We're going to delve right into this time boys and girls...

First up: What is up with Vladimir Kozlov attacking Triple H and Jeff Hardy the past few weeks? Is WWE trying to move him up the card by making the WWE Champion and the #1 contender look completely weak? I don't doubt Kozlov's strength or toughness, but he's has the personality of a dry sponge. He has the talent, but no personality and last I checked charisma was a BIG part of making it big in the WWE and WWE has released guys with great athletic talent because they had no charisma to speak of. Yet, Kozlov is suddenly getting shoved in our faces harder than he was before. I'm no fan of Triple H, but his program with Jeff Hardy shouldn't be interweaved with the charasmatic backhole known as Vladimir Kozlov.

Speaking of Jeff Hardy, I am truly praying for him right now. I'm starting to think that he's self-destructive. Just when it looks as if he's finally going to get the WWE or World Heayweight title he either does something or something happens to mess that up. The latest case being Jeff being denied entry onto a plane in Tennessee because he was alledgedly "noticably intoxicated." As far as I know alcohol does not fall under the WWE Wellness Policy so I don't believe that this would be his "third strike" that would mean his dismissal from WWE, but still. If I were this close to the edge of the cliff he's walking right now I'd be sure to make an extra effort to keep my nose clean. We're all rooting for you Jeff. Hang in there.

Was it just me or was Carlito's mic work on SmackDown some of the best he's done in a while. I really think that teaming him up with his brother was a really good move because he appears to have more energy than he's had in almost a year. I'm also glad he got rid of the corn-rows in his hair. The look did not suit him well, in my humble opinion.

Moving from SmackDown to Raw now I feel obligated to say that I was extremely disappointed with the show on Monday Night. I don't know what it was, but I just couldn't seem to get into the show. Maybe it was the fact that they started the show with the match that should have ended it. It was a good match and my hat's off to Jericho and Punk for a good match, but the show didn't really have much to offer, in my opinion, to keep my attention. I know some of you might be thinking that I was more interested in Monday Night Football, but here on the west coast MNF is live and Raw is on a three hour delay so the game was close to over by then so that's not it. I don't think it was "sub-par" in terms of the Superstars and Divas' performances, but the whole just seemed to carry a, for lack of a better term, "blah" feeling about it.

Moving on now, I must say I am really starting to dig the pairing of Rey Mysterio and Evan Bourne. I don't think they're going to made into a tag team (not yet at least) but they seem to work with the same type of mindset when they tagged. The whole "master and student" thing has been done before, but I really think that it's use here (if that's where it goes) would be a great move. As long as we don't have one turning on the other to break the angle. That ending has been over done to death.

That's it for this edition. Until next time...
