I'm pretty sure what Burning is trying to get at is that Guerrero doesn't make 'im hate her because she's successfully eliciting that response as a heel character; she's just plain intolerable to the point people just have absolutely no interest.

Heenan, at times, you loathed horribly but you were entertained, you still wanted to watch. Apparently the same cannot be said for Guerrero.

Personally, I don't care; as a manager she hasn't really done much to warrant much of an opinion from me.

Exactly.
I am addicted to video games, especially retro gaming from my era. I have: NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, Gamecube, Gameboy, GBA, Wii, Sega Genesis, Sega CD, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, Xbox, and Xbox 360. I have probably over 1,000 games in total for all these systems combined. Yes, I need help and I wouldn't have it any other way! This is my passion and hey my wife still loves me!!

Just watched the opening segment of Raw and I think Ricardo Rodriguez was the most entertaining person in the ring. That's sad. Cena was, well Cena. Del Rio was boring as usual, and as much I respect the Hitman he can barely make it through a promo without stumbling on his words

Random thoughts as I'm over an hour and a half into Raw:

Kelly Kelly needs to die. Maybe Rikishi can suffocate her with his butt. That would be fitting

Yes, ADR doesn't deserve to be champ, but not for any of the stupid reasons laid out by Brett Hart and Cena

A Toreador Cena? Really? Really? God I hate you

Mark Henry needs to be strapped....now. He's fucking awesome

It's time to kickstart a meaningful feud between Orton and Cody. Especially since I think Orton should be dropping the tittle this Sunday

Sheamus in the tag match? Where the fuck was Ryder?

Truth's logic is hilarious. COO spells coo. Coo times two is coocoo, which is what Triple H is :lol:

This Ziggler/Swagger feud could be handled better. For one thing it would be nice if I knew who the hell is the BABYFACE for god's sakes.

Guess you gotta keep Riley over....even though you're not doing jack shit with him

Nice job using the 9/11 national tragedy to get yourself more over WWE. A simple, "remembering those who lost their lives on 9/11" would have sufficed. Instead, we need to hear about how awesome their public assembly was :roll:

Ricardo Rodriguez is more entertaining than Alberto Del Rio. I'm fucking serious

God damn, going almost a whole Raw without seeing CM Punk is painful

"Your name should be BS Punk." Good one Miz

I don't think NoC is a buy for me, although the Punk/HHH match could be really really good.

I'm trying to guess what overdone finishes they'll go with for ADR/Cena and Orton/Henry. I'll go with Henry wins by countout and ADR gets a cheap DQ after consistently beating up the referee.

Jesus, Hunter is BURYING Punk. The crowd is still totally into him though. So I think Punk will be okay going forward, but this Triple H/Nash stuff has been pure shit. I hope Punk gets the win on Sunday. He really needs it with Hunter making ZERO effort to put him over in the mic

WHY THE FUCK ISN'T TRIPLE H PLAYING HEEL IN THIS FEUD!?!?!?!?!?!?

Damnit

Punk came across as a whiner and HHH as the voice of reason. The end was interesting at least. Still - the "HHH out as COO" stip is terrible this early. He's not losing unless Punk is turning heel. I don't see that happening.

See I don't like what they've done here. Punk was on fire coming out of Money in the Bank with major baby face pops. It feels like this stuff with Hunter has just been gradually chipping away at that instead of elevating him more. You wrestle once a year Hunter. Put the guy over for crying out loud

What has the WWE really accomplished by putting Punk up against a babyface Triple H? At least with Cena, you could exploit the fact that fifty percent of Cena's audience hate him. So you got some heat on Cena in their feud. Plus, and I know I criticize Cena a lot, but I give him credit for ACKNOWLEDGING the stuff Punk was saying in their verbal exchanges. It was this sort of thing where it was like Punk would say, "you suck because of this" and Cena would be like, "yeah, but you suck because of this". With Hunter it's more like, "Everything you say is complete bullshit and I'm going to prove it".

It makes such a huge difference and is hurting Punk and this feud in a big way
