Basically, Octavian's being an asshole towards Antony. If I've got it figured out right. Octavian wanted Antony to marry Octavia because everyone knows they don't care about eac,h other and therefore the marraige is known to be purely political. So, everyone will know that they are working togather. If Antony had married Atia it would have been seen as a marraige of love, not politics. That would have been seen as a vulnerability between Octavian and Antony. At least, that's Octavian's reasoning. Personally, i just think he didn't want Mark Antony as his stepdaddy. That and he wanted to screw him over in light of the whole "hide Herod's giant bribe from Octavian" issue.

Orton and Edge were having issues going into the Rumble.......so it's just a carry over of that. Yeah I remember their issues, but this was for the titles. You'd think they'd be able to put that in the past.

OK Edge, why the FUCK would Orton hit you with the belt? On the other hand, looks like Shawn picked a few things up from Eddy.

You mean the King of the Wuhld King BOOKAHHHHHHH?

This actually has been a pretty good match. Nice ending.

Nice over the top fall by Khali! He CAN bump....kinda.

So much for the Masterlock Challenge. He will do what the Big Show could not!!

Well, the crowd seems to like watching them roll around the ringside at least. They'd better not go more than 10 minutes at the ABSOLUTE most though. Anything more than that and you're treading towards Brock/Goldberg territory.

Send more security or they'll keep staring at each other! See, the security drove them to fighting each other. They had to justify paying all those guys.

Maria has gotten a helluva lot better in the past few months. Props to her. Oh, her lady parts! I volunteer to massage them until she feels better.

Now THIS should be a falls count anywhere match. Let Crazy do a balcony dive off somewhere.

I'm so glad Melina's here to provide exposition for the audience. We'd be lost without her.

Well, we know who would get to knock Punk out of the match in the grand finale if he does get in.

Waitwaitwaitwait. There's EIGHT in this year's match? That's going to be an awfully busy match.

They'll have one of these guys along with Punk. I'm sure one of the other two guys will be a big bumper. More likely to set up a final battle with MnM and Hardys anyways. Since WGTT doesn't seem to be a great issue right now. I'm not terribly familiar with Punk's work outside of the E, but would he really fit the bill? He seems more like a mat wrestler to me with a smattering of "ooh" and "aah" moves to keep the crowd in it. Edge can work a ladder match, and I'm fairly sure Booker can hold his own (I don't remember him doing a lot of ladder matches and/or hardcore matches in WCW and apart from the brawl with Austin don't remember a lot of it in the E either). What big bumper would the audience buy in the MitB match? Maybe Kendrick or London? They'd have to drop the belts this week in order to squeeze in to the remaining qualifying matches. Punk worked 90 minute ladder matches all over the world and a great deal of hardcore matches and such. While his current gimmick doesn't suit too much, he's very much a brawler/high spot machine. Good to know. I really need to be less provincial in my wrestling perusal.

That was almost a CATASTROPHIC fuck up there.

Now why would they exclude one of these guys from the MITB match? They need more than one spot machine/high risk guy in the match, and both of them would fit the bill.

The demo was fun, but I've read that it's not real long. Any estimates on storyline length?

2002? Man, time flies. I laughed my ass off when he was trapped up against the ropes (by Austin and HHH?) and still swatted his gum. Perfect.

Mr. Perfect. A deserving HOFer. What year was his surprise RR appearance? '03?

Ashley with the daring outfit....When Sable wore it almost 5(?) years ago.

Now THIS needs a "what?" chant.

I'm pretty sure Biehn's going to get a gruesome death in Grindhouse. He dies in everything, doesn't he? Even when he survived Aliens, he still ate it in stasis before Alien 3.

Man, can you imagine a Khali/Giant Gonzalez match? The first one to sell properly loses.
