MTV is in the middle of a new reality adventure challenge among the stars of its various reality shows. They are usually pretty entertaining. Exotic locations. Death-defying stunts. And, of course, there are also the usual suspects: The jock, the jockette, the jerk, the bitch, the stand-up guy, the pretty girl, and the handsome guy for all the pretty girls to flirt with.
If you know me, you know that I love a good reality adventure show. Before The Miz hit the big time, he was a staple on those MTV shows, and I always hoped he'd make it to WWE.
Back then, The Miz seemed to fit into the stand-up guy category. But he sure does make a good jerk. And I mean that in the nicest way.

Poor Edge really had to scratch his head Monday night when it came to finding a way to keep his Rated R talk show G-rated. Why? Because someone remembered that Raw had been declared family friendly last year; The Cutting Edge, last seen three years ago, was not.
Ohhhh noooooooo! The possibility of a bad word or an adult subject on a wrestling show?
Actually, those things have come to be expected on wrestling shows. Television shows are held to certain standards for language and boobage. Remember the famous "wardrobe failure" incident?
Anyway, anything Edge could have said would have to be tamer than Maryse posing seductively with Eve after Mo-reece had knocked her out.

I felt bad for Wayne Brady Monday night. I really did. As hard as he tried to engage the audience, they seemed to be sitting on their hands. He joked about former Guest Host Bob Barker, then quipped about being "Bob Darker." Pretty funny, but the audience was not cutting him much slack.
Well, next week we can look forward to Flava Flav. "Yeeaahh boooyee!" As with most guest hosts, he's got a new series coming up, "Nine Tales: The Series." Hopefully, it won't involve excessive smooching between Mr. Flav and Brigitte Nielsen.

Thanks for reading and see ya next week.
