For those, like me, who have given up on WWE, here is the return of Chris "Lionheart/Y2J" Jericho on last Monday's RAW. Sadly this also means watching Randy Orton stumble his way through his limited mic skills...



Listen to that crowd pop...

Vince McMahon's secret love child has been revealed. Its Hornshwaggle, the midget wrestler and current Cruiserweight Champ. Which I cynically called several weeks ago. I am the genius. At least when it comes to predicting the idiocy that passes for writing with WWE currently. Oh and they're not letting Rey have a clean match against Khali. It'll be a triple threat with Batista added in. Can't make it seem like Rey could beat their Crapitacular Giant of Suck without help...

Which Spanish channel shows the most wrestling? Even if I can't understand the announcers its bound to be better than the garbage WWE and TNA push right now...

Flipped over to Smackdown! briefly and caught a promo for their new "find", Jesse & Festus. Which reminded me of the Good Ol' Boys I came up with for my fictional fed, cousins Chris and James Robert (Jim-Bob) Mayhew. Except their version are a pair of moron stereotypes. Finally! Finally I have actual proof that I'm smarter than the McMahon writer monkeys. Yay me...

I've been looking back over some of the things I've written about wrestling. And seeing how often my "fantasy booking" involved Benoit. About how one of my favorite things to hear from Taz as an announcer was "Wolverines gonna fly!" That my favorite three recent title wins were (in order) Rey Mysterio Jr, Benoit and Eddie. How much my dislike of MVP came from the fact that Benoit had to put over another guy, rather than getting a push he deserved. The goofy feud with Orlando Jordan, where Benoit kept making him tap out in ridiculously short amounts of time. And now its all tainted. Because this performer. This guy. A wrestler's wrestler. He did something monstrous. Just fucking monstrous. And thinking about wrestling and its all I can think about...

I'm thinking of altering my interests, taking down any wrestling ones. Retiring this avatar. Because I can't seperate my love for this entertainment (even when I'm yelling at it for being fucking stupid) from this...

Fuck. Here, [personal profile] demiurgent puts this better than me...

Everything is now looking like it was indeed a double murder and suicide. With Benoit killing his wife on Saturday, their youngest child on Sunday and then himself on Monday. This...this is just fucked. WWE is scrapping everything Benoit related. Additional tributes on ECW and Smackdown, everything off their web-site. Plus their is still more evidence of steroid abuse. Just fucked. I've got a tribute icon to Benoit on the one forum I still go to. I'm thinking of taking it down. I just don't know...

I don't think I can watch wrestling again for awhile.

Spent the afternoon hanging with Kevin, [profile] spoonyone and [profile] kafeixuesheng Not Watching WWECW's One Night Stand ppv. Instead we played some board games (including showing [profile] kafeixuesheng why we so rarely play Zombies!). We also watched a movie called Gamers, a mockumentary of a gaming group looking to break the record for longest ongoing campaign (at 23 years). I thought much of it (including some really mean gamer stereotypes) was fucking hilarious...

After starting and then stopping several attempts at pieces, I decided to change my original choice of [profile] creativedv8tion's interest in world domination to kinky sex and then to wrestling.

Steiner Brothers vs. Team 3-D? Well, this in theory should be cool. If the Steiners were 15 years younger each and the Dudleyz were able to drop 5 years each...

This is going to be a creaky match. Also Scott is still nuts. Freakzilla you so crazy...

So tonight they did rematch of the EcW Originals vs. the New Blood. Except this time it was Extreme Rules. So all 8 people were in and out of the ring, which was full of all kinds of trash. Sandman was caning people. Tommy's propping people in the Tree of Woe, then smashing chairs into their face with flying kicks. And the New Blood are doing the same. The whole thing finall ends with Elijah Burke doing some kind of flying tackle thing to drive Sabu headfirst into a corner table and then pinning him...

WHY THE FUCK WASN'T THIS THE WRESTLEMANIA MATCH?!?
lurkerwithout: (boxing kitten)
I wasn't expecting [livejournal.com profile] spoonyone and his brother Miles to order it this, because it looked likely to suck the ass. But at the last minute they decided to get it, so I went and hung out and watched with them...

With only 8 matches for a 3 hour, 45 minute show there was a lot of video clips and replays and padded entrances and exits. And thats in an event that featured Undertakers full Evil Druid Intro sequence...

Wrestling Highlights with Spoilers )
A couple good matches, but nothing I'd have paid the ppv price for. Especialy since the next ppv, Backlash looks to be an almost replay of this...

So I see WWE is wheeling out their next attempt at Wrestler to Movie Star. This time using Stone Cold Steve Austin. Which has a few things going for it. He's basically just doing the character he's BEEN doing for the last decade it looks like. And he's had SOME acting experiance outside the wrestling ring prior to this. Which means it is guarenteed to be less stupid than The Marine. Not that thats a high bar to aim for. Still its got Vinnie Jones as well. So I'll probably leave it on if I came across while flipping the channels...

I have been known, on occassion, to meander around while telling a story. Wandering off onto various tangents. And I tease [profile] creativedv8tion about his rambling voice posts. And [personal profile] the_paco often skips merrily along Non Sequiter way in the Town of WTF. And of course [personal profile] demiurgent has been known to take the long way round when writing for Websnark...

But there is one True King of The Rambling Story. And his name is Mick Foley...

Off of Online Onslaught

"From the "Not Exactly Shocking" File: WWE has decided to stay the hell away from the Hammerstein Ballroom this summer, and has rescheduled the ECW One Night Stand PPV for Jacksonville, FL. On one hand, I say: Smart move, because there are vindictive fans in NYC who would pay good money just to get on PPV and shit all over what WWE has done to ECW. There's a very good, very real chance that by June, RVD will be gone, CM Punk will be buried, and the announce team will be Todd Grisham and Brad Armstrong. WWE would be CRUCIFIED by those fans.

On the other hand, I say: SISSIES~!

Who called this happening? And how many months ago did I?"


Pity. Watching the hard-core, evil bastards that make up the East coast ECW fandom burn down the building was the only reason I might have bought this PPV...

PWInsider, WWE.com and WrestlingObserver.com have confirmed the passing of Mike Awesome.

According to the Observer article, "Friends were coming to his home in Tampa to pick him up and go out Saturday night at about 10:30 p.m. and he never answered the door and found him hanging in the home. It is believed the death was due to suicide pending results of the autopsy." DOIWrestling.com is reporting that, "according to a friend of Awesome, Awesome was suffering from diabetes and had lost alot of weight. While this is all speculation now, it looks like the disease caused depression, hence Mike taking his own life."

Mike "Awesome" Alfonso was 42.

If you could team Christopher "Fallen Angel" Daniels with any living wrestler who was not A.J. Styles who would you pick?
lurkerwithout: (boxing kitten)
Given the choice of ANY talent still healthy enough to be in the ring who would you have be in a new Four Horsemen? Keeping in mind that no matter what Ric Flair will be one...
