I was actually thinking of her having me in a different kind of headlock....

Anyway, I heard Morrison was at some club recently doing stand up. I can't believe he's seriously pursuing that. If doing stand up has helped him develop his personality, maybe he'll have what it takes to come back to the WWE and finally hold on to a main event spot. Lack of personality was the only hole in his game

Was that intentional? Because they focused so much attention on it. I loved it, but didn't know if it was a work or a genuine accident. That bloody smile on Cena's face, and the slap that preceded it, soooooo heelish. I don't think we'll ever see an official heel turn for Cena, but he's been playing heel for a while now. Did you guys also notice how he went back and dissed the Rock AGAIN for the same reasons as usual, right after he said all that crap about respecting him last Monday. He sounds like a broken record, but again, it's another thing that makes him feel heelish and proves Rock's "hot garbage" accusations.

Cena may not be a heel, but the way he's been acting lately I'm surprised they don't just go and turn him. I guess Brock is the "official" heel here, since he's teemed up with Funk and low blowed Cena, but neither of them is really acting babyface. Maybe we are getting a taste of the attitude era again.

Jericho and Punk has gotten pretty good despite kind of a slow start. The feud was sort of flimsy at first, but bringing Straight Edge into it has made it better. I love that we haven't seen a trace of wisecracking, funny Punk since this feud started. He's really selling Jericho's mind games.

You know, between Cena's slap and Brock's low blow, this feud feels like a cat fight. Should Brock and Cena be competing for the divas title :lol:

Seriously, that's not how men fight for crying out loud.

Cena's slap was pretty weak but Brock definitely caught him by accident. Brock's follow-up fake punches on the ground were horrible.

I like pull apart brawls but you would have thought they were running out of time on the show with how fast everyone ran down. When does the locker room empty before the refs and agents even hit the ring?

I like Lesnar's heel act so far. His backstage promo was decent, and that back-turned low blow (which looked really good) was fantastic.

This PPV match has to be a no contest though. I would have liked to see Brock tear through other people with Cena as the last hope. Starting and beating Cena doesn't leave either with much story-wise.

Cena's lip got split wide open! No razoring there. Lesnar either f-ed up, or there's some real heat.

Lesnar's probably stiff as hell right now but a little color really adds that certain somethin' to the scene. With Cena on edge, Lesnar being back and Jericho pushing those devious mind games and having to be censored, RAW was actually pushing the PG rating more than usual. Yes! Yes! Yes!

As for Morrison, he's being smart and is allowing his injuries to heal and, from what I've been told, is going to retrain before he returns to the ring.

In other news, the Bella Twins, Nikki and Brie, are leaving the WWE. Their contracts expire at the end of the month and they don't plan on signing back up.

Personally I'm sad to see them go. The most obvious reason being I'm a guy and they are the hottest Divas in the company, imho, but I also like their performances and antics. They may not be the most technical wrestlers but, hell, the Divas division at present is total crap. Lita even expressed her discontent with the product at Axxess this year. She joked around that maybe she should come back an' help get it back on track. I wish she would.

He got it enough to respond.

Best of luck, Nathan!
Thanks! I hope I get a match. I don't wanna wheez in on the wrestling thread too much but if anyone wants to post this on other wrestling threads or sites it would be much appreciated! I'd like to make it so big the WWE can't ignore it. I know Ziggler is way into it too.

Wheez as much as you want in here, Nathan - the response video is great.

Poor Dolph's response only has 70,000 views and has more dislikes than likes. He's getting buried.
