Thoughts From Atop The Lair 01/26/2011: Save us From Nexus..Please!!

I'm TMIB, The Man In Black, I sit high atop my lair watching the happenings in the WWE and TNA.
This week its all about Nexus..ugh..or that seems to be WWE's motto.  Many fans detest Nexus and their blackhole effect on the story lines on Raw.  So what do they do..hey let clone Nexus and call it Corre..so now basically Nexus sucks up the life on Smackdown as well.
Ok that's one way to look at it.  Another view on the Nexus situation is that WWE created the Nexus and made it unstopable.  They destroyed everyone in their path.  So now how do destroy something that strong....with a copy of its self...say hello to CORRE.
I do wish WWE would go back to the straight foward story lines..the show seem  to loose and lack direction.  They seem to have now flow from time to time.  Most superstars seem to be out of there comfort zone WWE you have get the train back on tracks.  We want quality.

Thoughts From Atop The Lair 01/18/2011: What’s up with the New Nexus/WWE and will The Royal Rumble feel a Sting?

I am TMIB, The Man In Black. I sit high atop my lair observing the wrestling word. In this BLOG I discuss the happenings in the WWE and TNA.

OK…what is up with the new Nexus….are they Nexus or S.E.S.?  Has the WWE decided to overhaul the Nexus or just trying to make C.M. Punk fit in with the Nexus or is it the other way around.  I see the two that Punk tried to have fight with the Kendo sticks are gone, and made their way to Smack Down to stand by Wade Barrett…hmmmmm. 

And what is with the having to get beat up to be in nexus…Hmmm I thought S and M would not be considered PG.  It seems the WWE doesn’t want to let Nexus go but really doesn’t have a clear idea what to do with them.  I mean the are all over the place.  We shall see in the up coming weeks before The Royal Rumble just what the New Nexus evolves into

Wade Barrett seems to be making himself felt on Smack Down…and with the additions of the 2 Nexus outcast it makes you think a new power may on the rise.  I mean Barrett walked into the Smack Down, picked the biggest kid on the playground, and took him down a notch in front of a huge crowd.  The Big Show was NOT pleased.  It will be fun to watch what occurs between Barrett’s group and The Big Show.

OK who do you think is going to show up at The Royal Rumble?  Well the obvious choices like HHH, who is long over due for a return have been circulated. Will it be some one we haven’t seen yet or my favorite Sting.  The Stinger is said to be having shoulder problems but the rumor factory is going steady.  Sting has had many meeting over the years with Vince McMahon but is the PG era of WWE what Sting is waiting on.  He has said the WWE was a little extreme for him and with Sting talking more about retirement on live TV via TNA…is it time for the lights to go to black and Seek and Destroy to boom, is it time for the man called Sting and the WWE to blow the roof off The Royal Rumble….only time will tell.

Thoughts From Atop The Lair: 01/07/2011

I am TMIB, The Man In Black, and I sit atop my lair watching happenings of the wrestling world and commenting on the WWE and TNA.

I took tome for the holidays but I wanted to do a grab bag post.  First on the list us the transformation of CM Punk.  He went from a throw back to ECW of old to a clean cutter.  Wow talk about a change.  He looks like he would be a face but still is the guy who pick on Mysterio's little girl.  His heal development is nearly as good as Randy Orton's.  I agree like many that a Cena Punk collision is a good idea...I like. Cena and Orton but do I want to see them fued....AGAIN..no.

Second on the list...Wade Barrett splitting from NEXUS.  First of all I believe the "firing" of Cena was not only stupid but so easily realized by the fans as...umm....stupid.  Fans know that Batista is gone, HHH is out SOMEWHERE, Edge is not being used in a way that makes sense, and among others things Cena whether you like him, love him or you hate him he is a major draw.  I believe Wade Barrett.being a single force was a must.  And it may have been a wise nice now that Cena has had an injury.  Barrett reminds me of a young William Regal...with out the actual barefist experience from the streets of Blackpool England.

Third on the list is FOR GOD'S SAKE PLEASE MAKE MICHAEL COLE GO AWAY.  He is as annoying as Vicky Guerrero.

Happy New year everyone.
