Hey guys. Here's the latest notebook...
- The Iron Sheik invented Capri Pants and no one gives him credit for it.
- Am I the only one who wished Triple H would explain why he was beating up his father-in-law routinely around the time his baby was born but he's mad at Randy Orton for it?
I guess to quote George Carlin, "Bullsh*t!
That's our job!"
- I hope the Hardys go out and tear it up at Mania.
Matt and Jeff have been improving for years and they rarely get the recognition they deserve.
In terms of their characters and in-ring work, they're way beyond where they were the first time they feuded.
I'm pretty sure they'll give people something to talk about next Sunday.
- I think the U.S. should appoint all the members of the Money in the Bank match to handle the economy.
Personally, I'd be interested to hear Kane's stance on replacing the dollar as the world's currency with dead burnt stray dogs from his basement.
- You know what WrestleMania 25 is missing?
Bob Uecker.
- Nothing makes you feel old like watching an early edition of WWF Wrestling Challenge and hearing Johnny V, on commentary, say that the debuting Kamala is "like a male go-go dancer from Harlem."
- You know what would be hilarious?
If WWE inducts Lanny Poffo into the Hall of Fame before Randy Savage.
After Koko, anything is really possible.
It would certainly be the most poetic acceptance speech they've ever had.
Know who should induct him?
Yup.
Bob Uecker.
- Vince McMahon called TNA reprehensible because they do things that don't jive with WWE's family-friendly content.
After making this statement, Vince's immediately burst into flames.
- Pssst.
I heard John Cena's gonna leave wrestling for acting.
I heard that it's because that's what the Rock did.
Pass it on.
- It's times like these that I'm glad Vince Russo isn't booking WWE.
If he was, then the Big Show-Edge-John Cena angle over the love of Vicki Guerrero would end with all three men in some sort of gay marriage.
After that, they'd blow up something and have strippers hump Chavo's leg.
- Seeing Piper's Pit reminded me of how far wrestling has fallen in terms of fake-interview shows during the real show segments.
Think about it.
Jake Roberts had that whole Snake Mountain-looking "Snake Pit" set.
Adrian Adonis had flowers all over his cardboard walled set.
Even The Body Shop with Jesse had weights.
Nowadays, they just chuck chairs in the ring along with some knick knacks.
How much cooler would the Highlight Reel be with a full set?
You could put it in the same place you put the Piper's Pit set for that Raw segment a few weeks back.
It only makes sense.
Let's start a petition.
- Oh, and while we're at it, let's start one for Bob Uecker too.
- Ring of Honor on HDNet is a great thing and I really hope this works out for them.
The more people who get turned onto their product, the better.
If ever wrestling needed a third major option, it's now.
- I just want to pass along a note to Jerry Lawler.
I may have a lot of pride, but if you ever see someone beat the living crap out of me and ya feel like jumpin' in – don't hesitate.
Just…ya know.
Go right ahead.
Save me.
Please.
- That does it for me.
There won't be a Raw Insanity tonight, but after Raw, there will be a brand new uncut shoot interview.
You definitely want to check this out.
Plus, much more on the way this week.
Until then – Be Well and thanks for sharing my Insanity.
