May I Have Your Attention Please...SORRY BEEN GONE SO LONG!
So ya it has been a long time since I've posted something. I do have a career and have been insanely busy with it these past few months. But as you fellow wrestling fans are aware, Wrestlemania 28 is just around the corner and I am attending. I will NOT be posting on blogger anymore and am moving my blog to tumblr on http://www.tumblr.com/blog/thumbnailsnthumbtacks. SO without further adoooooo here are some posts about the current state of this business.

Mick Foley Returns To WWE
On the most recent Raw Mick Foley returned home to the WWE after a few years in limbo in TNA. I am glad to see Foley back where he belongs. On his return he tried to throw another "this is your life" segment for Cena, and as you may have guessed, it didnt go over very well. It was very rushed, and reeked of Foley and Cena trying too hard. Usually Foley has TONS of great ideas for angles, this was not one of them. It was pretty funny to see the Rock give Foley The Rock Bottom though.
Cena And The Rock, Face off against Miz and R Truth before Survivor Series
Ok The Rock got fuckin ginormous. Hardly seems fair for The Awesome Truth, both Cena and Rock are bigger than houses. I personally am very excited for this match.

Sin Cara Still Having Having A Hard Time In The WWE
Sin Cara has been having nothing but problems in his short tenure in the WWE. No one wants to work with him, and his matches are filled with botched spots and mistakes. While I do believe its very difficult for Sin Cara to make the transition to American style wrestling I do believe that he should be getting better at this, and he has not. There has been multiple talks of actually terminating Sin Cara's contract altogether. It is believed that the only reason they are keeping him around is due to his marketability. Only time will tell if Sin Cara is able to get on the good side of WWE corporate.
Mason Ryan Getting A lot Of Backstage Criticism
A lot of you viewers may have noticed that the WWE is really getting behind rookie, Mason Ryan. While it may seem like the whole creative team is behind Ryan, he is apparently getting a lot of heat from superstars and staff alike. They believe that his ring skills are not up to par yet and that the only reason he is getting this push is due to his abnormally large physique. A lot of people have even speculated that he is taking steroids or some other growth hormone and the WWE is intentionally turning a blind eye towards it.
While I can only add Ryan's steroid use to speculation, I happen to agree that his ring work is not up to par yet. I have seen him in action a lot recently and all of his matches have been really sloppy or unimpressive. He obviously has a lot more to learn.

Former WWE Superstar Kamala Gets Foot Amputated
It has been reported that Kamala (right) recently had his foot amputated due to complications with blood pressure and diabetes. Kamala was a big name in the WWE during the 80's and its such a shame that his health has deteriorated to this point. I hope that Kamala has high spirits and will get through this.
