Match was there.

Okay, now first off, reread this post if the latest in wrestling news won't appeal to you. Good? Now, from Scott Keith's recap of last night's Raw:

- Edge v. Kane. Nothing happening match rushed to the non-finish, as Snitsky draws the DQ. (Kane d. Edge, DQ, 2:00, DUD). The big story is that Matt Hardy hits the ring and attacks afterwards, drawing the biggest babyface reaction and biggest star reaction he's had in years. He grabs the mic and tells Edge that he's dead, Lita that she's a whore, and the WWE in general that they can kiss his ass and he gets as far as plugging Ring of Honor (I think) before the road agents tackle him and drag him out in handcuffs.

My predictive power remains outstanding, though attentive link-followers will note I've now claimed credit for anticipating the same storyline twice. (And that's the lake by Aaron's place at Lake Winnipesaukee, by the way. See, there's a raft from which to jump off.)

Грабителю сломали шею indeed

And you thought there was nothing to learn from pro wrestling. I told you in Japan they teach kids right:

Oh, I Never Would Have Guessed!

We talk about other things, I promise:


ThisOneKidMongo: hm, i'm going to estimate two weeks before edge and lita are together on screen
terrymcmahon312: yeah really
terrymcmahon312: then in six months they'll bring back matt hardy for a disappointing smark feud
ThisOneKidMongo: i can't wait!

Thank you Inside Pulse (yes, this blog is going to be a series of me admitting I read things):


It seems as the whole Lita/Edge/Matt Hardy love triangle, may make a turn to an actual on air storyline. With Edge and Kane (Lita's on air husband) in the main event on Monday's edition of Raw, it seems as Lita may get involved with Edge in an on air relationship.

...

There are also some reports that Vince McMahon may be interested in bringing Matt Hardy back, to make this an on air storyline. The chants in arena after arena are reportedly getting to him, and he is starting to realize that he made a mistake.

...

Lita is not in a relationship with either Matt or Edge, but is still on speaking terms with both of them. Edge, who originally saw all this has heel heat, has now changed his feelings on this, and now is very regretful about what has happened. Matt is still not talking to Edge.

Sure it's disappointing that I can now predict WWE's crappy storyline ideas, but if I let disappointment in WWE bring me down, I would have thrown myself off the top of a steel cage long ago. In case you can't guess, Lita and Matt Hardy were dating, and then Edge and Lita knocked boots, and since Edge and Lita are top talent (Matt Hardy should be, but isn't), Matt got fired. (I mean this all in real life, incidentally, not storylines.) The "chants" referred to above are "YOU SCREWED MATT" chants from the so-called ign'int fans every time Lita or Edge enters the ring. Completely ridiculous. Matt Hardy is a good wrestler with a great character, and he should be pushed more than any of the people fucking around with him. And that includes Vince McMahon.
