Poor Curtis Axel and Bo Dallas are just trying to turn their careers around. Then they had to go ahead and run into two guys who used to be really cool in The Shield but are now kind of lame.

After a rocky start, last week it looked like there was some actual hope for Miz's new stable. Their vicious beatdown went a long way in giving them some badly needed credibility. With Axel most well known the past couple years for getting tossed out of the Royal Rumble, and Bo recently carrying around a Donald Trump-like poster board, they needed all the help they could get.

WWE took a big step back this week when they booked a 3-on-2 match where, believe it or not, the team with the advantage lost the match. It felt so unnecessary. Why couldn't Miz and Dallas have teamed up, then when Ambrose and Rollins win, the heels don't look as bad. Handicap matches are just about the worst, because the losers look so pathetic, which is the last thing Miz's new team needs at the moment.

Really, just about the only thing worse in wrestling than a handicap match is a gauntlet match...

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
