It's been quite awhile since I updated this. WWE product just hasn't captured my interest much lately.

* Chavo Classic dropping the Cruiserweight strap to Rey Mysterio last week came only a few short days before he got fired from the company, the excuse beong bad behavior.

If he was frustrated by the company's use of him as only comedy relief, I don't blame him.

* I didn't get to see Bad Blood, but I've so far heard that it was an enjoyable PPV. Hopefully it will be released on video in a while.

Kane wasn't crowned world champion, but he's definitely being made a true monster heel, as we've seen on RAW the last few weeks.

Trish Stratus
became the first 5-time Woman's champion since the Fabulous Moolah. I had a weird image of her next to Booker T; he starts to say he's a "5 time -" and she cuts him off to say "ditto".

* could the writers please ditch the 'pregnant Lita' storyline? The list of ways that it's crap-tacular would be way too long...

* Shawn Michaels is taking time off to be with his wife as his second child is born, thus the 'serious injury' angle he played with Kane. Of course, this can lead to a feud when he returns... this felt like a really old school way to start one.

* I won't see the Great American Bash this weekend either, but I can't say I feel really bad about that. With a Billy Gunn - Kenzo Suzuki match, another Eddie - JBL match (please don't let the fed be retarded enough to let Bradshaw win...), Torrie - Sable (next to Torrie - Dawn Marie a major snoozefest too), a silly Concrete Crypt match... they're really giving the GAB a WCW feel - from when WCW was really bad.
