"By the way that wasn't a slip; I was imitating Punk the Drunk. I never make mistakes u wannabes..." (from Chris Jericho's twitter)

Oh no, he's not getting away with that lightly. He'll definitely be in Botchamania 205 when that comes out!

BTW, I keep going back and watching the crowd pop when Lesnar's music hits. That was monumental; the biggest pop I've heard in years. That was Stone Cold-level. Miami's definitely up there with Chicago and New York City on the list of best wrestling crowds. :)

Same, seen a few times now...when the guitar bit hits on Brocks music I still get goosebumps *points at arm* :p

So does some moron draw that **** all over his face every single time he is going to wrestle?

No, they probably just do what tattoo artists do and print the image onto transfer paper, and they just transfer the ink to his face, i'm assuming they use a high quality ink that isn't going to rub off?

Oh okay, that makes sense. It would be hilarious if that sweaty beast started having his tattoo leak off of his face.

i don't think any of the make up artists working for WWE would appreciate being called a moron

All we need now is for Batista to come back and then things will really get interesting. On another note, what the hell happened to Mason Ryan? That kid has so much potential and is not being used for anything. A tag team between him and Batista would be awesome OR Batista vs Mason Ryan would be great and entertaining too.

Another wasted talent: Tyler Reks.

I'd rather Batista stay away, WWE need to focus on younger talent

Also, what happened to the stipulation that the winner of the Royal Rumble goes to the "Main Event" of Wrestlemania?

[. . .]

They still class the World Heavyweight Title match as a main event, even if it's at the start of the show (like Edge's World Heavyweight Title match was at the start of last year's WrestleMania). The term 'main event' doesn't have to signify something that happens at the end of the show, and WWE have had main events at other times in shows before (although I believe that is rare). Further, the winner of the Royal Rumble has technically always been awarded a title shot at WrestleMania, rather than being awarded a spot "in the main event." They often unofficially refer to it as having a place in the main event of WrestleMania because of how a title match is seen as a main event.

That's just the problem. A lack of proper competition (IMO, TNA has a loooong way to go before they can really threaten...) has allowed WWE to be able to move in to this complacent position where they can afford to go back to the glory day wrestlers who will give the product a quick boost, rather than proactively work on the up and coming new talent. Sure A-Train/Tensai, whatever, made it big in Japan, but why the need to bring him back? He never really set the world on fire in his first stint anyway. WWE need to focus hard on the future. No one is saying completely cut off the old guard, but maybe look at all the aspects of what made the Attitude era good and implement it with the new talent. Tag Team division anyone? Stables?

I think this just shows the creative team's poor planning at the moment. Sure, put the new talent, in this case Sheamus, over by making him win the Rumble and the title, but why in such a stupid manner? It's almost like they have given him a devalued strap by putting him in an 18 second "Main Event". The rumour mill has it that Sheamus was only given the Rumble win over Jericho so that Vince could get one over the Internet predictions.

Anyway, back to the point of the Main Event, I still think that the Main Events should top the show. In this case, we had 3 Main Events, but I would have rather seen the World Title fight ordered after the HIAC match. Leaving Randy Orton and Kane to open the show and the Team Teddy vs Team Johnny match as "light relief" between the 2 title fights and the Brodus Clay segment as the "light relief" between the WWE Title fight and the Cena/Rock fight.

Oh well, onwards and upwards in the WWE! :p

I like the older guys better myself. The young guys aren't nearly as interesting.

I don't like Ambrose. He disrespected Mick Foley at Wrestlemania for no apparent reason. The guy forgets that Foley raised the bar of extreme which intrigued a large audience to the sport/ entertainment.

that has to be a work...he did the same with Regal in FCW and it was a massive work

Yeah, if it wasn't a work, the WWE would have him out of FCW faster than the Sheamus/Daniel Bryan match! :p

As noted before, CM Punk vs. John Cena and Kane vs. Randy Orton is being advertised for WWE?s Extreme Rules pay-per-view in Chicago on April 29th. Word is that the Kane vs. Orton match will be a Steel Cage match.

>.<

I like women, myself.

:D

...

The fact that Lesnar is back might make me watch WWE for a while. (his segments) Good thing for him, this way he makes the dough w/o much risk.

UFC just wasn't his game although his beef with Mir was what really amde me not miss any MMA event. He had huge public draw, now with Cena it'll probably still stay like that. Go Chestnar.
