2008 Running Pro Wrestling Thread

None of that rings a bell, so I guess so...

I knew about Hart passing away, but I didn't know about the whole Monkey Business thing ...

 

Santino was the best part of Raw tonight.

 

WWE is in bad shape if that is the case. A somewhat entertaining RAW tonight.

 

That is the case. This WrestleMania buildup has been terrible. Luckily for the WWE, the actual wrestlers will more than likely deliver as the matches are pretty solid on paper.

 

Ric Flair. Fan-tastic stuff tonight.

 

Participants in the St. Patrick's Day Parade were replaced by a swarm of mid-carders and jobbers. Film at 11.

 

You'd think they could have held off on the Hornswaggle beatdown long enough to let him have a St. Patrick's Day Raw.

 

Main event was pretty ridiculous. 17 guys can't beat two guys? Come on! Plus, it was supposed to be the entire Raw roster. So where was Michaels and Flair?

 

Plus it was good to see Kendrick and London a) both recover from their beating at the hands of Umaga a little over an hour ago and b) work as a team, even though Kendrick ditched London during said match.

 

Big Show and Jericho weren't out there either. I did like the main event for some reason, though. I'm a sucker for elimination tag matches. Keeping it like a regular tag match (and not just a 17-on-2 clusterfuck) made it somewhat believable that Orton and Cena could hit a few quick finishers and take some guys out. And I liked the last seven or eight guys finally saying "fuck it" and ganging up to beat the crap out of Orton and Cena. Keeps the roster from looking like total assclowns.

And the bit with Santino stealing the sandwich and running off was hilarious. If I saw right, didn't Victoria take a bite while they were walking up the ramp?

 

It's bad enough when a motherfucker punches you, but having your sandwich stolen is fucking war.
