Jericho gets a big entrance with a big build-up because there's no other way to re-introduce Jericho. Plus he's guaranteed a huge pop. After five minutes of fucking about the crowd was getting seriously pissed off with him. It generated some real heat. Job done. There's a backstage 'interview' with him on WWE.com where he's still said nothing.

Jericho can run his mouth off for hours yet said bugger all and still had the live crowd and TV audience eating out of his palm. It was brilliant to watch.

Re: Samoa Joe. He has Jason Koumas Syndrome. I get the impression he'd rather be a big fish in a small pond rather than step up a level and put in the effort to actually go on to achieve something.

This. Now I'm a Jericho fanboy so I found it brilliant, but my girlfriend was watching it with me and getting so pissed off it was unreal!

pfft, TNA did the young champions thing way before wwe did. in fact, in recent weeks the older guys have stepped back, with a few exceptions. things are looking up for TNA right now. but yes, boneduster is awful.

genesis was ok, x division stole the show. i would be quite happy for aries, kash and sorenson to keep going with the title for months. rumour is alex shelley is coming back now though and will most likely be put into the x division title picture almost immediately, which i would also be happy with.

didn't Viscera do something similar a few years back?


even so, nice to see something different rather than *insert generic gimmick here*

Yeah, in an age where we have pretty much everyone just go by their real names and play themselves, it's nice to finally see them not just make him a generic angry monster heel who smashes people for a few months, gets killed by Cena, then flounders.

I also will buy a 'Funkasaurus' t-shirt as soon as one becomes available.

That could have been good, the problem is that he's in a program with Cena, and therefore will be ultimately defeated.

I think WWE should hire Bootsy Collins or George Clinton to act as Broadus Clay's manager.
All right, so I MADE a mistake! ONE MISTAKE!
Can't a man start over?! Do I have to keep on PAYING?! HUH?!
Maybe I should make another mistake! ...maybe TWO more!
