WWE is finally doing things right, and it's shown in the ratings. We're FINALLY seeing new blood getting titles, and finally, somebody who needs the IC title has it. Hopefully they use Kofi Kingston right. WWE should look at the rating that CM Punk generated for the rest of the show and keep him the champ, because Cena and HHH were killing the ratings. Things are looking up for WWE, and it's about fucking time.

I've noticed this in the past few months. We've seen Kaz, Matt Morgan, James Storm, Robert Roode, and most importantly Samoa Joe all recieve big pushes, while Kurt Angle's started to take a back pedal, and the main purpose for Sting and Booker T is to help make new stars. It's about damn time. It's been said time and time again that TNA needs to create its own identity, and it looks like they're finally starting do so. While May wasn't that good of a month for TNA, it seems like TNA is starting to go in the right direction and stop all of this Russo BS. What they need to do now is improve the X Divison. Their Women's Division is the best in the country besies SHIMMER, bar none. And they're finally going in the righ direction with the man event. But with Vince Russo on the booking team, we better hope that he doesn't find a way to fuck shit up.

That was the worst Raw ending I've EVER seen. Vince Russo must be pissed that he didn't think of this first. Does Vince not realize that 17,000 people KNOW the finish and with a little thing called the internet, it will leak out? Ugh, and even worse was the logic. If William Regal is mad at being booed, why does he screw over THE TV AUDIENCE?! And it's not like the match will continue until next week. It's a live show, they can't end in the middle of a match and say, "Who will win? Stay tuned to see the conclusion of this match on the next exciting episode of Monday Night Raw!*cue Dragon Ball Z theme*" And it was a good Raw up until that ending. This reminds me of the stupid shit WCW did in its dying years.

There are always those years where wrestling reaches a high-point and every promotion is enjoyable. While 2000 was awesome for WWF, it was a dismal year for WCW, and ECW went through horrible woes with a stripped down roster. In my opinion, 1997 was the best year in Wrestling history. WWF, WCW, and ECW were all enjoyable. For WWF, the period from March to November was some of the best wrestling on TV. You had the Bret Hart vs. Shawn Michaels real life feud that translated well onscreen. Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin, USA VS. Canada, UT vs. HBK, the entire Canadian Stampede card, Mankind vs. HHH, the creation of DX, and so much more. WCW was good too. The NWO wasn't stale (yet), and the mid-card was awesome, with some of the best wrestlers in the world - Chrs Benoit, Chris Jericho, Rey Misterio, Psicosis, Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, etc. And ECW showed National Potential, with 3 Pay-Per-Views, and a cross-promotional feud with the second most popular promotion in the US at that time, WWF. It was incredible.

Okay, WWE has really fucked up whatever push they were giving CM Punk. They give him a title shot that's elligible for an entire year, and so far, rather than making him look strong for a potential title match, they've had him CLEANLY lose all of his major matches. He lost cleanly to Y2J the night after WrestleMania in 5 minutes, and they had the chance to really push Punk by giving him the King Of The Ring victory, but what do they do instead? They job him cleanly to William Regal, the fucking GM who WWE probably won't even push anyway, considering that they dedicated less than a fucking minute to his celebration. WWE has basically fumbled with CM Punk booking wise, and thus far, he has become wasted potetial. He's now RVD 2.0. But with less weed.
