3. I'm Here To Show My Towel!
You know, Ive got to give WWE some credit on one aspect of the abysmal Summer Rae/Ziggler/Rusev/Lana storyline. They actually played off their own history for once! Brock and Undertaker? According to what we hear on air, WrestleMania 30 is basically the first time they ever fought. Never mind their string of pay-per-view matches a decade ago. But Ziggler and Lana? You better believe they made out on Raw last year! Okay, so the rest of this story stinks, and somehow, someway, gets worse every week. It doesnt seem humanly possible, but it keeps happening. The dead fish should have been the jump the shark moment, but we keep getting metaphorical dead fish piled on us. On Raw, Dolph informed the world that he was about to take a shower, and in the background, just a few seconds later, Summer snuck in. Somehow he didnt notice this, or see her in there until right before the next commercial break, when she ran out of the room screaming. We can only assume he was playing his theme song while in there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSfoEQmoYPY According to Summer, he seduced her with his glistening body. These words dont need to be spoken on a wrestling program. This was bad, and makes everyone involved less of a star. Then on SmackDown, they played the old footage of Summer and Dolph locking lips, so Lana beat up Summer for the 900th time and stormed off. WWE should just go all out and bring in Katie Vick, Chucky, Judy Bagwell and repeated Raw guest Jared the Subway guy (he doesnt seem to be up to much these days), and just make this a love octagon story of the absolute worst things in wrestling.

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.
