JR's Blog:  Hurry...Our Sale Ends Friday Night...Q&A Mania...Random Thoughts

Posted: Aug 28th 2009 By: CMBurnham

Our sale ends Friday night at midnight central time so don't be "burning any daylight" when it comes to making a decision to place your order. The 6 Pak Powerslam and the Beef Jerky package have been running rampant. We have learned a great deal on this sale and will implement some positive changes when we do our next major promotion.

Lots of ground to cover so let's fire up the smoker and get busy....

I have put in some LONG hours over in the Q&A section of this site and updated every question that made the cut. Repeat questions or questions that resembled the Gettysburg Address did not make it. They passed of natural causes.

I also deleted every question concerned my contract status and my plans for the future. I'll give you this....interesting days lie ahead.

Some of the subjects that I addressed in our latest Q&A Section include:

My friend Taz....Competition in general...working with Paul Heyman...underutilized talent...MVP's Summerslam promo (loved it)...my thoughts on the most memorable heel turn...The film "The Express" which is essentially the Ernie Davis story...my thoughts on Chyna returning to WWE...Lilian Garcia pending departure from WWE and my thoughts on her (she writes a book, we riot)...A possible Rock return to Monday Night Raw...The Oakland Raiders...Chuck Liddell's future...Pete Rose in the MLB HOF...WWE FINALLY signing Bryan Danielson...and some college football questions.

I was hugely disappointed to hear of Rey Mysterio being suspended for violation of the WWE Wellness Policy. That's a real head scratcher but it will open the door for some young lions to take their game and the perception that goes with it to the next level including Dolph Ziggler and John Morrison just to name a couple.

My Smackdown blog is an entertaining read and can be found on the Smackdown page at www.wwe.com. My own photo for my own blog isn't utilized as I think that some are under the belief that my two bouts of Bells palsy, the palsy won, has given me a face that startles women and children. It's a funny read none the less. Perhaps you will even find a covert message there or two. Ah, dirt! Plus you will read about the Fink potentially dancing with Paula Abdul.

Jerry Lawler did excellently when debating his opposition on live Memphis TV Thursday night. The King is a great talker and to show you how serious he is about this race Jerry actually wore a nice looking, dark blue suit, a starched, white shirt and a striking, red tie. Girlfriend Renee must have had a hand in Jerry's TV attire. You might ask what is the big deal with Lawler wearing a suit but if you knew how much he detested "dressing up" you would better understand my point.

The "Rise and Fall of WCW" DVD continues to be panned and applauded by a variety of people that I respect. I happened to like it but I also will agree that some of the story was not told at all or not told as throughly as some would have preferred. Even with that said, I still wholeheartedly recommend one buying this DVD release and coming to one's own conclusions. The sad thing about a minority of wrestling fans if that one doesn't agree with their opinion then that person, IE yours truly in this case, is a blithering idiot. Hey, I might qualify for blithering idiot status but not on the grounds that I expressed an "opinion."

Don't miss the C.M. Punk-Jeff hardy Steel Cage match for the World's Title on Friday Night Smackdown on MyNetworkTV. You will legitimately be PO'ed with yourself if you miss it so, at worst, set your DVR.

So head on over to the Q&A section which is free even though some folks much smarter than me have encouraged me to make our Q&A section a "Premium Section" that would cost members $5 or so a month plus they would receive discounts on our products. That might be something to think about.

Again, thanks to all of you that are shopping with us and I hope that you get your orders in before midnight Friday when this promotion ends.

Boomer Sooner!

J. R.
