Marking Out From My Couch: Dusting off the keyboard...

I'm writing to you after a lengthy hiatus, I don't have a valid excuse for my absence but I'm back to give my opinion on several things going on right now in WWE specifically. Jump right into it shall we.

In what is probably the best on paper feud WWE has right now, CM Punk is wrestling Daniel Bryan tonight for the title, in what should be an instant classic if it is given the time it needs. Punk and Bryan have known each other for around a decade and I think the two will give it everything they have just to prove that they're deserving of the spots they have. Seriously, Bryan said in an interview that he plans to pull out some new moves tonight and Punk is guaranteed to deliver. Thes rest of the card tonight to me is lacking, but, it does bring me to my next point.

Who the fuck cares about Big Johnny v. John Cena? The ending was telegraphed on RAW when Big Show was "fired" and then the WWE board said that no current WWE star could interefere in the match. Even if it isn't Big Show there will be a run-in and Cena will lose. If Cena is taking time off, they need to do it sooner than later, pull the guy off TV now and let him handle his injuries *ahem* and personal issues. If Cena wins tonight without any run-ins I will eat a shoe, promise.

My WrestleMania 28 Experience

Hello Everyone,

As you all I know, I attended WrestleMania 28 @ the Sunlite Stadium in Miami, Florida.
Saturday
I started my WrestleMania weekend saturday morning as I head to the Sunlite Stadium to attend the WWE SuperStore and Meet Santino Marella. I arrived at approximately 0630 even though doors did not open until 1030am. I was nuber 5 there and as we got closer to opening the more and more people showed up to meet Santino. Only the first 300 got wristbands which guaranteed them an autograph and picture so I was pretty excited. The doors open and I continued to wait in line until finally Santino shows up at 1115am. Once everything got ready the line began to move, when I got to Santino I thanked him for being the United States Champion and told him that I was a Marine. I asked him to please make the autograph to Kailer, who is one of my best friends and he couldnt make it. He asked me how to spell it, but I had his name written on the wristband to make things easier for him. He read the name and signed the picture. When it was time for the picture I asked him to please do the cobra with me and he said "NO". At moment I felt like all the time I time I spend waiting was a waste of time. I never in my life excepted to be dissapointed in Santino, it was like he is this rich guy that was too good to make his fans happy.

1. Big Johnny's State of the WWE address to start the show. He talks about how he is now the sole GM in WWE and tonight is about "People Power" whatever that means. He then makes a US Title match for tonight with Santino defending against Ziggler and Swagger. CM Punk then speaks up as he walks through the crowded locker room. He calls Big Johnny a 'Toolbox" and earns himself a title defense against Mark Henry for his trouble

mrejr's Wrestlemania 28 Review

Finally, the biggest PPV in the wrestling industry happened, and depending on who you talked to it was either exceptional or was kinda disappointing. I am in the disappointed camp as the show started off with a dud. There were several moments in the PPV the left me wondering why the hell they were wasting time when this is supposed to be the most exciting PPV of the year. There were some great moments but, as I'll explain, Wrestlemania just didn't live up to the hype.


Daniel Bryan (C)  vs Sheamus 
This match started us off and had longer entrances than the actual match lasted. Sheamus and Bryan came out to thunderous roars from a crowd that was expecting a war between the Celtic Warrior and The Vegan Champion. However, after getting a kiss from his girlfriend, A.J. Lee, Bryan ate a brogue kick and was pinned to lose his heavyweight championship in 18 seconds. I, for one, thought this set a terrible tone for the entire evening and took away from what should have been an all around awesome PPV. Daniel Bryan is one of the best performers the WWE has and they bump him from Wrestlemania last year only to embarrass him this year. The booking of this match made absolutely no sense. I would not be at all shocked if Bryan asked for his release after this. It was that bad. If there is any justice in the world Bryan gets a rematch at Extreme Rules.

Winner and new Heavyweight Champ: Sheamus

Wrestlemania 28 Preview

Wrestlemania. The Showcase of the Immortals. The Granddaddy of Them All. The Biggest Show of the Year. Yes, it is that time where feuds are ended, and news ones begin. On April 1st we finally see the result of a match that has been built since the last Wrestlemania(or 5 years if you ask John Cena) in John Cena versus The Rock. We also get to see if the Undertaker's legendary streak can be ended by everyone's favorite son-in-law, Triple H in a Hell in a Cell match with Shawn Michaels as the guest referee. Those are the two BIG matches. However, there is a very stacked under-card that promises to steal the show in the CM Punk and Chris Jericho WWE championship match to determine who is, in fact(at least in their minds), the best wrestler in the world really is.

We also get to see Daniel Bryan vs. Sheamus for the World Heavyweight Championship, a 12 man tag team between Team Johnny(John Laurintis' team) and Team Teddy(Teddy Long's team) to see who will be the lone GM of both Smackdown and Raw, Randy Orton vs. Kane, Cody Rhodes vs. The Big Show, and Maria Menounos and Kelly vs. Beth Phoenix and Eve Torres. Below I will give you a rundown of each match and who I think will win.

The Raw Review 3/19/2012

1. CM Punk is out to confront Chris Jericho about the comments he made last week concerning his alcoholic father.

Punk starts off by telling everyone that Y2J is not at Raw tonight. He recalls Jericho's comments and says He's pissed off. He says the fact is, his Father beat his demons and He is proud of him.

Chris Jericho appears via the big screen. Y2J mocks being regretful of his comments, before showing his hand and laying into Punk about his sister. He says she has substance abuse problems and will do anything for a fix. Wow!!

Jericho finishes up and smirks at an incensed Punk, who responds with something I couldn't make out because the ENTIRE thing was bleeped!!

Punk then storms out of the ring.

Why The Rock vs. John Cena Has Sucked

Last year the WWE welcomed The Rock back with open arms and dollar signs in their eyes and quickly booked their attitudinal era star against the biggest, and most polarizing, superstar of this era, John Cena in a match at Wrestlemania 28. You read that correctly, there was a full year in between the announcement and the match. In today's wrestling world that is unheard of. The only difference between this feud and the old school feuds that would literally last for years is that while Rock and Cena would verbally disparage each other once every blue moon while the WWE served Cena a filler feud that really didn't have any consequences beyond the superstar feuding with Cena getting pushed back into secondary feuds and Cena moving on to his next pre-Wrestlemania snack and the Rock delivering mostly via satellite promos where his message and reason for wanting to do battle with Cena is because Cena has a vagina and is phony, private school rapper who mainly appeals to the kids that the WWE has decided to direct their programming to. That's it. Sure, there was a bland Survivor Series tag team match, but that was just to try add a layer of drama to this feud to get people to care. I'm going to show you why, no matter how hard the WWE tries, this just doesn't live up to the match that they are trying to remake in Hulk Hogan vs. The Rock that happened 10 years ago at Wrestlemania 18.

1. We are Live and we start off with Mr. Wrestlemania!!! I will never get tired of seeing Shawn Michaels. I just cant.


HBK praises Hunter's choice to not only accept the match with Taker, but up the ante by making it a Hell in a Cell match. The Showstopper then calls out Triple H to tell him to his face how proud he is of him.

The Raw Review 2/27/2012

1. We start the show with a face to face between Punk and Jericho. 

 

 

Jericho says he's part of a dying breed of Superstars. Didn't we get this same promo from Taker and Triple H last week? 

Punk says that Jericho is jealous of him because he is the top dog and a bigger star than Jericho ever was. Jericho responds saying he returned to embarrass Punk. 

Punk continues by saying he was born to be a wrestler and Jericho is too busy writing books and being a rockstar to truly be the "Best in the World".

CM Punk: "I was swimming with sharks while you were dancing with the stars". Line of the night.

These two have played off each other so well and I know that they will be trying to steal the show on April 1st.

Daniel Bryan comes out for the next match and attacks Punk before the bell.
