I mean, Shelton Benjamin gets the tag team champs, and Punk gets retards.

WTF.

And why the **** isn't it Delaney and Dreamer with Punk? I guess they need to sell JBL's beatdown (itself pointless, although that's Delaney's job).

Eh, Jesse's a pretty solid worker and Festus is super over, so I don't have a--BISCUITS AND GRAVYYYYYYY

I really hate rednecks...

I know, that sounds funny on a rasslin thread, but what can I say.

[Ultra Peanut]

Just pretend Jesse is Owen Hart. It's not too hard, and it makes you like him a lot more.

[Ultra Peanut]

Wow. ECW was really, really, really borizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I confess I've watched rassling for years. So I feel stupid asking you this question. But what does it mean for a wrestler being over?

Put simply, being over means that the crowd gives a good reaction to you. If you're over as a face, the crowd pops (cheers loudly) when your music hits, and so on. If you're over as a heel, the crowd rains down the boos when you show up, and so forth.

So basically it's whom ever they save the good story lines for.

Well, not always. Take Chris Jericho, for instance. He was basically left to his own devices in WCW, and due to his cleverness, charisma, and innate ability to draw incredible heat, he got super-over even as management paid little to no attention to him. The Motor City Machine Guns in TNA are a similar case of midcarders who managed to win the crowd over on their own, without needing much support from the bookers.

On the flip side is someone like X-Pac, after whom "X-Pac heat" was named. People just did not give a shit about him no matter what he was doing. Lots of guys who get nice opportunities still fail to get over due to their own shortcomings or just bad luck.

What ever happened to him? Didn't he start out as the 1 2 3 Kid?

[keg in kc]

ECW was gawdawful tonight. I hope that battle royal doesn't kill wrestlemania. I can't believe they're giving one of those guys TWO wrestlemania appearances.

And no CM Punk. What's up with that?

He became a hardcore drug addict, gained a lot of weight, started dating Chyna, made a drunken, cracked out appearance on "The Surreal Life", then made a pr0n with Chyna where he pulled out and cummed on her ass, IIRC.

Jesse is Terry Gordy's son, so he's alright by me

Punk's been on RAW the last 2 weeks so maybe he's moving up. Noticed Carlito was on ECW last night so perhaps they made a roster change.

I'm a huge fan of the MCMG. In three weeks I'll be front row for the MCMG vs The Briscoes, part 2 when ROH comes back to Chicago. I saw the original match and if the rematch is just 50% as good as the first, it will still be great. It's really fun watching Shelley and Sabin just cut loose in the ring for 30 minutes. You can really tell they're having fun in there. In TNA, not so much.
