Don't Call It A Comeback

Sling TV now has USA network, and well, that means that I have access to WWE RAW and SMACKDOWN, so I'm going to be reviewing everything and anything wrestling. My apologies for the delay, sometimes I get jaded, but here we go. Hang on while I start this up one more time and see where we go!

Ric Flair Retired in 1994

Ric Flair retired in 1994.

No one remembers?

Come on now...think back to Halloween Havoc 1994! The cage match of the century, Hulk Hogan vs. Ric Flair and if Flair lost, his career would be over.

The match had Sensational Sheri, Mr. T and others interfere to help save Flair's career, and to no avail, he lost to Hogan, and Flair didn't retire.

He had no farewell speech, he had not Monday Night interview, he left.

He didn't return till next year, when he was attacked in the crowd and set up a feud with the top guys in WCW at the time.

So why is he getting praised now?

Who cares about Ric Flair and his crummy retirement?

I don't.

Terry Funk retired, remember that? It was on film, and what happened? He came back to the WWE and wrestled full time some more afterwards.

We always see legends hang up the boots, only to get an itch and come back.

Had Curt Henning not died, he would have had a long term career with the WWE as he came back after Royal Rumble and was doing really well.

Ric Flair is good, but he's not gone. He'll return, and everyone will be wooing when he shows up for another match at Wrestlemania to teach the disrespectful a lesson.

Worst Raw Ever

Ric Flair has been retiring for a very long time.

So why is everyone, including Ric Flair so dang emotional about this time?

Remember in 1994 when Hogan wrestled Flair in a steel cage at Halloween Havoc? Flair was supposed to retire...he didn't.

Remember on Nitro, when Flair was going to leave?

He didn't.

So what is it with Flair retiring again?

I don't really care.

From what I hear, he's got a long term contract with WWE, so see him wrestle in limited form ala Mick Foley.



WWE sure likes to bury their talent after they come off a win.

Last night C.M. Punk took a great lead in the talent pool by winning a very lackluster money in the bank match. It was sad to see it go down so horribly...slow.

Then he comes to Raw only to lose to the Intercontinental Champion? Talk about losing credibility. Punk just got shot back down...even if he does have the briefcase.

Another way to ruin talent is to bury them in their first full match back.

Matt Hardy comes in fresh to lose to Randy Orton? What does this help?

It buries Matt Hardy, and crushes the pop he got at Wrestlemania.

Thanks wwe, you've ruined the whole post-wrestlemania night.

The rest of Raw was lame too. Khali and Big show? Santino? Cryme Time back?

This is exactly how to ruin momentum.

Edge and Real Wrestling

Edge Returned last night to pummel the Undertaker and prove that he's no second rate star, still upset over things that transpired prior to his departure, Edge came in and shocked the crowd.

Now tonight, there are rumors flying that Y2J will show up.

What will Edge have to say about his return? Will Edge be over shadowed by the returning Y2J? Will Chris Jericho really save us? We'll have to find out tonight.

OH and just when you thought all wrestling was fake, here's a bit of news from the real world of wrestling:

The Forgotten Return

The forgotten Champion is coming back. Seriously, with so much coverage on Chris Jericho, it seems that everyone forgot about the real problem solver, EDGE!

Edge is surely coming back and no one is talking about his shocking return.

What if Edge is going to save us? What if he's going to throw a wrench into the creative futures of the WWE!

I know I'm reaching for a lot, but consider the fact that Edge is featured on all the Survivor Series Propaganda, and yet the internet is buzzing about Y2J.

Maybe we should be hearing more about Edge!

Chris Jericho Slip Up

Jericho is supposedly coming back next monday night! Is this true?

All the internet is buzzing about how Y2J is coming next week, and there has been a slip up with the wwe magazine already promoting their next cover which features Jericho on it!

Will Jericho return next Monday?

There is only one other man capable of showing up to save us, and that's Edge! That's right, EDGE is also returning very soon, and there is a possibility that it could be him, and if that's the case, I am going to mark out huge and stay up late for it. I think for sure it's going to be a great thing to have to big names come back to "save us".

Maybe we're being swerved though. Is WWE capable of shocking us with a Return that we are not expecting? Could they have a secret wrestler coming through that is going to make us believers after all?

I have no clue.

Y2J's return has been talked about at length, so we'll just say that he is returning this Monday after Survivor Series.
