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.

Kevin Nash Added To The WWE World Tour

So Nash has been having a lot of dark matches around the country and overseas as a part of the WWE world tour.  Apparently he has been solely involved in tag matches while they younger stars have been doing the majority of the work.  This is understandable as Nash is very old but I can't wait to see him back in action again on regular WWE tv programming.

Rock and Cena To Team Up Against Miz and Truth At Survivor Series

I am actually legitimately looking forward to this match.  I think that giving the fans a taste of The Rock and Cena together before Wrestlemania is a good idea.  Fans were already outraged when they said that The Rock Vs. Cena match would have to wait till April so this is a good way to appease them without giving away the main event too early.  Miz and R Truth are both great in ring competitors but I am really stoked to see all these new comers interact with the Rock since they never before have squared off against him.  This is also the Rock's first match in what seems like a decade.  I am flying out to New York just to see this and am very excited.

Zack Ryder: Destined For Greatness

I wasn't a fan at first I'll admit, but after doing some web research, Zack Ryder definitely deserves the push he has been receiving.  He became popular not because of the WWE but all because of his presence on the internet and the fans legitimately getting behind this guy.  Way to think outside of the box Zack!  Woo Woo Woo!  YOU KNOW IT!

Justin Gabriel Picking Up Some Steam!

So Justin Gabriel is picking up a pretty good fan base.  Keep up the good work man!

Triple H Relieved Of His Duties

Vince returned on last week's Raw to do what his son in law did a few weeks ago and relieved him of his duties.  Triple H was replaced by John Laurenitis and seems to have returned to the active roster!  I like seeing Triple H give another good run in the ring and I hope that he doesn't decide to hang up the boots too soon.

Big Show Returns, Challenges Mark Henry To A Title Shot

I know I can't be the only person who thinks this but I am stoked to see the Big Show back on Smackdown.  I feel like he's been gone for a while and am very excited to see what him and Mark Henry do at Vengeance.  These two vets are definitely going to put on a good show.

Tyler Reks: What Happened?!

So this guy debuts and is supposed to be some sort of devastating superstar and he barely makes a blip on the WWE Universe radar.  He's not even a mid carder and thats giving him credit.  Figure out what to do with this dude or send him back to FCW.

Cody Rhodes Brings Back The Classic Intercontinental Title

This is pretty cool.  Always fun to see it when WWE does a little retro fan service.  I also think it helps Cody give himself a little more character and I am very interested to tune in each week to see how his character grows.  I have a lot of faith in Cody and I think he has the potential to be great.

I Can Not Wait Till This DVD Comes Out!

WWE Wasting Money Keeping Khali Around

I personally think that it is time for WWE to finally cut it's losses and get rid of the punjabi giant.  Khali was a great gimmick when he was first introduced but his angles have become stale and uninteresting.  He went from being World Champ to a big ass jobber.  I've never seen a jobber who is over seven feet tall.  He can't wrestle, he can't cut a promo to save his life, and the period of time where he had such angles as "the Khali Kiss Cam" were embarrassing to a superstar who had headlined pay per views in the past.  I honestly think that Khali's character has run its course and I think it would be beneficial to the WWE budget to get rid of him.  I do not see him putting on any more interesting matches or angles in the near future.

Mark Henry Is Finally Champion: I Say About Time!

As you all now, Mark Henry finally won the big one.  He defeated Randy Orton for the World Heavyweight Championship.  I for one happen to think that it was a long time coming for Henry to become champion.  The dues and time Mark Henry has given this business is a large number to say the least.  The potential for a great heel has always been in constant in Henry and I'm glad that the WWE has finally realized how many great stories and angles they could tell with The World's Strongest Man.  I am one who believes in hard work being rewarded and this is case in point, where hard work has finally paid off.  Kudos to you Mark Henry, keep up the good work.

WWE Taking Careful Precautions With Security Concerning Maryse

WWE Diva Maryse has been receiving threatening letters from a male stalker and the WWE has heightened security around the Diva to protect her from a man named Lee Silber.  Be careful Maryse!

After Some...Interesting Promos, Johnny Curtis To Debut on Smackdown This Friday

This guy definitely has a good look to be a superstar but this is purely speculation until I actually see him in a match.  I will have to say that I am not a fan of his promos leading up to his debut.

CM Punk Returns, WWE Has Two WWE Champions.

Let me just start off by saying that I applaud the WWE with the newest storylines and direction they are taking with their "real life" angles.  Wrestling hasnt been this interesting to me in a while and each week it just gets better and better.

Vince Is Relieved Of His Duties, Triple H Is Now In Charge

Does this mean we no longer are going to see Triple H in the ring?  Its an interesting new angle the WWE have given us and I am actually looking forward to see where this goes.  Only Vince would get fired in a pink suit.
