Wrestling: Postmania IX: IT'S NOT SNITSKY'S FAULT!

Got to admit I love it that Kane's pyros still get the "Oh shit" look even from top faces.

I read a news bite about that, it seems like TNA just can't get a break, even when they plan something they forget to do something like lock in the people they are planning for... hrm no wait that is normal TNA "planning".

I did like seeing both Booker and Nash in the Rumble, just for surprise sake. I don't want to see Nash wrestle any other time honestly. I would be happy to have him as a commentator and was wanting him to do permanent color commentary in TNA for years now. I wouldn't be too upset with seeing Booker hang around in the ring for a bit, he can still go, and could help fill in for upper mid-card stuff as well as assist with getting some guys over in the process.

I'm quite excited and happy that Del Rio won last night and that Santino was the number the second to last guy as well. Really the only parts of the Rumble match itself I didn't like was Cena coming in and eliminating New Nexus all by himself, I would have been happier if he had taken one guy out, and been able to survive the other three, and then gotten help and slowly New Nexus was eliminated.

My favorite moments were Danielson getting some good eliminations, the few minutes of Danielson and Punk being in the ring alone (and later with Regal, as they are three of my all time faves), Morrison going Spidey, New Nexus domination, Chavo's 2 amigoing out until he finally hit the third on the fourth or fifth guy, and Del Rio taking it all home. It really was a very good and fun match, I still want to see the Edge/Ziggler match as I have heard good things about Dolph's performance. The Rumble has made me want to watch Raw tonight which is something I haven't been inclined to do in a long long time.

Glenn Jacobs probably has the second scariest pyro/theme/intro in WWE history, probably behind only Undertaker.

Which is kind of fitting.

There were good moments last night.....

Morrison's jump.
Bryan vs. Punk.
Ziggler looking ME against Edge.
Edge refrencing Christian again with the finisher.(On a side note, for a guy that has no future in the E, they sure like to bait that carrot on the stick for us Christian fans.)

ADR and Santino the last two was cool. Especially Santino.

But, SuperCena was a buzzsaw of suck. And now, he's gonna get Miz at Mania and didn't even really earn it. That sucks.

I agree that it's annoying.

Wow, good on those 2 - Husky and McGillicutty! I just watched it on Dailymotion and did not really keep count of those 2 (since they were part of the Nexus pack their whole time), so this was kind of a surprise.

I was rather surprised that the Nexus domination went on for so long. They tossed a few people at first, then......like, the next 5 or 6 people. Yet it only felt like it went on for *a bit*, rather than 10 minutes. That's commendable.

I know this will be blasphemy...but I think the reason Joe got no looks from the E is because maybe they believe they have their younger, homegrown version in Harris?

This is actually a good reason, as it shows faith in their homegrown talent unlike some company I know...

But seriously, Joe and Husky are pretty much like Laycool and The (original) Beautiful People in the comparison department: One side has more international/indy work than the other.

Okay, and Joe has more years (and quality matches) than Husky. But still.

time for some ROH.

first match: mike mondo vs. colt cobana.

But you heard Husky is 23 years old, but yeah I feel like Harris and Perfect are future main eventers in the main event of WWE programs which they will lead and be booked in the final matches because this is the genesis of the main event.
