I still can't decide if I loved this...or this was the worst break of Kayfabe I've ever seen. Maybe a little of both. It made the whole episode feel weird....like Twin Peaks weird...

Year End Musings
The Year End. Supposedly The End of The World Review.
Let’s see…In the real world Rusty is having a massive feud with his basement. Or in French….Les Sous Sol. (I don’t know any other languages…) That’s a pretty big feud. We all know who will prevail.
The Marshall is supposedly feuding with boxes in his big move. Is moving a mid-card heel or a jobber….can’t quite decide.
The Poncho Man has been completely off tv. He did go see Colt Cabana in Keizer, Oregon…and got paid to do it. Mr. Cabana was a gentleman, and it was incredible to see someone up close easily show how much better he is than everyone else, and I like DOA’s wrestlers. Poncho has also stayed completely up to date on WWE, Chikara, Dragon Gate USA, and is currently in the middle of watching ROH’s Final Battle. I’m not sure where everyone else is at….I have a hard time talking about wrestling without spoilers so please, PLEASE feel free to skip paragraphs. I will also not talk about specific events….I didn’t take notes so I have no idea when and where I watched all of these things. Anyway…enjoy.
The Shield. Jim Ross said on his website something about “Way to maximize your minutes.” The PPV match was incredible. All three of these guys just look incredible. It’s almost like Nexus was a trial run to figure out how to get it right this time. “The bump” was CRAZY! Flashed to an article on Grantland.com by The Masked Man talking about how Seth Rollins could be an amazing mix of CM Punk and Jeff Hardy. Basically what WWE wants Justin Gabriel to be…but he has one move and doesn’t seem legitimately tough at all. Every time I hear Ambrose I look up at the Brian Pillman action figure on my wall. Great Stuff guys!
The Death Of Sapphire. The best storyline I’ve seen in wrestling this year was undoubtedly Chikara’s story of The Mysterious and Handsome Stranger. I kind of got parts of this spoiled for me because I watch lots of Chuck Taylor videos (The Swamp Monster was very very sad). Mr. Touchdown is the most awful person. I can’t wait to hear what The Marshall has to say about Under The Hood (Chikara‘s Season Finale). I felt a little let down except for The Stranger. It seemed like the storylines weren’t coming to a conclusion like I thought they would.
The Antonio Cesaro Push. HELL YES!!! This has been one of my favorite things on WWE programming. He gave Ryback his two best matches he has ever had. Even with one of them being a count out. Cesaro really is a step above almost everyone else. He really does make whoever he’s facing look more legit and gets himself over at the same time.
Ziggles and Company. I do like the fact that we’re getting a weird motley crew of a stable. I do like the fact that they fixed the RyBLACK problem with making Big E a Batista style enforcer. I like AJ being a heel. I don’t like that this seemed so random. NXT is my second favorite WWE (well maybe tied with Main Event) and I’m confused that both Rollins and RyBLACK are faces on NXT. I know NXT is taped two months out, but this is like the main problem I have with editorial in Comic Books. We all work at the same company, probably in the same building, but we don’t discuss anything so it will make sense to readers. Does this mean Kassius Ohno will be a face when he gets called up. Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper will probably end up being watered down Festus.
Cody Rhoades is now more dashing than ever. Nuff’ Said.
Cibernetico Rises. I actually watched this a few weeks ago. I really liked this. It got me sooooo pumped for Under The Hood. Gotta love Tim Donst. Then I realized I’m still not a Eddie Kingston mark. Cabana for Grand Champion! Loved that it was ROH vs. Chikara. Nice way to give the rub to 3.0 (slowly becoming one of my favorite teams because they seem so random) with them eliminating the Briscoes. Oh and Kevin Steen and the Young Bucks’ promo about this event was hilarious.
The Return Of Ric Flair. How about it? I hope I didn’t ruin anyone’s day by kinda spoiling this weeks ago here on the blog. I had no idea when this was happening, but Flair had recently said “I can’t wait to get back to work.” PLEASE make him a manager. Pretty please! This man needs wrestling and he needs to be used. I don’t even care who you put him with. Put him with Kofi and I’ll probably suddenly become a huge Kofi mark. Kofi can probably jump as high as Space Mountain.
Currently watching Bo Dallas attempt Sliced Bread #2 on The Big Show. HA!
Generico vs. Steen: Ladder War IV. Crazy brutal ladder match. Totally on par with the rest of their feud. Generico really is one of the best in the world. Ole!
Okay….I think I’m done. It’s now a few days later and Christmas Eve. I haven’t watched wrestling since Thursday. I’m currently waiting for the new Raw….even though it was filmed last week…so I’m sure nothing cool happened. Let’s figure out when we’re doing the marathon. Give Rusty a back rub so he isn’t so stressed out. Poncho Out.

WWE TLC 2012
Well, life has been pretty shitty around here lately. With the collapse of the foundation and the usual stress from the holidays things have been rough. And for some reason when things get rough for me the last thing i want to do is watch wrestling. Wrestling, to me, is a way to relax and escape. When I'm too nervous or upset i cant get in the mood to watch wrestling. I dunno why. I just only want to watch it when I can let myself really get into it. So I missed TLC and the Slammys due to LIFE. But It;s sunny out today, I took the day off (even tho we are looking forward to at least 15 grand in repairs) and I plan on catching up on wrestling. Even if it means I gotta skim some matches. So without further ado.
WWE TLC 2012
I always get creeped out with bell salutes. This one was so sad. I am glad they did it tho. I think it shows respect that they acknowledge real life
RRHODES SCHOLARS VS MYSTERIO SIN CARA
I skipped this one. I'm sure it was great but I gotta get to the important story stuff.
US CHAMP MATCH
shipped
DOLPH ZIGGLER PROMO
Man. another great promo from Dolph. I feel like he just needs a few tweaks to his personality and he could be huge. The show off thing is not working. I feel like he could be a cocky face and get over more.
MIZ TV
I was going to skip this because I think Miz TV totally sucks bad. But when he brought out the 3mb i was hooked. What a horrible group! I love them. And Im glad I watched the whole segment because I got to see Del Rio turn face, which I think is great and weird.
WADE VS KOFI
Skipped
THE SHIELD VS RYBACK< KANE< DBD
AWESOME! What a mess! I think everyone looked great and this had lots of brutal spots. And thank god the shield won. I was worried about that.
DIVA MATCH
skipped
BIG SHOW VS SHAEMUS
SKIPPPPPEEEEEDDDDDDD
3MB VS MIZ ADR BRAWLER
This was fun even tho it was stupid and a waste of the ADR face turn. Plus miz still sucks bad and hard. I had a feeling we would see the Brawler on this show so that was cool. For reasons unknown i really liked him when i was a kid and had no idea he was a jobber.
CENA VS DOLPH
This is a weird throw away ppv. It has had some cool moments but jeez. Strange main event. I really wish they only did 4 to 6 a year. That would make them so much more exciting.
Holy cow! Great match! I loved it. Cena, for being stupid and dumb, can work if he is wrestling people who can wrestle. Man, great match. And the end was what I wanted out of the final minutes of a PPV. Good twist! And I think Zigglers stock jumped a notch tonight. He may finally be on his way. I hope so anyway.
IN FINAL> I likes some of the ppv. But it's hard to care a whole lot when the rumble is a month away
TILL NEST TIME!!!!
