Happy Holidays everyone! Did you enjoy your presents from WWE this week? We got tables, ladders, chairs and stairs from Vince McMahon himself. Personally, I could have used a new blender. In fact, the only thing missing would be a nice refund after sitting through a fourth pay-per-view main event in a row without a clean finish! This week we also had current ROH wrestler Jimmy Jacobs finally show up in WWE after spending over 15 years of his life in the business by appearing as a Rosebud. It's hard not to feel like a lemon for him after that. Jimmy Uso gave us some more lessons on how to be a terrible husband, and on Raw, we had to listen to the announcers go on and on about Lucy and Harpo. Did that ring a bell for WWE's PG audience? Most likely not, since it was from an episode of I Love Lucy in 1955! Has no one in that company watched TV in the past 30 years? Can we at least get Who's The Boss related comments? That'd be a little fresher. Luckily its almost Christmas time, so maybe WWE can be extra nice to us this next week. Theyve given us enough coal already. I may sound like Scrooge, but McMahon made me this way. So grab some candy canes, drink some hot cocoa, and lets unwrap 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.
