Downhome

Didn't Albert have a number of pretty solid matches with Kurt Angle and/or Chris Benoit? That's about the time that I really started to become a fan of the guy...and then WWE released him.

This was my favorite episode of the season as well, and maybe ever. When going back to watch, when Charlie is outside singing Wonderwall, he sings the following as Desmond is walking up to him: Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you/By now you should have somehow realised what you've got to do/ Because maybe, You're gonna be the one that saves me?

That was a nice hot main even, exactly what I wanted out of it. It looks to me like Batista did indeed turn heel, which is the way it should be. JBL was the MVP of this PPV tonight, since he really picked up the slack of Cole not being able to talk all that much. Heck, I didn't hardly hear Cole at all during the main event. So yeah, JBL really stepped up his game behind the desk tonight.

JBL - "I saw the Condemned premiere and it's the best action movie I've seen in years!!!" Cole - "You haven't seen the movie, it hasn't had it's premiere. You've only see the trailer." JBL - "Ummm, ummm, yeah, that's what I mean, the trailer. I saw that, it's great."

If you ask me, Lashley/Kennedy should never happen again. They didn't have any chemistry together at all. Bad, bad match, and the fans hated it.

Yeah, Cole's voice is just about gone. He's having a very rough night.

Not a bad show tonight so far guys. The Boogeyman didn't even look all that bad tonight.

EDIT

The deleted scenes are pretty cool. Here is your Office .gif for this week:

Yeah, me too.

Hey Vince, make Booker the champ right now and nevah take it off of him. All this segment needs is Goldust.

Oh my God, they did exactly what I said they might do in last week's SD thread!

From Jenna's MySpace blog:

Well, they got to keep that WrestleMania 24 match between Undertaker and Edge ready...streak vs. streak. I hope to God that they do that match next year. If they have Taker job this year, it will be one of the stupidest things they've ever done. Taker vs. Edge could be a huge match at WM next year, and it's already something that I'm looking forward to.

I know it would suck, but it wouldn't shock me if that match didn't even have a clear winner. It builds, only to have a DQ or a no contest because the partners start fighting one another. I hope that doesn't happen though - it's far too early for each pair to totally "explode". A slow burn for both of the feuds will do wonders.

I like how SD almost always gets the upperhand on RAW, but it's still the "b show".

The only man who will be able to end Umaga is Lex Luger, and his metal plate forearm!

I'm starting to think that we'll never see "an official break of the Masterlock".

If Vince would be willing to make fun of himself, what they should do is have Vince's guy lose the match. Vince tries to run away, but the guy with Trump stops Vince, brings him into the ring. They have Trump in the ring ready to cut Vince's hair off, and when he goes to grab Vince's hair, he just pulls it right off, a hairpiece. Then Trump goes on to shave what little hair is actually on Vince's head. It would be simple to do (just shave parts of it off before the match, but make sure to get a piece that looks just like his hair now), and to me would be a pretty funny moment. But, yeah, I highly doubt Vince would do that.

Why did they use a different "Money" song for Trump for the US version that's airing right now than they did on the one that aired everywhere else?

Yet another show where the "ECW Originals" don't win a single match. *yawn*

I was just about to post "woohoo, finally a CM Punk match that we all wont bitch about", and then out game Snitsky.

Here's more from PWInsider: That is a horrible, horrible number. No, it's not shocking that D2D pulled in a very low number, but still. I'm a little shocked that it did that badly.

Here is a picture of the new concept match:

Oh God, from PWInsider:
