Hey all WUT UP. So I promised a few people who sent me messages I'd take some time and write a blog up. Just wanted to say its cool so many of you sent friend requests and I tried to accept all of them quickly. Sorry for those who had to wait a couple days this weekend cause I wasnt on wwe.com any at all to check and answer messages. Please ignore any grammar, spelling probs as I'm just writing this as quick as possible but still it may be a long blog cause I got a few takes so just gonna let it flow as if I'm speaking what's written I guess...So roll with it friends. All good? Good let's go.
I'll try and use this blog to answer some questions I got in several messages over th past few days like how was my weekend. OFF th hook in an answer. A bunch of my friends and I went out to this place where from 8 to 9 free margeritas. So of course we slurped a couple down left with some other friends who met up with us and hit Logans. Its a steak place. YUM. Good stuff and yes unlike some I eat meat. Love it. Had a great steak and potato. After that we piled in misty's suv and hit th club. Had fun there. Didnt stay til 2 when they close but it's all good. I ended up staying at her place instead of going home. That was the clean version of th happenings this weekend. Probably partied too much but whatev. I doubt we party as hard this weekend coming up cause 4th of july while I know alot really party hard that weekend we're pretty chilled around here. BBQ and watching fireworks sittin in lawn chairs shootin th breeze for most part.
Anyway that was my weekend then Sunday pretty lazy did play some online poker on pokerstars over at my friend's place.
Dont read below if ya havent watched wwe in a while or want recent events spoiler.
Ok guess I'll get to th rasslin stuff cause a few people wanted my take on stuff goin on. I almost wrote a blog last week rippin the draft and the Jim Ross move to smackdown but I'm coolin off about it. Chalk it up to it's something McMahon (and probably Kevin Dunn too) wanted for a long while. That's no secret to any long time fan. Plenty of examples over years to prove it.
Lets get to events in th now. The draft can be a great tool to get wwe through the boring parts of the year after wrestlemania is my take on it. Freshen shows up with new matchups and so forth. Seems that's what happened. The last two Raws have been entertaining even if I didnt like certain things that went down. It's about entertaining and it's been very watchable. The same can't be said always before that.
I guess since last night's Raw is most fresh on my mind I'll give my takes on some stuff that happened. I thought the opening segment Jim Ross appearance (and especially mid-south wrestling mention was great) well done. Looked like last minute script change day of show Edge's stooges I bet were to beat down Ross, but cooler heads prevailed and JR got a more dignified(somewhat) escorting out of arena instead. The Batista-Edge blow up to set up the surprise CM punk win was well done. That has Michael Hayes(even though suspended and smackdown writer) and Chris Dejoseph(fat oily guy) writing all over if I had to guess. I'm not a CM punk fan by any means as he is credited for bein such a great wrestler while cena dogged out YET punk wrestles much the same style as the divas such as Mickey james. Might be tough take for some fans to swallow but go objectively look at tonight's matches for comparison.
Tonight was first night they really showcased Jillian sing her own song it seemed. I thought the diva match was pretty good. After that when Rey Rey was hyped to appear I started thinking who will they pair him with as a feud and Santino came to mind so it was cool to be right on that one. Didn't take any smarts to figure it out with a babyface world champ(cm punk) and McMahon could care less for little rey so stick him with Santino for a little while.
I really think they missed a unique chance last night to get extended post-title win celebration out of punk's world title win as usually when a big title change happens it ENDS the show. So it woulda been cool to have seen more post-title win celebration, interplay backstage.
It seemed to me right before the hour one conclusion during the recap of what's gone on that Jerry Lawler looked legit happy the show was going as well as it was. The show seemed to really flow pretty good with few lulls.
Cena giving his in ring comments segment seemed totally written in part by Bruce Pritchard, throw JBL's appearance in the mix as well. I liked the "Martial Law" touch added to the storyline mentioning for second time on night there's no GM of Raw even if it's just a way to rehash Austin-McMahon morphed into Cena-JBL. Let's hope we don't have entire angle reproduced every week.
And how about that commercial for the Ric Flair DVD? Oh my god! I thought it was gonna be just rehash from other releases. Awesome it may not be. I knew the post-raw bit from Undertaker and Vince would be on it but looks like lots more too. I really really am lookin forward to seein this DVD documentary and hope it's not rehash of the horseman dvd even though it's kick butt. Speakin of Flairs Any chance we'll see Flair-Rhodes feud in reverse down the road(Reid-Cody)? That'd be fun since I'm a flair fan!
Speaking of which probably for most the lull point of raw was the tag champs match vs the jobbers but for my money it's that timeslot every Raw where they put the who cares moment but since I didnt see pay per view I wanted to see Cody rhodes spin on things and yes I'm totally diggin Ted Dibiase Jr. lovin me some Teddy. Smug heel. Still I'm hooked. Hope th writers got a back up plan when they bring Bob holly back cause sorry I aint cheering him. I'm for th Generation Next crew. Maybe Randy Orton will be their leader since Cody already seems like a mini-orton look-a-like? Anyway enough of me givin ideas back to th takes.
I know alot of people are likin kofi kingston but I'm not feelin it. He reminds me too much of Parker off Big Brother 9 so not likin him but then again I don't like Cade either so Jericho is having to carry alot of dead weight in that storyline right now.
Almost forgot to mention Jamie Noble backstage moment vs Kane. That so had Grewitz writing written all over it. Still gotta be happy WWE's british version of Lita got a part in the action(credit me please if you agree). MissKatie Lea. Maybe that should be Katie Lea-ta. Anyway Way to go. Seems like they're gonna develop her as one to possibly find trouble backstage. Ok cool direction.
The Main event had pretty decent intrigue as to whether JBL would be given the run or would they let CM Punk keep th belt. I totally loved CM mentioning the nameplate during his interview earlier. As a long time fan i dig little things like that. I guess with th big brawl at the end sets up cena,cryme tyme and cm punk vs jbl. Wonder who will be JBL's partners? I got some ideas but gonna keep em to myself. Ya know when Cena got kicked out of the arena and JBL was standing at the door? WHY didnt they pull back and have APA former partner Ron Simmons there in JBL's face to say "DAMN" to go to break. Coulda been a fun moment to exit to commercial with. Oh well.
Those are my takes on Raw so if ya liked readin my blog this week cool shoot my a message or whatever. It's all good. I'll try to reply as soon as possible. If you have AOL AIM look me up there my sn is angiedubs1
Told ya'll I'd update my blog and spend some time to write somethin up so I kept my word to my wwe friends and fans. Hope ya enjoyed it.
Guess that's all for this week, hit me up with any messages, requests, or questions as I try to get online every day or two. take care all.
later taters!
