People like the good news and therefore shout it out loud: He saved Jake and was saving Scott, and dislike the bad, and therefore sweep it under the rug: Scott slid back into old bad habits.
(if indeed that is what Scott has done, coz I don't know too much about it)

TBH it's nowhere near the dumbest thing Storm has said. I can understand being upset about something you perceive as someone disrespecting your dead friend, even if it might not actually be the case.

Yeah, considering that Lance Storm cosiders Libraries to be stealing money from authors, and Cancer research to be a corporate scam, being a little oversensitive about a dead friend is the least of his faults.

Lance Storm is a trainer. A good one too, (he and Finlay are partly responsible for teh good womens matches WWE used to have with Lita, Trish, Molly Holly et al). Just saying.

I mean, the wrestlers being subjected to stern humourless rants on why libraries and cancer research are bad, is much better than wrestlers shoving their donut covered arses in each others faces before being yelled at and slapped by a bitter old fat man for wanting a rest.

^^^^^^ I loved the Soaring Eagle. Especially when it got injured and Swagger had a promo about how it wasn't a real eagle, but a man in an eagle suit ^^^^^^^^^

Miz is great as a chickenshit heel. Miz is great in the midcard.

The problem comes when WWE sees Miz being a great midcard heel, and try and make him a face, or try to put him in the main event.

In short Miz has a place, and in that place he is awesome, out of that place he is awful.

To make a long story short, since KOP is one of my favorite town names outside of Horseheads, NY, there was a tavern in the area called King of Prussia in the 1700s (named to drive interest from German soldiers), and as a township grew around it, they adopted the name.

What is the local high school's football mascot? The Kings, or The Prussians?

But NXT is for *good* wrestlers. Eva Maries stinkiness would be seen especially in comparison to Bayley, Charlotte et al.

I still don't get the pettiness of "She's trying to better herself in her profession. Boo!" that is coming across from the other divas tweets.

Not to get all political up in here, but I do.

Not all racism is "I hate the niggers and the kikes, and outrightly state they are subhuman scum!!!", some is a little more subtle.

Now JR is an old man, but saying someone is a credit to their race is like saying someone is "one of the good ones". Implying everyone else of that race is somehow bad.

He pulled up on it, and I would be surprised if he meant it in any malicious way, but its the little insidious racisms like that that people need to be called out on, so they can realize that they are being unwittingly racist, and change their behaviour.

The more WWE tries, (or in this case pretends to try), to make it's women, (whoops Divas), seem important, the more it makes them seem irrelevant and subpar.

On the womens stuff, I suppose if one were to be glass-half-full about it, I suppose these 6 woman tags, and 3 girl teams etc get a lot more women on screen more often than the usual Diva roundabout where its 1 or 2 women again and again.

That has to be helping with the pay discrepancy, which was the thing AJ whinged at Stephanie about on twitter.

WWE hosed up Mizdow by blowing off the match where he turned on Miz.

The crowd were literally baying for him to turn on Miz, and Miz was wonderful in getting heat for both of them by stopping Sandow from getting in the ring/aping him. It was a glorious burn and if they had done the turn, and resulting fued right it would have made Sandow, if not a star then at least a whole lot bigger than he is.

Instead, they have the Miz vs Mizdow match on a PPV pre-show where he loses, and proceed to do nothing with him afterward.

The Macho Mandow/AxelMania stuff had the potential to be cool, as both performers were fun and goofy in those roles, but then HH ruined that by hating black people.
