So the end of that show was totally fucking awesome! First time in literally years I was like "WTF" during a wrestling show! I'm liking some of the things creative is doing right now, as long as they continue to play them out the right way, which I know is probably asking too much from Creative. :/
And I'm with the dude that said he woulda marked out if he was at the show. Like obviously I'm not a dumb 7 year old and realize Cena isn't dying, but I woulda been like...dude...wtf just happened lol. The trashing of anything and everything is what really gave it that wow factor. Never seen a ring pretty much dismantled before. Justin Roberts getting stripped half naked and choked with his pink tie was pretty damn hilarious.
As for the Rampage thing, Rampage has always had an interest of getting involved in the wrestling business, namely WWE. But Triple H or Vince or someone completely blew him off at some publicity get together thing and it pissed Rampage off and soured him on wrestling for awhile, at least the business of it. And obviously they aren't going to give UFC a free 3-hour plug by hyping up Rampage as himself. They probably only agreed on him being on-screen if he only portrayed his movie character. Vince is smart, he knows Dana isn't hurting for money or ratings, so why help him out even more?
LOL! LadyHotRod I knew you'd freak the fuck out when I heard Piper's music hit. Not gonna lie, I went pretty fucking nuts too. It's too bad they didn't really let him do much, BUT giving Hot Rod the mic is ALWAYS a good decision. He was always the best.....the innovator of the promos and character skills we see on the mic and in promos today.
*Sidenote- why the fuck couldn't Cole have gotten his ass beat again!? Hopefully they reveal good ol' J.R. as their leader and take care of that loose end next week LOL!
