Again, a lot has transpired since Wrestlemania took place last Sunday. Of course, the inevitable fallout from the event, along with some exciting new threads being spun for future matches.
The IWC* has been buzzing about the return of the lost son, Brock Lesnar. After he buggered off in 2004 to try a pro "handegg" career and later MMA, many people wished he would come back (as well as many people wishing he'd stay the hell away).
Monday, he makes his triumphant return to proverbially kick John Cena in the ovaries. The pop was humongous (well, the kids know him from his MMA days, too) his return was a dud. I expected him to be rusty, but his F-5 to John Cena looked like the way Big Show did it. Botchy at best, in other words.
Apparently, he isn't slated to make much appearances throughout his deal, which is a shame. Anyone who remembers his run with Angle over the WWE title and the spilled milk incident knows what I mean. He isn't the most charismatic guy, but he can play off of guys who are very nicely. Maybe he even became a better talker now that he's been socked in the mouth a couple of times,
The second return was of Lord Tensai, and WWE went out of their way to acknowledge he is indeed A-Train (to my surprise). His match was unimpressive at best. I've seen his work while he was wrestling in Japan as Giant Bernard, and I know he's capable of so so much more. But I guess everyone has their role to play.
Speaking of roles to play .... and this is SPOILERISH, as it has only aired in Canada by now:
Daniel Bryan's 18 second match may have a positive twist. LOOK AT THIS GUY BEING ALL CHARISMATIC AND SHIT!:
I never credited DB with a lot of charisma, but this was bonerrific. MOAR!
Short entry is short. I was asked to talk about Brock and Albertensai so I did.
