I disagree. As much as he's improved over the last two years, he's really hit the throttle over the last month. He & Morrison have really stepped up by going tri-branded since Bourne's injury. Also, the poor guy's eaten three 619s (a 1857!) in the last eight days. Give the kid a win.
It's the Miz. He's much better, but he's gotten thru life just being the Miz. The man has had no shortage of breaks.

And let's give RAW credit for giving us a Rey win with a different move. He hit his finishers, but it was a rolling power bomb that got the pin. I appreciate the novelty.

Prowrestling.net said Regal was fighting a bad case of the stomach flu, which is why they got him out of the match so quickly.
I guess that makes sense, but the first step to making a title credible again should be to protect the champion. Would anyone really have cared if they replaced Regal in that match? And not that I think he should risk taking a shit in his pants mid match, but I would think Regal would be the kind of guy that would fight through it.

Originally posted by MUTigermask Well, hasn't that always been a given that Morrison would be the breakout star? Of course, Miz has benefitted from the pairing with Morrison and is a solid midcard/IC type wrestler.
My point should have been better said: They seem to be at least teasing the Morrison push now, which I suppose means the team's days are numbered.
I think this is sad, because John Morrison is a great tag team wrestler. There used to be nothing wrong with that. Heck, he's more over now than when he was ECW champ. Why can't we have a top of the card tag team wrestler? I fear that he gets lost in the shuffle as a singles wrestler. | used2bcool

Agreed. They should've just replaced him with Charles Regal. Or Santino. Or Goldust. Anything for that entrance music.
Poor Regal, though. He gets to be on PPV once in a blue moon, and he has the shits.

Makes me wonder if it's part of the Steph/Shane storyline. If not... they should run with it about how Steph is starting to "run the show into the ground" by botching the "surprise" return.
Nifty little move by Melina.. looked Canadian Destroyer-ish.

You're right... they didn't take ONE shot of Stephanie that wasn't "from the waist up only." What's up with *that?* Does she have body issues all of a suddden?
I just love the fact that she thinks that nobody will notice this little trick making everyone notice not only what going on from the waist down ,but also that it bothers the hell out of her.
She's only 4 months out from baby #2 in real life. (She's potentially still breastfeeding.) In plotline, she's the dedicated career woman who's about to get into another power struggle with her family, with the first major skirmish being her brother calling her a slut. The maternal figure isn't compatible with the plotline they're setting up for WM. And, as we all know, if her "mommy figure" doesn't happen on television, it didn't happen. | ekedolphin

Sorry for the run-on sentence. 
Is that the one with "You Can't C Me" on the back? If it is, I'm more amused that I read "You can't Copyright Me" from it than HL...R.

That is exactly what I thought. I mean, I knew what it was supposed to say, but I also knew what it looked like, and they weren't the same thing.
