Just wanted to let you all know what happened at the Smackdown house show I attended last night.

Smackdown

There was a PPV last week, and Smackdown’s new champion is Rey Mysterio… Kane is still hunting for his brother’s attacker… and that’s more or less what will be addressed tonight. Hmm… let’s see if it was worth watching sinec it’s SUFFERING time! CAPSLOCK!!! (Note: This is being edited live, since I mistakenly hit the publish button while drunk and watching…)

How is everybody this week?  Well as the world turns and the days get longer and we get closer to our inevitable end, I realized something.  I have another article to write.  Well without further ado, here it is:

Just like the WWE, once a year the BWF network goes EXTREME!!!!!!!  Welcome everyone to the Extreme Rules Roundtable, I am your host JT and tonight is a Roundtable like no other, wait actually it is, oh well but it’s still cool though.  Joining me tonight is BWF’s very own lovely and talented Drogoddess, Gee from out friends at Project Wonderboy, and the author of The RYT Opinion Rytman. So without further ado, lets get this show on the road:

Well it’s early morning here in JTland and since I’m up and not drunk, I figured I’d give this to you a little early so I don’t have to do it later when I get up.  So lets take a look back at this past week and see what went down:

Well another week gone by, man does the time fly and with so much happening, I just don’t know where to start but I am so without further ado, lets get this party started, right:

Apparently there was something huge that happened at the SmackDown tapings this week.  I wonder what it was?  I guess we’ll find out as WWE presents Friday Night SmackDown!

Hey, everybody! I hope you enjoyed Wrestlemania 26, but now its time for the WWE’s D show (maybe F show…I’m not sure if AM RAW beats Superstars in ratings or not.  I haven’t checked on that.)

Match 1:  Kofi Kingston and MVP vs Zack Ryder and Carlito

Kofi and MVP get the win after Kofi hits Carlito with the Trouble in Paradise. 

Match 2:  William Regal vs Yoshi Tatsu

Yoshi gets the win with a kick to the head.

Match 3:  Hart Dynasty vs Caylon Croft and Trent Baretta (The Dudebusters)

Tyson Kidd forces Baretta to tap out with the Sharpshooter after hitting the Hart Attack.  Hopefully this will be the build for them to become Tag Champs

Alright, Peeps.  That’s it for this week.  It’s another random Superstars and thus another random results column.

Peace out

John Cena walked out of WrestleMania the WWE Champion, MizShow walked out as Unified Tag Team Champions, Jack Swagger walked out as Mr. Money In The Bank, and HBK walked out and headed for the unemployment line.  What’s going to happen tonight on RAW?  We’ll find out!

I write this, just  minutes after watching Shawn Michaels’ last match in a wrestling ring. With a defeat to the Undertaker at WrestleMania XXVI, Shawn Michaels’ career ended after 25 years.

Shawn Michaels was THE guy for me. Not Hulk Hogan. Not Ric Flair. Not even Steve Austin. But Shawn Michaels. He was that one guy growing up, that I knew would be my favourite, and that every time I heard ‘Sexy Boy’, I knew something fun and exciting was about to happen. Whether he was with Diesel, or D-Generation X. I was always entertained, and amazed, by HBK.

My…worship, of Shawn Michaels didnt just resort to the television. There were two video games in particular. WWF Steel Cage Challenge for the SEGA Master System, and WWF Royal Rumble for the Genesis. I don’t know how many times Shawn Michaels won the WWF Championship on these games, and it didn’t matter who else was on them, I was always the one character.

Everyone has that one person in the world that they idolize, that they worship. Whether it’s a family member, or a sportsman, or maybe someone in your favored profession? For me, besides family. There is only one idol. Shawn Michaels in my eyes, was someone who could do no wrong, even when he was the baddest. There was nothing he couldn’t do, in and out of the ring. He was brash, cocky, always so confident in his own ability, that he didnt even think of how good the other person was. In DX, he was cool. With Triple H, D-Generation X single-handedly fueled my love for the wrestling business. Partly for their attitude and behaviour towards everyone, but mostly, because Shawn Michaels was involved.

To this day, I still get giddy inside, whenever I see Shawn Michaels, or hear that ‘Sexy Boy’ theme. To watch his last match in 1998, before taking four years off. To that speech in 1997 about losing his smile. With all the returns and great moments that Shawn Michaels has had, nothing… nothing, has given me the same feeling that the end of WrestleMania XXVI gave me. I found it hard to move, hard to type, hard to do anything. It was like Pittsburgh fans watching Mario Lemieux’s last game, or Chicago Bulls fans watching Michael Jordan sink that final shot. You hoped it would never end, and when it did, you just didn’t know how to react. That’s how I felt about Shawn Michaels.

In my opinion, he will always be the greatest performer, and the greatest superstar in the history of wrestling. There will be no-one, who comes close to Shawn Michaels. There will be no-one, who comes close to winning me over, and making me a fan for life. The business may not be the same as it was, but I will always the great matches, and memories, that Shawn Michaels gave me. Thank You Shawn. You made this little wrestling fan who he is today.
