This week in wrestling, Randy Orton showed up four times in the first 56 minutes of Raw. That was unnecessary on at least four levels. That may be all you need to know about how the week was. Well, Mick Foley returned which was kind of cool, and Heyman cut another Heyman promo so that was nice as well. The rest? In a word: Eh. Well, we also had Raw giving us a Big E vs. Rusev re-match from Main Event. Shouldnt that have been the other way around? Main Event is supposed to be the recycling bin of Raw! John Cena also recited Dylan Thomas poetry for the upcoming video game, which is something I thought Id never see, and General Kane was unable to keep his troops together. Will this lead to a Randy Orton face turn? Will that lead to anyone caring? In a word: meh. In a rare entry, TNA is excused from Worst of the Week this week. I was out of town and unable to be by the bedside of this dying company. Dont worry, they still have three weeks left of programming and plenty of other awful things still happened in WWE! Now we all love wrestling, but sometimes wrestling just doesnt love us back, and thats what were here for. So everybody make like The Godfather and roll a fatty for this pimp daddy (or whatever the PG equivalent of that is), light that blunt up (or whatever the PG equivalent of that is) and say worst of the week aint easy!
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.
