Catching Up...

Ok it’s been a while since my last Godly blog update and a lot has happened in WWE since then. Lets take a look!!

Triple H winning world title

I figured it was going to happen sooner rather than later. The only thing that confused me was...why save the world title change for Backlash? Wouldn't it make sense for Triple H to win his 12th World Title at WrestleMania? Really no problem with Hunter winning the World Title, he’s arguably the biggest face in the company right now. I would love to see HBK with an extensive World Title reign though.

Randy Orton losing World Title

I figured it was going to happen sooner rather than later. Seriously, ever now and again Orton shows his true colors by doing something stupid and immature in his personal life. For those who missed it...

Randy Orton had another incident on the recent European tour. Orton was upset that the hotel staff woke him up earlier than he scheduled. Orton then put clothes on, took his food from room service, went down the hall and threw the food on the staff that woke him up. Orton reportedly laughed after the incident and went back to his room.

Orton has to realize, especially when he is champion, he is representing not only a wrestling company...but a corporate business in WWE. He is literally the face of the company when holding the gold, he can’t live his gimmick. Until he realizes that, I don’t see WWE making him their champion for a while.

William Regal winning KOTR

It was a nice surprise but I’ll only agree with it if Regal becomes active in ring again…which it looks like they are heading towards. The heel GM role on Raw has become stale…but having the GM also actively compete is something fresh and could be interesting if booked properly.

Mr. Kennedy turning face?

It’s only natural for Kennedy to turn face. I found it rather odd instead of pulling the trigger in a big money making storyline…they seem to be testing the waters against Regal. I guess it makes sense to try it out before you put a lot of time and money into it…but I believe the fans have been dying to cheer Kennedy for quite some time and would have embraced him in a main event role as a good guy.

Honestly WWE should have made him a face as soon as he came to Raw. Do you remember the draft when they announced he was coming to Raw and he came out to a huge ovation? That was a great shot at getting him over as a face. Now? We’ll see what they have up their sleeves to make it work.

Jericho-HBK storyline

Just a side note. I’m not sure if this is a coincidence or WWE is doing it purposely…but HBK rarely wrestles on Raw anymore. Think about how matches he’s had since WrestleMania…not many. And I for one am happy they are cutting back his schedule to prolong his career. Besides his charisma alone is enough to carry storylines on Raw without wrestling. Speaking of carrying storylines…

So far so good with Jericho vs. HBK. Chris Jericho has ALWAYS been a better heel than face…and he may not be there yet but it’s getting close. I for one am very excited about this storyline since their Mania match from a few years ago is one of my all time favorites. HBK vs. Batista was good…this is going to be even better. Can’t wait.

Mick Foley becoming commentator of Smackdown
Well it’s about damn time they have found something for that fat ass to do. Seriously, the guy is collecting a weekly paycheck…probably a decent sized one, at least have him do something to earn it. And that’s not knocking Mick Foley…if WWE wanted to pay me big bucks just to sit at home and eat cheese doodles sign me up.

Foley is a very gifted performer but at this point in his career he’s best suited using his vocal abilities. Besides this leaves open one last feud for him to retire with….you know the wrestler picking on Michael Cole, Mick Foley stands up for him, magic happens.
