So I have been away from this blog business for a couple weeks, the reason being that Blogger (The blog site I had been using) has been freezing and not letting me post anything. This has been super duper frustrating, but the show (or blog) must go on! I have switched over here to Word Press to start a new blog. I have put my older blogs on here as well, so if you want to go back and look at those, please do! I am going to use this post to catch up on things I missed in the past couple weeks (trust me there were a lot).
- Darren Young (guy on the right) came out as the first openly gay WWE Superstar after TMZ asked him if he thought someone in the business would be able to be gay and successful. He said he was (though he is a jobber) and the WWE supported him. They supported him so much that they gave him and his partner Titus O’Neil a big push. The Prime Time Players have been winning matches every week now. I’m fine with them pushing the two (I like them both) but I hope they are pushing them because of their talent and not so the WWE doesn’t look bad having the gay guy always lose.
- Daniel Bryan and John Cena had a great match at Summer Slam, and Bryan actually won the title (I figured this because Cena was injured and needed to come out to have surgery). What happened after the match was the story though. Randy Orton tried to cash in his Money in the Bank contract, but Bryan still looked like he had fight in him. The special guest referee, Triple H, went to shake Bryan’s hand, but instead delivered a pedigree (his finishing move) and called Orton in the ring. Orton then cashed in and stole the title from Bryan. A lot of people (internet fans) were pissed that their champion was dethroned and screwed, but I was MARKING OUT! It was such a cool and unexpected moment that they were teasing at the end of the match, and when it happened I freaked out. A great moment that has set up a great story! Orton and Triple H are actually interesting again!
- Now history repeats it’s self a little, Stone Cold Steve Austin (The outlaw) went against Vince McMahon and the ways of the WWE in the Attitude Era, and now Daniel Bryan has his own fight. Triple H screwed Bryan because of his size and look (the look and attitude was like stone cold), and that is why he made Randy Orton the champion (has the look). Triple H hates Orton (Orton once kissed and RKOed Stephanie McMahon (His wife) in front of Triple H), but will put that aside for the good of the company. So now the McMahons are together against Bryan as he tries to get his title back. He also has to go through the McMahon’s muscle, The Sheild (they had nothing else to do, but it doesn’t make sense because they are against the corporation), so all the odds are stacked against him. This should lead to some great story lines.
- AJ cut an awesome promo on the whole cast of Total Divas, saying that they did not deserve to be in the WWE (which for most of them that is true). It was exciting to actually mark out for a diva or a women’s wrestler (which AJ is instead of a diva).
- Paul Heyman and CM Punk’s story line has been gold. Punk and Brock Lesnar had a great match at Summer Slam and the story is still fresh. Punk and especially Heyman are great actors that fuel this story of a son betraying his father figure or vice versa. Good stuff people!
- Thank you for the read! I am going to try to do the blog as much as I did before, but here on Word Press. I am a little rusty at blogging and it was hard to think of the top things to recap, but it will be back to normal soon! Word Press is also a lot different than Blogger, so I am also catching up on that! So please follow the blog, tell your friends and have a great day! YES! YES! YES! YOU KNOW IT!
