BBB’s Notebook: WWE RAW XV Anniversary

I don't watch Raw all that much anymore but I've heard a lot about this here and there and am quite interested in it so here we go……

-I dug the old Raw openings, brought back memories.

-I see this Hornswoggle nonsense is continuing.

-Wow, Sunny tightened up a lot. Nice job.

-"Moolahs Funeral" Tasteless? Or a tribute?

-Muckah Singh!!! Best RAW ever!!!

-Well, the opening segment was interestong to say the least.

-Ladder match was decent, pretty weak spot to finish it.

-The Raw flashbacks were pretty cool.

-RVD?? Nice!!! Wow, that's a squash.

-Fuck, seems like a lot of commercials.

-They really fucked the Evolution segment.

-Molly's looking good as well.

-They dropped the ball on Hogans music.

-The Hogan segment was lame.

-That bedpan to the head still makes me giggle.

-The Fink!!! I love Finkel.

-The Goon? Oh Grizz must be in heaven.

-Gillberg!! Too funny.

-Dibiase…. The hits keep on coming.

-Battle Royal was a tad on the cheese side.

-The Kane and Lita cutscene was a riot.

-Crowd was dead for Kennedy and Jannety.

Well, it was a lot of fun to watch. Its amazing to think of 15 years of Raw and how much the business has changed in that time. Huge conpanies have come and gone, triumphs and tragedies but Raw has pretty much always been the benchmark for the wrestling business. I guess the countdown now begins to RAW XX.

Its Monday……

Life rolls on…. Friday night Chantal took me for dinner in Chinatown at Pagolac (I hope I spelled that right.) It was awesome. Best spring rolls I have ever had.

Saturday night we watched Benny and Mels baby Quinn. He is cute as fuck and he really seems to like me as he stops crying whenever I show up. Made me really look forward to our upcoming bundle of joy.

This weekend was nuts at work, the store is shredded but we moved a ton of product and I have some fantastic people working under me. Can't say enough good things about them.

Flames won last night, let's put a streak together boys.

We had a good time in Calgary last weekend but unfortunatly I got a call yesterday from my mom saying that Merv fell on his wrist and messed it up pretty badly. Get well soon Mervy!!

BBB’s Notebook: NWF Blood Wars

This is an old tape I picked up along the way somewhere, its dated 1992 but it drips 80's.

Its kinda documentry style and it focuses for the most part around DC Drake and his heel turn and feud with Jules Strongbow and others. Its so terrible its awesome.

There are clips of Abby and Brody intermixed, if the whole feature was about them it would have been killer.

BBB’s Notebook: Heartbreak and Triumph The Shawn Michaels Story

Fuck I love the WWE documentry style dvd's. They take their stories, which are already filled with emotion and drama and every emotion under the sun, and inject just that much more emotion to make the stuff of legend.

This case I'm sure it was almost too easy for WWE to do this I'm sure, as the story of Shawn Michaels is quite well known.

This dvd covers it all, mid-south, the AWA and the rollercoaster of WWE. Shawns drug use is frankly discussed, Montreal is gone through (again…..) And every other topic.

I thought they handled his discovery of religion very well, as its a touchy subject and it could have become quite preachy.

I haven't watched the extras yet and I probably won't because I don't have the time (although apparently there are several matches never available on dvd before)

Pick it up.
