You mean Brian?

 

Yes. Brian Christopher.

 

Let's bring back Scotty 2 Hotty too. W-O-R-M.

 

OK, ok. So what did ya'll think of RAW?

I was mostly entertained. Not sure where this Kane love storyline is going, which is why I'll watch to find out.

Also, because I think Orton is awesome and Batista sucks, I was happy when the former booted the latter in the head. Great stuff.

 

Hopefully this means Batista gets a vacation to patch up some of the injuries. When he's on his game, he's fun to watch...but he looks like he can barely run 4 steps right now. What was weird last night was that Cena and Orton almost got the same reaction (women and children cheer, guys boo).

 

Raw was O.K. I don't really care much for the "new" Kane storyline as it's been done too many times and we all know how it turns out.

Strangely enough, I'm looking forward to the Regal/C.M. Punk match as I think them two together can steal any show any day of the week.

Oh, and if H.B.K is playing the role of this impoverished, broken man; WWE should quit doing the DX holiday commercial on their programming.

 

yeah, but that could be seen as how he's trying to raise money

 

They explained it, ham-handedly, as having been taped before his financials went into the crapper. Who knew HBK owned so much newspaper stock?

 

Maybe he pissed off Mark Cuban and Cuban didn't tell him about that insider information.

 

Nevertheless, this HBK storyline is going to tank before WrestleMania. Watch. I figure this could be HBK's second-to-last WrestleMania before he retires; yet, WWE continues to sandbag him.

 

I really don't have the patience to sit through and check to see if anyone has brought this up, so I will. Last night would have been a perfect time to make John Cena heel. After Randy Orton kicks Batista's "head off" Cena comes in for the save. The heels powder out and Cena looks like he's protecting him. Out of nowhere, POW...kick right to the head. The crowd would have rioted on that one. Cena would definitely be the most hated wrestler in the business.

That's my two cents.

 

They are seemingly building up HBK vs. JBL for a big WrestleMania match. And although the storyline sucks, if anyone can pull it off it's Michaels. Over the past five years, nobody has had as many high-profile, enticing feuds. Not even close. Hopefully he can make something with this material. The crowd seems pretty into it.

Like the Kelly-Kane story. It gives them both something to do and presents a storyline opportunity for a face at the Rumble.

Love Jericho thinking he's too good to wrestle Hacksaw.

Hate this Dolph Ziggler guy. Intrigued by Slim Snuka.

ECW was solid tonight. Quality wrestling program they have established over there with great commentary based on actual in-ring action.
