Road Warrior Animal is his brother…. Johnny Ace is credited with inventing The Ace Crusher, more famously known as The Stone Cold Stunner.

Part of the problem with The Miz is Creative doesn't know WTF to do with him, plus his character hasn't really changed all the much. Even at this stage, however, he's still faring better than his former partner, John Morrison (who everyone said would be the bigger star when they were split up).

As for the GM issue, they should each have a wrestler represent them in the ring; Laurenaitis would have Otunga, and Long would have a wrestler of his choice. (Drew McIntire, anyone?) Beats the hell out of Teddy trying to wrestle a former Tag Team Champion like Laurenaitis (remember, he was Road Warrior Animal). To make this even more interesting, maybe Vicki Guererro can have Dolph Ziggler in on the match as well, for her bid to become GM. Just a thought.

A heel Evan Bourne? If he has as much personality as he did in WSX (as Matt Sydal), I'll take a pass. That is, unless they bring in Lizzy Valentine as his annoying girlfriend.

I agree, smackdown sucks at this Time.
T.L. should run both shows and pleaze fire this J. Ace ass…. The Drew Barrymore Story is boring as hell. Santino is funny but no wrestler. Hope the next month brings something new…

I think I can answer your (very legitimate) gripe about the titles and champions made to look weak on occasion. The Tag titles (much like the divas title, or any title in WWE when it isn't considered important by the higher-ups) is only defended when there is legitimacy for it. And when creative doesn't care about the titles enough, the only legitimacy is a fluke victory over the champions, followed by them retaining in the title match. Unfortunate, yes, but alas that is the reality in which we are currently living

Take away the main event and you'd never know WM 28 is only a couple of weeks away. The Drew McIntyre crap is a waste of time. Mark Henry beating Ezekial Jackson is pointless. If there is gonna be a title match for the tag team titles, than what are they waiting for to announce it? And if the champions will defend the title at WM 28, then why are they losing matches. The champions, whether they will successfully go on to defend the title or not, need to go into the match looking strong. But since when does the WWE know how to book anything the right way these days? Dolph Ziggler is being wasted big time. Santino Marella continues to act like a total goofball. In other words Smackdown Sucks!

I hope Long gets to be manager of both brands,and atleast gives Drew one more change to beat an opponent actually his size,and gets his job back.Would finish a great angle for Drew losing job storyline:-}

If they are not involved in the GM match I think a Santino vs Ziggler match at Mania for the title would be fun to watch. Ziggler doesn’t really need the United States title at this point but he deserves a spot on the card and doesn’t have anything better to do at the moment.

Honestly I think Miz just needs the right change of character to get back to a main event spot. As for Kane VS Orton it sounds like a good feud idea because of how they’re both portrayed as psychotic merciless and demented. Then finally the GM feud I like the idea but why not make it Team Teddy against Team Johnny, that would keep them out of action but still make a good storyline.

"As usual, you got it half right" – I don't think Rock's error is going after Cena, I think it's his dogmatic shtick that he can't get out of. Once Cena called him out on it, he squirmed. He's good at what he does, but in that regard he's sort of a "one trick pony" nowadays. It really isn't very hard to pull out a great generic promo when you've got the lineage of The Rock, whether you "still got it" or not. Cena studied Rock's promo work and saw through it – and Rock had no trick to add actual substance to his promo.

As for Cage matches – the door was implemented for Super Heavyweights who couldn't climb. However, if you have pinfalls and submissions, the (very unrealistic) door becomes redundant, and should be put out of it's misery. Sorry, THE VIEWER's misery.

As for the McIntyre angle – We don't know that it's over yet. We'll see where it goes next week.

And we'll unite against the common enemy, Matt… FOR NOW. Once Bryan is out of the way, THEN I'll kick your donkey (synonym for the word I wanted to use) and claim AJ's heart, as I rightfully should.

As for the main event, I think you missed some of the brilliant psychology in the match. EVERYTHING made sense, and the fact that they managed to wrap all of that up into a 6 man tag was brilliant. Seriously, go back and watch it looking for amazing in-ring psychology – I have no doubt you'll find it.
