The Legacy opened another exciting show this week.  WWE Champion, Randy Orton (love saying that) called us all cowards. First, we're hypocrites and tapeworms courtesy of Chris Jericho and now we're cowards? How ever will we bounce back? (Eyebrow raise).  He made us take notice of the work he did on Shane McMahon last week as they headed to the ring.  Randy made it VERY clear that the WWE revolves around him and the sooner we, AND Batista, accept that the better off we'll all be.  Batista anxiously hurried to the ring and Randy informed him that while he'll NEVER win the WWE Title, there IS something he WOULD receive: a coveted invitation to join the Legacy!  He said, like Ric Flair he needed an "enforcer."  What? What is this, Top Gun? He wanted Batista to be his wingman???  I think the pressure of everything is getting to Randy. I love Randy but the whole appeal of the the Legacy is to get 2^nd and 3^rd, possibly 4^th generation in there, not outsiders.  Slim pickings sure, but that's how I feel. However, if that is the direction Randy, whom I trust, wants to go in than I'm behind it 100%.  On the other hand, he may have extended the offer knowing full well that Batista wouldn't go for it. I do agree though that a fourth member is needed.  His mind is ALWAYS turning over new reasons for doing what he does. That's why I love him!

Batista swiftly refused the champ with loathsome feelings.  Honestly, I have someone else in mind to be acquired by the Legacy but you're ALL not going to like it so I'll keep it myself! But it's a GOOD one! 

Vickie Guerrero came out angry about being called predictable. That's all it takes? So, all the other **** she's called doesn't upset her but being called "predictable" does?  But this is what REALLY calls into question Vickie's capability of being an effective, good GM: She said she didn't care about the condition of Randy, the Legacy or Batista! What the? Really?  You have the current WWE Champion, an irate Animal and two future tag team champions in the ring and she DIDN'T care? What kind of leadership is that? Predictability brings order, justice and reliability. Isn't that why RAW has gone through more GM's because the others didn't have the balls to BE predictable?

Whatever...

A match was made. Batista faced Ted and Cody and Cody's quick wit outsmarted the Animal causing Batista to get disqualified.

Jillian & Divas Champion, Maryse squared off against Mickie James & Kelly Kelly.  KK brought the heat I must say. She was impressive Monday night.  Maryse tried but lost the battle quickly. Mental Note: Learn French, too!  I heard Jerry Lawler make a comment and he didn't know just how true it was: "So many Divas, so little time!" Yeh, no kiddin'.

Cody went seemingly MIA in between all of this. Ted and Randy went searching for him.

Again, Chavo forced HIS will on Vicki. But you know? SOMEONE should!  If Vickie had HER way, she'd have Edge kidnapped, brought to RAW, put him a match against Randy for the WWE Title, pull some bologna, and take the title back to SmackDown as some form of punishment!   Actually, Edge IS the Ultimate Opportunist and Vickie hated being called predictable...NO!  That would never happen...right? RIGHT?

In other news: Mr. Kennedy will be back soon!  Yes. I can't wait. I've missed him.

Carlito faced the Shawn Michaels Wrestling Academy taught, THE Brian Kendrick. Maybe being drafted to Raw wasn't such a bad thing for Kendrick.  However, I do think he should change his image a bit. Cocky is done by EVERYONE especially the Miz...Huh? That would be interesting.  Carlito gave great effort but TBK got the pin.

The Big Show clomped out to eye spy the Cena/Miz Special Exhibition Match. Continuity is another issue I have with the WWE. But whatever, that's another blog for another day.  John Cena came out focused solely on Show.  He could've cared less about the Fizz. The Fizz, yes, done on purpose, again, ran his trap insulting Cena and his movie/music accomplishments when he has neither.  He said Cena so many times I thought the audio was put on repeat! The Fizz hammered away on John's back but John was lookin' good considering.  Vickie stopped the match because SHE thought Cena wasn't "fit enough" to face Slow, also on purpose. 

After Ted was taken out by Batista while searching for Cody, Cody and Randy hatched a small plan to get Batista before he picked them off one by one. Better to be the hunter than the hunted.

Santina is now a lesbian??

What was Hornswoggle DOING in that closet anyway?

Batista attacked and trapped Cody...another one down.

Beth pressing Santina over her head was the most impressive thing I've seen in a long time! But she's got a lot of pent up rage, man!

Cena did a brief interview with Josh and told us ALL that he'll "adapt and overcome": doing what he does best.  He's going to Judgment Day to win!  I believed him! 

I think Matt should pull a Randy Orton and get some legal action going if the B.O.D. won't listen.  I also think Matt should be United States Champion! Why? Cause I'm just crazy like that. However, Kofi would look mighty fine sporting the belt too. So tough.

Randy, alone, tried once more to reason with Batista by calling off the match because it made no sense to him.  Batista wasn't having that and rushed to the ring.  Randy received not one but two Spinebusters.  Eventually, the Legacy DID come to the rescue of their leader but to no avail. The Animal, like a lion, seething with rage, was all too ready for the ambush.  Loved when Batista threw the steel steps, btw. Wow! 

But, if Batista thinks the end is in sight? He'd better think again.  This is just the beginning. Once a fourth IS chosen, things will never be the same again.

The Peep Show rules!  Hey, umm...the Dirt Sheet???

I can't wait for SmackDown! Hee hee. Talk to ya Saturday!

This week's Focus Favorite: Batista

Flawless
