Trick or Treat! Vince McMahon made me smell his feet. At least thats what it felt like after watching this weeks programming in WWE. While Raw was pretty decent, Hell in a Cell was pretty terrifying and SmackDown was spooktacularly crappy! I wish I could say that it was just this weeks offering that tasted like poisoned candy, but it seems to be par for the course the past few months. Lets be positive for a moment and reflect on the treats. Ryback returned to his old self (and actually cut a really good promo on WWE.com where he owned up to his mistakes), Roman Reigns popped in to wish us a Happy Halloween while dressed up as a guy who was awkward on camera, and El Torito blatantly interfered in a tag match without any repercussions. Wait, two of those things weren't very good at all! I guess I'll settle for one. Also, if youve never taken up WWE on their network you may or may not have heard about, November will be a great month to try it out. Vince McMahon is giving it away for free for 30 days solely out of the goodness of his heart. If nothing else, youll be bound to find some good Meat vs. Test matches on there...somewhere. Lets not waste any more time, its time to hop aboard the Lex Express, and drive this bus cross-country right to the worst of the week!
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.
