Watching the pay per view right now, no mention of Macho Man at all. Show opened up with an R Truth in ring promo

Well, as someone who has been looking for pinballs and arcade cabinets, I've been noticing that the price of anything with Macho Man Randy Savage has jumped. Some are more shameless about it than others.

Great Orton/Christian match, Randy busted out a new submission move. Christian looked good here, but he lost of course and ALMOST went heel

That was awesome! I actually like Eve's appearance more though, only because Cole has been shitting all over the women's division for quite some time now. Along with Karma's buildup, this was another way to maybe make people take the divas a bit more seriously

I'm really high on R Truth right now. He's getting better and better on the mic and got a clean win over a frequent main eventer. I also liked Sin Cara's match though I don't think it had a good finish and I think he got a little too much offense in during the second half of the match. He pretty much ran over Chavo over and over again. It was a little overdone and made Chavo look pretty pathetic. Orton and Christian stole the show. Cena sucked as per usual. I'm tired of his martyr act which is all these I Quit matches are for him, just a cheap way to get him more over. Notice half of the crowd, as per usual with Cena, was firmly against him. Course the kids and soccer moms were completely in his camp. Cena is so limited in his demographic range

One of my favorite moments of the night was Kane expressing his anger over the lack of an apocalypse yesterday

Sad thing was, he probably was on his way to do just that. The Madness was advertising for WWE, which meant they finally reached an agreement.
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

It's hit the rumor mill that Raw will have a tribute video for Macho Man. Also, I must have started watching Over the Limit a bit late as I missed seeing a screenshot of him saying, "in memory of" at the beginning of the show. It's worth noting that CM Punk and Wade Barrett both used moves out of Macho Man's playbook in their matches

On a completely different topic, I really, really hope to see a Karma/Gail Kim feud in the WWE though I doubt it would be anywhere near as epic as this f***ing awesome match they had at TNA's Final Resolution 2008:

..other than that, that's a good pic of the late Macho Man and Elizabeth (looks like from their WCW days).
