This week's AOW: John Morrison

Yet another great interview. It's a shame that WWE never gave him the push (I think) he deserved.

Eh, he could do some cool spots but for the most part, he was never better than a guy who could do well in multi-man matches. I do remember really liking his ladder match with Sheamus, but I don't really remember too much else of note.

I always liked morrison in the ring, his championship match with the miz on raw was fucking impressive. I think given more oppurtunity he could really push his way into main eventing as long as he tuned himself to the likes of hbk.

Forgot about that match, that was great too.

Kane being in the title match at no way out .....

I actually have no problem with him being in it. This is my thinking (if it proves to be wrong, I take it back): if they are really stretching the feud out til Summerslam (which we all hope, although I've been reading Big Show/Punk rumors, hopefully that isn't true), they need to stretch it out for three more ppvs. Might as well add someone to one of the matches to continue to stretch it out so that it doesn't get as stale (Christian vs. Orton went from Over the Limit to Summerslam last year, and by the end, it definitely was getting a little repetitive). Kane being in it allows them to do something with the finish that still isn't decisive, leading to more later on. Now, if they end the feud shortly after this one, or make Kane the focus, I take it back, but for now, I think that in the end when we look back on the entire feud, it will be fine.

Plus, the addition of Kane has actually made a lot of sense and has been pretty well done.

I didn't see Smackdown tonight, so I don't know if they pushed the Kane involvement more... But regardless, I don't have a problem with him being in it like I did at first. It does keeps things more open and less predictable. And I also really don't care to see Big Show vs Punk unless it's just a one-off thing and not a prolonged feud.

Smackdown was so much better than raw this week.

Yeah Smackdown fucking ruled tonight. Finally got to see Sandow and he had a few cool spots - Ryback doing his finish on two dudes at once - Show smashing things for no reason - Ziggler moving on and having a fucking killer match with Sheamus. Hopefully we get more shows like that.

The Ziggler/Sheamus match was great. I hope on some off chance that Del Rio doesn't win the belt that Ziggler is the next in line for a feud with Sheamus; I think they'd work great together after seeing them last night.

Also, meeting Punk today. Marking out hard. I'm an ass.

Chikara tonight

Where is Essa Rios?

Chikara show yesterday ruled form top to bottom. Probably their best show match for match that I've seen. Also, the first team for King of Trios was announced:

I watched it today, great stuff. Anniversario in Easton this year still ranks as the best show I've seen/been to, but Saturday night's show was still awesome. Delirious' interaction with the Batiri could spell big trouble. And the ECW team at KOT will be a privilege to watch!

I should have went to Chikara. I ended up bring at Comiccon so long.

Punk's Q&A panel was amazing. He's incredibly down to earth and extended it twice when he was told to wrap things up. I saw a lot of people filming it so I'm sure it will end up on YouTube if it hasn't already. Questions ranged everything from who his favorite guy to wrestle with (Rey Mysterio) to what his favorite cereal is (he doesn't eat it very much but if he has to its some kind of Kashi).

Also:
-He has been asking for a new belt to be made since he won it. Also, "I'll probably get in trouble for this but there finally is one. I don't know when they plan to reveal it but it exists. And honestly, I don't know if it's really any better than this one."

-Someone asked if he could have a super power which one it would be. A little kid in the front row said invisibility. His response after asking the boy if he liked girls yet (eww no) was that "well, I do. A lot." so there was no way he would use it for good.

-He rides with Kofi and while they have a bus now, they obviously didn't a couple of years ago. They had been pulled over more times than anyone else and "there is no way you are convincing a cop that a guy like me and a black guy with dreadlocks don't have weed in the car."

-He's excited about how much talent is down in FCW and OVW right now and couldn't pick just one that he'd like to wrestle. He thinks he'd have a great match with Sandow though.

-He said one of the things he's "working on" is getting Ziggler the push he deserves.

And finally,

"you try saying the alphabet backwards without messing up, asshole".

Punk rules, legit into young wrestlers making their name and I can't wait til his dvd drops
