Hey guys! It's time for another Random Thoughts. I wanted to get one
more in before my Wrestlemania Preview blog. Let's get going...
- John Cena, The Miz, and The Rock.: This has clearly been the hottest thing going in WWE right now, and WWE has done a really good job of not letting Miz get overshadowed by two juggernauts. WWE has worked it so that people actually have just a small bit of doubt Cena might lose at Wrestlemania 27. The whole bit where Miz changed the title was kind of weird for me, but it served its purpose in showing how arrogant Miz is. I'm really curious to see what happens on RAW when the Rock is actually going to be there live. By the way, a few weeks ago, I loved the "I Bring It Via Satellite" t-shirt Cena had made. I wanted to buy one.
- Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler.: This has to be the second hottest story line right now purely because of Michael Cole's antics. I loved when he started with the Cole Mine and his newest stroke of genius is his twitter account. If you are on Twitter and you don't follow Michael Cole, you should (don't forget to follow me too). Cole has been getting the better of Lawler lately and really getting a ton of heat. I've said it before but I'll say it again, I can't wait to see the pop when Cole finally gets what he has coming.
- Edge, Alberto Del Rio, Christian, and Brodus Clay.: This story line has been good, but I would say it's quietly good. There isn't a ton of excitement involved right now, but it is very solid. People seem to be enjoying and responding to Edge and Christian working together again. I think that if WWE wanted to really keep this going, it has potential to really explode after Wrestlemania by having Del Rio win the title. Brodus Clay continues to impress me. He carries himself well with the established stars.
- Undertaker and Triple H.: Personally, their promos are starting to get a little boring and over exposed at this point. How much can they really say to each other without coming face to face or doing anything but talking? However, I think the video packages have made up for this. They are really well put together and do a great job of giving off that big match feel.
- Snooki involved with Wrestlemania.: While I find the Jersey Shore extremely annoying, I think this is an excellent move by WWE. It creates a lot of buzz and gives WWE a ton of mainstream exposure. Plus, any chance to see Trish is always a good thing. Also, the addition of Snooki allows for the match involving Morrison and Ziggler to be higher profile.
- Sheamus.: Sheamus has finally gotten back on track and won the US Title. In addition to winning a title, he has had some great matches with Daniel Bryan. We should get the best yet out of these two at Wrestlemania. I think a lot of casual fans see the size and build of Sheamus and think he's just another brute power guy, but he has been so impressive in the ring and I think he will be a big player for years to come.
- Wade Barrett the new IC Champ.: I loved Wade Barratt's title win on Friday. This is the first of many titles to come. While I am excited about this and I think Wade will be a great champion, I can't help but feel like Kofi has been in the WWE's doghouse lately. He seems to be losing a lot and not prominently featured anymore. Also, with Wade as a champion now, Big Zeke is the only Corre member without a title. I guess his enforcer role in the Corre will just continue for the time being. With three of the four main titles on Smackdown, the Corre suddenly has a lot of influence on the show. I think all four are talented and should be around for a long time. My only question is what are they doing at Wrestlemania? WWE still has yet to announce a match involving any of them. I'm assuming we will get some kind of six man tag or something with Wade Barrett, Heath Slater, and Justin Gabriel vs Big Show, Kane, and Kofi Kingston.
There is plenty more going on but none of it has really changed all that much since my last blog, so I will leave it alone for now. I hope I'm attracting some fans with these blogs. Please feel free to leave comments and tell your friends about them. Also, don't forget to follow me on Twitter (@TheRealDomMucc).
