Back in Black

Well, there was a request for more than just movie and wrestling content on this web log, and I will endeavor to do this in the future but this post will be mostly wrestling.

I read Vince Russo's interview on 1wrestling and you can too by clicking here. If you even know the definition of the word wrestling you should read it.

I can not wait to see NWA: TNA this week. I hope I don't mess up again.

That brings me to WWE RAW. Vince McMahon came out and announced the end of the nWo and said Raw and SmackDown would have new General Managers. Later of we found out that Raw's General manager was none other than Eric Bishoff.

As I said before I was more of a fan of WCW than WWF, and Eric Bishoff was the one who was president of WCW and beat WWF for 84 straight weeks. He invented the nWo, the single greatest angle in wrestling history. In the middle of his streak of beating WWF he have the testicular fortitude to challenge Vince McMahon to a match at a PPV. And now he is with the WWE. It is moments like tonight, where something big happens "for real", that remind me why I love wrestling.

I do not know the extent of Erics creative position with the WWE, but I would be surprised if he is just "talent".

Now we have Vince McMahon, chairman of WWE, Eric Bishoff, former president of WCW, and Paul Hayman, former owner of ECW, three men who at one time where all competing against each other, all on the same team.

There is no excuse for WWE to continue with the average to sub-average product they have been delivering.

If NWA: TNA can get a Monday night slot to compete head to head with WWE, I would be the happiest man on earth.
