HHH vs Benoit...again
Fifty Seven Minutes. That is how much time I had to sit through a horribly played out main event on RAW to see the highlight of the show. That is how long I had to struggle to stomach lunch and watch bad move after bad move from Triple H and seemingly old moves from Benoit. That is how long I had to wait to see Eugene come from the crowd and dismantle Revolution and cost Hungary Hungary Hippo (Triple H) the World Title. I knew it was going to happen but I just needed to see how they would do it. Well they did it like I thought they would. The messed up way.
Instead of having Triple H win the title and go on to face Orton and break up a horrible stable in Evolution, they had Benoit overcome the odds yet again and go on to face Orton at Summerslam and have HHH go on to face Eugene. What rookies they have writing over there at WWE. I would have had HHH feud with Orton over Orton taking the lay down and letting HHH get the title something like that and have Benoit sit out for a PPV to rest him or have him and Edge go for the Tag Titles again. Then have Orton vs. HHH at Summerslam and have Eric Bischoff add on that if anyone lays down they are fired and have him intro the special guest ref in Eugene but NO! that would make too much sense.
Smackdown to get rid of Crusierweight Title?
Shifting gears a little lets go over to Smackdown. Now I don’t know if you know it or not but Smackdown officals might remove the cruiserweights from the show. Now in my naïve opinion the only advantage that Smackdown has over RAW is the fact that Smackdown has the cruiserweights and John Cena but Cena will be for another update. Basically Smackdown killed the cruiserweights and made them the Heaveyweight bitches. I mean it’s like seeing Brock Lesnar taking on Rey Mysterio Jr. Totally massacre. Now instead of focusing on building up JBL, your current horrible champion how bout having a great matchup for the Crusierweight Title using Paul London, Billy Kidman, Rey Rey and Chaveo. That would be a good line up done right. Will WWE do it? NO! If they did would the right man win? No. They should give the title to London. Go look at any of his old TNA shit with Low Ki and AJ Styles and your jaw will drop.
Smackdown needs a good GM and all signs show that they aren’t going to have one. I think Shane O’Mac or the Billion Dollar Boob Job I mean Princess would have worked good but now it’s looking like...
!!SPOILER ALERT!!
Teddy Long
!!END OF ALERT!!
I don’t know how he will do but he is bound to do better then Angle but only time can tell us.
Next week I will tell you all exactly what Raw and Smackdown need to stay around and I will talk about WWE’s plan to sue the pants of e-feds.
