Its pretty bad when JBL points out that you lost because of a stupid mistake, and hes absolutely right. On Raw, Dolph Ziggler just couldnt keep his eyes off of Tyler Breeze. What was Prince Pretty going to do with that selfie stick? While in a fight, Dolph was more concerned about a guy taking pictures of himself than he was with beating the Intercontinental Champion. He ended up taking a swing at Breeze who was on the outside of the ring, not even on the apron, missed and was Pop-Up-Powerbombed for his foolishness! JBL likened Zigglers loss to LeBron James losing because he was distracted, well thats justactuallyyeah, thats a pretty fair point. If a player from another NBA team showed up in the crowd and Lebron couldnt take his eyes off of him, he would be mocked for ages. The booking of The Showoff has been atrocious ever since he turned babyface a couple years ago. Didnt they tease him turning heel again a few Raws back? The man just cant get a break, stumbling from one lousy feud to the next. In another era, a jump to WCW would have been exactly what he needed to re-invent himself. Instead, hes stuck in a feud with a guy whose gimmick is like an evil Zoolander, and yet hes the one who looks ridiculous.
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.
