Alright, time out.

Recommended Posts

Alright, so I'm sitting here watching RAW and the whole show that just took place has totally baffled me.

 

Okay, so Austin backed out because he didn't want to lose to Mark Henry and Coach. So now Coach has Goldust in his corner, and Vince was going to have him face Funaki to see who the number one announcer is in the WWE, but they kicked his ass. Then Batista decided to show up to fight Coach. And then Vader came out and beat up Batista. And JR isn't even invovled in the scenario anymore and he's still fired. And Christian quit, but he's on TV because he wants to finish the angle (?). And Torrie Wilson's gone. And Kamala, Jim Duggan, Jimmy Snuka, and Jerry Lawler all beat up Rob Conway.

 

I would comment more, but after that Kurt Angle run-in at the end, I don't even fucking care about this show. I think I'm going to take a break from watching it for a couple weeks.

 

O. Kay.

This is by far the weirdest day of wrestling EVER. I'm still not completely sure on what EXACTLY I saw today, or why I saw it, or who's leaving and who's staying.. fuck this is confusing.

This entire promotion is turning into WCW. PPVs are booked with ludicrous results, Wrestlers walking out, shows being re-booked the night before, has-beens being pulled out of returement, etc.

Oh, how quickly we forget the utter weirdness I call "last summer".

God, I'm just glad I was armed with the Batman set and decided to watch that tonight.

 

But I gotta agree with LoadedGlove here today is a very weird and albeit busy news day in the world of professional wrestling.

"Anything can happen in the WWE"

 

I propose we amend this with "... and everything bad usually does"

 

Murphy's Law as applied to the WWE.

I just want to know how Kamala, Ko Ko B. Ware, and Jim Duggan are "legends", while Savage is blackballed?

 

Your kidding right?

Duggan and Koko have been good guys, Macho Man is a tad bit insane.

No, I'm not kidding. Duggan, Kamala, and Ko Ko B. Ware are good midcarders from the 80's, but nothing more. How can they be put into the legend status of guys like Hogan and Savage?

 

Then again, they got more charisma than guys like Masters and Coach(yes he's a wrestler for some reason in today's climate). I guess next week we'll have the legendary Brooklyn Brawler show up along with the greatest gimmick of all-time Red Rooster. This is just LAME!!! and I like Duggan, Ko Ko, and Kamala, but leave that stuff for 24/7.

So I was offline the past few days and came back to see all this crazy stuff that has happened...

 

-JR is out and Joey Styles is in

-Christian quit the company

-Austin walked out after being asked to job to the fucking Coach

-Mark Henry, Vader and Goldust have all returned

-Torrie may or may not be gone

-Jerry Jarrett shows up at WWE headquarters

 

... and then it hit me. In the past I would say WTF and would be eating this stuff up with a spoon. But in reality, I just don't care anymore... at all. I have been a fan for nearly 20 years, through thick and thin. Now the WWE could fold up and I wouldn't bat an eyelash.

 

I think my love for wrestling is officially gone now. I thought I would be around forever, or at least go out with one of those long letters about how I've given up (which this is sort of turning in to) because of my outrage over something. But in fact, I am just disappointed. I have no faith in them to deliver any thing of memorable or lasting quality and feel that the product will be mired in mediocrity from this point forward...

 

and I don't care. Thanks Vince.

No kidding. But, I wonder how this would all look and feel while on some killer drugs. You know, like the stuff the booking team must be on right now.

Man.....when they may screw Hogan/Austin's Mania appeal more than Hogan/Flair in the early 90's it is quite scary. I mean I could see dicking around Flair's appeal because of the NWA, but Austin brought them back from the dead and he's being treated like some 90's jobber. Austin should just stay home.

I've been out of the news loop for a couple of weeks and didn't even see a second of Raw the other night. I don't think I've ever been so confused by just seeing a PPV card on the pre-show.

My only hope is that Maria whatever does some lesbian action on TV... good lord, she's a pretty woman.

You've obviously never heard the stories about Savage and a 14 year old Stephanie McMahon

So has WWE hit rock bottom yet?

 

No B Movie actors that aren't also wrestlers have won either of their top titles, so no, not yet.

But doesn't Cena have a movie in the works?

Bolded the point that makes the Cena comment null.
