This week in the world of professional wrestling, Sasha Banks upset Vince McMahon by not weighing more, WWE began plotting on how to book Shane McMahon vs. Brock Lesnar as a serious match and a WWE Hall of Famer has been elected as President of the United States.

Elsewhere in wrestling, the tale of James Ellsworth continues to grow as he’s now being asked to take over the role that Hornswoggle made famous from Bragging Rights 2012, by becoming the mascot for Team SmackDown. Speaking of the blue brand, they added ANOTHER member to the announce booth, which now makes 12 people. At this point I would take Mauro Ranallo talking to himself over David Otunga, JBL and Tom Phillips chiming in, but WWE thinks adding more to everything has always been the answer. This is exactly why Raw's ratings have exploded since the addition of the third hour.

For worst line of the week, let’s put forth Michael Cole's hard-hitting assessment of The New Day “They know how to have fun and entertain, which is what it’s about here!” Damn. All this time I thought within the narrative of professional wrestling, winning was what it was all about. Apparently spoofing a movie that came out in 1995 is the key to success. Can they do a Forrest Gump bit next week?

Now let’s not waste any more time. Let’s make like The Vaudevillians and job our way through WWE and TNA’s 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. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
