They might as well have Betty White guest GM while they're at it.
At least White has a current cultural cache. It would be something of a coup for the WWE to get her. But Henderson only reminds me of JR's painfully outdated cultural references. Even the oddball WWE connection of her saying "I've got two words for you: suck it" in an Eddie Murphy movie happened 12 years ago (Holy Man, 1998).

So, since the WWE seems to be on full fledged auto piolet right now, I don't see this angle ending well for the NXT guys. It reminds me of when the ECW guys got together during the WCW Invasion. It was unexpected and it was awesome, but it was followed up with little solid logic and terrible angles and the whole thing was over with a wimper in no time at all.
I guess that's a better fate than these guys turning into the Spirit Squad.

I bet this is the third straight week you've said this. I'm gonna keep looking forward to the weekly 'this angle is doomed! next week!' posts I keep reading though. Three weeks and still no hope.
Count me in as those won over by Sheamus. I actually beleived that they were going to turn him face with his speech about not winning the title the "right way". I thought that was a good way for him to win over some fans. But then it turned out to be a rouse. Good for him - I bought it hook line and sinker. I now see him as a credible title holder and love his use of "fella". Not since "jabroni" have a I loved a word use to describe someone in a deragoatory way as "fella". Kudos Sheamus.

That was the cameraman in the ring with him. He put the camera down and yelled for "Stu" to get help and then there was a "Stu!" chant as they went off the air.

Wade Barrett's real name is Stu Bennett. The real GM = Wade Barrett's split personality subconsciousness a la Fight Club (spoilers!).

I haven't posted in a Raw thread since Raw 5/31, so I'll take that bet all day chump. Then again why should I be surprised that Psycho Penguin posted again without checking his facts?
