I Take it Back. Maybe Wrestling Does Suck.

For a long time I have argued over and over with people that wrestling really isn’t as bad as they say it is. I was honestly getting tired of people claiming they watch Japanese wrestling on youtube instead of WWE or TNA. And I had reason to be tired of it. WWE was improving. TNA looked like it had promise. In the last few weeks though I have been saying the same things everyone else has – only I have not pretended I stopped watching. So I decided to do a quick run down of the Pros and Cons of sports entertainment in the last month or so to try to remain positive while I bitch about the hours of my life I want back.

WWE

Pros: Santino is still the best thing out there.

Ken Kennedy looks like he might be the guy to crack the main event and give us someone new to watch in a title match on RAW.

John Cena looked like he had some of his old swag back when he handed Mickey James a pair of her panties and downed some Mamajuana.

Evan Bourne (Matt Sydal) has arrived, jumping all over hell and making everyone’s finishers look like about as cool as a scoop slam, and he’s undefeated.

Bryan Danielson has been doing dark matches.

Jericho finally turned heel.

The Draft is next week.

Cons: Santino has been MIA for two weeks now? And he’s funny. He doesn’t need someone like “Jimmy the Kimmel” to help show us he’s funny. In fact besides the time Santino dressed up as Piper, his feud with Cousin Sal was kind of garbage.

Almost the same thing with Ken Kennedy. Of course that should change after Night of Champions when he gets a PPV match.

John Cena went from drinking Mamajuana and banging Mickey to putting HHH over WHILE Trips insults him for only having children as fans and being a shitty wrestler. Seriously, they have neutered Cena. People used to hate him because of the way he acted. Now I, a Cena fan, can’t stand watching because he’s just taking up space. Anyone on the roster could have taken Cena’s place in the last two weeks. We haven’t seen any of his personality during that time.

Nothing wrong with Evan Bourne’s debut. I’m only upset because I don’t know what title he would be going after anytime soon. They need a Cruiserweight Title, European Title, – something for those guys and hopefully more guys like Bourne are on their way.

Bryan Danielson has been doing dark matches.

Jericho has been showing about as much personality as Cena. You could insert anyone on the roster into his place and nobody would notice. We need the guy that called the Iceman “Stinko Malenko” and called Stephanie a “filthy, dirty, disgusting, brutal, bottom feeding trash bag tramp.”

TNA

Pros: AJ dropped the dumbass gimmick.

Angle no longer has the belt.

The X division has the potential to be the most exciting division in wrestling.

The Knockouts just might be the most exciting division in wrestling.

Looking forward to what might happen with the faction starting with the Dudleys and Booker.

Cons: I’m still pissed Angle wears a suit to every show with the money he makes.

The X division is pissing all that potential away every week.

Nothing wrong with the knockouts – they’re like the X division basically – with Brazzers girls. So the good news is if the X division has tits they’ll get ratings. But here’s an idea, instead of replacing the X division with more Knockouts you can write a decent story.

Too much corny stuff. Having one wrestler with the gimmick that he acts like a legend is bad if you’re doing it for more than a month – TNA has two. They also have a superhero. They also have three people playing Rock Band before their matches and hitting people with their Guitar Hero guitars. And I really don’t mind Curry Man but with all the other stuff mentioned he does add to what is already too corny.

So yeah, maybe it does suck. And although it’s still better than watching grainy indie crap on youtube it isn’t that much better lately. Writers, please step your game up.
