First time republished since 10/25/04...

Greetings Underlings,
We trust this newsletter finds you all in good health (and with big muscles). Before we begin, we here at Titan Tower want to thank everyone for putting on a spectacular Taboo Tuesday. As you may remember, this event gave the power to our fans. Considering we were asking for them to pay $35 for a show that ran opposite Game 7 of the ALCS, it was the least we could do. We would like to thank all of our talent for giving a great show (by "talent" we mean: Triple H, Ric Flair, and Shawn Michaels).
As we approach the Halloween Season, WWE Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis has released a list of costumes you are allowed to wear. Please do not deviate from this list. If your gimmick conflicts with you wearing a costume, submit a form to our office explaining why. Give specific details of your character. We will look over the list and promptly book you in a series of angles that will destroy the gimmick, thus freeing you up for Halloween fun.
In this edition of your WWE Employee newsletter, Vince McMahon will answer anonymous questions from his employees. Questions do not list the name of the employee asking. They have been written on loose-leaf paper and slid under Jim Ross's door.
Dear Mr. McMahon,
Why don't storylines follow logical conclusions? Things seem a bit confusing lately.
VKM Answers: I submitted this question to Dr. Steven Croger, a local forensic scientist of handwriting. He has determined that this question came from Mary Ellen Smithy, desk 12. You're fired.
How come there isn't more merchandise featuring Triple H? It seems to me that I'm the Game and I deserve it. I mean, he's so cool.
VKM Answers: If I had a dollar for every time someone asked me that question, I'd be rich. Come to think of it, I am rich! I'm a Ca-ba-trazillionaire! Rest assured, random employee, that there will be plenty of Triple H merchandise on the horizon. As we speak, plans are underway for a new Hunter Hearst Helmsley action figure. Due to our recent lawsuit with Jakks Pacific, we have contracted Xavier Roberts and look forward to the Triple H Cabbage Patch Doll. (see below)

Available Q1 2005 - All employees are required to buy six |
Why was Jamie Noble fired?
VKM Answers: Who the f*ck is Jamie Noble?
Mr. McMahon -
Will we be seeing your son on television again soon?
VKM Answers: Not sure what you mean. Triple H can be seen each Monday night on our exciting Raw brand.

* At Taboo Tuesday, Eric Bischoff had his head shaved, as per the stipulation in his match with Eugene. Mr. McMahon would like to ask everyone to point at Eric and laugh.
* Whoever forced Shannon Moore to dress like a gay heavy metal person last week on Smackdown is in deep trouble. As you know, WWE frowns on hazing. Shannon still refuses to name names, but rest assured we will find the culprit. We are also still looking for the person that forced Steven Richards to wear a dress last month.
* Chris Jericho was fined this week. We just figured you'd all want to know that.
* We would like to congratulate both Ric Flair and Jerry Lawler. A few weeks ago, Ric spoke of making "virgins bleed" on Raw. At Taboo Tuesday, Jerry wished he was back in elementary school so he could see girls in schoolgirl outfits. Since instituting our new policy that every old person on the roster must be creepy and perverted, both men have performed outstandingly. We only hope that these employees serve as an inspiration to the Undertaker, who has yet to fulfill his creepy old man obligation.
* After several complaints from rookie wrestlers and production assistants, there will no longer be hard salamis available in catering until John Layfield starts acting more professionally.
* Following Big Show's head shaving, World Wrestling Entertainment is happy to announce that we're closer to our goal of a 100% bald roster than anyone could have predicted.
* Pat Patterson has left World Wrestling Entertainment. Pat has been a valued member of our team. In the last few years he has become an invaluable resource for match finishes, character development, and tongue-in-cheek gay jokes. We here at WWE will miss Patterson and always speak fondly of him. Actually, we'll probably speak fondly of him for a year or so. Then if by that time he still hasn't returned, Triple H will verbally tear him apart on Byte This. Pat will then separate from watching the product at all, signing autographs at local small-town conventions, releasing shoot interviews, and tell-all books. Then, ten years after that, we'll convince Pat to publicly take back all the bad things he said and reappear for WWE as a huge legend. It's the way we do things around here. So, good luck, Pat. It's going to be a fun ride!

That's all for now. We here at World Wrestling Entertainment encourage everyone to have a safe and happy Halloween season. Also, next Friday is Hawaiin Shirt Day.
So, y’know, if you want to, go ahead and uh, wear a Hawaiian shirt. Until then, don't forget to work your hardest. Remember, your career path at World Wrestling Entertainment can go wherever you choose. Of course, by "you," we mean "the McMahons."
Love,
World Wrestling Entertainment

Some memo, huh? You thought your company newsletters were rough? Speaking of rough, last week's ratings were pretty rough in the face of Championship Baseball competition. The Red Sox raised a miracle and rallied back from Yankee oppression to face St. Louis in the World Series. It was inspiring to so many. Equally inspiring was Shawn Michaels, the Taboo Tuesday fans-choice to challenge for the World Title, valiantly fighting Triple H. What about Chris Benoit winning the tag team titles from La Resistance, even with his partner Edge leaving him? How's about Eric Bischoff's gray crew cut? Did the Taboo topping show of respect between the bloody virgin Randy Orton and the bloody legend Ric Flair help to mend some fences between the two? After being caught lip-syncing on Saturday Night Live, how screwed is Ashlee Simpson? At least her sister Jessica is pretty and can't sing. Ashlee isn't even that. In a nutshell, I have no idea what this useless pop puppet has to offer. Whatever. Blame your band, do a hoe-down, and mouth the words. Live from Des Moines…it's Monday night!
Actually, it's last Tuesday again. For some reason, we watch the entire match between Eugene and Eric Bischoff that caused Bisch to have his hair cut. It's a final f**k you to the people that paid for the pay-per-view. (JG Note: Haha! Now we're gonna show it free! Take that!) Watching Vince McMahon mock Eric's gray hair and telling him he's a fake son-of-a-bitch again was nuts. Showing this on Raw, was like the McMahons wanting to make sure that everyone saw it. I get it. You won the Monday Wars. I feel as though five years from now, we'll look at this tape and say, "Remember the Insane McMahon era?" Anyway, the whole match was replayed. Taboo Tuesday cost $35 and this match, shown in it's entirety on television the next week, was nine minutes. People that ordered the pay-per-view last week should call their cable company and demand back $2.10.
I'm ba-ack…and look like Billy Bob Thornton….

Eric Bischoff is here and he's got a black cap to cover his gray buzz cut. He seriously looks like Billy Bob Thornton. Easy E tells us that he's had enough of being embarrassed. He came to Raw to make an impact. Instead he gets undercut by people like Eugene. He's tired of being bald and he's tired of being insulted. He claims to be one of the most important names in the history of this industry. (JG Note: Which is true. He is one of wrestling most important names…no matter how much he kills off his legacy by being a WWE tool in the twilight of his career.) Enough is enough. Uncle Eric is done. Bisch tosses his hands in the air and gives himself the night off. Yup. No General Manager means that we're goign to let the inmates run the asylum. Oh, I get it. Vince McMahon isn't backstage tonight so Eric won't be the GM onstage. It's like art imitating life. Oh…that's deep. It's like how Lita's baby is symbolic of wrestling's popularity and Gene Snitsky is symbolic of bad creative decisions. You have to read between the lines sometimes. Deep thoughts...by World Wrestling Entertainment.
Later tonight….Shelton Benjamin meets Chris Jericho in a Taboo Tuesday rematch…free on Raw! Another reason to regret your pay-per-view purchase!
Commercial Break. Britney Spears does not appear in the Seed of Chucky movie. I'm glad they told me. Sometimes it's easy to mix her up with a demonic talking doll.
Hey, are you the head janitor?
Yes, Mr. Helmsley.
You think you can clean these floors better than me? Huh? You're fired! Give me that mop. No one can mop like the Game! You hear me?!
Fine, I'm leaving.
Nice. I'm the best thing in the floor cleaning business. Hey! Hey you! Aren't you the valet? Give me those keys! I'm the Game. No one parks cars like me…
Evolution is in the house and they all have suits on. The first one to speak is Triple H. Hunter pulls an Alexander Haig and declares himself in control following Eric Bischoff's flake-out. It's not just because he's the champ. (JG Note: It's because of that wedding.) It's because of the fact that numbers breed power. Trips is your God and tonight the Lord will grant Ric Flair a dying wish. Naitch, anything you want - you got it. Despite having carte blanche' to choose whatever he wants, Flair decides to get down on his knees and beg for a chance at Randy Orton. Seriously, Trips already told him that he had whatever he desired, yet he couldn't stop himself from dropping to the mat and begging. Sad. After the mandatory groveling, Flair is granted a match with Randy Orton. That, of course, cues Randy Orton.
Randy Orton has arrived and he's wearing a suit too! Ortles heard the deal backstage. Hunter is ordering him to face Ric Flair? Ex-cuuuuuse me? Randy doesn't take orders from anyone! With that, Hunter responds "You will tonight!" You know how Orton replies? He agrees to the match. Pretty pathetic. His rationale is that he's beaten Ric before and he'll do it again. It doesn't change the fact that he refused this match, was threatened by his enemy, and then changed his mind. Randy continues his overly-enunciated promo, talking deeper than his natural voice. Essentially, along with the boys and the fans, Mr. RKO won't listen to Evolution any longer. Tell you what, H-Man. The Legend Killer wants a World Title shot. Helmsley interrupts him and tells all watching that Randall's attitude is the exact attitude that's going to get "someone's ass kicked tonight." Trips agrees to a title match with the young Orton at Survivor Series…only if he can defeat the Nature Boy here tonight! Win and Randy can face H at the pay-per-view. Lose and you will never get a title shot! Trippy then makes us all cry by saying that he intends to be champion "for a very long time." You accept, Ort? No answer. Cat got your tongue? Finally, he snaps out of his daze and Randy responds "Oh, I was just thinking about how much I'm going to enjoy kicking your ass and taking your title." It writes out much cooler than it sounded. Orton said it like a snotty eight-year-old. Horrible delivery. That means that he accepts. Bob's kid says it's on! Stephanie's husband makes it official. David's dad lets out a whoo and D-Von's Deacon growls. Eugene-Bischoff, Jericho-Shelton, and now…Orton-Flair all free tonight. If you ordered Taboo Tuesday, I hope you learned an important lesson.
We recap Taboo Tuesday and Shelton Benjamin's Intercontinental Title win. Up next…the rematch!
Commercial Break. In the new commercial for the game
WWE Smackdown vs. Raw
, Stacy Kiebler and Torrie Wilson reenact the popular Miller Lite Catfight ads from 2002. Stacy defends her favorite part of the game by yelling "Online." Torrie counters with "Voice-over!" I'm in a similar predicament. I don't know whether this commercial is more "Cheesy" or "Unoriginal."
(1) Intercontinental Champion Shelton Benjamin pinned Chris Jericho with a body-scissors cradle The new thing is that Shelton has something special that the announcers can't put their fingers on. Lawler is perplexed at just "what it is about this kid." Maybe the thing that they can't put their finger on is the fact that Benjamin has absolutely no character development and he's the Intercontinental Champion. I'd say that's pretty darn unique. I know nothing about this guy. I knew more about him when he was part of the World's Greatest Tag Team. Anyway, he remains an enigma to those that commentate and delivered a pretty ho-hum showing with Chris Jericho. Both of these guys have talent, but should be paired with heels. Hopefully this one will serve as the obligatory rematch and things can go off in new directions. There were some bad spots here. At one point, Shelly got a two count on Chris, but Jericho didn't lift his shoulders off the mat before the three. Instead, the ref counted two and Jericho just flailed his arms after the second count. It seemed off. The crowd wasn't into much here and despite a few high spots, there wasn't too much of a reaction until the end. After multiple Small Package reversals, Benji hooked Y2J in a body scissors and cradled his head for the pin.. My favorite part of this contest was when J.R. said that Taboo Tuesday was amazing and that the "Athletes were on edge all evening." That's shocking. I always thought Edge was married.
After the bell, Chris and Shelton stood face to face and appeared to argue. However, the two ended up shaking hands to the lovely tune of Benjamin's generic rap music. Y2J+4 took off and Benji celebrated. However, while Shelton jumped for joy, Christian rushed out and took him down. After battering him with punches, Captain Charisma raised the IC strap above his head.
On a monitor backstage, Billy Bob Bischoff and the Coach are sipping some alcohol and watching the action. Eric seems to say something to his Coachly comrad, but it isn't audible. It's hard to tell if that was on purpose or accident, considering that they've been having audio issues all night. No big deal. I'll just make up whatever words I think he said. Hmmm…OK. Bischoff told Coachman that he loved him and wishes he knew him before the whole "Embarrass-Myself on WWE television phase of my life." They then cut to commercial. Makes sense. Go with it.
Commercial Break. That's interesting, Burger King. It's not often that a fast food restaurant incorporates a "cock fighting" theme into their ads. I guess it's better than the old "waking up with the Burger King in your bed" campaign.
Christy Hemme is backed into a door with Evolution surrounding her. Ric Flair is the mouthpiece for the group as he kicks it to Hemme. (JG Note: I think you're barking up the wrong tree, Naitch. Something tells me that she's not a virgin. ) She turns him down with a giggle, and Triple H leans in. He asks her if she likes her job. Uh oh…Lifetime World Premiere movie evil sexual harasser boss Hunter kicks in. Before threatening her directly, Hunt is shoved by an angry Chris Jericho walking by. From Christy to Chris…
Hey you! …………….. I put dots there because the audio went out. It went out for a while. The whole Hunter speech on Jericho was cut. It's the type of thing that, had it happened to someone besides Triple H, people would have said that Triple H did it. By the time the sound returns, Maven has arrived to stand by his Canadian Fozzy buddy. Trip turns to Maven and says…
"You want some of this too, Tiger Woods?"
- Triple H to Maven, 9:51pm
Alrighty then. However, things don't stop there. Chris Benoit shows up. Then comes Rhyno and Tajiri and Hurricane and Rosey and…wow! Evolution backs down! Now that these 500 people are here, Triple H and his crew are leaving. No mere mortal can do it on his own, but maybe all these guys can stop them! Finally an army big enough to stop DeEvolution X!
Video recap of Edge screwing over Shawn Michaels at Taboo Tuesday. Up next…an interview with both men. Don't touch that dial! Well, chances are that if you have cable, you don't have a dial on your television. Whatever turns the channel -don't touch it! Dial or not!
Commercial Break. Any more of these Day of Reckoning
commercials and I'm going to stab John Cena.
Jim Ross is center ring and tells us again that he loved Taboo Tuesday. It was just so amazing. Equally amazing is the magical power of satellite. It brings us things like moving images. To illustrate this amazing feat, we shoot to the Titantron, where Edge is standing by via…satellite. Ross asks how he can justify his Taboo conduct. Edgy spells it out for us all one more time. He beat Triple H two weeks prior to Double T in a tag match. The night before, he beat both Chris Benoit and Shawn Michaels. Why then did he lose the vote? After coming back from a broken neck, the Edgeman broke his hand. He still came back! How was he rewarded? Boos in his hometown and a Taboo Tuesday screw job! He lost the World Title match by 6%. That 6% changed his life. Had he won, he'd be Champion right now. With that, we bid the angry Canadian a fond farewell.
Back in the ring,Jim Ross introduces Shawn Michaels and a guy in the front row goes nuts. He starts banging the barricade and bugging his eyes out to his friend. This guy was really into Shawn Michaels. HBK hobbled out on his crutches and J.R. told him that he didn't deserve to be in the same ring with his Heartbreakness. With that, Michaels took the microphone and spoke about Edge's injuries. Since all of his boo-boos happened in such a short amount of time, the Edgeman isn't courageous. He's simply clumsy and fragile. Ha ha on you, Edge. It's taken guys twice that time to have injuries like yours. The Boy Toy may be broken down, but he still drags himself to work! (JG Note: Provided he has his smile) After mocking his opponent's inability to wrestle with a broken neck, Shawn relentlessly kisses up to the audience. He's all warm and fuzzy over Taboo Tuesday. Ever WWE superstar was filled with an excitement that HBK hasn't felt in the 2 ½ years since he's been back. Something has been missing. That something was filled at the Tuesday pay show when the fans voted! Big cheers! You people made the event special. Wrestlers do this for you. According to the Heartbreak Man, wrestlers do this for the roar of the crowd. He says that when the adrenaline courses through your body, it makes you do things "a sane man wouldn't do." (JG Note: Like wearing mirrored leather chaps.) Blah blah blah. Yada yada yada. Thanks for voting. Thanks for watching the pay-per-view. Basically, Shawn's injured. We needed to kill time. Why not have him butcher nine minutes with a prolonged "thank you." Boring stuff. It would have been mildly touching had it not been so transparent. Saying that everyone was gushing over fan-votes was over the top and even a casual fan sees it as a pandering statement. There were plenty of other ways he could have thanked the audience without seeming condescending.
Commercial Break. Casting directors for "I Hate My Job with Al Sharpton" have a tough task. They have to find people that both hate their job…and don't hate Al Sharpton.
Backstage, Maven i
s standing by with Todd Grisham. Tiger tells Grishy that he's going to make a statement tonight. If the inmates are running the asylum, as has been repeated cpnstantly, then he's throwing out the rule book. Before being able to complete his thought, Mave is interrupted by Dave Batista. Tista steps up to the microphone and proceeds to make a match for himself. This angers the Tough Enough alum, who steps into Batista's face and proposes a match for right now. Davey B laughs the idea off and tells Maven that he's not worth his time or energy. How does the youngster respond? He slaps Tista in the face. The gutsy jobber then rushes to the ring as Deacon Dave follows.
(2) Maven pinned Batista with a roll-up This was a good night for Maven. After being looked at as a jobber to the stars for so long, it's about time that Mave was given a solid victory over a larger name. I liked the lead-in they had for this, too. With the face-to-face interview starting things off, the match had a reason to take place. After everyone had assumed that Tista would be winning, the Mavenator shocked them all by rolling up the Evolutionary Enforcer and scoring the victory.
After the bell, an irate Batista stalked Maven up the ramp. He stopped short when Tiger's friends, Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho came to his aid. Jerry Lawler called them an anti-Evolution movement. Whatever works, except if they start calling themselves Dudes with Attitudes. That happens and I'm changing the channel.
Commercial Break. No matter what, Smackdown your vote! Don't know who's running? Who cares? Vote! Don't know what the word "election" means? Who cares? Vote! Don't bathe? Kill small animals? Talk to trees? Who cares? Vote! Just vote! Everybody vote!
(3) Gene Snitsky pinned William Regal after a Pumphandle Slam Quick, yet solid win for Gene in this one. He battered William on the outside before finally tossing him back into the action and scoring a pinfall with a Pumphandle slam. At one point, Jerry Lawler confuses Snits with Heidenreich when and says," This Snitsky never misses an opportunity to attack somebody from behind." Those rookies, with their sodomy and baby-killing. Oh ha ha.
After the bell, Snitsky gets the microphone and addresses the crowd. As Eugene comes to check on buddy, William Regal, Snits tells him that what happened to Willie isn't close to what happened to Kane. At Taboo Tuesday, Gene-o did the impossible and took out the Monster. The death of the Big Red Baby wasn't Snitsky's fault. However, the carnage from this point on will be. You have his word on that. With that threat, Genie growls and the commercials run.
Commercial Break. WWE now has the "Monster Job of the week." This week was the "Fulfill Your Fantasy Battle Royal." Kane's butt kicking should have been the "Monster Job of the Week," right?
Backstage the Unpregnant Lita is sitting along when the evil Dazed and Confused Senior girl, Trish Stratus steps in. Hell of a year, Leets. First you get back with Matt Hardy. What happens? You ruin his career. Then you seem to be into Kane
at Taboo Tuesday. You fall for him? Whatever. You ruined his career too. (JG Note: Someone introduce this woman to Triple H). Then to pour salt into the wounds, Trish tells Lita that she should focus on losing her Prego weight. After all, she's looking a bit chubby. That sends Mrs. Red Machine over the edge. She attacks Strats and the two begin to brawl. While the referees separate them, we go back to Smackdown.
Smackdown Recap: I'm 30! 30! 30! My driver's license says…1964. That's right! I'm 40! OK, that's not true either. Fine…I'm 90! How's that? You want truth?! I'm 90!
Evolution is chilling in the locker room. Ric Flair is wearing a robe with a huge black boa collar. He looked like Phyllis Diller. No joke. The hair, the robe, the face - all Phyllis. Triple H is flipping out and Dave Batista is huffing and puffing over his loss to Maven. It was good to see Tista reacting so seriously to his defeat. Lately they haven’t really followed up on wrestlers being upset following a match loss. As Trips laments over whether or not someone will interfere in Ric's match with Randy Orton, Phyllis stops him. Relax, Hunter. Whooo. Naitch is here to remind you that this is Evolution and nothing's gonna stop us now. If this world runs out of lovers, we'll still have each other. Nothing's gonna stop us, nothing's gonna stop us…now. Batista and Helmsley agree to have his back and Slick Ric walks off. Let 'em say we're crazy! What do they know? Put your arms around me baby, don't ever let go-oh-oh….
Commercial Break. IO Digital Cable is offering Playgirl TV. They advertise this on Spike TV - the First Network for Men. Apparently, it's the First Network for Men that like to look at naked men.
(4) Ric Flair pinned Randy Orton after interference from Triple H I guess we've chosen to ignore the entire ending of Taboo Tuesday. Wasn't the show closing segment something with Flair and Orton looking into each other's eyes longingly? We're just ignoring that, I guess. That being said, this match has not been pushed correctly from the start. Considering that Ort had focused on hurting legends, it's amazing that this feud with Flair has been so flat. The whole time that Randy and Ric stood side-by-side in Evolution, one had to wonder what would happen when they finally met. Now that they've met, it didn't seem exciting at all. This one had a lot of TV time and offered an average match. This wasn't the type of main event that's going to be remembered for sheer quality, but it won't be remembered for being bad either. All in all, it won't be remembered much at all. As the match came to a close, Batista rushed to ringside. Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, and Maven rushed out and tossed him a beating. With the ref distracted, Orton went through the ropes on the other side of the ring, off camera, to chase the Nature Boy. Triple H apparently ran through the crowd and smashed Randy with a chair. He fell back into the ring and Helmsley placed Flair on top of him. The ref counted three, the announcers cried, and Slick Ric won. Whooo! Bring on the virgins.
After the replay, H and Flair attempted to leave when they were stopped by Benoit, Jericho, and Orton on the ramp. They tried to rush through the crowd, but Eugene, Hurricane, and Rosey blocked their path. The other side of the audience? Tajiri, Rhyno, and Benjamin! Uh oh! It's nine people! Evolution's in trouble now! Three on three, they'll win. Even against four, five, six, or seven, they'll come out on top. But,nine? That's impossible! The babyfaces toss Hunter into the ring where the top three heroes stand. He begs and they all make faces at him and talk smack. The midlevel good guys pound on the apron while…
Chris Benoit gives Triple H a Rolling German Suplex.
Chris Jericho gives Triple H a Lionsault.
Randy Orton grabs Maven's head and leans his own head on it, as if he's about to kiss him.
Randy Orton then gives Triple H the RKO, which he executes very strangely.
The Dudes with Attitudes 2004 celebrate while one of the real life inmates lays prone on the canvas. Fade to black!
All in all… If you paid for Taboo Tuesday, you should be pissed. WWE replayed Eugene-Eric Bischoff and offered rematches of Benjamin-Jericho and Flair-Orton. A large chunk of the broadcast was filler and others exemplified a lot of what's wrong with Raw right now.
First there was Shelton Benjamin versus Chris Jericho. This match wasn't what you'd imagine. For the most part, it was dead. There were a few bright moments, but far from great. It could be due to the fact that Benjamin and Jericho are somewhat well-established baby faces. Having Christian show up as the new challenge to the gold was a good move. Hopefully they can develop more of a character for Benji as the weeks go by.
Shawn Michaels takes forever to tell me how tingly he got over the fans voting. Any fan watching this that thought Shawn genuinely felt amazing over the fans being given "the power" should just punch himself directly in the face. It just seemed so fake that it was almost insulting. Couple that with the fact that he mocked Edge for not fighting when injured and you have a really blah segment.
Triple H and Evolution need to feud with 342 guys? That's the worst thing about Raw right now. For example, it was two years ago when Hunter was feuding with Kane and Hurricane, two-on-one. Now, two years later, Hurricane needs to be with eight other guys before being Hunter-worthy. It's a sad statement on his career and illustrates how much time Evolution has gotten on air than anyone else. The entire brand has suffered for it. It's as if Evolution is the Simpson Family. The rest of the roster are the townspeople. They're quirky, but ultimately the show isn't about them.
No Vince backstage in real life and no Eric Bischoff backstage in fake-TV life. Either way, the inmates ran the asylum. It didn't run so great. A very jumbled Raw that didn't take full advantage of a storyline like the show without a General Manager. Instead it became a two hour Evolution commercial with a few matches sprinkled on top. Yeah. That's damn good.
See you here next Monday for some more Raw Insanity. Be well.
