    Random thoughts for 5 in the morning

    Saturday, August 16, 2008, 05:18 AM EST [General]

    So I'm sitting here plotting another column for those pesky wrestling news sites, but I have some other stuff on my mind wrestling wise.

    I watched most of Smackdown tonight and it was very meh to be honest. Only matches I really dug were Hardy/Benjamin and Kozlov vs. Festus.

    Kozlov/Festus was a great brawl and I would actually pay to watch them just beat the **** out of each other. Kozlov is quickly becoming my favorite part of Smackdown. Ironic considering I hate the Russians and even more ironic we're inching towards nuclear war with them. But hey that only means Kozlov will be getting nuclear heat (no pun intended...or maybe I did).

    I was dissapointed and pissed to hear that Stevie Richards, Colin Delany and Cherry were all canned. ECW is in desperate need of needing talent and you can half the roster in a month. Granted Stevie would always get jobbed out and they only hired Colin to have him get trounced every week, but its better then the other no names they keep calling up.

    Speaking of no names, why the hell is Colt Cabana now Scott Goldman? I would love to know who comes up with these names. I would love to know why Vince signs off on said names.

    Colt Cabana you can market. Scott Goldman sounds like a tax attorney.

    And Cherry...poor innocent Cherry. Damn you all to hell.

    I agree with pretty much all you say.



    This weeks SD! was pretty terrible, I especially hated the ending with the Edge/Vickie angle.



    The Koslov/Festus match ended too soon in my opinion. If they're going to main-event it, I suggest they make it longer than 2 minutes, because that's more or less the time it took for a head butt to happen. Still, it was good to see these two fighting.. I wonder who Koslov will lose against. Guess it's down to the WWE Writers to think of someone..



    Hardy/Benjamin was definetly the highlight! I'm happy with the push that Benjamin's getting, and I thought these two worked excellent together. You never knew who would win as it went both sides. Again, an interruption by M.V.P got a DQ. I didn't want that, but I knew it was too soon for Benjamin to lose the title.



    Stevie Richards I loved, and this was a real upset for me to hear he was released. He's been one of my favourite wrestlers for ages, and all he needed was a good push to make him popular again.



    Colin Delaney, well, under his gimmick, he was going no-where, but I've seen him in ROH and other indys, and he's a great wrestler. I don't know why WWE had to change him completely.



    Cherry has been my favorite Diva lately, and she's one of the most popular ones.. What on earth was the point of releasing her?



    It was good to see Colt debut but under Scotty Goldman? I just laughed!



    I also liked seeing Kenny back, at least he's not in development, because I don't think he belonged there.. I'm just waiting for Drew McIntyre to return now!



    Also, who was the other debuter? I can't remember his stage name, but he debuted against Big Show, and lost in a minute..



    Tbh, I don't see why they have to throw away the veteran, good wrestlers just for new ones. Surely they can all stay?
