Dan Crocker Missed Smackdown...But Reviews It Anyway

...

This has been one of the most insane weeks in wrestling history and I missed nearly all of it. I missed what was reported to be a fantastic two hour TNA special. I only caught bits and pieces of RAW. I didn't order Taboo Tuesday and to top it all off, I missed last night's Smackdown. That's my beat and I apologize for missing it. Why did I miss it, you ask. Well, the people in my house are crazier than this week in wrestling. Even though I missed Smackdown I can still give a review. Here's a breakdown: Tony Schivone welcomed us to what is definitely, without a doubt, going to be the best and most historic Smackdown ever. Mr. Kennedy said his name and I popped when he repeated it. We saw someone's pasty white flabby belly--let's say it was Piper. Booker T and Benoit went from friendship to fistacuffs. I was well into my sixth beer. Christy wiggled her tush. Eddie Guerrero really isn't turning heel. There was no peep show and that made me sad. On the other hand, we have a new segment--The Pork Patrol! Hosted by the one and only Super Porky and his sidekick Ed McHam. Ice Man King Parsons beat Batista in a non-title viagra on a pole match. Superfly Jimmy Snuka nearly won when he crawled up the ropes so slowly that no one noticed he was actually making a move for the viagra. There was a six man tag match. It don't matter who was in it; there's always a six man tag match. But, if I had to guess, I'd say it was the only three tag teams on Smackdown. You know the folks. Teddy Long announce another six man tag match for next week. Somewhere, Jerry Jarret is a very, very happy man. So, this week I watched the least amount of wrestling in one week than at any other time in the last ten years? Did the world end? Hell yes, I missed wrestling! But it did serve to remind me of one very important thing. I love wrestling. We all do or else we wouldn't spend time watching, reading and writing about it. I'm especially upset about missing TNA because it embodies all of the reason I love wrestling. Great athletes putting on top notch matches. If they have a weakness right now it's that they are a little, just a little, light in the storyline department. But that's understandable considering they only have, normally, an hour a week. Plus, I'd rather see no story lines than Vince McMahon pulling -anything- out of a plastic ass.

Oh well, since I missed Smackdown I should spent a bit of time here answering reader email:

"Dan, are you really as good looking as people say?"
Mick McGillis, Pittsburg, PA.

Well, Mike, I have the body of a Greek God. The one that was fat.


"If Super Porky was a ham would you eat him?"
Jim Parker, Wortham, Missouri.

Yes and I'd go back for seconds.

 

"Have any odd jobs around the house? Maybe I could rake the leaves for you? Take out the trash? Anything, really."
Jim Ross, Rossville, Oklahoma.

No Jim. I have no work for you...wait, on second thought I have been looking for someone to kick in the balls repeatedly.

 

"If you had a life time supply of beer but could only watch one episode of wrestling ever what would it be?" Tito Suarez, from parts unknown.

I really have no idea, Tito, but thanks for the lifetime supply of beer. On another note, I used to live in parts unknown myself. I shared an apartment there with The Missing Link.


Ok, that's it for email this week. Feel free to send in more of your questions, however. I know just about everything, so ask away. In the meantime, we have a lot to look forward to. TNA is on the cusp of being a major threat to WWE. We might even have another Monday Night War sooner than we could have possibly imagined. WWE might even start, *gasp*, putting on a better show. And yes, I'm going to mark out like a school girl when Christian debuts on TNA.
