(JG Note:  ZAH had a matter he had to deal with and doesn't have a new Shakin' My Head for you today.  Fear not, though.  In the ZAHriffic One's absence, I have put toghether a brand new "JG's Insanity Notebook."  It's an old gimmick from years gone by.  So without further ado...)


- Although I know it's not nice to say, when Ric Flair said he was "Naitchin'" on Raw, I misheard him. Seriously. For a split second, I thought he was saying he was "ancient." I know. It's terrible. Sorry, Ric.

- Also, a, I the only one who partially expected Steve McMichael to be at Ric's ceremony? I mean they can fly Greg "The Friggin' Hammer" Valentine out there but not Mongo?

- Considering how the fans go ga-ga for anyone named Hardy, you have to think that WWF 80s jobber Barry Hardy is kicking himself in the ass for not staying active.

- I deserve an ECW Title match before Chavo Guerrero does. That was like Kane Kong Bundy and S.D. Chavito.

- How ironic is it that Robbie McAllister gets more TV time from TNA than WWE?

- Am I the only one surprised that Randy Orton is still carrying around the hubcap belt? For a heel that gets what he wants, you'd think he'd march into William Regal's office and be like, "What the hell is this thing?"

- Did Raven get plastic surgery or something? He looked nothing like himself at WrestleMania.  See for yourself - http://www.wwe.com/content/media/video/vms/wrestlemania/2008/march29-31/6782410

- Speaking of which, in the aftermath of WrestleMania, none of the non-wrestling fans in my life mentioned hearing about Floyd Mayeweather. Five of them, however, mentioned hearing how the show-closing fireworks injured people. (I'm not kidding.)

- The Rock was great at the Hall of Fame. With the below-the-surface tension brewing, I'd say that we're due for a Rocky-Cena showdown in the next few years.

- WWE should change Great Khali's theme song to one that he sings himself entitled, "I Can't Wrestle." That way the fan chants can play into his gimmick. Just a thought.

- I really liked Jesse and Festus at first, but they're becoming a one-joke skit. Even worse, Jesse has become the most expendable member of the roster ever since Stephanie McMahon's personal trainer "Muffy." When you consider that Festus can do his Pavlov gimmick with everyone on the planet (including Snoop Dogg), it makes you wonder what Little Bam Bam's future really looks like.

- How glad are you that the whole "Ho! Si!" debacle is finally over?

- When I first saw Mark Callaway come out as the Undertaker in 1990, I thought the character was pretty cool. I would have laughed in your face if you told me that today - 18 years later - he'd be going stronger than ever. It's really an amazing story.

- With the way the list is going, I'm wondering when we're going to see Legends Action Figures for Barry O, Mike McGuirk, and Jim "Who" Neidhart. I mean...Phil Lafon and King Mable have them.

- I can't even imagine how disgusting it must be for MVP to take off his wrestling outfit after a long sweaty match. It must be like removing a wet suit. Yuck.

- "I'm the Boogeyman....and I'm coming to...nevermind. I'm not coming anywhere. I'm just going to take a nap backstage for about a year."

- I'm pretty excited for when and if Ron Simmons returns to Raw. With JBL on the roster, that could lend itself to some interesting stuff. - "I hate Mexicans!" DAMN! "I hate democrats!" DAMN!

- Many people are thrilled with the fresh and original feud WWE is putting on between their female roster and Harvey Whippleman... Jeff Jarrett...Santino Marella.

- I said it before, but let me say it again for emphasis. Sean Mooney's interview was a big exclusive but next week's guest is going to really shock a lot of people.

That does it for me, guys.  Thanks for reading.  Check back tonight for Aaron Wood's Smackdown report and this weekend for Sean Mooney's Radio Free Insanity.  Be Well!
