I love how he's putting off his wig, only to show that he's wearing another one underneath it. :lol:

RAW's shown a day late here so I haven't seen it yet, but I did catch some of the confrontation on Sportscenter. I think Vince is in the right on this one, but that segment...a tad immature, even for him.

And besides, don't fuck with John Cena. He's a bad, bad man.

Further info on Christian changing the name of his finisher, taken from the new issue of the WWE Magazine courtesy of WNW:

I never liked the name Unprettier because it's grammatically incorrect... just kidding. The real reason is that the name started off as a joke with the Hardys; one day, while the TLC song "Unpretty" was playing in the background, I said out loud, "I'm going to call my move the Unprettier because when I hit you with it, it makes you feel so damn unpretty." Then an announcer said the name on the air and it stuck. To me, though, it's a vicious move, and "Unprettier" never matched the move's sheer impact. For all this time, I've wished I could change it, and my return to WWE offered the perfect opportunity. But I don't know how I came up with the name Killswitch; it just hit me one day.

Yeah "Unprettier" may have stuck and it stuck real well. It's just that the move's name was used long enough and to have it suddenly changed doesn't seem to feel right.

I guess, but I've always felt the name was a bit awkward so I don't mind the change.

Probably Punk's entrance theme by Killswitch Engage.

Possibly, though it's not like they coined the word.

So as we all know, Mr. Kennedy made his return last Monday on Raw after being out for idk how long.
And guess what, in his first match back, he injured himself again, this time spraining his wrist after taking an RKO from Orton.

And now: bam!

The factor that made WWE do this wasn't as much Kennedy's injury but rather that he and Orton had some heat about him almost reinjuring Orton's shoulder in a suplex.

the difference in quality between the last episode of raw and smackdown is pretty rediculous.

It's not altogether surprising on one hand given his injury problems and some comments he made criticising the Wellness Policy probably didn't help his stock either. However, I would've thought they'd be open to using him in a non-wrestling role, either moving him into commentary as they did with Matt Striker or even giving him a managerial role as his mike skills would make him a perfect mouthpiece for a heel wrestler. I guess they just ran out of patience and if there was some heat with Orton then that wouldn't have helped either.

the blond haired midget is what ruining my roh experience. could you talk in a more less enthausiastic way? I doubt it. and what is with lifting up your eyebrows whenever you talk to the other commentater. just go fuck yourself.

oh and kevin steen. it's awesome that you think you are hulk hogan, brett hart and the great muta all rolled into one, but I am not buying it,

Man, Smackdown needs some credible wrestlers in it. The matches are becoming repetitive every week.

Edit: The Extreme Rules was not that extreme.

MVP vs Kofi vs Regal vs Hardy match: 1.5 star

Jericho[/b] vs Mysterio match: 2 stars

CM Punk vs Umaga match: 2 stars

Santina(o) vs Vickie/Chavo match: .5 star (waste of air time)

Dreamer vs Christian vs Swagger match: 2 stars

Cena Vs Big Show match: 1 star (boring)

Batista vs Orton match: 2.5 stars

Edge vs Jeff match: 3.5 stars

Punk vs Jeff match: 5 stars! :mrgreen:

At least Tommy is now champion. And I hope they revert back to the old ECW Belt (which I believe they won't do). Same with the WWE Belt. (which I believe they still won't do.)
