Can we put Damien Mizdow and The Miz back together and pretend the split never happened? Sure, their pairing was growing a bit stale as it went on, but its much better than Sandows new gimmick of mocking every single person he comes in contact with. Thats just an unfunny, jerk thing to do. Particularly painful was his impression of Curtis Axel on Raw. He should have put more time into working on his Axel voice. What he did wasnt good. In a WWE.com exclusive, he later repeated everything Renee Young said. On SmackDown, he did it to JoJo. This is 3rd grade humor at best! Its about the easiest joke you can do, simply repeating whatever the person youre talking to just said. When Sandow goes to a restaurant and his waiter asks him if he wants more water does he just say Da doy, do you want more water? If the doctor told him he had an STD would he say Durrrr, you have an STD! No Damien, Im serious. Dahhh no Damien, Im serious. Worst of all was Damien saying he's on quest to entertain. He claimed management said he wasnt entertaining enough. What should that have to do with anything? Thats fourth wall breaking, Vince Russo backstage writing at its worst. Wins and losses should be what mattered in the terms of the narrative and he always lost. Thats it. Yes Damien, thats it.
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.
