Boom, I'm good.
Dolph Ziggler as the 21st Century Nature Boy? Oh that could work.

| I'd rather they brought back a traditional belt like what they had years ago, from the 80s until late 90s, then they used a similar one until the early part of this century.
These gimmicky designs de-value the belt IMO.
I even prefer the bland WHC to the WWE title. Back, years ago, WWE/F championship belts always looked valuable and prestigious, now they just look like junk.

| Watched Slammiversary last night, wasn't expecting much but was very very impressed. 2 absolutely outstanding matches; Aries (Best wrestler in the world right now?) vs Joe and Styles/Angle vs Daniels/Kazarian as well as probably the best bit of storytelling I've seen in Bully Ray (Best Heel in wrestling.) vs Joseph Parks (Clearly Abyss, but fantastic acting from him)
Sting is the first TNA Hall of Famer, Christian made an appearance (Part of the Ric Flair HoF deal) and Crimson's streak was blown apart.
Del Rio out of the title match this weekend due to a concussion, Ziggler is the logical replacement IMO.

| Slammiversary was the best PPV they've done for a long time, lots of excellent wrestling.
In addition the Texas crowd was big and really loud, which helps the feel, energy, makes them look big time etc. I'm sure the wrestlers loved that. I found it much better to watch compared to an Impact Zone based show.
They need to cut down the number of PPV's slightly and then take them all on the road.

| "The Big Show hasn't been a threat since 1999"
That one line from Vince last night shows you in a nutshell what's wrong with WWE.
You've a PPV on Sunday and the head of the company buries one of the guys in the main event. Luckily, Show got a match with Kingston and came out of it looking like the monster heel that he needs to be going up against Cena.
Ziggler get's a World title shot. Now, I'm not knocking the guy cos I think he's one of the best workers WWE have right now, but he's something like 2 wins from 12 matches in the last month or so. Yes, I know Del Rio is only out due to injury, but still, WWE NEEDS to start protecting guys other than Cena and Orton.
And the worst thing was that Vader was more over than pretty much anyone else on last night's Raw

I'm not sure if that's the case. I think it's more there's nothing for Foley to do right now.
There's also the terrible segment he was in when he came back to WWE which might have left people wondering if Foley can still cut it.

| not gonna bother with OTL tonight.
cant see any new champions being crowned.
think punk will hold on til summerslam, and sheamus will probably beat ziggler unless for some reason gets disqualified.
christian will beat rhodes, who will probably move up the card a bit in future.
can see no way for big show to win, no way in hell will cena be fired. wouldnt be surprised in johnny tries to interfere and it backfires. plus, if cena was to lose, it'd be the 3rd time in last 4 ppv's for him to lose in the main event.

As a child, Vader was the only wrestler I was genuinely scared of.
A true Hall of Famer.

Oh, I wasn't knocking Vader. I was bemoaning the fact that a guy who's been off TV for a decade gets a bigger crowd response than the guys who show up on Raw every week.
OTL Wasn't the best PPV. Crowd just didn't seem into a lot of the matches, the pointless Tuxedo match got some loud boring chants.
WWE showed once again that titles aren't important. US champ in a non-title gimmick match against a jobbing ring announcer and the WWE title itself? Relegated down to 3rd on the card behind a squash match for someone who's going to be future endevoured in the next 12 months because no-one wants another Goldburg
Apparently Vince is the main reason for a lot of the angles not having the follow through because he can't remember what happened on the show 3 weeks ago, he feels that the fans won't remember either.

| OTL? Aren't we talking No Way Out guys!
I thought Christian v Cody and two title matches were good.
Big Show being screwed out of the cage match cost me some moolah! I noticed Paddy Power stopped taking bets a few hours before the event. Think the smarks got wind that Cena was due to win.
