Hey, remember a couple weeks ago on Raw when Paige brought up Ric Flairs dead son for an angle? Ric sure doesnt! At least his character doesnt, because that wasnt mentioned on this week's Raw. You think he'd have some thoughts on it. Instead, The Nature Boy appeared to be used to help his daughter begin her heel turn. This is likely a poor decision. The company has been trying to position Charlotte as a legitimate, title holding babyface. Maybe they should make that work first before turning her. Besides, we just went through this same story with Paige turning on her friends. Give it some time before we do this again. And poor Becky Lynch. WWE is really making it hard for her to get over, because she is portrayed as the most gullible, dumbest person on the roster. First Paige tricked her, then Becky forgave her, only to be duped by her again. Now her good buddy Charlotte is poised to turn on her too. On Raw, Charlotte insisted she wanted to teach her little buddy a lesson...butcouldnt she have done that in a non-wrestling match? Just tell her in person that sometimes wrestlers fake injuries, or through a text message, or maybe over a game of WWF No Mercy.
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.
