BEARcast - WrestleCast 2014-12-03 with Fred "The Oracle" and Dustin

This week’s WrestleCast gets taken over with reaction to the CM Punk and Mr. McMahon interviews.  Drama this big demanded a special call to "The Doc-ta” to get Dustin’s take on all the news.  Besides, RAW was a bit boring and nowhere near as interesting as the two interviews.

WWE Power Rankings, RAW 12/01/2014

Coming at you from Tulsa, and let’s be real, RAW wasn’t that great.  What was great?  The CM Punk and Mr. McMahon interviews!  I’ll never bullshit you or waste your time.  You can take about 95% of what I said last week and apply it to this week.  Other than the return of the Anonymous GM, everything was the same.  Aside from a missing Mark Henry, the last three segments of RAW ran back the main event match at Survivor Series.  

Check out our special edition of the BEARcast - WrestleCast (www.worldofbear.com and subscribe on iTunes) for full coverage and breakdown of both interviews.  

The hardest part about this “Cyber Monday” was that I could have ranked only 10 slots or gone up to 30 if I wanted to break the Tag Turmoil and main event apart.  

I had to edit out a lot of Fred and my RAW recap to fit in more time for the Punk / McMahon interview coverage.  The only bit that needs to be addressed is that it is a tad ridiculous that the TLC PPV is being broken down to a T, a L and a C match prior to the big TLC match between Ambrose and Wyatt.  Also I believe there’s a “steel STAIRS” match between Big Show and Rowan.  Do I need to go further?  Steal f’n Stairs?!  Luckily Ambrose and Wyatt in a TLC match is enough to get me to watch.  Also, luckily TLC is only two weeks away so we don’t have to sit through many more odd promos by two guys who should be working together, not against each other.  But I’ll save that for our TLC preview.   

So with that, let’s get to the rankings as of this week’s RAW on 12/01/2014...

1. Bray Wyatt (7) – Bray wrestled and is setting up, what I assume is, the main event at TLC.  In a night of mishmash tags, Bray wrestled.
   
2. Dean Ambrose (6) – Okay, maybe he didn’t wrestle but are you going to be the grinch that is against Ambrose / Wyatt in a TLC match?
3. The New Day (HM) – Yes I know they made an appearance on Smackdown but who watches that?  Their debut didn’t blow me away but also didn’t fall flat on its face like Los Matadors.  Not only did they look like three black Jews ready for their Bar Mitzvahs but Big E is already laying the groundwork for hiding various items down his bra, I mean chest.  A chest that is secured with a supportive fabric that helps keep his breast muscles and fatty deposits that lay on top of the breast muscles in place.  If you want to call that a bra, that’s up to you.  I’m not here to judge nor make enemies of someone who could snap me like a twig.  
   
4. Miz and Miz-dow (4) – I can’t believe I had enough control to leave them at number 4.  By the way, they’re dropping the titles at TLC and will start feuding ASAP.  That’s my first guess because the WWE is too impatient and will have them fighting by the Royal Rumble.  Then their feud will linger all the way to WrestleMania by then I’ll be begging someone to put this gimmick out of its misery.  Until then, I’m loving.  Can I get more manic?  Probably.  
5. The Usos (N/A) – I’ve been saying forever that they need a heel or evil side to them.  The Jimmy (or Jay, who the fuck can tell the difference) fight with Miz and Naomi is a bit lame considering we all know their personal lives thanks to Total Divas.  And even though Miz is lucky enough to be banging Maryse, as the old saying goes, “No matter how hot the girl is, there’s some guy out there that is tired of fucking her.”  
   
6. The Dust Bros. (N/A) – The gold standard of tag teams at the moment.  I’m waiting for your arguments…
7. Dolph Ziggler (3) – Some people can look at his feud with Harper as a step back but I think it gives the WWE time to make sure that he’s deserving of the big push he’s getting and helps solidify Harper at a solid IC level player.  Ziggler can still lose at TLC in an IC title rematch and still be favored going into Royal Rumble. 
8. John Cena (10) – Damn you WWE for making me almost cheer for Cena.  I give him credit for doing his best to put over the likes of Ryback or maybe he just felt sorry for Ryback after CM Punk obliterated him personally and professionally on his tell-all podcast this past week.  
9. Seth Rollins w/ Minions (8) – Like it or not, he’s our top heel and soon he’ll be going against Randy Orton.  JBL said that Rollins with Mercury and Noble are Shield 2.0???  I’m done…
10. Luke Harper (5) – The new IC champ.  The more talented of the Wyatt disciples.  I’m looking forward to a good ole fashion ladder match between him and Ziggler.  It should be great. 
11. Tyson Kidd and Cesaro (20) – In what must be the oddest tag team, I feel bad for Cesaro.  He kinda got killed during the post show interview between McMahon and SCSA.  On the bright side, everyone expects great things from him.  I blame WWE Creative is Cesaro isn’t a top tier guy by this time next year.  He’s got all the tools. 
12. AJ Lee w/ ? (16) – And the lucky winner is… Naomi.  And here I thought this was the first “true” fan vote on the WWE app.  Shows you what I know.  *cough *cough BULLSHIT *cough
    
13. The Bellas (17) – Did I just rank them at twelve?  I’ve got to stop this late night drinking.
14. Erick Rowan vs The Big Show (14&11) – ZZZZZZZZ.  Thanksgiving dinner had less sleep inducing drugs.  BTW, when did Rowan add that “k” to the end of Erick?  Who does that?  And we’re supposed to be okay with his international new theme song (which sucks reindeer balls) and that he’s been a hidden genius savant behind that lamb mask?  I should hate all of this but I’m curious and the Wyatt Family brand name has bought enough good will.  Lastly, “Big Red?”  I see Kane, the original Big Red Machine, coming out to set him on fire.  It’s almost as bad as the “The Big Guy” as far as nicknames go.  While I’m at it, is there anyone slower to the ring than Big Show?  I orgasm faster than it takes for Big Show to get to the ring, and I see sex as a race.  First to finish wins.
15. R-Truth (N/A) – If you’re going to job, job to the best / top guys.  Nice to see you back on TV.
16. Rusev w/ Lana (12) – I’ve been a champion for Back in White for Lana each week but I’ll be fine with Back in Black as long as it’s a race between her skirt slip and jacket plunge towards her belly button.  For god’s sake, do yourself a favor and google Lana’s nude pics.  Smoke show, as the kids would say.
17. Jack Swagger w/ Zeb (13) – Poor Zeb got Nancy Kerrigan’d by someone.  Who?  Why?  How?  Do you care?  It’s more amazing that we’re running back Swagger as the US savior.  The WWE clearly doesn’t know how to stop the Rusev beast they’ve created.  Two words: Kurt. Angle.  I won’t get into rumors but it’s too bad Angle and HHH couldn’t get on the same page.
18. Un Matador w/ El Dorito (N/A) – Please give up this horribly executed Matador gimmick.  Take the bull behind the barn and shoot him.  The performers are actually talented but they’re being wasted on bullshit.  Literally bull-shit.
19. Adam Rose and The Bunny (20) – I’m only slightly curious about who this Bunny is and would like to see a heel version of Rose. 
20. Fandango 2.0 w/ Rosa (19) – Rosa, you have one job to do (other than possibly to give Mr. McMahon hand jobs whenever / wherever he so chooses) and that is to show off ‘dem great big boobs of yours.  It doesn’t have to be Sable-Attitude-Era nudity but something more revealing that the window drapes that you had sacked over your body.  The only boob I saw was the one dressed in all black that calls himself Fandango 2.0 (see what I did there?  Bet’cha didn’t see that coming.)  I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY’RE DOUBLING DOWN ON THIS DANCING GIMMICK?!  Ok, take a step back… I’ve been misled before.  Maybe this is going to be great.  But it doesn’t help that I just watched an interview with the head of the company, Mr. McMahon, who has final say over everything and he said he didn’t know what to do with the likes of Cesaro.  Cesaro!  If they don’t know what to do with one of the more gifted and ready-to-push performers, what am I to think of Fandango 2.0? 
    

Honorable Mentions

Paul Heyman – He’s back via satellite but there’s still something missing.  If you can fly Mr. McMahon to Tulsa, Heyman can get his out there as well. 

Slammy Awards – Seth Green hosts next week’s Slammy awards which are back.  Let “awards season” begin.  Next up…The Academy Awards.  What, they’re not on the same level?  How dare you not give MIZ and MIZdow the credit they deserve.  MIZ is a multi-feature movie star.

Saint Mic and Noelle Foley – Congrats on Mrs. Foley’s little boy’s little girl on her official WWE debut.

BEARcast - WrestleCast 2014-11-26 with Fred "The Oracle"

Fred and I are back to cover this week’s RAW after a great Survivor Series last Sunday.  With everything going on, there’s really just one thing to say, STING was in a WWE ring!!!

WWE Power Rankings, RAW 11/24/2014

Coming at you from Indianapolis, and I’ll be the first one to eat CROW.  Like a SPLASH of cold water to your dome whilst you’re asleep.  Almost as if a small sharp-pointed organ at the end of a creature’s abdomen or tail punctured me.  A creature of legend, who resides in the RAFTERS… Okay, enough… STING!!!  Survivor Series saw the first time Sting has officially appeared in a WWE ring!  Mother fucking STING!!!  I don’t care if no one under 25 knows who Sting is but to all of us long time wrestling fans this was like finally seeing a unicorn.  All I can say is, Vincent K. McMahon won.  Everyone comes to / back to the WWE and this was the last exception to the rule.  

We’ll talk about this more in the weeks to come and you can check out a very special edition of the BEARcast - WrestleCast LIVE post Survivor Series (www.worldofbear.com and on iTunes) so I won’t beat this to death but c’mon.  STING!!!!!!!!

I was very down going into Survivor Series but by the end of the night I was surprised and extremely pleased with the PPV.  Again, check out the podcast for a full recap but it wasn’t just Sting that made for a great show.  Miz and Miz-dow won the Tag straps.  Ziggler got the push we’ve all been waiting for.  AJ Lee (and in turn CM Punk) may have officially received the “kiss of death” literally and figuratively.  And we were teased with a taste of next month’s PPV, Tables Ladders and Chairs (TLC), via the match between Ambrose and Wyatt.  Overall a great show on Sunday night.  

It was one of those Sundays were as soon as the show ended, all you can think about is what are they going to do on Monday.  Even though I’m still not sure what Team Cena’s win will do to the company, the WWE has me hooked and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next.  Basically, the WWE did their job correctly.

So with that, let’s get to the rankings as of this week’s RAW on 11/24/2014...

1. Sting (N/A) – This was a lock from about 7:45pm PST Sunday night.   
2. HHH and Stephanie (12) – Real quick, Stephanie might have lost “authority” but she got an A-minus for Monday’s outfit.  She also killed it on with her opening shoot.  HHH was not too shabby either, even if the last part was straight from the “A Few Good Men” script.  If you’re going to plagiarize, plagiarize from the best.  
   
3. Dolph Ziggler (1) – Now we know why Ziggler dropped the IC belt last week.  He doesn’t have time for that shit any more.  Ziggler’s a main event-er now. 
4. Miz and Damien Miz-dow (3&4) – Just as I predicted, Miz would come out with both belts and Miz-dow would have two fake kids versions.  Perfection.  
   
5. Luke Harper (2) – He was great at Survivor Series and excellent with Ambrose.  Harper has high expectations and having the IC belt mean the WWE has big plans for him.  They certainly can’t bury him like Cesaro, who supposedly got a big push earlier this year.  Imagine if they were to start a feud, huh huh?
   
6. Dean Ambrose (11) – A long two segment match ended with an Ambrose DQ when he bumped the ref.  Once again descending in to a TLC preview with Ambrose getting the  T, L and C treatment from Wyatt.  A nice flip (or juxtaposition, if you want to be fancy about it) from how it went down at Survivor Series.  
7. Bray Wyatt (11) – See Ambrose.  Wyatt was getting some heat from the crowd.  I suppose that shows how over Ambrose is.
8. Seth Rollins w/ Minions (Mercury and Noble) (6) – WWE, don’t insult me with the idea that 3% and 4% of the audience voted for options A and B.  It’s like when an evil dictator wins an “election” with 95% of the vote.  At least do us the favor of making Noble come out in full Jamie-san regalia, mask and all.
   
9. The Dust Bros (4) – You have to like them if only that they put an end to Larry the Cable guy train-wreck.
10. John Cena (13) – It took 2:40 for Team Cena to show up.  That’s balls considering all we’ve heard for the past month is TEAM CENA every week.  I am a little saddened that there’s going to be a whole generation that sees Cena and his gimmick the way my generation sees The Rock, Austin, DX.  
11. The Big Show (18) – The Big Traitor.  I did like how he delivered;  “I’m a Giant.” and  “I have a medical condition that makes me this freakishly large and powerful.” 
12. Rusev w/ Lana (16) – Lana is back in white.  Feel free to check out some great pics going around the internets of Lana.  Trust me, your effort will payoff.  This was stupid.  If they’re really Ruskies, they wouldn’t pledge to the flag nor would it mean anything.  What if this is what sends us back into a cold war.  Please don’t let the history books show the reign of our Russian overlords began with this fake wrestling gimmick.  
13. Jack Swagger w/ Zeb (N/A) – Someone had to come save Slaughter so I guess Swagger is back in our lives.  Is Swagger 2.0 really going to be the one to beat Rusev or just are we just Holding Out for a Hero (in the middle of the night.  ‘Cause he’s gotta be fast and he’s gotta be strong and he’s gotta be fresh for the fight.)
14. Eric Rowan (N/A) – He’s getting a push.  Let’s see if he can do something with it.
15. Justin Gabrielle (N/A) – Listen to the BEARcast - WrestleCast (www.worldofbear.com) for Fred’s recap of who this gentleman is and what he’s been up to for the past year.
16. AJ Lee (9) – GREAT mic work.  Where has this been?  Except it’s hard for her to make the “Talent isn't something sexually transmitted,” when she’s with CM Punk.  But it’s still a great line.
17. B-Bella w/ N-Bella (10) – Your new Divas Champ(s).
18. Concession Stand Kane (N/A) – It’s always odd to see the crowd sectioned off to allow the wrestlers to perform a supposed “natural” skit.  I guess I’m too old and cynical to waste what precious time I have left on this planet with this kind of bullshit.  You can tell what interest in have in the “The Big Guy” by the fact he’s not even on the list.
19. Fandango 2.0 w/ Rosa Mendes (N/A) – They’re doubling down on this dancing fool.
20. Adam Rose & The Bunny vs Tyson Kidd & Natalya (19&8) – It’s a sad day when someone says, “You know what Adam Rose and the Bunny need; Larry the Cable guy and Santino.”  (writer claps their hands and leans back in their chair) 

Honorable Mentions

Daniel Bryan – In what was the WWE’s final surprise of their free month of November, Daniel Bryan came back to make an appearance.  I’m fine with Bryan running RAW but I’m weary of going back to the days when we had a different GM each night.  I like Daniel Bryan the wrestler but Daniel Bryan the GM?  Not so much.  This is why we need the heels HHH and Stephanie running the show.  But for one night we have to let the heroes bask in their glory.  

The Church of The New Day – Stronger, smarter and higher.  How about we cross our fingers for, “Don’t Get Buried.”  

Santino and Larry the Cable Guy – 1) They made another Jingle All The Way?  Who was asking to revisit this franchise?  2) Santino is still sticking with his accent.  GOAT.  3) This Larry the Cable Guy is supposed to be a comedian, right?  4) I thought Larry was a millionaire?   Why are you doing this?  Have some self respect.  

Sergeant Slaughter – It’s my favorite time of year.  The traditional wheeling out of Sargent Slaughter to do something patriotic.  Would it have been more appropriate during Veteran’s Day week?  Sure.  If there was only some sort of document or app that keeps track of the 365 days per year and when holidays occur.  Regardless, I was a huge fan of GI Joe, so I’ll always have a place in my heart for the Sgt.    

Side Note(s)

Kris Jenner tweeted N-Bella, how much did the WWE have to pay for that?

WWE Power Rankings, RAW 11/17/2014

Coming at you from Virginia (I’m guessing Blacksburg), it is never a good sign when they don’t show the name of the city or mention where they are at the beginning of the show.  In hindsight, if I were the location of possibly the worst RAW of the year, I might not want to be mentioned either.  Don’t think I’m giving the city a pass either, the crowd was awful too.  Two wrongs don’t make a good RAW nor a “Go Home Show” for Survivor Series.

All I need to say is; a contract signing for a Survivor Series match?  What could possibly go wrong?

Check out the BEARcast - WrestleCast for a full breakdown of RAW and our predictions for the PPV on Sunday.  Go to www.worldofbear.com and subscribe on iTunes. 

So with that, let’s get to the rankings as of this week’s RAW on 11/17/2014...

1. Dolph Ziggler (9) – Am I crazy to think that Ziggler and Harper could put on a 5-star match at a PPV?  Both participants let it all out and unfortunately Ziggler dropped the IC title.  Very funny, WWE.  For a moment I was convinced Ziggler was getting a push.  You tricked me again!  Ziggler being the IC champ was a good fit, but now I couldn’t tell you what’s next for the Showoff.  The least I could do was give him the top slot before he gets buried.  Again. 
   
2. Luke Harper (N/A) – Excellent match.  I have no idea why he needed the IC belt?  I’ve got high hopes for Harper.  For get about all this Survivor Series crap, let’s see what he does in the next few months.
3. Miz and Damien Miz-dow w/ Grumpy Cat (1) – The great and powerful Miz and his stunt double Damien Miz-dow get two slots because I’m the god of these rankings and they’re the best.  They do need something to do other than be comic relief.  BTW, doesn’t Miz look like Grumpy Cat?  It was a no brainer to put these two pillars of Hollywood together.
4. Miz & Miz-Dow / The Dust Brothers (1&N/A) – I struck a deal with my girlfriend, she had to watch the tag match in exchange for watching the Grumpy Cat segments.  After a few minutes explaining the rules and how the teams were arranged, she really got into it.  You know who she liked most?  Miz and Miz-dow.  That’s all you need to know as to why they’re at the top of the countdown twice.  I can’t wait for the 4-way tag match at SS.  
5. The Usos / Los Matadors w/ El “Dorito” (N/A&19) – Like last week, Los Matadors are riding the coattails of a superior gimmick and / or superior partners.  The most offensive thing about Los Matadors is that if the two of them had a better gimmick, they could be a great tag team.  They can wrestle just as good as The Usos or The Dust Brothers.  Again, these four teams should put on a great match at SS. 
6. Seth Rollins w/ Minions (Mercury and Noble) (4) – As much as I have been complaining about the main storyline of the WWE and Team Cena vs Team Authority, the one person that’s not only floating above the wreckage but seemingly raising his stature is Rollins.  This year’s SS is brining everyone down except Rollins.  I have no idea where he’s going with the Money in the Bank title or who his next opponent will be if RKO is out for an extended period but he’s a great performer on mic or in the ring.  
7. Cesaro (N/A) – Cesaro gets a special bump this week because he carried Ryback’s carcass through their entire match.  Cesaro should be getting this Ryback push.  At least he was involved in the end and sided with HHH and Stephanie.  That’s a good sign for the long run.
8. Tyson “Beats” Kidd w/ Natalya (14) – Maybe “Beats” Kidd is a poor choice for a nickname in light of the current Adrian Peterson situation.  If that’s the case, maybe Kidd shouldn’t wear purple Vikings colors?  Maybe he and Natalya should start a line of husband and wife wrestling porn?  Maybe they’re getting a bump because they didn’t offend my wrestling watching sensibilities?  
9. AJ Lee (8) – It was a good week for the CM Punk / AJ Lee family.  Punk was on Talking Dead and announced that he was writing an issue of Thor for Marvel Comics.  AJ Lee had very good impression of her performed by B-Bella and shined as the Divas champ.  Unfortunately my gut tells me that Sunday is the last day of the AJ Lee Divas championship reign.  
10. AJ-B-Bella vs N-Bella (20) – Yes, I’m as shocked as the rest of you to see both Bellas in the top 10.  B-Bella did a great job at playing dress-up.  To bad Halloween was two weeks ago.  Don’t make the mistake in assuming I’ve changed my stance on this horrendous Bella vs Bella feud.  This week they were interesting and certainly better than most of the other segments on RAW.  
11. Dean Ambrose and Bray Wyatt (10&11) – Oooohhhh, Bray has a new “smoking” lantern.  I bet the WWE couldn’t wait to show that off (and probably sell it on WWEshop.com ASAP).  Even I, a huge Wyatt fan, am tired of these rambling soliloquies.  These two should be teaming up, not fighting against each other.  But like two superheroes clashing when their paths first cross, I suppose that’s what is happening with Bray and Dean?  Hopefully we get a great match on Sunday with no shenanigans.  The problem is that neither of them needs a win over the other and neither of them needs a loss to the other.  I don’t see how any clean result helps either wrestler so we’ll probably see some bullshit ending.
12. HHH and Stephanie (7) – As WWE fashion expert, Stephanie gets a C-plus.  Not that she didn’t look good, but that red dress needed to be shorter or full length.  Now let’s get to the show.  The HHH and Stephanie characters once again did a fine job.  HHH had a few slip-ups but he made up for it with his shots at the WCW (but if you really think about it, weren’t his “friends” the ones running WCW to which he was taking shots at?).  The other contribution my girlfriend made was this quote, “So what happens if Team Authority loses?”  To which my answer was, “Exactly!”  What does happen if Team Authority loses?  NOTHING!  Nothing will change.  Is Cena and crew going to start cutting checks to the truck drivers and staff?  Will Big Show start arranging the travel plans for all the wrestlers.  Will Eric Rowan be in charge of merchandise sales and putting together quarterly reports for investors?  Nothing will change.  Lastly, what’s the purpose for Team Authority to have the US and IC champions?  This whole match is ridiculous but it’s not the HHH and Stephanie character’s fault.  If you want to blame it on Paul Levesque and Stephanie McMahon, be my guest.  I will say, HHH looked legit hurt after going through the table at the end of RAW so I don’t want to beat a man while he’s down.
    
13. John Cena (6) – He tries so hard.  I tip my cap to him.  Do we really need the other jabronies with Cena at SS?  Can he just put on his SuperCena cape and take on the entire Team Authority?  The WWE should just push all their chips in this one time, while no one is caring what happens, and let SuperCena be the superhero to all the kids in the world and have him defeat Team Authority singlehandedly.  
14. Ryback (15) – He’s horrible on the mic.  He can’t wrestle for shit.  He fucks up almost all his signature moves and he looks like a muscular rag doll when Cesaro is tossing him around the ring.  How is the “The Big Guy” over with so many fans?  This is a mystery only Mike Tyson’s Mysteries can solve.
15. Sheamus (5) – So what happened to Sheamus?  I literally fell asleep during the match.  The ringing of the end of the match woke me to find Sheamus and Big Show being taken down my Rusev and Henry.  If anyone knows what happened, let me know.  I’m afraid if I watch, I’ll fall asleep.  It’s like Evil Dead.  You can’t read the scripture from the book of evil or you’ll release Beelzebub.  Two weeks ago he was the US champ, now… nothing.  At least Ziggler will have a friend buried in the same ditch.
16. Rusev w/ Lana (12) – Our new US champion.  As Fred has said on the BEARcast - WrestleCast (www.worldofbear.com) this could have some interesting storylines.  Being part of Team Authority is not one of them.  If the world had any sense of humor, somehow someway the topless pictures of Lana from Banshee would have popped up on the jumbo-tron.  Just for a split second.  
17. Mark Henry (16) – He was there.  He slammed someone through the table.  I checked out.
18. Big Show (17) – Grumpy Cat had the same displeasured look on his face as I did watching anything containing Big Show and Mark Henry.  What an inspiration it was to see Big Show limp to the ring to support Cena.  It was like watching Willis Reed limp out for game 7 of the 1970 NBA finals.  Truly a miracle.  
19. Adam Rose and The Bunny (13) – The Bunny must feel shame.  He must be humiliated.  Take him into the Red Room of Pain.  This allowed the WWE to play around with some sodomy and bestiality jokes.  No one happier than The King who could whip out some of his classic “puppies” material. 
20. Heath Slater (N/A) – This is how I imagine the conversation between the WWE and Heath Slater going… “Virginia / West Virginia, who gives a shit?  You’re from “a” Virginia so put this stupid Uncle Sam costume on and get your ass out there.  Oh, you don’t like it?  Are you seeing what we’re doing to Kofi, Big E and Xavier Woods?  Now get your fucking ass out there.  No, no, stop crying.  We don't care if you have family out there.  You’ll dress up and job to who we tell you to.  You’ll really be crying if we send you to the unemployment line with Drew McIntyre and Jinder Mahal.

Grumpy Cat – It’s “Grumpy Cat” not “Grumpy THE Cat,” Michael Cole, you dumb fuck.  get it right and show some respect.  I won’t harp on the horrible announcing but will only say that if JBL, Cole and The King were more concerned with the show and who or what is on said show rather than arguing about Marie Laveau and stealing each other’s jokes, the product might be better.

The Church of the The New Day – it’s coming.  Big E looks like a 1950s gas station attendant, wash rag and all. 

Lucha Underground – El Rey Network, channel #341?  Looks cool but this has been done before.  Remember when MTV2 tried something like this.  It sounds and looks like a great idea but there’s something that just doesn’t work with a produced wrestling show.  Even though wrestling is all scripted, it must be done LIVE.  Having said this, I do believe there is better version of wrestling waiting to be done.  More scripted with better stories and production but you also must have full, unedited matches.

WWE 2k15 – My Career mode, you say?  Do they have the part where your character gets buried for 2 years because of backstage politics?

Until next time…
