If it isn't Jericho now I will cry. I want my Y2J =(

In other news, I watched Cena/Ryder again. It was a pretty good match, as I thought at the time. Ryder always surprises me with how good he actually is. I mean he's not, like, Punk, but he's pretty good.

Between Cole and Laurinitis, RAW is basically unwatchable. What exactly is WWE's obsession with having annoying-as-**** universally hated non-wrestling personas onscreen constantly? They're like regular heels, except worse, and they never get what's coming to them.

Except Laurinaitis was good last night and I actually think Cole is greatly improving.

That line about Bryan when Henry was coming out for his match with Ryder was Heenan-esque, it was hilarious.

Cole wasn't as bad last night as he often is, and Laurainaitis has been pretty good for the most part. He's "annoying" but only in the sense that his character is a complete jackass tool, he makes a good villain and his antics are pretty fun to watch sometimes ("I'll prove I can be exciting, let's have...a photo shoot!")

Laurinitis has been getting worse, actually. He was tolerable in the very beginning, when he was a conniving backstabber (and actually a pretty effective one) due to his lust for power. Now that he HAS the power, he's just the heel version of Teddy Long. Johnny blatantly favors heels for seemingly no reason the same way that T-Lo blatantly favors faces for seemingly no reason.

Is it too much to ask that just once in the entire history of wrestling we get a reasonable authority figure who can see that depending on the circumstances of each particular case, both sides are capable of making a legitimate point!

Laurainaiaiaiaitis has been doing that kind of thing. He mainly just favours whoever is against someone he has a displayed reason on screen to dislike (Cena, Punk and HHH being the main ones), he's otherwise been generally involved in things like trying to keep Miz from assaulting people (not doing a good job, but no one ever does a good job of security in pro wrestling).

From: PWInsider
For some time today, it appeared that the fabled former ECW Arena had hosted its last pro wrestling event as the building's general manager Roger Artigiani contacted promoters who had equipment housed in the facility and told them they had 48 hours to remove their items from the property.

Several weeks ago The Philadelphia Daily News featured an article about issues between Artigiani, and another potential leaseholder, Joanna Pang, that wanted to expand and make the venue a concert hall while potentially eliminating pro wrestling events. As it turns out, a deal was made, with Artigiani agreeing to sell off his side of the business to Pang.

Initially, it appeared that was going to be it for wrestling events in the venue, but a scheduled January double header featuring CZW and EVOLVE will still go on as scheduled. CZW owner DJ Hyde will be meeting with Pang going forward regarding use of the venue, although wrestling schools operated by CHIKARA and CZW will be moving from the property. CZW still expects to run the venue as they have run more shows there than any other company, but the future of additional groups running the legendary venue is still up in the air.

The venue debuted as a wrestling arena for ECW when founder Tod Gordon ran there in 1993. It quickly became one of the more famous wrestling venues in the world.

We will have more information as it comes in

I guess the Zack Ryder thing just has me really pissed off. Not even because it's Zack Ryder, just because it makes no sense whatsoever.

Between the fact that midcard title shots are constantly handed out to people for no reason, the fact that extreme popularity usually is in and of itself legitimate justification, and the fact that pinning the champion (on multiple occasions, no less) has pretty much always been the best way to "earn" a title shot, it just makes no sense whatsoever how Johnny and Cole can say "he has to earn it!"

cena should have just thrown the match

he gave up his title shot after ten seconds of contemplation and than helped ryder win his second match

he should've just comically oversold all of ryder's offense and then taken a dive

And the thing with Cena makes even less sense. Being a "company man" why would he not want Cena in the main event at the PPV? And what has Cena done to him exactly, other then make a few cheap jokes at his expense (which he does to everyone)?

Also, it directly contradicts the anti-Cena argument as advanced by The Rock and CM Punk, mainly that Cena is being shoved down our throats by corporate interests (presumably like Laurinitis) who don't know anything about wrestling and just want to make money and appease children.

He did get Hunter fired after he knocked him down at Hell in a Cell!

Knocking Johnny Ace down is career suicide, apparently.

Zack sells moves pretty averagely, but the way he sells situations is hilarious. He has the best "...oh f***" faces in the company. Just look at the way he reacts to Henry coming out.
