Maryse was just released. I'm pissed.

 

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU--

 

It's rather odd, seeing she was close to a return after having hernia surgery. What's the deal? Any diva that the WWE has that is either decent or awesome in the ring is being released?

 

It's a shame but at least now she'll go back to doing playboy shoots.

 

wait, she was in Playboy?! I've seen some of her photoshoots on her website and they leave nothing to the imagination. But, um...damn.

I always loved Maryse, thought she was AWESOME before she got injured. She just has "it", and her charisma is off the charts. Not too shabby in the ring, either.

 

Thank you, Nick Diaz and BJ Penn for putting on the only fight worth a fuck all night.

 

So, the Muppets will be on RAW tonight. I know it's corny as hell but I think my inner child will love it.

 

Heh.


Anyway, Cain vs. Dos tonight on Fox. Plus a shitton of fights on Facebook, including Bendo-Guida. It's a good time to be an MMA fan.

 

Hendo-Shogun was nuts. I think both guys were clinically dead at various points during the fight.

The year's best card. Fact: Hendo-Shogun will go down as one of the greatest matches in mma history.

Concerning Silva-Le: I'm disappointed that Le lost last night. Hell, he was 'axe murdered' by Wanderlei. Hopefully this means Le will return with a vengeance, but I don't see that happening. He has his movie career to fall back on, and what seems like a comfortable life with his family. Taking into account his age ( 39 - 40 ), and the status and things he has achieved in life thus far, I seriously doubt that his mindset and focus is the same as it used to be. Adding to the fact that the division is riddled with the likes of Vitor Belfort, and Anderson Silva, it is highly unlikely Le will go far in the division. I predict that he will attain one victory in his UFC career, and then call it quits after two consecutive losses down the line.

By the way....

I met Brian Stann last night as well. Fucking awesome.

 

Yeah, Cung is in an awkward position. He's pretty small for a middleweight, so the idea of making him face a guy like Vitor Belfort kind of seems unfair (Akiyama's crushed brain stem can attest to that). But on the other hand, welterweight is filled with wrestlers, and I'm not sure if Cung can handle them or even make the weight cut, at his age. If I'm Joe Silva, I'd be matching him up with guys like Alan Belcher or Patrick Cote (remember him?) -- guys who aren't the cream of the crop but will help Cung put on an exciting fight.

It's cool that you got to meet Brian Stann. Sounds like a fan-friendly guy, from what I've read.

 

It's probably a promo for the return of The Undertaker.

 

So, Kane has returned with his Mask. Will this turn out to be very awesome or will WWE creative screw this one up as well?

I was always a big Kane fan back in the day but I can't help but worry just a little...

 

I thought it was pretty badass. I like how they mixed his new them with his classic theme aswell.
