JR's Blog: RAW Thoughts...Montreal Bound...Don't Count Out OU
Posted: Sep 8th 2009 By: mikeiles
Still in Chicago but heading to Rockford soon w/ ace driver Todd Grisham for the Smackdown taping. BBQ'ed Random Thoughts..... I enjoyed Raw. Bob Barker, in his 80's, did a stellar job hosting Raw. A true pro in a unique environment came thru. Bob proved AARP members can still get the job done. Great work by WWE HOF'er Howard Finkel, too. Johnny Olson & Rod Roddy have nothing on the Fink who was cast perfect in his role Monday night. Great to hear Fink's voice on TV. Jericho vs MVP was an excellent outing. Hopefully, their bout will add more interest to Sunday's PPV. Jericho is truly gifted. Y2J's interaction w/ Bob Barker was damn good stuff. Anxious to get to Montreal Sunday after attending Saturday night's OU-Idaho State game. Montreal has a great wrestling heritage & I'm not referring to the '97 Survivor Series. What "Breaking Point" bout will be the show stealer? Beats me as I write this. The Price is Raw concept was clever but did it overshadow the selling of what is likely to be one of the more unique PPV's of '09? Has any got any info on whether the Undertaker has ever submitted in his WWE tenure? I can't recall it. The Anaconda Vice vs the Devil's Gate seems to be the story in the 'Taker-Punk title tilt. Yes, I'm familiar with the "Vice." Anxious to know the rules of the Kane-Khali Singapore Cane match. Cane on a pole, perhaps? I'm just saying..or asking. Will Batista announce his retirement Monday in Toronto? I hope not...I think not...but he could. Big Dave has had to battle thru numerous injuries. When is enough..enough? I've never seen a Falls Count Anywhere Submission Match such as we'll see Sunday when DX vs Legacy meet. Could we be in line for a "Tupelo Concession Stand" classic. Listen to my Wednesday radio appearances..3:30 pm on KREF am 1400...www.1560thegame.com @ 5 pm both central time. Both do the streaming audio thing on the 'net. Thanks for shopping in our store. Sauce & ketchup biz is good. Jerky sales are booming! Finally, don't count out my Sooners. The Big 12 schedule is still a few weeks away and we'll get better. We can't play much worse in many phases of the game than we did in the loss to BYU. Be well. BOOMER SOONER! JR
