Mostly wrestling

redfiona99Although first news of a truly fucked up dream, wherein Mother Dearest was pregnant and getting married to Kid Rock.
Yeah, I'm thinking of checking what I ate before bed and swearing never to eat it again.

But on to wrestling. First Smackdown
I'm not so sure on how I feel about the Major Brothers not being that anymore because I can't tell them apart to save my life.
Edge was definitely over as a heel in our household. Grandmother and Mum both disapprove of him deeply.
Nan adores Finlay and Hornswoggle. While their segments may be purile, at least they're fun.
I am just in love with Flair's promo. And psyched up for him v HHH, because their is absolutely no way Flair should win, and HHH won't dare show even a moments mercy because Flair wouldn't ever forgive him if he did, and yet I totally want him to win. And the crowd are going to eat this up.
I sadly feel that I don't give a damn about Kane etc.
Random Santa match was at least amusing. Does anyone know why I constantly feel I recognise Jesse?
Is it too late in the year to put votes in for best promo of the year because JBL's was wonderful. I mean, more wonderful that he normally is, right from getting up saying 'this is going to be the biggest comeback since the resurrection.' I really did think that nothing on the planet could make me cheer for his opponent then I saw the clip from RAW and OMG Jericho, please win to take that obnoxious smile off the jerk's face.
Jamie Noble on a date is exactly as incompetant as could be hoped for. Seriously, who do I have to kiss on the writing committee for that?
There was further meh in the title match, other than is it me or has Edge lost a tonne of weight? It might just be me, or the new TV screen because I thought HHH and Christian had too.
Then I watched Bottom Line and mostly everything I wish to say can be conveyed with the non-spoilery I <3 Jericho, Flair, JBL. See also, OMG wonderful promo.
Also really cool ending for the Flair v Umaga match, because Umaga pretty much defeated himself. Great bit of writing to keep Flair's storyline going and not make Umaga look weak.
Saw some of TNA but in the usual way (i.e. chaotic due to shopping) so it was even crazier than usual even if I wish to face-palm severely over the main event of the Christmas episode
No matter how damn good AJ is in the aftermath, you do not have two of the best, most awesome-est X-division types nearly break themselves in a ladder match for nothing.
Okay, so I admit to a personal aversion to ladder matches because of the danger aspect, but really, I don't think I'm being extreme in any way.
Also Eric Young is adorable.
I also caught the one before Turning Point (hence at least part of the confusion) and just want to say how damn good AJ and Tomko are. Tomko just does world-weary so well, and AJ's so earnest.
I also really want to punch Team 3D in the mouth for talking smack about the X-division.
