Monday Night Open Mic

Howdy Blog O’Doomers!

On the thread about the best Wrestlemania builds, I put in my vote for Wrestlemania III and mentioned Hogan and Piper having a “go home” promo where they sort of buried their own personal hatchet. As a promo it was nothing groundbreaking but it was very symbolic and as a young mark seeing the two mortal enemies bury the hatchet without some bullshit hug fest was great. Someone asked for the link to that promo and I found it.

BTW, Piper and Hogan did a bunch of coked-out market-based promos for tag matches in 1992 that are hilarious if you want to look those up.

And tonight’s TV schedule:

RAW

No Monday night Football so the NBA has 11 games with Houston-Chicago, Oklahoma City-Golden State and Washington-New Orleans leading the bunch.

One NHL Game: San Jose vs. Winnipeg (you idiot!)

Breaking Bad Mini Marathon on AMC!

New Episode of Gotham

Whatever else you want to watch!

My Rumble choice for tonight is…1998, Fairly run of the mill stuff but Rock does his best to hold things together until Austin enters and Marc Mero is funny in his Marvelous gimmick. Far too many members of Gang Warz though.
