade Barrett beat John Morrison. The announce team could careless about this match just like you and I. Michael Cole talked about tweeting

Michael Cole in the serious voice announced that Triple H suffered a concussion. He said he also suffered a neck injury. WWE has to have stock in twitter because they plugged the shit out of twitter all night, Cole makes mention the Jim Ross has been on Twitter mean things about Cole. Cole said he wants to put an end to it once and for all. Cole challenged Ross to “The Michael Cole Challenge.” He said he was going to keep the rules under wraps. He said that if Ross wins, he’ll quit…Yeah I can care less about this match as well.

So who else is pissed that The Muppets will be featured on next week’s Raw. Really The Muppets. Are you kidding me? I bet Fozzie Bear can cut a better promo than Johnny Ace but WTF. Expect a John Cena, Missy Piggy segment. Santino Marella, Zack Ryder and Hornswoggle are going to get shoe horned into this mess as comedy relief.

For a brief second the idea of watching a John Morrison match seems better than Muppet segments, then I came back to my senses. Muppets > Morrison.

I dont know if you realize this loyal readers but kids make up a chunk of WWE’s audience, fan our age are in the 10 percent. The Muppets have a movie to promote and Vince McMahon loves this kids and Vince loves to bring ratings anyway he can. I talk as if The Muppets are real. Kermit the Frog the Raw General Manager

Josh Mathews interviewed Zack Ryder, The Miz and R-Truth attacked Ryder and left him lying backstage… The Miz and R-Truth started to make their entrance. Angry Miz and Truth cut the promo of the night

John Laurinaitis had changed the main event. Due to Ryder’s injury it will now be a handicap match. John Cena defeated The Miz and R-Truth by DQ in a handicap match. Laurinaitis entered the ring and said he wouldn’t stand for their disrespect. He told Miz and Truth to get out and then ordered the referees to escort them to the back. They started to leave, but Laurinaitis told them to stop. He said he was going to put them in a legitimate tag team match.

Laurinaitis said he picked Cena’s partner and it didn’t work out, so he’s letting Cena pick his own partner at Survivor Series. A “Rocky” chant started. Cena said that if he’s going to beat The Miz and R-Truth, then his partner must be someone who is going to BRING IT. Cena announced that his partner will be The Rock.

Closing thoughts: What I got from this RAW was The Muppets will be guest hosting next week. John Cena’s movie looks like complete ass, ads aired for The Rock’s return to action at Survivor Series and finally WWE hearts twitter a lot. I hope Cena is in on this so called “conspiracy” that CM Punk has accused Laurinaitis of being involved in. If this is a setup for Cena turning heel on The Rock at Survivor Series than all the nonsense we’ve endured for weeks on end will be worth it….Maybe

The card did not have any matches I cared to see other than The tag team title match and Randy Orton vs Cody Rhodes. Its not that I didn’t like the PPV all the matches were solid, I just got the feeling this was the fluff PPV since no titles changed hands and most feuds will continue on for Survivor Series.

Tag Team Title match Air Boom vs Dolph Ziggler/Jack Swagger: Great back and fourth between both teams. Kingston hit Trouble in paradise on Ziggler, Bourne followed up with AirBourne for the pin. I have lost count how many times I have said that Zigg’s and Swagger are a great pairing. Zigg’s and Swagger are entertaining to watch, but I think Ziggs is better suited a a singles wrestler anyone else get the Curt Hennig vibe when watching Ziggler?

U.S. Title Match Dolph Ziggler vs Zack Ryder: I know Ryder on a PPV I was hyped as well. Dolph pulled double duty, as he defeated Zack Ryder to retain the United States Championship. Ziggler attempted to escape the ring but, Air Boom returned Ziggler to the ring, the referee ejected them from ringside. Ryder hit the Broski boot.

Swagger attacked Ryder as Vickie distracted the referee and Ziggler caught Ryder with a superkick for the win. I respect Ryder’s hustle what he was able to create off the strength of social media. I would love to see title for title… The Internet Championship and the United States on the line.

I wish WWE would let Ryder defend his Internet strap on TV. Michael Cole has made reference of its existence its time WWE TV see’s that bad boy.

Divas Championship Match Beth Phoenix vs Eve Torres: Eve’s hot and Beth won. On to the next one.

Sheamus vs Christian: Christian and Sheamus work well together. Christian does all the wrestling stuff and Sheamus does the big guy/hulk up jazz. The exchanged where Sheamus hit a springboard shoulder block, but Christian caught him with a reverse DDT was great. Christian went for a spear, but Sheamus hit the Brogue kick for the win.

Awesome Truth vs Triple H/CM Punk: The spot where HHH locked in the figure-four leglock on the Miz, and Punk pulled on his arms to increase the leverage is such a throwback to 80s tag team wrestling. Kevin Nash returned and took out Triple H, continuing their old man beef. Punk prepared to take Miz out with the GTS, but Truth runs in and helps take Punk out with a new/amazing version of the Skull Crushing Finale.

Kevin Nash continued the assault on HHH and hit the Jackknife powerbomb. Lawler used his serious voice to sell the move. Do we need another rematch between Hunter and Nash? In 2003 they fought at Hell in The Cell and at Judgement Day. Cant we go back and watch those not see the remake 8 years later?

Randy Orton vs Cody Rhodes:This match might have been the most solid of the card. One of Cody’s bag men jumped on the apron, Rhodes hit CrossRhodes, and Orton kicked out. Orton hit him with a dropkick and followed up with the hanging DDT. Orton went for an RKO of his own hit it for the 1-2-3.

Rhodes plays a great heel. I wish Rhodes got the win. Cody is working hard to make the Intercontinental title relevant again. The W over RKO helps push his career to another level. Orton is uber over the dude is so over that the simplest stare into the crowd receives a pop. So a victory over RKO even if it was by cheating makes Cody’s character that much better.

World Heavy Weight Title Match Mark Henry vs. the Big Show: I hope you were expecting wrestling holds, this match was two big guys doing big guy moves. Henry went to the top rope, and Show hit a chokeslam from the top. Show then tried to go to the top ropes, and Henry caught him and hit a superplex.

The ring fell apart, just like when Brock Lesnar hit Show with the superplex from SmackDown back in 2003. even the way the ring looked seemed the same. My twitter timeline was glued to this match. I totally understand why my timeline was compelled. The storyline dates back months and WWE has Mark Henry booked so well that even a match with the Big Show was actually a good watch.

Interim Raw GM Johnny Ace then took the microphone and announced the last name standing match would still happen, props too Cena and Del Rio pulling off moves in the fucked up ring. The brawl went backstage both Cena and Del Rio threw all sorts of shit at one another like the backstage interview set.

WWE Championship Match: Alberto Del Rio vs John Cena: Attitude Adjuster through the Spanish announcers table. The referee was preparing to count to ten but out of now where the Miz and R-Truth appear attacking Cena. Cena starts to enter super Cena mode but before hes fully there, Del Rio hits him with the title belt. Cena was out of it, and Del Rio had retained the title.

Closing thoughts: With WWE having held three pay per views in a five-week period, Vengeance felt like an episode of Raw. The ring collapsing was a good finish but they need to have a rematch and have a winner. The last man standing match with the collapsed ring was different but it worked well for that kind of match. The Awesome Truth interference, makes Del Rio heel who capitalizes on an opportunity.

Its obvious the WWE is concentrating more on Survivor Series. With Kevin Nash returning and jumping Triple H, set up the Survivor Series match with Nash setting up a team to fight a Triple H created team. Will Cena and Rock be on team Hunter? Will The Rock get into with with Cena costing team Hunter the match? Survivor Series will live or die on The Rock.

When you’re in a relationship sometimes you need a kick in the ass to realize shit isn’t as sweet as you think. Maybe sensing the audience’s disappointment with the current product WWE decided to change for a while. WWE was on their toes with the Punk promo. The walkout had us wanting more, but then they reverted back to their comfortable ways.

Like most who avoid confrontation in a relationship I wasn’t going to talk about the on going problems with the program, I was going to say nothing in hopes that it would go away. I wasn’t in the most healthy relationship, I dated someone who had the communication skills of a snow pea. Fortunately, Kaz reminded me of my due diligence. So here is my review of the Monday Night RAW before the Pay-Per-View Vengeance.

John Laurinaitis starts the program off. The crowd boos as Ace introduces himself to the crowd. He says tonight marks the return of Rey Mysterio and the crowd pops. Returning to San Diego to see his doctor, Laurinaitis says. He won’t be here tonight. The crowd boo’s and Laurinaitis says he was just kidding. Ace talks about firing Jim Ross last week. Laurinaitis introduces Ross and out he comes we see footage from last week where Michael Cole led Alberto Del Rio and Ricardo Rodriguez in singing goodbye to Ross. Laurinaitis announces Cole and Del Rio vs. Ross and John Cena for tonight.

Randy Orton, John Morrison and Sheamus vs. Christian, Cody Rhodes and Mark Henry. Orton and Cody brawl out of the arena. Sheamus and Christian fight in the crowd and Henry kills Morrison. The match was pretty good, all the feuds involved have a nice build up going into the PPV plus Morrison should reform the job squad.

John Laurinaitis is backstage The Bella Twins are backstage there hot and talk at the same time, I would love to shower with both of them at the same time. Ricardo Rodriguez (get a great pop) walks up and Ace shrugs him off. Alberto Del Rio walks up and isn’t happy about teaming with Michael Cole tonight to face John Cena and Jim Ross. Laurinaitis reveals that the winner of tonight’s match picks the stipulation for the WWE Title match at Vengeance.

Eve vs. Natalya. Hot Eve Torres vs. Beth Phoenix for the Divas Title at Vengeance is announced. Im still on the fence on the hotness of Natalya. Natalya locks Eve in a submission but she fights out. Eve goes up top for a moonsault and nails it for the win. Its always the same match. Aren’t the Diva’s of Doom suppose to be the more powerful team? Yet always get bitches at the hands of Eve and Kelly.

CM Punk vs. The Miz. CM Punk gets a huge pop from the crowd. The Miz with R-Truth rap “U-Suck” on the way to the ring. I think I heard some spanish ad-libs thrown in as well. Miz taunts Punk on the mic about the beating at Hell in a Cell. Truth tells Punk he won’t be smiling when Miz kicks his ass tonight and he won’t be smiling at Vengeance. Triple H’s music hits and out he comes to watch CM’s back. Great back and fourth between Punk and Miz, Punk goes for the high knee but misses and lands out on the floor. Truth stalks Punk on the floor but Triple H runs over to make sure he doesn’t attack. Punk comes to the apron and drops Miz over the top rope. Punk springboards in with a clothesline for a 2 count.

Sometime after Johnny Ace appears and says there’s an “immigration problem” and Hunter has to come to the back with him. Triple H is escorted out of the building by immigration officials. Laurinaitis says his papers were incorrect or something. David Otunga appears beside with Laurinaitis and watches Triple H get escorted out. This nonsense took heat off a great match. Punk calls for GTS but Truth comes in for the save. Punk rolls Miz up for the win. After the match, Punk gets assault at the hands of Miz and Truth. Miz hits Punk with a Skull Crushing Finale.

Jack Swagger vs. Zack Ryder. Jack Swagger is lead to the ring by, WWE United States Champion Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero. Vickie says John Laurinaitis has given Swagger and Ziggler a shot against Air Boom’s tag team titles at Vengeance. Ziggs takes the mic and rips on the crowd, the promo was amazing. Ziggs is the shit. If you think other wise you’re wackjuice. Swagger asks everyone to stand so he can sing America’s National Anthem. Swagger starts singing and the crowd doesn’t like it at all.

Zack Ryder comes out to a decent pop because Ryder is internet famous. This match was a whole 3 or 4 moves. Ryder hits the Ruff Ryder for the quick win out of nowhere. Im just glad to see Ryder getting TV time. After the match, Mason Ryan comes out, Mason takes the mic and reminds Ziggler that they have a match. Its a DQ… Kinda fast, I get why this happend it was to put over Ryan. I really want to see these two mix it up, Mason Ryan is Cuzo Drew‘s favorite and Ziggs is just awesome. I think a it could be a great feud.

Alberto Del Rio and Michael Cole vs. John Cena and Jim Ross. Ricardo Rodriguez begins the introduction for Alberto Del Rio as the WWE Champion drives into the arena now the pop was huge but I expected the crowd to go crazy. ADR is the hometown guy. John Cena pop might have been more impressive than ADR’s.

Cena starts things out for his team and Cole wants to start with him. Cena tags in JR and Cole runs his mouth, JR smacks Cole in the side of the head and knocks him down. Cole tags in Del Rio as Ross tags in Cena. Lets fast forward this since the youtube clip is below. Cena hits the Five Knuckle Shuffle. Del Rio gets up and tags in Cole. Cena pulls Cole into the ring. Cole begs Cena not to hit him. Cole one of the best heels in the company. Cena hits Cole with an Attitude Adjustment. Cena tags in JR. who puts the ankle lock on Cole for the win.

After the match, Del Rio pulls Cena out to the floor. Cena well he’s Cena and hits ADR with the Attitude Adjustment. Cena takes the mic and starts counting. I roll my eyes and say this is going to be the same match Cena had with the Miz. Cena continues the attacks and than counts to ten and announces that their match at Vengeance will be a Last Man Standing match for the WWE Title.

Closing Thoughts: Props to the homie Yelawolf, Yela is featured on the song used for Vengeance. I also get a kick on of the twitter usernames on the graphics. I don’t know how I feel about this RAW. I mean I will watch Vengeance this Sunday, but the feelings are mixed. It really is like trying to figure out whats next in your relationship. One day you look up and realize you’re apart, its like “wow how did this happen” and you don’t know how to get it back. you walk around in a daze and no matter what people say you don’t realize what others see. Don’t make me break up with you via text WWE only to call you weeks later to tell you I’m now dating TNA Impact Wrestling.

Hunter is asking the crowd if he should walk away they say NO.. yeah they booked this ALL WRONG. HUNTER WILL NOT QUIT. So tonight wrestling fans will we get 2 hours of complete shit. Hunter says he’ll wrestle a broomstick for 2 hours if he has to. Then says he’s wrestled some of the guys in the parking lot and a broomstick would give him a better match

John Cena makes his way to the ring. Cena runs down all his past bosses. Mike Aldamle gets mentioned.. Cena says he’s staying for the fans. Sheamus is now in the ring and says he’s sticking around cause Hunter didn’t seek legal action when he took him out… he just came back and kicked his arse.. he calls the guys who walked out LOSERS. Punk makes his way to the ring and jokingly takes credit for everything saying he made walking out look cool. Calls the roster hippies and says he’s staying cause he settles things in the ring.

Hunter says lets give the fans a show. he books Sheamus vs. Cena, Hunter is gonna ref. Punk is gonna do commentary…. I am a Huge CM Punk supporter but at what point did he become the same cliche he spoke ill over. The hooky over acting is part of the job I know I get it. Yet last night really didn’t have the Punk feel. The science he dropped months ago has done died. Out of nowhere Vince shows face, he breaks up the match.. this angle is fucking OVER AND DONE. Its super nice guy Vince… he calls Hunter’s management style a hoot. This is the shittiest, shit I have ever seen on WWE TV and Ive been watching WWE’s product since 1988.

Hunter is forced to step down..Vince isn’t taking over though… someone unbias will take over as GM. Johnny Ace is interim general manager. WAIT HOLD UP I thought the fucking computer witht he AOL chime is GM ….What the fuck? Who the fuck is COO now??? Cuzo Drew texted me saying THAT TERM WILL NEVER BE BROUGHT UP AGAIN..

Everyone returns to work. Morrison is allowed to speak it sucked. So because he spoke to Johnny Ace in a rude fashion, he has to face Christian. Morrison gets booed… I smile he’s fighting Christian walk tot he ring with who’s out with Ziggler, Rhodes & Swagger, the stable of awesome as I like to call them. That’s the best thing to come out of this shit show. Christian wins after Ziggler distracts Morrison setting up a spear. Zigzag after the match.. then a Cross Rhodes and a gutwrench Doctor bomb

Tonight Del Rio vs Punk and Orton vs Henry. Backstage Hunter interrupts Ace while he’s on the phone with his wife.. Johnny Ace best on screen character 2011.

Henry on the mic cause he’s awesome. Cody attacks Orton, Orton gets the win by DQ . The RKO for Cody is reversed as Cody shoves Randy into Henry who takes him out with the slam. I hope Cody/ Orton will be Orton’s next feud. Rhodes slides in after mark leaves and picks him up for a cross Rhodes.. then brown bags the Viper shortly there after. So the roster walks out cause its unsafe.. and the first two matches feature heel beatdowns…

Hot Eve Torres/ Kelly Kelly vs Rosa/ Tamina, how hot is Rosa? I love spanish girls, but even hot spanish butt didn’t make this match a pleasure to watch. Easily the worst women’s match in a while, botches all over the place. Eve and Kelly Kelly win. Divas of Doom look on from a tv in the back, they do not approve.

Johnny Ace come oue yet again. Cuzo Drew texted me saying this show NEEDS more talking. Alberto vs Cena is announced for Vengeance. Really? Cena’s 11th strap? Ace calls JR into the ring, we all know where this is going. Time to and fire JR. Air Boom/ Mason Ryan vs Dolph/Swagger and Otunga. Michael Cole dropped a possible name for Swagger and Ziggs “Agents of Change”. O YEA Air Boom has new music. Ryan pins Ziggler.Borne got a stinger it seems and is being looked at.. its prob legit and Let’s all give Borne some PMA. I think he is amazing to watch week in and week out.

Del Rio vs Punk… Is it a title match? Who the fuck knows. The announce team was too busy talking about other stuff. 2 minutes into the mach Johnny Ace is out, he stopped the match and now its Punk/Alberto vs the rehired Miz/Truth.

Anyone else notice the odd moment when the heels get DQ’d for doubling up on Punk odd because Charles Robinson was only up to a count of 1 when the bell rang. Now Hunter in a tshirt and jeans runs to the ring to even the odds. Guess who is back to active duty THE KINGS OF KINGS!!!!!

So now we get Hunter/Punk vs Miz/Truth at Vengeance… Cuzo Drews last response YEP FUCK THIS SHIT FUCK THIS SHIT

Closing thoughts: Let me just say what the fuck WWE. Last weeks’s walk off owned so hard. My ADHD was at level 15. Not since the Punk promo has my markdom had me wanting to tune in the next week. Instead of awesome we got a straight up dumpster fire. I get whole PG thing but a 6 or 7 year old kid watching this isn’t following and thinking its entertaining? You guys really blew all the CM Punk heat yall had 3 months ago. The system needs to change. Its not the writers or the talent its the stupid system..

I wonder when they wrote this weeks RAW did they say this is a good idea? They probably all sat around a table and were like you know what fuck these people. I spoke with a ton of people via twitter about all the endless possibilities. FCW scabs would have been genius, plus it helps get the farm club more exposure. “Solidarity Rallies” out side of arena’s each week with Otunga and Christian being Union reps would have made great TV.

Also I think we got all were going to get out of Punk since then hasn’t done shit since his Sumerslam loss.

Hunter/Punk vs Miz/Truth at Vengeance…That’s the worst main event I ever heard and I really enjoy the work Miz/Truth bring to the table, but They’re not main eventers. Granted Miz was champion and Truth is always money but something feels off to me with this current generations idea of Main Eventers. Here’s how u define a main eventer, would you pay money to see this person perform? Now, is the Miz a main eventer? Here’s who are main eventers, Cena, Hunter, Udertaker and The Rock when he feels like wrestling this year. Lets not discredit Punk and Orton, the rest are borderline but more than anything else is the WWE logo…put whoever you want out there as long as the logo is real big so the casual fan says “oh wrestling gonna be in town”. The only exceptions ever were Bruno, Andre, Hogan, The Rock, Stone cold maybe Savage and for 5 minutes Warrior. Every other top guy is there because of the machine. Housewives across America that’ve never watched a show knows those names.

The only shining light on Mondays RAW was hearing Punk reference my good friend Rob Naylor. Naylor does color commentary for a ton of Indy feds. Naylor is a true wrestling fan who’s knowledge of the business is endless. Naylor gang for life!!!

After the match Mizzzark Henry came out held the heavyweight title in the air. Its good to see Henry rubbing shit in Orton’s face.. Orton and Henry exchange punches. Johnny Ace is out with security to separate them seconds. We see a promo video hyping the return of the Big Show before Mark Henry’s match with John Morrison. Yea I know I was like WTF Morrison. Henry made fast work of Morrison killed him dead in minutes.

Alberto, Christian, Cody, Dolph, Swagger, Otunga and Vickie hit the ring to announce they are contemplating legal action against Hunter. Hunter tells them to just shut up and fight in the main event. The Main event is a 6 on 6 against Cena, Punk, Air Boom, Sheamus & Mason Ryan. ITS TAG TEAM MANIA TONIGHT ON RAW.

We see Miz/Truth’s beatdown on Alberto, Cena, Punk, and the referee from last night and their apology from Youtube. Apparently there filing a lawsuit.

Divas of Doom Vs Kelly/Eve happened again for the 86th week in a row. Kelly and Hot Eve Torres take the action to the floor a sceaming Kelly has to be pulled off her leading to no contest. Remember when RAW had Diva bikini mini pool matches… Johnny Ace is apologizing to Hunter, Ace wants an apology back for getting knocked down? Ace then says he wants Hunter to “stand up to the talent”. My common sense is tingling so that means something going to happening involving the entire roster.

Jindhar Mahal is out to cut a promo in Indian… Kanye Shrug…Santino is back and I can give a shit less. It amazes me how over this fuck head is. They go back and forth with Santino speaking fake Indian..shit we all should file a suit for sitting through that bullshit segment. Mahal has potential, he just needs to get into the groove but I heard they are done with pushing him already.. clearly that’s the case since he got buried by Santino in seconds.

The 6 on 6 was great. The ending sequence with freaking everyone hitting finishers and big moves till Sheemus hit Ziggs with the Brouge Kick for the win. Cuzo Drew texted me saying “In 15 years Mason Ryan will be world champion” I laughed at that one.

Remember when Punk was raging against the machine? Whatever happened to that?

So Hunter walks to the ring…Before I forget tweet me your response to this question. At what point did Hunter become the baby face COO? Did the shift occur when the Heels decided to fuck shit up on his watch? WWE creative really took a different route with this COO position. I think all wrestling fans are used to the scumbag bosses ie Mr McMahon and NWO Eric Bischoff. Anyway Wade Barrett is the spokesperson for the Smackdown heels great to see he still has a career. If you remember Wade tried to shut Raw down with that shitty Nexus stable a year or so ago.

Referee Mike Chioda speaks his piece and says he’s unhappy due to all the referee violence. “23 yrs and now I’m afraid to come to work”. Beth speaks on behalf of the Diva’s saying “all the divas are scared something could happen to them too”? Really Beth? Really? You kick the shit out of the men nothing is going to happen to you, had this been the attitude era a rape angle or some sort of sexual assault storyline would take place, but this is PG WWE so women are safe.

Jerry “Anal Bleed” Lawler makes an appearance speaking just on behalf of himself and says much like his ass the show is spiraling out of control… but says it’s not Hunter’s fault.. he agrees with Punk that it’s someone behind the scenes pulling the strings. Couch couch Mrs Hunter and Vince cough cough.

LAWLER QUITS, EVERYONE FOLLOWS Booker T and Michael Cole leave. Even Justin Roberta leaves..Punk/Cena/Orton aren’t even out there mind you.. EVEN THE CAMERA MEN ARE LEAVING ONE BY ONE

Hunter looks to good ole Jr, is Jr staying? Nope he’s gone. Johnny Ace is on the ramp shaking his head in disgust. Hunter throws his hands up and mouths I’m sorry to the crowd and that’s where we fade out.

Closing thoughts: How great would it be if Smackdown was a rerun? Since Smackdown is on Friday this would have been an awesome cliff hanger till next week’s RAW. Now if you remember I called this a few reviews back. Do I think it will last long NO. WWE should invest sometime with this “walkout”. Since Punk, Sheamus, and RKO were not involved, I can see tension building with them and the rest of the roster. I would love to see all the FCW workers, work as scabs. Imagine the Superstars protesting outside of arena’s all over the country.

The show starts and we see Miz and R-Truth had brought tickets to see the show but Laurentis came down with security and had them escorted out of the arena. I’m sure that’s the last we’ll see of them.

Sheamus vs. Christian: Heres how this match went. Christian does all the wrestling, Sheamus HULKS UP powerslam for two. Sheamus then attempted the razor edge which Christian reversed to set up the killswitch before Sheamus countered with the brogue kick. Decent show opener.

Sin Cara vs. Sin Cara: AKA The Lucha Off AKA The rudo vs the tecnico AKA doppleganger city AKA the crowd gave two fucks less. They should have cared this was a great match, readers please start watching Lucha libre. We all have a spanish friend who can translate plus Telemundo is free on your TV. I’ll refer to each guy as Sin Cara Blue and All Black Everything Sin Cara. This match had a whole bunch of flippy do’s and flying head-scissors. All Black Everything gets put on the floor with a senton dive, which leads to a sequence of both guys bumping heads. More flying head-scissors and flippy do’s occur until All Black Everything tries his third powerbomb of the night but Sin Cara Blue pulls out a rollup for victory. Highlight of the Match Booker T screaming Sin Cara Negro.

WWE Tag Team Title Match Air Boom vs. Jack Swagger & Dolph Ziggler: Why do I have the feeling this match is just going to be another segment in the Swagger-Ziggler feud that never ends and no one wants to see? Tag Team wrestling is still a reality in the WWE lets not jinx this. Fun match great back and fourth. Kingston gets rid of Swagger but Dolph hits Kofi with a Zig Zag to put him out. Kofi trips up Dolph and Bourne flips Swagger off the top with a hurricanrana and pins him to keep the titles. Again the highlight goes to the WWE announce team as Cole says Air Boom is the worst team name since Harlem Heat.

Intercontinental Title Match Cody Rhodes vs.John Morrison: The dude had an “impromptu” match against John Morrison…really John Morrison if your going to have a filler match at least use Curt Hawkins or someone who has talent. Like I have said for weeks now Cody Rhodes is the truth. Rhodes put Morrison in the Figure Four leglock as the crowd chanted “Woo” in honor of Ric Flair. Morrison came back did some flippy do’s. The announcers barely put Morrison’s offense. Rhodes pinned him after an Oklahoma Roll to win at the 7 minute mark.

FUCK YEAH THE VINTAGE IC TITLE !!!!!!!!! Cody Rhodes did what CM Punk promised to do but never did, a throwback to our childhoods. He even used the white strap its the little details people.

World Heavy Weight Title Match – Hell in a Cell: Mark Henry vs. Randy Orton: You know what pisses me off sometimes the Champion walks out first. I hate when that happens, the champion should come out last. WWE likes to make the fans wait to do the babyface pop. Im not with all that. We all knew this match wasn’t going to be a technical match, Henry dominated a bulk of the match. Super RKO hit the RKO. Henry kicked out at two. The crowd went nuts as Orton set up for the punt, but Mark popped up and hit the World’s Strongest Slam for the win.

After the match Henry grabbed the steel chair, trying to break Orton’s ankle, with a Vader Bomb, but Orton moved. He picked up the chair, chair shot to the back as well as another to the chest. Then he hit another shot to the back as Henry collapsed. Despite two clean finishes, the wrestling gods will give us Henry/Orton 3. I cant lie I enjoyed this match we know its all about raw strength on Henry’s part and Orton has been booked really strong during his babyface run. WWE creative is doing a great job of putting Henry over. Most likely this feud will go till Vengeance. If Sheamus gets added to the title hunt Smackdown will have the more interesting title matches.

Divas Championship Match Kelly Kelly vs. Beth Phoenix: Let me just tell you how it ends since we all just look at Hot Eve Torres the whole time. Natalya and Eve get into it on the outside and Natalya slams Eve into the barricade. Beth distracts the ref and Natalya slams the mic into Kelly’s face. Beth hits the glam slam and the victory. Why not just give her the win in her home town at Night Of Champions?

Triple Threat – Hell in a Cell WWE Championship Match: John Cena vs Alberto Del Rio vs Cm Punk: I like to refer to triple threats as 3-way dances. ECW, ECW, ECW!!!! Great match with a ton of spots I especially liked the early spot where Cena whipped Punk, Punk saved himself in the corner and turned to point and laugh at Cena.

The finish! Almost every match on this show has had a great finish. This was some more evil heel genius. Ricardo introduces the pipe, lures Cena outside and Cena is LOCKED OUT. The clever thing was that Alberto and Punk continued to go back and forth but then Alberto pipes the crap out of Punk and WINS. Seconds later Awesome Truth are beating the shit out of wrestlers, referees, cameramen, the mysterious lowering of the Cell adding another layer of intrigue. I loved the whole sequence of events from Miz and Truth surrendering to police and Hunter going ham on a defenseless Awesome Truth. I wish cage matches had the same allure like they once had. But this was an exciting ending to enjoyable PPV the card wasn’t great like the three PPV’s past but the ending made up for it.

Closing thoughts: What was the point of bringing back Kevin Nash? What was the point of putting the title around Cena’s waist just to make him lose it 2 weeks after he won it to the same man he took it from? heres a fun fact 7 WWE Championship Changes since July 17, 2011, that’s 7 Title Changes in only 77 Days. What the hell is wrong with the creative team? At least Henry is still the champ.

Triple H starts the program and explains why Truth and Miz were fired, because of their words and actions from Night of Champions. Ziggs and Vickie come out to complain about guest host Hugh “Wolverine” Jackman interfering in Ziggs match last week. Seconds later Cody Rhodes hits the ring cuts a promo about Randy Orton bashing him with a ring bell on Smackdown.

Christian comes out to piss and moan to Hunter. Christian does his best impression of Sly Stallone from the movie F.I.S.T and attempts to organize the heels into filing a massive lawsuit against WWE. Captain Charisma being the selfish scumbag we all know and love tells Hunter he will forget the whole thing if he gets just one more match. Because HHH is snarky Hunter decides to book Christian against Cena (non-title), Orton on Friday and Sheamus at Hell In The Cell. While all this nonsense took place Dolph Ziggler has to face Zack Ryder while Cody has to defend the Intercontinental title in a 10-man battle royal. I blame Punk for all the wrestlers speaking their minds in these shoot style promos.

The first match of the night was the Intercontinental Title 10-Man Battle Royal. Remember when the IC title was the cooler title than the heavy weight? Shit I do… I use to backyard wrestle and could give two flying shits about any other title. The IC belt was held by the best of the best. Any way there are a whole bunch of workers in this match so allow me to run through this match fast. Drew McIntyre who hasn’t had a push in what seems like years gets eliminated immediately because he’s a jobber and cant sell a t-shirt. Heel Sin Cara the taller one runs out and yanks out baby-face Sin Cara the smaller one out of the ring and we get week two of a lucha off. Justin Gabriel and Alex Riley get eliminated by the machine Sheamus, Ezekiel Jackson tosses Daniel Bryan and John Morrison at the same time.

Do we even care for this match? NO…Ted Dibasie get tosses out by Cody Rhodes because Rhodes has more charisma in his pinky than Ted does in his who being. Jackson attempts to get rid of Cody but Rhodes is clearly going to win this. Jackson is gone. Sheamus dominates as usual an attempts the Razor’s Edge but Christian runs down to the ring distracts Sheamus, Cody avoids the Brogue Kick and use the mask as a weapon for the WIN.

Backstage has David Otunga and John Laurinaitis are talking about how Otunga might have to put that Harvard degree to good use. If my wife was Jennifer Hudson I’d play wrestling lawyer too. He reminds me of IRS and Right To Censor’s Steven Richards.

Michael Cole gave us an update on the King’s condition. Cole said King has anal bleeding? @jonconnormusic tweeted “How does one say that with a straight face”? Booker T’s reactions to anal bleeding is priceless.

Kelly Kelly and Eve vs Beth Phoenix and Natalya. Hot Eve Torres is sporting bangs and I don’t know if I like the change. Its the same match week in and week out a bunch of sweet butts jumping around. The most impressive move I have ever seen a diva do was Natalya doing this leg submission, that stretched out on Hot Eve Torres on her back. Phoenix hits Kelly Kelly from behind, with a Glam Slam for the victory.

Mark Henry destroys the Big Khali, giving him the World’s Strongest Slam. John Cena vs Christian Del Rio and Punk were on commentary for this match.

Cena’s facial expression and reaction to to HIAC reminds me of my goddaughters first experience with Christmas light. At the time she was 8 months old and was mesmerized with by the twinkle. Anyway Cena cut a quick promo in hyping up the HIAC match. The PPV poster has the tag line “John Cena goes to hell” with his face surrounded by Flocka flames. Cena gets the win over Christian, SHOCKER. Del Rio and CM Punk are commentating that’s a win huh folks. The jabs back and fourth between Punk and ADR made a shit match watchable.

WWE rewards Zack Ryder with TV time, for getting WWE more mainstream publicity. Ryder really should tweet Weapon X a thank you. Hugh Jackman made Ryder look money on last week’s show. the was a great look for both WWE and Ryder. With a Jack Swagger assist Dolph Ziggler keeps his title. AirBoom come out to help Mr WOO WOO WOO YOU KNOW IT BRO.

Otunga is backstage with Cody, Ziggler, Vicky and Christian giving them legal counseling. He cites “unsafe working conditions” if I wanted legal jargon type television I would watch Franklin and Bash on TNT starring Zack Morris…great show watch it. Honestly this has been the most interesting thing Otunga has ever done in his short wrestling career.

CM Punk vs Del Rio had a great back and forth. CM Punk coming out winner with a clean finish was a head scratcher. Meanwhile the cell comes down, Del Rio’s ringside announcer Ricardo Rodriguez is locked in with Cena and Punk. Anytime Ricardo gets TV time its awesome. CM Punk and Cena try to hit each other but Del Rio comes out of nowhere and bawse’s with a chair.

Closing thoughts: I liked the ending alot. It was great to see ADR be the aggressor, after being super Cena’d at last months PPV. This attack mby Del Rio makes him look stronger. Do I think Del Rio still needs the the strap to be over… YES. I will go into detail about the mainevent next week. As much as I clown Otunga, I want to see what goes on with this angel. If the heels strike and to a protest or some wacky shit like that I think all of the IWC (Internet Wrestling Community) will lose its shit. Its genius if you think about it.

This past weekend 9/24/11 at a House Show in El Paso, Texas. Punker ends the show by paying tribute to Eddie Guerrero in his hometown.
