Fun fact: Luke Harper has lost 10 straight televised matches! Funner fact: Heath Slater has won five straight televised matches! The tag division is in shambles right now. Theres the Usos...and thats about it. Sure, you have the golden sparkle brothers and their mysterious cosmic key, you have a Slater Gator or two, and you have the Smiling Jackasses (my working name for Big Show and Mark Henry). After that, theres nothing. Meanwhile, The Wyatt Family is struggling to remain relevant after becoming one of the least effective scary stables in wrestling history. I think the team of Mideon and Viscera had a better win/loss record. This week it looked like a potential feud was brewing between The Smilers and Harper and Rowan. Maybe a Wyatt Family victory on the WWE mainstays could give them a little bit of their heat back. WWE decided to skip all of the story type stuff and just give us the end of the feud with Show and Henry winning clean. The combined age team of Show and Henry at 85, defeated the team of Harper and Rowan. Where is the 120-year-old team of Demolition to stop them before things get out of control?
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.
