Yeah, so Jason Frank wants to challenge CM Punk to a MMA match. Just digest that for a minute… and then let’s follow that up with this.
Boy, oh boy, talk about your delusions of grandeur. Seriously, man, what the fuck is wrong with you? Jesus Christ, man, why don’t you just shoot a challenge over to Bozo The Clown or something?
I guess this clip sums up my feelings on the matter.
And he SPEAKS the truth.
Couple topics that don’t merit their own individual posts, so let’s shoot them out in one post right now…
– Last night’s RAW was… meh. Apparently, the newest Paul Heyman guy is Joe Hennig with a new name, Curtis Axel… Well, it’s a step up from Michael McGillicutty, that much I’ll say. And how nice was it of that HHH chap to put this guy over in his first night by making a complete ass out of him before stumbling to a really WTF ending. Who won the match? They never said a thing on that… Oh, and Ryback wants an Ambulance Match with Johnny C… god, this show hurts my head sometimes.
– Actually, I’m just glancing at WWE.com and it turns out Axel won by forfeit… that’s what happens when you don’t announce your wins. Lame.
– So Irate Gamer uploaded his latest video episode and it’s on the NES Star Trek… meh. That was my only really reaction. This was just meh. Nothing about the video was particularly funny in either an intention or unintentional sense. I was just… meh. I’ve got nothing.
That’s it. I’m done for now.
Later.
“Dwayne’s hurt tonight. He was pushing it too hard.
[He] needs to grow up and stop wrestling
300-pound men.”
Last night, Space channel was showing an old Steven Seagal flick from the 90s called Under Siege. What a damn good movie that was and I might actually consider picking up a DVD or BluRay if I come across it for dirt cheap. Light on plot, but the action was top-notch for the time and it was a thrill watching it. No complaints in that regard; I was thouroughly entertained throughout the film.
Anyway, it just occurred to me some time later that the name of Seagal’s character in that movie is Casey Ryback and that he’s a cook. Interestingly enough, in WWE, there is a character called Ryback whose catchphrase involves feeding him more… stuff.
So work with me here. In the 90s, a character named Ryback is a cook. In the 2010s, a character named Ryback likes to eat… go figure.
I wonder if there’s someone on the creative team who was a fan of Under Siege and… nah, that’d be giving those monkeys too much credit.
From Randy Orton’s Twitter:
They should totally make a T-shirt out of that.
Apparently Vince stole Shredder’s shrink ray to steal the Statue of Liberty for Wrestlemania…
As well as the Brooklyn Bridge…
And the Empire State Building…
Of course, I wouldn’t have known any of these if Vince hadn’t announced it so bombastically.
Set looks nice, but where’s DDP in this? He’s a Jersey boy, too.
From Figure Four Weekly:
Largely due to numerous complaints, Mick Foley is apparently going to be on the Hall of Fame broadcast on Tuesday. Foley credited the change to Santa Claus talking to Vince McMahon. I can’t confirm that was the real source of the change, and it’s more likely the negative reaction the company has gotten over it the past two days.
Nope memes suck, but 4/10 memes are a thing, so… meh.
