WWE And TNA: 7 Worst Moments Of The Week (Jan 10)

Rumble stumble is bad news for all of us!

Hey everyone, look, Chris Jericho is back! How long will it be before he says something really lame and unfunny? €œRooty, tooty, booty.€ Huh. I think that took about a minute. Elsewhere in wrestling, SmackDown started on a new network and a got a new announcer, which somehow was so offensive to Jerry Lawler that he kind of turned heel. TNA had their first live show on their new network, which was a decent outing, minus Mike Bennet€™s outfit. Oh, and we€™re doing that bit with R-Truth not knowing what the hell is going on again? Damn. Apparently no one in WWE has heard of the phrase €œbeating a dead horse.€ Just give the man his own show on the network where he does that for a half hour every week Vince and get it out of your system! In a rare moment of wisdom, though, Truth asked €œHow do I get in on that?€ in regards to the Royal Rumble. That is a hell of a question, since people just randomly announce that they€™re in it. I'd like to announce that I'm entering the 2024 Rumble, and will be the second entrant after Big Show. Well, it was the first full week of wrestling in 2016, so how did it go? If these past seven days were any indication, we€™re in for another delightfully awful year! Here comes the Axe, here comes the Smasher, and here comes WWE and TNA€™s worst of the week! Just before we ring the bell, this was also the week where my first ebook for WhatCulture was published.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
