Earlier today, Mike presented me with the idea of a Divas Money in the Bank Ladder Match. This would be a completely viable option if WWE is looking to ramp up the quality of the division, but I have one major concern. The odds of the participants fighting to retrieve a Money in the Bank PURSE are a little to high for my liking. What do you guys think? - Chris

It's always WWE that's screwing up. No fan ever considers the possibility that they're the problem. Why not try changing your outlook? Maybe the solution to how "bad" WWE is is to watch it without any expectations. Of course, you'll always have some, but I really make it a point to watch the show without thinking too much about what NEEDS to happen in order for things to make sense. WWE has had their fair share of stories that unfold beautifully, and where the continuity is unmatched, but they also have things that they flip flop on. To me, that's because they're not in the business of being detail-oriented, and they're not in the business of logic. They're in the business of making money.

Don't get me wrong, I have my personal favorites; guys and girls who I want to see get the attention, and even though I am super invested in pro-wrestling, I've managed to be invested while still letting everything bounce off of me. I don't get upset about things that I have no power over. It's a show, and there are no other television shows whose fans feel nearly as entitled as WWE fans do. It's such a backwards way of thinking. Yes, you support them, but that doesn't mean they owe you the exact product that you want. If it stops being fun, then stop supporting it. That's just how I look at it. - Chris

I'm sure this'll be entertaining for a bit, but talk about a bubble being burst. I honestly thought that the popularity of the Mizdow character would've created a wave of momentum, and a smooth transition, while Sandow established his own identity, but they just continued on with the impersonations. I suppose if he wasn't going to get a push as a singles star, then the best bet is to stay the course with the comic relief gig. Axel and Sandow are two very talented guys who would've otherwise just floated around the card aimlessly, and now they have an opportunity to build the tag division up a little more. I guess I'm just disappointed that they didn't see more in Sandow. The guy has put so much time into the WWE. It leads me to believe that he's more than happy filling this role. More power to him. - Chris

Daniel Bryan is making his return to Raw tonight. What is the medical condition of the Intercontinental Champion? Will he be able to continue his in-ring career? I avoid rumors and spoilers as much as I can, so I'm with anyone who's looking forward to being surprised by what his return will entail. I'm pulling for whatever is going to make him happy, and allow him to have a long, healthy life. - Chris

I can't help but laugh at these pleasantly surprised New Day converts. "Whoa, The New Day stepped up." "I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I like The New Day." "The New Day is actually growing on me." People, The New Day was always comprised of three charismatic, athletic, and overall talented guys; you just hopped on the bandwagon because they became heels. I totally get it; the gimmick DOES work a lot better with them as heels, but the fact that so many people were completely dismissing the talent of these three gentlemen, and are now singing (and CUH-LAPPING) their praises is a prime example of how fans can't seem to distinguish "I don't like that." from "That sucks." In the future, choosing your words more wisely will make the foot in your mouth taste a little less bitter. Just a tip. - Chris

Quick Thoughts on Episode 1 of ‘Unfiltered With Renee Young’

Have you guys gotten a chance to check out Renee Young’s new gig? What’d you think? Here’re my two cents on the Network’s latest offering. - Chris

There have been many face Kings of the Ring, so it isn't a heel tool.

That was a long time ago. I think nowadays, being a “King” is kind of a hokey concept. For some reason, a serious face competitor walking around calling themselves a King doesn’t really seem cool. There was a time where that probably would’ve come off as prestigious, but now I think it would look silly. I think it has to be a heel; this way they can be as comically absurd, or heinously power-hungry, as they need to be. Being a King is too egocentric for a face, to me. Maybe they’ll prove me wrong.

I think Neville is going to make it to the finals against Barrett, and Bad News is going to take it. King Barrett has a nice ring to it. Besides, the whole king thing, to me, feels like it should be a heel tool. Neville's doing fine on his own. Just my two cents. - Chris

Very cool heartfelt promo from Damien SANDOW. I really hope they give him the ball, because he deserves it.

Dana Brooke is catching a lot of flack for her debut match, and I feel like it's really uncalled for. She has all the tools to be a solid addition to the Divas division. I'm not sure how long she's been training, but if they just discovered her on the road to The Arnold Classic, then it can't be more than a few months. In that case, I don't quite understand the reasoning behind rushing her onto televised programming. If it's trial by fire, then she did alright for herself. She certainly has the look, charisma, and physical capability to pull it off. Her in-ring performance will become more polished with time. She's in good hands with both the trainers and talent down there, so if she's a good student, then there's no reason for her not to succeed. - Chris
