Umaga is A Threat?

Umaga sucks.

Yeah.

But more than just a bad and horrible wrestler at this point, he is the focus of my question of the week. Y2J is coming out and he pics a great opponent for Orton, HBK, but Orton picks Umaga for Y2J to face. Sure he has never faced him before, but Umaga isn't even good at this point anymore. Umaga has been losing to all the faces since Wrestlemania, and he's no longer a legitimate threat to the faces.

Can we write Umaga off the show now? Or repackage him as a legit threat?

Y2J looked crsip last night, and Umaga did pull his own weight, but I was not liking the match up and felt Y2J should have been challenged. But that's alright, because we saw an Orton RKO!

Wrestlemania 24 To End Illiteracy

I'm a big fan of literacy, and I loved how Rey Mysterio jr. and the WWE partnered a few years back to help get kids to start reading more. You even were given a free poster from WWE and a book for signing up with their reading program online. I remember the poster was really bad, with Rey Mysterio jumping over a bunch of books as if they were a hurdle to jump over to get to the prize.

I also did receive a complimentary copy of their road trips book which featured Big Show and Rey Mysterio on the cover.

But i didn't know the promotion went so well, then I checked out the news piece below: (rss subscribers click here to see article) It is an article about wwe partnering up to promote literacy once again. That's pretty cool.

Edge Interview with Marvel Comics

Right before his major return to WWE Edge was interviewed for Marvel Comics, and he had a few things to say about Comic Books and other subjects. Topics ranging from Who he would like to wrestle in the Marvel Universe, His Favorite Comic Books growing up, and a variety of other things. Here's a an excerpt:

Marvel.com: How did you get to be a Marvel fan?

Edge: I've always loved comics, basically since I can remember. Comics along with [the band] KISS were really the first things that I discovered. For some reason I latched onto those things. I loved the artwork and, also as long as I can remember, I've been able to draw.......

You can check out the whole interview Here, thanks to Marvel Online. It's probably one of the better things they have done in recent news from the comic book giant.

Edge of course has returned and is involved in the worst story line in wrestling histories...ranking right up there with the Katie Vick Storyline.

DDP vs. Goldberg Halloween Havoc 98

In 1998, my favorite Goldberg match happened. It happened at Halloween Havoc 1998, and it was the main event. The way the match flowed, the near falls, the Diamond Cutter, I thought for sure it was the end of the streak. I had no idea if Goldberg's streak was to end that month, or not, because the match was so convincing.

DDP vs. Goldberg is by far one of the best Bill Goldberg matches ever. He didn't just plow through DDP in a few seconds, he actually worked and DDP's style meshed so well that this match is one of my favorites of all time.

Eddie Guerrero Spins In Grave

I don't know about you guys, but when I saw this recap last night, things finally clicked.

Eddie Guerrero is spinning in his grave! Seriously, this is bad. Who grenlighted this?

Why didn't Chavo Guerrero jump in and say NO! This is disgusting, but this is getting people talking, so maybe WWE knows what their doing...it's sick though, really sick.

Lita at least looked somewhat good, and she is a wild cat! Vickie? I don't know...I just don't know what to think, this is bad.
