WWE conditioned them not to appreciate something like this. It is going ot take awhile to educate them. Having commentators who don't have a clue doesn't help either.

Please. The Miz will never come close to The Rock. Hell, Miz is pretty much copying all of Rock's shit. That's not "awesome" to me.

Remember when we were all acting like this after Kofi's breakout promo?

What did they do with him after that?

Yeah. Expect the same with Miz. :\

Morrison wishes he got the reaction Miz gets.

I think Morrison has lost momentum due to the WWE really having nothing lined up for him. He feuded with Ziggler for months then that just kind of ended and then he started the feud with Drew, and they are both fine, but this is a dude who was fighting world champions over the summer, and it just kind of feels like his wheels are spinning in the mud.

I don't think he can cut an extended promo like the Miz, but he doesn't need to. He plays his role pretty damn well, and his interaction with Drew on this past Smackdown was well done.

Miz is easily the most improved WWE wrestler since last year's draft. Everyone (including myself) assumed he would be completely buried. But he's changed his look to something more appealing, impressed on the mic, diversified himself in the ring, and got over when a lot of others can't draw a reaction to save their life.

Frankly that Miz promo deserved some "Holy Shit!" chants from those wannabe Smarks in the audience.

Did TNA wake the beast?

I think I am turning off Raw now, and ending on a high. This Hart stuff wont top it (unless they involve The Dynasty), and the DX stuff (with midget) will just make me angry

edit - it is Maryse, okay I will stay!

So The Miz will get a huge PPV victory where he pins two world champions in ten seconds, put the most over heel in the company through a table at Madison Square Garden, and then get put into a #1 contenders match for the WWE championship?

When I hear this I point to the Christian return on ECW. Awesome intro ruined by announcers.

Honestly, JR did a hell of a job selling the matches and the storylines. If something was good, he would make it sound like the greatest thing ever. Cole can't and never will be able to do that.


Edit - Is Vince wearing the same suit as last week?

He beat Randy a few weeks back, which I wish he would have pointed out in the opening showdown instead of saying "I probably don't deserve to be here but..."

I never thought after WM14 that I would EVER see Mike Tyson, and Shawn Michaels in the same ring again. I'll never forgive Tyson for the quick count.

To bad there isn't some sort of tag team that can be associated with Bret HART, and another tag team who has the titles that where both involved in the screwjob. But hey, these things don't always work out.

No offense but do people watch SD. Morrison gets one of the biggest face pops on Friday nights. He can just appear on screen and get a reaction. He has plenty of "momentum".


That's a problem with a lot of fans. They have no patience at all. Morrison loses a match, he is a jobber. Kofi loses a match. Jobber. Miz, Punk, Wolfe, Dinero, make a list. If they lost a match, they are now in trouble.
