Daniel Bryan Takeover


After last night's wretched WWE Raw featuring that awful Big Show segment and John Cena at his most annoying, is it too late to make a plea to just have Daniel Bryan take over the whole show?  How great was he in that segment from Smackdown on Friday?  I'd rather sit through two hours of him humiliating A.J. than seeing Big Show fake crying.

I love me some Tamron Hall of MSNBC.  Watch this clip where she totally owns some clown.

The Voice Finale


I caught the season finale of The Voice on NBC.  Some guy won, he cried, confetti rained down, the audience threw babies in the air, blah, blah, blah, but the big story was Xtina's decision to wear the above booty shorts on national television.  Probably not the most flattering choice-- not that I'm morally opposed to it however.  With Britney Spears allegedly signing a lucrative deal to judge the X Factor, Xtina has created a template of how NOT to behave as a judge on one of these shows.  Hopefully Britney won't display such behavior (although she should wear the shorts too).

The Client List

Last night I watched the series premiere of The Client List, the latest collaboration between Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jennifer Love Hewitt's Rack. Until last night, I was unaware that my cable provider even carried Lifetime. If you missed it, the show stars JLH as a single mother who starts doing "extras" at a massage parlor so that she doesn't lose her house. And we only made it about 30 minutes before her character had the word "WHORE" hilariously written across her car. It was a good first outing, but I'm not sure where the storylines can go from here. I may give it another chance next week. Regardless, hopefully we're one step closer to JLH just cashing in and doing late night Cinemax movies.

WrestleMania XXVIII



I thought WrestleMania 28 was a pretty solid event. Especially if you can overlook the Daniel Bryan squash and the borderline racist Brodus Clay skit. The highlights:


- Taker vs. Triple H: Great match and excellent storytelling. All three of the principals played their roles well. And despite the "End of An Era" tag, I don't think we've seen the last of any of these guys.


- The Rock vs. Cena: Good match. The right ending for that crowd. Told a nice story and everyone went home happy. The Rock did well to take eight years off and still be able to wrestle 30 minutes


- C.M. Punk vs. Chris Jericho: Another good match. I was surprised by the ending but the feud will continue.


- The food: I ate my weight in chocolate chip cookies, pizza and chips. Always a plus.

WrestleMania Predictions



Predictions for today's WrestleMania 28 event:


The Rock vs. John Cena-- the trash talking has ended and it's finally time to get this thing in the ring. I predict a Rock victory to avoid a riot in Miami. And if you are to believe online reports, maybe Batista or Brock Lesnar will get involved.


Undertaker vs. Triple H-- Taker's going 20-0. He better


C.M. Punk vs. Chris Jericho-- I'm looking at a Jericho victory and Punk regains it at Extreme Rules


Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan-- Sheamus comes out on top and gets a push to the top of the Smackdown card


Randy Orton vs. Kane-- Orton wins clean with the RKO


Team Teddy vs. Team Laurinatus-- Team Teddy wins and Johnny Ace goes back to screwing up his real life job


Big Show vs. Cody Rhodes-- Big Show wins to get his (kinda) WrestleMania moment


Maria and Kelly Kelly vs. Beth Phoenix and Eve-- Maria gets the pin to set up a highlight clip on Extra. Hopefully we don't have to hear her laugh.
