I showed the piece to my father and it was emotional for us. Coming from a family that has seen a lot of people struggle with addiction, and one ultimately lose their life to that addiction, it hits home. I really hope Scott can get it together.

So at Vengence just now Truth and Miz vs Punk and HHH...Nash came out and attacked HHH to give Truth/Miz the win and now hes attacking Triple H.

Also Nash is RIPPED, he looks better than hes looked in years. Wasn't even limping...

Moments later he is still attacking HHH, dragging him around. This has been a great PPV so far...well not worth the price but worth the stream.

This tag match was great and so was the match for the tag title, Air Boom vs. Swagger/Ziggler was great, the Sheamus vs Christian match was great and so was the Ryder vs. Ziggler US Title match. Solid.

It looks like they are selling a collarbone/neck injury for HHH.

Looking more and more like Miz/Truth/Nash/Del Rio are all aligned with Johnny L. Assuming there is a title match at Survivor Series (we'll say Del Rio vs Punk), that leaves Miz/Truth/Nash and two open spots to go against the super group of Cena/Rock/Trips and two open spots. Should be good.

So HHH gets sent to the hospital by Nash to open the show, it looks like Punk will fight del Rio for the Title at Survivor Series and as expected we have Cena and the Rock vs Awesome Truth at the PPV.

So weird...

Its just so bad.

All of that buildup and all you end up with is a Nash/HHH feud and John L taking over..which is more annoying than good.

It is absurd. Its drug on for so long and it has gone nowhere. The worst part is they can still mess this up several different ways. So bizarre.

And on top of all of that, the reason you get rid of HHH is because of the "unsafe environment" and yet all the run ins, attacks, etc...are all still happening.

Now, that's fine but your bogus storyline to get HHH out of there looks even worse.

What purpose did having the ring break on Mark Henry and Big Show serve? We get it, they're two massive beasts, but what point does that serve? Even if the point is for them to do it again at Survivor Series, they couldn't have just had the match end normally to build it up for the next ppv?

I guess it was an OMG factor, but I mean most people remember Lesnar and Show doing it before. It really made the Del Rio/Cena last man standing better though. It was a great fight and it started in a ring with no ropes and turnbuckles fallen over. Pretty cool.

**Crazysilver03** · 10-25-2011 01:12 PM

After the CM Punk and HHH COO storylines, the WWE has unsurprisingly dropped the ball again. The worst part of all of this is that CM Punk is simply bouncing around from feud to feud with no real conclusion to any of them. To lose to Miz/Truth, but suddenly drop it to move back to the WHC? The fact that Miz/Truth moved from HHH/Punk to Cena in one show?

The whole Kevin Nash storyline could have been done so much better, but they took it the worst possible way. Plus, Johnny Ace needs to go.

It drove me nuts watching RAW last night and when Lawler was saying that that had never happened before.

They booked themselves into a match that no one could lose. Mark Henry is the new dominating champion, and Show just came back as the fired up Avenger. Neither guy could lose, and instead of doing a lame DQ or double count out or whatever, they did the ring break spot that hadn't been done in a while. Makes sense to me, and like you said, it added a unique flavor to the Cena vs Del Rio match.

I'd like to recommend to any of you looking for an EXCELLENT dvd/Blu Ray purchase, to get the new Shawn Michaels vs. Bret Hart dvd. I would actually suggest getting the Blu Ray if you have a player, it comes with some extra footage on the 3rd disc.

The first disc is a 2 hour long interview, conducted by Jim Ross, with Bret and Shawn sitting together, where they very candidly walk you through their careers, leading up to and through all the many problems they had, with obviously a huge focus on the Montreal Screwjob. Both guys are very emotional at times. Discs 2 and 3 have matches featuring the two against one another from various points of their careers, as well as each man's HOF induction. I haven't gotten to the matches yet, but in all honesty, the interview was worth the price of the purchase.

Here's a link if anyone's interested: http://www.amazon.com/WWE-Greatest-R...9682139&sr=1-2

I'd like to eventually see the interview, but in the meantime, is there anything in there we didn't already know?
