Nope, 2:45. Well, at least Brodus isn't undefeated anymore.

Creationist Ape: Sandow is from Palo Alto? awesome!
He's actually from Worcester, MA. You know as well as I do that no man from the Bay Area would wear a royal blue robe, neon pink trunks and violet knee pads with white boots. Yeah, you're right. I don't know what I was thinking |

I think I'm starting to see what you mean about heelish faces. Kingston and Truth are basically the only "faces" who don't do dickish things. |

Stupid WWE can't even give me Damien Sandow winning a match without pissing me off.

Grantland really lifted the blinders. Thing is, back in the day, for a babyface to do anything heelish, like use a chair (Not threaten, but actually use it), it meant he had his back against the wall and he had no other choice. Jerry Lawler was actually the master at that stuff. If he resorted to something untoward in Memphis, sure enough he'd be on TV next week apologizing to Lance Russell and the audience for the depths he had to go to in order to beat Jimmy Hart's latest flunkie. Dusty Rhodes used to do run-ins and such against the Horsemen, but he did it to even the odds, and even then, the faces wouldn't attack the heels, they'd run them off.

No face is absolutely "pure". There is always going to be a bit of dickishness to any face - it's human nature. Even if you tried for an absolutely pure-as-the-driven-snow face, the crowd will be waiting for the inner dick to emerge.

I read the article. was interesting but crappy. we all know the "faces" especially in this PG era are like... even worse than before. in other news I'm sorry the Fred Durst shit cracks me the fuck up. Middle Finger on a FUCKING PAY PER FUCKING VIEW and they panic. it's not like it was RAW or Smackdown... you bought your ticket. I know, huh? Plus they had the bright idea to put a camera on FRED FUCKING DURST, of all people, during a PG show. |

Hell, someone had the bright idea that anyone under 20 even knows who the hell he is, especially enough to warrant putting him in the front row. |

Even if you tried for an absolutely pure-as-the-driven-snow face, the crowd will be waiting for the inner dick to emerge. yeah, but these days it's overwhelming how many WWE faces act more heelish than the heels do. Hell, Sandow wrestled a cleaner match than Broadus did, and Clay attacked him when the match was over. Heelish tactics, but he dances with kids so it's OK. TFA also had a great point about the Lesnar/Hunter match. For over a decade now, it's been "Scrappy Rebel vs. Evil Corporate Douche". All of a sudden, WWE wants us to cheer Heroic Corporate Not-Douche and boo the Evil Dickhead Rebel. Lesnar didn't want the match, Hunter did. Heyman didn't want to get involved, Hunter dragged him in. But we're supposed to feel bad because HHH lost? He picked a fight with a bigger, stronger, younger guy, and the inevitable happened. |

Stream I'm watching is putting on random promo videos and matches set to music during the commercials. It's actually pretty nice.

Were I a bit more conspiratorial, it's because they don't want to make the WWE corporation look bad, due to Linda running for the Senate. Or corporations in general.

but Seamus i think kinda goes way over it. and the irony of him being the BE A STAR spokesperson as he steals a car, makes fun of a guy for being mexican, and laughs at the thought of puking or shitting in the car is just so delicious.
In Sheamus' defense, chances are it was a bunch of my cousins kicking his ass as a kid. We MacLaughlins are a cruel, heartless bunch and have been since the second century. But, yeah... unfortunately the red headed punching bag must have Vince in his damn ear for shit like that.
