After another week of wrestling television, including Survivor Series, the crew comes back to talk about it. Joe, G, JT, and Jorge all settle in to talk about this wonderful world of Sports Entertainment once again. News topics include Kaitlyn being arrested, when Fandango will be seen, how desperate Lex Luger must be for money, who the most beautiful person in the history of WWE has been, and a pissed off CM Punk wondering why his appearances on AMC’s Talking Dead and the Chicago Turkey Day parade were not promoted better. All this, and much more! Tune in!
Wow, what a crazy week in pro wrestling! ThinkSoJoE, G, and JT run down RAW, IMPACT, and SmackDown for the week and predict Extreme Rules. Justin Ruff’s controversial interview with Texas women’s wrestler Ruthless Lala (which will be available tomorrow afternoon) is previewed. Then the crew discuss the insane week of news in this wacky world of sports entertainment, from Rey Mysterio getting sixty days for a wellness policy violation, to Buff Bagwell’s horrific car accident. Plus, all the craziness surrounding last night’s Extreme Reunion show, including Sabu being found “unresponsive” and Justin Credible being kicked out.

That’s right folks, we’re back! Justin Ruff joins ThinkSoJoE and G as they discuss the week in this wacky world of sports entertainment. The trio discuss what they feel could have been the best RAW in quite a while, the continuing rise and decline of the TNA product, whether or not SmackDown continued the momentum of RAW. A five minute highlight package of BWF’s interview with Johnny Gargano that will be available tomorrow at noon is played, then the hosts talk about the news and rumors that have popped up throughout the week.
And a reminder, kids, to not try this pro wrestling stuff at home.
Hey all! A few days ago, Drowgoddess lamented on the fact that three members of the BWF staff were in the process of moving, including Jamie Kennedy, JT, and myself. My move took all of a day as I moved from Niagara Falls, NY to Buffalo, NY. South Buffalo, NY. Yes, the same South Buffalo you just saw on the Weather Channel for the past two days as we got buried under 40″ of snow. Meanwhile, back in Niagara Falls, there is absolutely no snow on the ground. Yeah. I picked a good time to move.
My car got stuck Thursday morning, and I called AAA to come tow me out (and change the tire I popped). Twelve hours later, they called to tell me they were helpless to help since they couldn’t get down my street without worrying about getting stuck themselves. The city towed me the next day, and it took me three hours to figure out where they towed it to. I still can’t find a spot on my street…
Alas, this is a wrestling website, and I’m sure something must’ve happened in the world of Sports Entertainment this week. Ah yes, that’s right. MVP asked for, and was granted, a release from his WWE contract. Word is that MVP is trying to head out to Japan for work for the time being.
News is also coming out this week that Superstar Billy Graham has officially booked his last public appearance. Graham’s failing health has led to his announcement that the WrestleReunion event in Los Angeles, January 29-31, will be his last public appearance of any kind. Graham indicates that the end is near for his “run on this Earth,” and while he’s still with us, we’d like to take the opportunity to thank him for paving the way for the professional wrestlers of today.
Matt Hardy babbled on the internet about somethingorother. I couldn’t be bothered to pay any attention. I’m sick of Matt Hardy going online and complaining about anything to anybody who will listen. He’s an attention starved, out of shape, past his prime crybaby with too much time on his hands. Shut up, Matt.
Kaitlyn won WWE NXT Season 3. Nobody cared. The season 4 pros and rookies were announced. Again, nobody cared. Once the show isn’t on TV anymore, nobody cares. Bring on Tough Enough already.
WWE seems to have decided not to go with the whole “Juan Cena” angle. Which is probably a good thing. If you ask me, the whole thing was a work. WWE decided to screw with the IWC, even going as far as to have the character listed on house show cards and actually debut at one last Sunday night. Hell, until he attacked Slater and Gabriel after their tag match, we didn’t actually SEE John Cena – just his armbands. Kudos, WWE. You got one over on us.
Finally, we’re hearing that Shawn Michaels will be involved in some way with the WWE Tribute to the Troops this year, which takes place at Fort Hood, TX. Before you get all up in arms about him doing the same thing that Ric Flair did after the amazing retirement celebration WWE gave him, keep in mind that this is more of a promotional appearance than a return to the WWE. HBK has been a big name in the WWE for the past 20+ years, so why wouldn’t they promote him for an NBC broadcast?
Welcome to ThinkSoJoE’s Thoughts for what has been a relatively slow week in the world of Sports Entertainment. I guess the biggest thing to talk about is the fact that Sheamus is the number one contender for the WWE Championship. We knew the guy had potential – but who knew he’d be number one contender for John Cena’s WWE Championship just over a month after debuting on RAW? With the Royal Rumble being the next PPV up after TLC, it’s almost a given that Sheamus isn’t winning this time around, but it’s great to see some new blood in the WWE title picture.
So, being a slow news week and all, I couldn’t really come up with much to talk about this time around, so I decided to kill some time before writing this article by looking through our Google Analytics stats and checking out some of the search terms that people are using to find us. Of course, there’s always the usual “Raw Results” and whatnot, but there are a few surprising ones. Some of the search results that have led people here, and the pages they likely landed on, after the jump!
