i don't know how they fix that, but 'memorable characters' isn't an area in which the WWE is lacking right now i don't think. i think he equates 'no one with face paint' with no memorable characters.

Of course if you randomly watch a show you're not gonna know who each character is the whole time. Did you really think you'd be able to differentiate between all the blonde long-haired wrestlers in the late 90's? Come on, give me a break.
Whatever show you try to watch, it'll take some time to know everyone's names and looks, that has nothing to do with how they look now, they look as people look in 2012, the wrestlers in the late 90's look different from the ones in the 80's too, times and accepted looks change.
Sjees.

I mean it's no longer the 80s or WWE New Generation era. But it's not like Attitude Era had that many gimmicks. Heck old school wrestling didn't have that many gimmicks either. It was just you know.. dudes from that era.

exactly. like i said, i think he just misses face paint. which match did he struggle to tell the wrestlers apart in? even the tag match featured very distinct looking people.
maybe you could confuse a few of people on the heel team of the tag match at mania... but that's it. there's no way you'd confuse anyone in any of the other matches, and there's no way you'd confuse anyone on the face team of the tag match with each other, or with one of the heels.
he claims he frequently lost track of who was who. i have to say bullshit to that. Punk / Jericho was the match with the two closest guys in size and shape, and one of them is covered in tattoos and one isn't.
Apart from that match and the El Generico opener, the rest of that card was complete shit.
Oh and the little kid getting in Haas's face was awesome too.

Nope, TMZ reports that due to outrage from REAL Marines (the ones he deserted) it was a mistake casting him in that role and have yanked him.
With good reason. That's pretty shameful shit.
Damn. That is some shit.

It really boggles my mind how even Randy decided to OK it. Hell, I heard he gets some shit for just going to Tribute to the Troops due to what he did. I think last year was his first time out there. Really foolish...

It sounds like he hasn't watched WWE since the 90's so he probably doesn't know about the brand split and how each show has it's own titles.
I do agree with him with in that this WM had pretty lackluster feuds.
The Steen match was pretty good, but after his performance on Day 1, it was a disappointment. I thought Jay Lethal's match was pretty good as well.
That last match really was something though.

Aw shit guys, since Mania and Raw are finished now, let's do our FAVE FIVES! Make sure you list some reasons with a synopsis!
1. Cody Rhodes
2. David Otunga
3. Mark Henry
4. Lord Tensai
5. John Cena...so help me god
Oh man quite the shakeup. I'll explain #5 first, since that's insane.
Cena is good on the mic when he isn't acting silly. That's all. I enjoyed his promo the other night, and I'm looking forward to where they take him. THAT'S ALL I MEANT.
Tensai looks like a lot of fun and I'm a Giant Bernard fan so that kinda skews my rankings. I'm confident his character will die quickly, but I can't help the bias!
Mark Henry and Punk put on a great match on Raw - which isn't the easiest thing for Mark to do. Instead of any kind of squash we saw a well-worked match with lots of good spots and ring psychology, and immediately restored Mark's credibility. Love his outfit now.
David Otunga continues to impress me in every way. No bib this week though.
Cody Rhodes still looks incredibly strong after being beaten. Nobody on the roster is as well rounded as him, imho.
Yours?

WWE turned another one
"Maven Huffman, the first season winner of WWF Tough Enough, was arrested on Monday on charges of using multiple doctors (aka doctor shopping) to gain prescriptions to controlled substances. The practice is against Florida law.
In Huffman's case, the authorities allege that he was using three Florida doctors to obtain prescriptions to Oxycodone and Hydrocone, scoring an estimated 1,000 pills. Huffman used multiple pharmacies to fill the orders.
Huffman was part of the first Tough Enough reality series cast when the show was airing on MTV. He worked on the WWF roster from 2001-2005, including winning the WWF Hardcore title at Wrestlemania 18, and since then has done some acting and work with the Home Shopping Network as an on screen host.
Huffman, 35, faces up to five years in jail, according to www.tmz.com, which broke the story. He is currently out on $2000 bond."

djsandman, you didn't take any pictures at the Smackdown tapings?
1. D-Bry (YES!)
2. Cody Rhodes (Guy has come into his charcter so well, he's the next big thing)
3. Ziggler (Solid, hopefully he'll get that final push soon)
4. AJ (50% of D-Bry's heel run is her doing, so fuck it, push this girl WWE!)
5. Punk (toned down maybe, but his matches make up for it, esp. the bouts with Bryan.)

I think he said he was going to Smackdown and then driving home, so he might be out for a while if he left today. I think knee was at the show as well, so maybe he got some pictures.

Top 3 wrestling-related items to watch on Wrestlemania weekend:
1) Monday Night RAW (for the crowd)
2) Ring of Honor Showdown in the Sun Part 2 (only for Richards vs. Elgin)
3) Wrestlemania XXVIII
There's something very wrong about that.
The absence of DGUSA shows on that list is borderline criminal. The second iPPV was great, and the first one was good from what I heard (I was at RoH Part 1 at the time). Hell, even the pseudo-house show special with CZW was a pretty good time.
