Ugh. Just ugh. Before defeating Diego and Fernando on Superstars, Luke Harper had not won a televised match since July 7th! Thats over two months that this monstrous character, who gets compared to Bruiser Brody, was able to pick up a victory. WWE desperately needs the 3MB back, so the Wyatt Family dont have to play jobbers. The Wyatt Family has become less and less threatening every week, and Monday they hit a new low. After Big Show competed in a singles match against Bray (and WWE couldnt help but show us that Show would have won without the interference) Harper and Rowan hit the ring to put the boots to Show. Instead, they got those boots shoved up their own asses as he quickly double chokeslammed them both. The Wyatt Family was a really interesting act not that long ago. Big Show has never, ever been as interesting as they were. There were never as many intriguing storyline possibilities for him as The Family has. WWE likes to play it safe, though, as we see with Cena and Orton constantly in the main event scene. Instead of putting over two up-and-comers with potential to be successful big men over the next few years, theyre just fed to the 40-plus-year-olds of Show and Henry. Demolition got to go over The Colossal Connection late in Andre The Giants career. The Wyatt Family instead gets to be the first item on The Big Shows all you can eat buffet.
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.
