So then, JBL is returning to Raw as a competitor. And it looks like the RKO vs. Y2J saga is over already. Now it's JBL vs. Y2J and RKO vs. Jeff. Good stuff?

No, not good stuff. I like the Hardy push, but I hate the idea of having to see JBL back in the ring again. I will be extremely dissapointed if they put Jericho, an extremely talented wrestler who still can put on a great show, with JBL, who quite frankly is past his prime and could do nothing more than bring down Jericho's return WM match. I mean, he was out of shape before he started commentating, imagine what he's like now.
 
Well, the way I see it, JBL is most likely going to have a feud with Ron Simmons, his old APA partner. The Y2J Vs. JBL may happen at WM24, but probably not before JBL Vs. Ron Simmons.

As to Wolfie's comment, I have to say I agree to a certain degree. Yes, he is out of shape, but JBL has always been large. 6'8, 300+ pounds. Not very many people that can size up to that, though isn't saying much for a guy who was beaten by Rey Mysterio so easily. JBL has always been a good grappler in my memory, which coupled with his size can spell trouble for a lot of people. But that'll only get you halfway. JBL needs to focus on his mat skills. If he improves those, and throws in a few arials here and there, I'd say he's on his way.

Did you really just put aerials and JBL in the same sentence? That's about the biggest oxymoron I have ever heard. The day that JBL jumps off the top rope is the day that pigs fly over a frozen hell with Big Daddy V and Mark Henry putting on a quality match.

And JBL most definitely isn't in even remotely the same shape he used to be in. Look back to his acolyte days versus his last run and you'd see what I mean. He was ddefinitely never the most in-shape guy, but he was certainly less defined during his last run as opposed to his younger days.

Remember though, JBL isn't the youngest man anymore. Also put in the fact that he might not be using preformancing enhancing drugs due to the wellness policy, so he might be in great shape, but not ripped like he used to be.
 
So um who do u think is the top future star in OVW n FCW.
I think Ted DiBiase Jr is going to become a top star!

Tbch I don't really follow OVW that much. But I would assume that they sent DH Smith back down there since he appeared on RAW once and was gone, so I'd say DH Smith.

Actually theres allot of concern right now in OVW about the future. There are very few WWE developmental talent up there right now, most talent are being sent to the new developmental territory of Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW).

I'm kinda curious as to whether they're actually going to show the matches from that or not. I'm kind of anxious to see some of the NJPW guys versus the TNA guys.

At this point, I have no clue myself. It would be awesome if we get to see matches with both.
 
So my suspicions were confirmed on Monday... JBL is indeed grossly out of shape. Can't wait for the feud between him and Jericho to be over so that Jericho can move onto someone more in his class.
 
Time for some TNA discussion.

Chris Harris has left TNA
Expect him to sign a contract soon with WWE.

Opinion: Not a surprise considering he wasn't used that much. He needs to hit the gym a bit though, hes got a little bit of a gut on him.

TNA's Women's Division
They have been headlining several shows recently, they have some real good quality wrestlers, Gale Kim is surprisingly good, Awesome Kong is just huge, ODB is an interesting character.

Opinion: There attacking an area the WWE sucks in and are succeeding. Why not try it again *COUGH FIX THE X-DIVISION COUGH*

Bad news for LAX
Homicide has to have shoulder surgery soon. Out for months.

Opinion: Will hurt TNA's tag team division allot. LAX are major players and the loss of the flyer is not good.
