I'm not positive it's Baby Doll, but toward the end of the video, Jim Cornette calls her Baby Doll and she was blond, so I thought it might be...

It's Baby Doll, apparently.

They were getting face pops because they were putting women through tables period, not just Mae. Although the first Powerbomb on Mae Young was surreal, the one off the stage was uncanny. Lita, Trish, Terri, Tori, etc. It was the whole "euphoric stare!" era of the Dudleys. Pretty crazy to think that a heel tag team would get face pops for beating up women, especially when some of the women, like Lita, were fan favorites... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsWt_Gh-n9A

I am really happy that Kaitlyn won WWE NXT Season 3. I was sold after her Halloween costume was Vickie Guerrero. Granted Kaitlyn is dreadful in the ring but this is the WWE "Diva" division (if she works at all) and the last thing that matters there is wrestling talent. She is entertaining (at least to me) so I think she will do well. As long as there is room for people like Kelly Kelly and Melina, Kaitlyn should be fine. I also want to say that although I was not thrilled with how it made Wade Barrett look, I was pretty happy to see The Miz win the WWE title. Talk about a strong year for him! He has definitely come a long way.

I watched the TNA PPV last night with three of my friends. It was...not good. Even worse than the show though was the shitty service from Time Warner. Of course the PPV feed was messed up. So after calling and ensuring that due to the fucked up feed that we were not going to be billed for the show, suddenly the show being lackluster was not so bad! There's so much wrong with TNA that it is not even funny to joke about anymore. I could complain about stuff all day but I think the most annoying thing right now is how much damn TV time Eric Bischoff is getting...

I will be happy when all of this crap is finally over. Who knows how long after the election, win or lose, that will take though...

Well, I mean, she's really bad, so maybe that is the reasoning? I would even say Kelly Kelly is more entertaining than Melina nowadays. Yeah, I went there. Melina just seems like a liability to me and probably should have been fired a long time ago.

The cut away too fast after the match, I think. It was too important that they get that STAND UP FOR WWE! shill video in there. They should have showed a replay of Morrison pulling Santino away (if he did) and then shown more of the reactions from both Santino for winning and of Sheamus for losing. Ya know? Just poorly executed. As it stands, it looks like Santino just pinned the former WWE champion.

No one. They're putting him in a program with Morrison. Morrison caused him to lose to Santino tonight. Listening to Meltzer and Alverez talk about it is hilarious, as neither of them saw that Morrison saved Santino in the corner, leading to the fluke win. It's funny because I didn't see Morrison do that either, which isn't surprising because Morrison sucks at his job. What I saw was Santino fall down three different times when Sheamus went for the Brough Kick and then after the third miss of the kick, Santino just pinned Sheamus clean...after a slow count.

Who the fuck did Sheamus piss off?

Did anyone hear what Stryker said to Jerry Lawler? Lawler made a comment about Stryker never winning titles and Stryker retaliated that he never booked himself in his own promotion. Isn't that the type of stuff that probably...shouldn't be said on live TV?

About a week or so ago, Dixie on Twitter mentioned something about praying for Hogan because he was in the hospital getting surgery or something. I replied saying he doesn't need any help because he's immortal. Now the group in TNA is called Immortal and Abyss is cutting promos about how Hulkamania will never die and Hogan is Immortal. I'm sure it's completely coincidental, but it makes me feel special, damnit!

Damn, I thought we had something in common for a second!

Pathetic? More like amazing! Nash & Waltman, drunk & baked off their asses just burying the fuck out of people and burning bridges? Yes, please!

TNA is not generally looked at in a positive light by the majority of wrestling fans nowadays, if ever. I was curious if anyone was planning on ordering/watching Bound for Glory tonight though?

It's a crazy world we live in now as wrestling fans. When I was growing up, the last thing on my mind was Hulk Hogan or The Ultimate Warrior turning into bad guys or Rick Rude or Honky Tonk Man turning into good guys. Nowadays, it's just expected it seems. I don't see a problem with Cena just staying a babyface. Although the talks of him turning heel have been going on ever since he was stabbed by Carlito's Jesus on Smackdown!

I liked Sid too! My channel-changers were people like Glacier, Prince Iukea, Norman Smiley, Kidman...a lot of the Thunder regulars. My biggest HAD to have been Alex Wright. I HATED that mother-fucker.

Meng was actually one of my favorite wrestlers in WCW. Not just his Faces of Fear run either. I admit his Hardcore era was silly, moreso because of Normal Smiley than Meng, but it sort of turned Meng into a comedy character which went against how he was built-up for so long. I remember Meng even had Goldberg beat one time but let go of the Tongan Death Grip because the nWo was at ringside or something. I don't remember exactly as it was a long time ago. Meng owned though. I'll never forget there was a Lumberjack Strap match and Meng came out with a strap and was swinging it at camera men and shit. Bobby Heenan went off on commentary: "He can't even get to the ring without hitting people! Who would give this man a strap?" Haku/Meng has always been a big guilty pleasure of mine though.

Kaitlyn a "man chick?" I think the woman is gorgeous myself...

It probably should be its own thread, but WWE Night of Champions was really good, in my opinion. I liked Dolph Ziggler/Kofi Kingston a lot. I'm digging Kaitlyn & Vickie Guerrero a lot. Although the ending was sort of abrupt, The Big Show/C.M. Punk was also entertaining. The Women's/Divas match was nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be. The main event was fun, with what I think was the right guy going over (you can't deny how popular Orton is). Plus, Kane/Undertaker did a lot to advance that storyline (although I wasn't terribly high on the match) and Daniel Bryan/The Miz was a great match with an unexpected ending. I will probably pick up the official Night of Champions DVD. It was a good show. I liked the outcome to every single match, which is rare for me.

Now it's skull. No one is hit in the head, they're hit in the skull. Randy Orton punts people in the skull.

Congrats to Kaval for winning NXT season two. Now he better invest in some sunglasses because he's going to be looking at a lot of lights.

That is my line of thinking as well. Granted I know nothing about the ratings in WWE, but I am pretty sure that the Diva segments are not the highest rated of the show, like they seem to be in TNA when The Beautiful People are around. Actually, from everything I have heard, the women matches in WWE tend to be looked down upon and referred to in a derogatory way as "piss break" matches. I guess when Melina is your champion that is not too far-fetched. It's too bad because there are definitely a lot of more than capable female workers. Maybe not the Kelly Kelly and Bella Twins of the world but WWE have had women that could go in the past. They are now seemingly bringing in this amazonian neanderthal simply because she's big, but she completely skipped FCW and you know she is going to be green as all hell and most likely terrible. Yet they have never tried to get Awesome/Amazing Kong? I expect the poor girl to become Santino comedy fodder and future endeavored shortly there after. That is if she even does anything outside of season 3 of NXT. WWE is pretty big on height. The Great Khali is still around and he can hardly even walk down the ramp. Huge draw in India or not. How serious is anyone going to take the show when the "pros" are a bunch of girls that seem to get ridiculed for not being able to wrestle?

Kelly Kelly: Pro I like NXT but there is no way I am going to watch an All Diva season. C'mon.

To me, it's more so that she was seemingly fired for kayfabe reasons in 2010 after she shaved her head bald for the company.
