WWE And TNA: 7 Worst Moments Of The Week (July 27)
5. It Wasnt Dixies Fault
Gene Snitsky and Ezekiel Jackson? Stop it Dixie, is this some sort of sick, disgusting, perverted joke? Well Im not laughing. Not at all. When she wants to bring in former WWE talent, she shouldnt go shopping in that companys bargain bin. Sure, this may not be a long-term deal with the duo, but closing out an episode of Impact in 2014 with two forgettable WWE mid-carders beating up three former ECW guys from 1998 was a questionable thing to do. After all, Lo Ki came back on Impact, but he hardly got any attention. While hes infinitely more talented than Gene and Zeke, he was just thrown out there in a match. The company should have treated it like a huge acquisition. Hes a former WWE guy (and TNA guy before that) who is unique, and incredibly athletic. Even The Hardy Boyz reuniting wasnt on the level of promotion of this ECW thing. Nobody is going to buy Dixies henchmen as a big deal, it makes them look like theyre behind the times. These new acquisitions don't make me look forward to next week, it just makes me fear that Val Venis and Camacho are the next to join.
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.
