Looks like WWE is going full gimmick now.
And I don't mind so long as it gets Austin, Michaels, and The Rock on Raw. The anon is now boring.

Gimme the anon over teddy long any day, it don't get much bigger than HBK for my money. So we've had rock, Austin, roddy piper, bret hart and now HBK in the last few wks. Get a bit of MDM and dusty back on there too.

The Rock needs to be GM, to deliver golden moments: Gimme the anon over teddy long any day, it don't get much bigger than HBK for my money. So we've had rock, Austin, roddy piper, bret hart and now HBK in the last few wks. Get a bit of MDM and dusty back on there too. Anon used to tease us and use past catch phrases. Lately he's just been straight run of the mill boring.

Yes I know he's been boring but I'd take that over the insulting repetitiveness week after week of smackdown:
show starts a wrestler comes to the ring, he spouts off, he gets interupted by wrestler number 2, no. 2 stands at the top of the ramp, they goad each other until one of them says 'ok let's settle this now and Starts walking down the ramp only to be interupted by teddy longs music to which teddy pops up and says 'holla players, if you two can get along then we're gonna have a match tonight for the main event, it's gonna be wrestler no.1 vs....... (pause with baited breath) ...... Wrestler no.2'
can also involve 4 wrestlers for a tagged main event.
Got to the point where I can't watch it cuz of that and to make it worse teddy is constantly saying ' it's my job to make SD as exciting and unpredictable as possible'
I'd rather have a laptop beeping away tbh

Shawn is a cool guy. Very friendly and interested in what people have to say. He lives near my in-laws and I got to meet him a few months ago.

I have to admit to not having watched much wrestling in the past few weeks. Did they start using Andy from Tough Enough?

Not yet Manilla, i think they sent him to FCW for some fine tuning. But im looking forward to his official debut honestly, i think hes going to be a nice addition and a fresh of breath air on that roster. He just has a certain look that most guys dont have these days.

Andy got a video of him training at last night's Raw.
Also, last night was one of the best Raw's I've seen since... well in a long time. It was certainly the most memorable one since the Nexus invasion, but I don't remember anything else about that Raw. Last night just had a lot of awesome matches, which is rare as sometimes there are one, or usually no, great matches on Raw.
And CM Punk just cut the greatest promo I've ever seen. It was a thing of a beauty - a great way to end Raw. What he said was pretty much spot on. He has never gotten the big push he deserves. He should have gotten one sooner. Instead they give him piss-ass feuds, and even the new Nexus has not been a big deal. They are not feared or respected like the original Nexus, or Evolution, or any of the other good factions of the past.

Its amazing that anything guys like Austin, Michaels, Rock touch..its just gold. To think that at one time we had Michaels, Austin, Rock, Trips, Foley etc...all going at once is just such a sad feeling. But i really enjoyed the show and michaels was a nice touch. Its just amazing the lack of charisma from guys these days. I think alot of guys feel that just having a good body is all they need, and they dont work on their charisma. Yea Punk did good.

I don't think we've had HBK and Rocks in their primes at the same time. Seems like injuries or movies always got in the way.
