Really, no Raw thread yet, the following morning? I didn't think it sucked THAT bad. Here's some random thoughts:

-How many people are going to track down Brian and Brie from the house number on their family picture?

-Cole: ...."so their jobs can get their sons back!"

-When the HHH's came out, I realized a mess-up from last week. Since this whole "Authority" thing has come about, HHH has come out to the "Bow down to the King" theme, but last week, they played the "Time To Play The Game" music. Someone in back messed up there. I'm surprised HHH was able to make it the whole way to the ring without a scowl.

-Heyman: "Isn't he beautiful!?!?!?" That whole "proposal" was so awkwardly hilarious, just cuz of Ryback's confused look, but still smiling.

-How long until Christian does a Rhode's boys run-in to mess up the Shield? Can you say Sunday?

-When they showed Ryder waiting in the ring for Del Rio, were the Mexican flags already on the ring posts? I didn't notice.

-Getting to hear Living color more than once a Raw is nice.

-I really dug the Hulkster in the background.

-Ambrose: "Come ON, USO!!!!" in frustration. It's the little things that he does that make me want to propose to him.

-RVD in Japanese is spelled Rob Van Dam? Latin? Portugese?

-No Pink t-shirt for Kofi, but Santino has one?

-If you don't live it, don't give it.

-Cesaro's sit of disgust after the match was beautiful.

-Cole said the title was vacant. Why not "The title is abeyed?"

Ryback is a thousand times the character he used to be when he was a snorting, monosyllabic brute. Nothing filled me with more glee than Heyman's proposal and the way he worked in every buzzword and terminology that implies... what else could he be implying but that he wanted that Big Bad Beautiful Man Ryback to be a Paul Heyman Guy? And Ryback's look wasn't "confused", it was mutual emotion and adoration at a man who he admires and clearly feels the same.

Praising Stephanie is one of the surest ways to raise smark ire, but one of the highlights of the show for me was the way she smiled and bobbed her head to Dusty Rhodes' music while watching the Rhodes boys come down the aisle.

What does "I'll be your huckleberry" mean? I don't speak Son of a Plumber. Was that a threat? Is that something Heyman would promise Ryback?

The Bella Babyface conversion is 100% complete. Brie could have done with a little more emoting and horror at watching Daniel get murderized by Orton. You can be sure if it were Cena on the receiving end of that beating, Nikki would have turned on the waterworks.

But congrats to Brie and Daniel on the engagement and on becoming the number one contender to the Divas Championship, a slot so prestigious all of a sudden. Looking forward to Nattie Brie vs. AJ at Battleground. Chances of AJ getting Twin Magicked: 100%. The question is whether Tamina will actually be able to do something about it.

And congrats to "former Divas Champion" Trish Stratus and Ron on the birth of their son Maximus. I guess WWE has officially retconned the Women's Championship so that all former Women's Champions are Divas Champions. Will they PhotoShop all the old pics and doctor old videos to insert the purple butterfly?

Because 'abeyed' is not the verb for 'abeyance'. Abeyed is not a word.

I'll be your huckleberry is from Tombstone, the best Western of the 90s not named Unforgiven. Its a great line and maybe if you weren't obsessed with the Bellas, you could have time to watch that movie. HHH and Steph trying to be heels and faces from week to week is annoying, pick a side.

You still didn't tell me what "I'll be your huckleberry" means.

And I am more obsessed with AJ than I am with the Bellas, sir.

Stephanie and Triple H have a side. It's called "what's best for business".

Now you are sounding like my wife. I'm going to stick with "The title is Abeyed!"

As for Huckleberry: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Where_did_the_quotation_%27I_am_your_huckleberry%27_come_from

In the movie "Tombstone", Doc Holliday (played by Val Kilmer) spoke this phrase to Johnny Ringo on two occasions, (never to the Earps). Ringo was looking for a gunfight both times. In that usage, the meaning was from definition 2 of the Random House Dictionary of American Slang, meaning "I'm the man for the job".


Guess that means Dusty's her man.

Sir, you are holding your own ability to speak English properly in abeyance.

So it is something Heyman would promise Ryback.

First an foremost, how hot is ReneƩ Young?

Then, 3MB carried Los Matadores to a very good match, but it wasn't as great as the Slater vs. Santino match from SmackDown was.

Last but not least, I have to point out that I just don't like CM Punk as a face. I loved his feud with Jeff Hardy and his time as a Heyman guy, but as a face he totally bores me.

1. Quite, though the WWE wardrobe/makeup machine tries its best to hide that because you have to make everyone up like TV stars instead of just letting them be themselves.

I always liked her on The Score because she came across like she honestly liked wrestling. And now she's in WWE and all seems to be going well, so that's delightful.

2. You figure?

3. Agreed.

If by "chant" you mean "one guy next to the camera yelling," then yes.

MAXIMUS FISICO. He's already manlier than I am. I look forward to his 2036 debut in the WWE developmental system as "Fred Smith."

That's not giving them nearly enough credit. I'm staking my bet on something more like "Harris Jessup." That's a name hardly anyone could ever care about.

Who else saw El Torito and instantly thought of the "Satan's Cavemen" tag team in Nacho Libre? Just me? Ok then.

I like the idea of a luchadore tag team. That's what I was hoping for when I saw their vignettes. There's still time to make this work, just not with "El Torito", whose name will always remind me of the Mexican restaurant chain when I hear it.

Meant to add -- I wonder where they're going with JBL's random "these guys look familiar to me" thing. Are they going to "out" the Colon brothers at some point? Is this a temporary thing?

I thought it was just JBL being a big ol' douche like he is prone to do. I hate on-air burials by the announce team, like when they verbally shit on a crappy match or laugh when things go wrong. It either seems like unnecesary burying or force-fed lines from whoever is yelling in their headsets.
