I can't tell Sports Entertainment Stories Either!

I wasn't planning on updating this week, but something happen on RAW last night that made Mike Tenay's head explode right out of his tuxedo.

As we all know WWE is putting together ECW again. (Cmon air it at 2 am like the old days). They took a step in that direction with resignation of Joey Styles on RAW last night.

Faced with prospect of having to wear a cheerleader outfit and proclaim Kenny of the sprit squad as being the new world champ. Styles went crazy overboard and slapped Lawler straight in his kingly face (and this was after he called him a hack. Awesome). Lawler then called the dimunitive annoucer a little idot and pushed him to the mat, where Styles then walked out.

After the break, Lawler apologized cause Kings can be wrong sometimes. Styles came out and did one of those scripited shoots right out the Heyman notepad. Taking the entire WWE too the woodshed like it was Austin stomping his feet on the Rock. Highlights of Styles triade can be seen here.

Joey provided some valid comments. Valid isn't the word but oh yeah he's dead on seems to fit. Some points he made:
1. He couldn't call wrestling holds.
2. He had to tell stories....STORIES! YUCK!
3. He was bumped like Eugene from Wrestlemania then bumped from Backlash by the guy he replaced.
4. Was told he didn't sound like JR even though they fired JR.
5. Fans suck cause they watch this. Yes I suck.

So Joey is heading off for higher pastures. Which I think involves Staples gun shots to Bradshaw face. One can hope.

Highlight of the night: Slapping Lawler in the face crowd reaction: OHHHHHHH! ECW ECW ECW ECW ECW

You also forgot to mention the fantastic main event match between John Cena and Kenny from the spirit squad for the WWE title. The match itself was awful, but Triple H's performance as the guest Ref. was spectacular. It was like he was channeling the emotions of the fans. Yawning, looking bored, and checking his watch to see how much time he had left to sit through before he could get his check and leave. His lethargic one counts and half-hearted Pedigree of one of the spirit squad marked a new low for the WWE: A match so lame even he didn't want to be there.

This was, of course, ruined when Shawn Michaels came to replace him and tried to breathe new life into the main event with his "faith" in the company. Accompanied by his invisible and omnipresent tag team partner (or was he?), Michaels tried to get the fans to get hyped on applied thuganomics. Unfortunately, most of the fans were locked in a heated debate over whether they preferred Triple H's new or old theme music, and couldn't be bothered with the actual match.

Speaking of which, is HHH trying to get people to think he's Jesus Christ with his new theme song "King of Kings" by Motorhead? And if so, are they planning on crucifying him? How will HHH hold the sledgehammer with stigmata on his hands (or wrists if they get really accurate)? Will Foley make the crown of thorns out of barbed wire? Tune in next week to find out!

Yeah that about summed up the rest of the night. Well that an a Umanga!!!!! crush job.

With all the DX crotch chops is X-pac coming back to do some soon.?

HBK all the about the faith now. Will take more than faith to put over Cena, which has reach the point that the wwe keeps the title on him because nobody likes him.

HHH was always more Thor to me. Your right about him looking as interested as Eugene push.

Hey, don't forget the promo spot they did for "See No Evil", starring Kane. Its one of those moments when you blog and mine intersect at a strange point. Kane, the big red machine, decides that he wants to get in touch with his inner thespian and stars in a movie as a psycho killer.

All of this is highlighted by spots from the actors (including the big red thespian himself) about how scary and "deeply psychological" the movie is going to be.

Just like "DOOM" was.
