Bubba The Love Sponge On The Haiti Tragedy

I seriously hate this idiot, so damn much. His radio show is the most unfunny worthless crap I have ever listened to. I listen to Howard Stern all the time, and Bubbas idiotic show is on the same channel, so sometimes Bubba will be on when I get in the car and I wanna punch myself in the face for it. But whatever, what makes him a D-Bag today? It was this post on his Twitter account...

"I say fuck hati. Why do we have to take care of everybody our country is in shambles. Bubba"

Yeah. Really? Like... really? Bubba is like a lot of retards on the internet. They just wanna say something shocking and controversial so people will think, OH MAN HES SO CRAZY AND INTERESTING! Well guess what, its more like, OH MAN, WHAT A GIANT DICK FACE. Listen, Bubba The Fuck Rag, Our own country isn't in damn shambles. Everyone who cries and complains about the economy is an idiot. I am one of the many of Americans who have been laid off from their jobs, I have been out of work since July actually, and yet with a new car, a house, and a kid, I am still doing just fine. And no matter how crappy our country gets economy wise, it's still in better shape than the rest of the world.

The Dudley Boys got it all wrong, the Nasty Boys don't ride on Hogans coattails. Bubba does. More than anyone else.

TNA impressing......WWE Stagnant


For a long time now TNA has been happy with being an organization that put on good chain wrestling and subpar storylines for feuds. It is crystal clear that with one huge acquisition in Hulk Hogan, you can literally feel the passion in the business. As I watched IMPACT tonight, I can see that the story building is getting better and better each week now. (Not drastically but they are almost at par)

Perfect example is how IMPACT ended. Tomko (who i really can't stand....his promos are awful) loses to AJ Styles and then starts beating on him. Kurt Angle, who was watching the match, runs down and knocks Tomko out the ring. Kurt hands AJ his title, sticks out his hand in respect, and AJ walks right out of the ring. I literally stood and applauded in my house by myself (yep I did). The reason is because you have a two baby faces building up the heat the BEST possible way. Now they could have just shook hands and been "Man i respect you so much...goo goo ga ga" AJ walking right past Kurt builds the heat so much better because people love tension. AJ is saying, "Thanks for my belt, but that’s the only time you’re gonna touch it". I LOVE IT. Plus having Ric Flair on TNA has absolutely thrown me for a loop right now. NEVER saw that coming. TNA is taking chances, something the company was reluctant to do for a long time. One thing we know about Hogan and Bischoff is that they will have no problem taking chances. I'm looking forward to Angle and Styles at Genesis. Should be one HELL of a match!

On the flip side, WWE has done nothing special to wow us with in ring ability. It is what I said to a friend of mine last year. TNA needed WWE stories while WWE needed TNA's sense of urgency and desire. TNA got Hogan and Eric Bischoff, two men who know WWE stories better than most. While we are still watching DX (which has me yawning) and Super Cena who has his three moves of doom and will never give up....really. There are a couple things that WWE has me interested in however. One is Bret Hart being an active part of Monday Night Raw feuding with Vince till Wrestlemania. This story has been long coming and has the potential to being one of the greatest endings to possibly the most controversial feud in wrestling history. The other is the push Sheamus is getting. He has the physical presence of that the Ultimate Warrior had but is better on the microphone by a looooong shot. I honestly thought Cena was going to regain the title, but now that Randy Orton is the challenger, which I think is absolutely a brilliant feud in the making, this means SPOILER ALERT Cena is going to win the Rumble....not really a shock since Vince loves Captain Hustle. If Sheamus continues to get a push all the way to Wrestlemania, there is hope WWE will start thinking of better house shows and TV events. Of course since Raw got a 3.7 rating this week, Vince won’t change much. Which means….yippee….another celebrity guest host.

Right now my hat is tipped to TNA. Thank you for trying to bring wrestling back to its glory days. I hope you continue to get better each week and force Vince to rethink his strategies a bit. But there is only one way for that to actually happen isn’t it fans? The answer? EVERYONE TUNE IN TO IMPACT ON THURSDAYS!

Who Could TNAs Big Talent Acquisition Be?!

This Sunday at TNA Genesis, it is Hogan and Erics first PPV for TNA. And they have a big mystery talent acquisition lined up, so lets take a look at some possibilities...

Highly Doubtful, but ya never know...

THE ROCK
Yeah, this is a long shot. But, The Rock has denied hosting Raw, and has been ducking and not getting back to Vince who is really trying for a Cena vs Rock match at Wrestlemania. Could it be he might be coming to TNA?

Another Old Timer?

MACHO MAN RANDY SAVAGE
Could Macho be returning to TNA? Doubtful.

Maybe, just maybe....

ROB VAN DAM
This seems like it'd be a good bet, but I still dunno.

It'd be a safe bet!

KENNEDY
This seems like the most likely choice, over anyone, I would be putting my money on Kennedy showing up at Genesis.

Stone Cold to Guest Host Raw!!!


It's a fact. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin will man the helm on March 15th, two weeks before Wrestlemania XXVI. I understand this this isn't going to be like any other Stone Cold visit in years prior. I doubt there will be beer guzzling. I know for a fact that there will not be finger gesturing. Maybe a stunner or two, but I am still excited.

Now, I'll be the first to tell you that I wasn't a huge Stone Cold fan during the attitude era, which is preposterous considering he was the face of WWF during that time. I don't know what changed my mind. Maybe the fact that it seemed WWE was trying to put Cena in a position that would seem he was the man taking over, but I, personally am excited to see "The Texas Rattlesnake" back, even if the venoms gone if you will.

Its also a breathe of fresh air having a pro wrestler host, with the disgrace McMahon is putting before us in regards to his guest hosts. For God sakes, freakin' Napoleon Dynamite is hosting! The Guys from "Psych" are too. Its just a disgrace personally, that Vince is trying so hard to push away from the wrestling business. It truly is sad.

So back to my topic, Austin 3:16 is back. Hell yeah!

Tyson Returns but no "Cold Stone"


Ah here we go again. Another "ingenious" decision by Vince McMahon to invoke on another quest for rating dominance. This angle is brought to you by unimaginative CEO's: Where ideas are not original, they are refurbished!

Vince has made a celebrity guest host on Raw this week(surprise). It is none other than former "baddest man on the planet" Mike Tyson. This is yet again another attempt on rekindling old story lines from the glory days of WWE. This just makes you want to cry in excitement right? Well, maybe crying from yawning so hard your tears ducts fill and stream down your cheek.

For those who do not know the story behind Mike Tyson and WWE, (Since a lot of people were asking who Bret Hart was last week), Here is a summary:

At the 1998 Royal Rumble Mike Tyson was in the press box watching the match. Stone Cold Steve Austin eliminated the Rock to win his second Royal Rumble and would go on to Wrestlemania to fight for the WWE Championship. After Stone Cold won Mike Tyson was interviewed, called Stone Cold "Cold Stone", I laughed myself pink and side note, Shawn Michaels beat Undertaker for the title. The story was for Mike Tyson to be the Guest Referee at Wrestlemania fourteen and be perceived as a Member of Degeneration X. Austin went into the match a huge underdog, but in the end came out on top thanks to Mikey turning on Shawn.

It was a good storyline and it kept a lot of people interested during the time. Vince obviously feels that since Mike was seen in the big movie hit "The Hangover" he could ride the curtail of the publicity. Bringing Tyson back really isn't the issue for me and some fans, its the elongated plot of the guest host every week. Yes I admit i was excited when i saw Bret last week, but its because he is a WRESTLER. If you have Stone Cold host I'll watch. Even if The Rock hosts, if he isn't too busy retrieving teeth....Really Dwayne? "Tooth Fairy"? COME ON! The point is this, Vince needs to focus on the core values of professional wrestling otherwise his product will continue to become stale, rigid and without character.

He is pushing younger talent. That is an upside for the company. Yet the problem still remains with poor stories for talented characters. There is little to no chain wrestling and matches are no longer than 6-7 minutes! The pay per view matches are decent but even some of them run only 15 minutes long. What happened to iron man matches? Bret and Shawn were talking about their 60 minute Iron man match last Monday and you literally hear the crowd getting fired up about it. Yet instead we have Triple H playing fetch with Hornswoggle. It's not funny, it's not cute and its certainly not what DX used to be. More importantly its not what this business used to be. Vince thinks what we mean by what it "used" to be is the storylines he did back in the day. No Vince what we mean is good chain wrestling with spots that are entertaining and make the crowd pop. Undertaker and Shawn had the greatest match of all time last year at Wrestlemania and its because the two worked the spots to near perfection. McMahon needs to have all the talent watch that match over and say, "Aspire to do that every night you go out". That is what is needed on Monday's Tuesday's Thursday's and Friday's Vince. Get the young guys motivated to perform and not just sell themselves on the Microphone. Push the talent to be better wrestlers!

Bringing back Mike Tyson could be good for ratings but lets be realistic here. Mike is a product of an athletic brand that is near extinction. Many kids watching wrestling now don't even know WHO Mike Tyson is. (He had a video game for the regular Nintendo remember? Mike Tyson Punch Out thats how long ago). It is safe to say that WWE Monday night Raw has become a laughing stock of what it used to be. Unfortunately, Vince sees the cash flowing in regardless of wrestling fan pleas and that my friends means business will continue as usual.
