4. Willow Masks For All!

TNAs last episode before Slammiversary was pretty solid. They did a much better job hyping the event than they had in recent years. They made Bobby Lashley vs. Drew Galloway feel like a big deal, and made fans wait to see EC III Get his hands on Mike Bennett. Its logical booking headed into a pay-per-view.

All was going well on Impact until Matt Hardy came out to the ring to close out the show. As he stood in the ring, the lights went out, then came back on, and suddenly, the entire front few rows had cardboard Willow masks on. Now, theres a couple of questions here. Did they run out of Willow masks to give to everyone in the arena? Did Jeff Hardy have to hand them out before the show, and tell every single person exactly when to put them on?

This weird crowd visual brought me back to Bray Wyatt using a choir of creepy elementary school children to scare John Cena. Its one of those things that may seem kind of cool in your mind, but someone, at some point, should realize its just going to be stupid.

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
