Amused at all the folks bitching that Blast Hardcheese looks too rough around the edges. Honestly, do you want a wildebeest like him looking well-trained? Or do you want him wrecking dudes and looking completely out of control?

Parking lot totals. 54 beer-soaked Cheeseheads and 17 boxes of Tide detergent affixed with toilet paper.

The new Empowered Vol. 9 is pretty great too. A real CMOA for Emp. Also, EEL DUCE!

Grabbed Eltingville Club 2 the other day (somehow I completely flaked on the existence of Eltingville Club 1- off to wait on the omnibus next year). God, does Dorkin nail the dark side of fandom thing or what?

Something something sunglasses Martial Law YEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHH

You don't think he did? Of course, he lived next door to SuicideGirls at the time...

And your TV schedule for the week.

Apparently Meltzer is reporting that Rich Swann and Biff Busick are WWE-bound pending their medicals.

YOU DON'T COME INTO THE OB PLAYING THAT STUFF!

Arrieta pitched a no-hitter and got to fly home in his jammies. I heart Maddon.

Seems legit.

Orndorff worked NJ in the very early 80's. I used to have a tape with Orndorff & Ed Leslie (of all people) vs. Inoki & Fujinami on it. Yeah, he was a semi-regular with NJ before going full time with the WWF in 1984.
