I'm watching football next week, and I'm sure plenty of fans are already with me so I don't care.

Firstly: This is the year 2014.
Secondly: If Vince really wants to be taken credibly in the entertainment world like people say why does he do things like this?

So you already know how the skit's going to play out. They're gonna yell and then go after each other, security pulls them apart while the announcers yell "JERRY! JERRY!". Maybe they do a Austin Powers and the divas start attacking Springer. Take care of yourself and each other.

So I guess they had their "selective hearing ears" on last night whilst the crowd were loudly chanting boring at the whole Bella ordeal and are continuing to go with this shit.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Good god, this segment is gonna be a massive train wreck. Even more hilarious since I was watching the second Austin Powers movie the other night and during the Springer segment I was just thinking how 90's it was and how out of touch WWE was when they had a segment four years ago. I'm sure the child in your sig is extremely excited for Mr. Springer's appearance next week.

The 90s called.
They want Jerry Springer back.

I got no problem with it. If they chose someone "current", they'd just be "desperate for mainstream attention". They're screwed either way. That's cuz both of those things are true.

I hope we get a performance by Smash Mouth performing their hot single, "All Star."

Firstly: This is the year 2014. Secondly: If Vince really wants to be taken credibly in the entertainment world like people say why does he do things like this? My guess would be that Vince lacks faith in his own product. He's always regarded wrestling (or 'rasslin as he calls it) as low brow, and thus feels that the best way to make his company seem relevant is to get any sort of celebrity rub no matter how marginal or irrelevant the celebrity is. We see this when a celebrity guest overpowers a wrestler. Happens all the time, and it makes no sense even in the context of kayfabe. Ever so often he desperately tries to shoehorn "entertainment" into the product, as opposed to letting the wrestling itself be the entertaining factor. Hopefully this will change when HHH takes over.

I'm almost on board with this. I hate the angle but dammit, what a perfect use of a celebrity.

At least they quickly moved-on from the Megan Miller angle or we may have had Maury Povich as well.

I would have loved it if, along with all the stuff Nikki claims Brie did growing up, she kept bringing out people to besmirch Daniel Bryan's character. More people claiming to have had an affair with him. Or hell, have, like, IRS come out and say he filed his taxes fraudulently or something.

Sure we all hate it now, but a month from now when RAW becomes NXT: Redemption Part 2, you'll finally understand the method to Vince's madness.

Too bad Ryback's out. Him as Steve Wilkos would've made this a little more tolerable.
