Y'know, I haven't been watching wrestling much this year, and it strikes me that this has to be the weakest lineup of Gooker suggestions that I have ever seen. As opposed to which year? This is a pretty awful lineup compared to last year's or even 2005.

The Guest GM crap on Raw. Finally prompted me to turn off for the best part of a year.
Always thought the most cringeworthy aspect of wrestling was when the celebs were drafted in with the intent to grab mainstream headline. This does not work on a weekly basis.
Previously, if there was an angle that I wasn't keen on I'd humour it as it was only likely to be part of a show, but now RAW is total bottom gravey. WWE fawning over sup par personalities that I either hate or have never heard of is not something that makes me want to tune in.

I'd like to nominate ECW General Manager Tiffany. She's an awful actor, she constantly has a huge fakey smile at all times, even in the most inappropriate moments ("Tommy Dreamer suffered a concussion! It may be serious!" ;D), and from a kayfabe standpoint, she's a horrible general manager. She rarely books her performers in PPV matches and she exchanges her top performers for scraps (including allowing Sheamus to go for nothing in return).
And to top it all off, the supposed smart and sophisticated businesswoman has a theme song that suggests that she is a colossal whore that needs sex at all times. Talk about professional and kid-friendly.

This is a pretty awful lineup compared to last year's or even 2005. Pretty much every year, people either say 'this wasn't a pretty bad year' or 'everything was CRAP'. Trust me, there is crap in wrestling at all times. It's just an act of looking for the worst.

I've decided the more I look at it, The McMahon/Helmsley/Batista Administration vs The Cookie Cutter Crew is not only a nomination for this year's award, it's my pick for Gooker of the Decade.
I'll do a timeline of the storyline to show you what I mean.
- Dull McDullard feels he's being overlooked, starts hassling bosses' daughter. - Boss returns from "Days of our Lives"-style injury, fires McDullard - Orton thinks "lol no wai!" and punts McMahon "right in the skull" as a farewell to the fans - No, wait. He's back 6 days later, wins Royal Rumble. - Orton now can't be fired, Shane comes along and manages to "take out" Legacy - Orton claims he told Legacy to take the beating - Shane goes the way of Vince at No Way Out - Steph follows her Dad and brother the next night, her ex-husband looks angry - No wait, they've been married this whole time, disregard the last 7 years, everyone! - Steph is way tougher than her jacked up father, returns but gets DDT'ed by Orton - Orton kisses unconcious Steph in front of HHH - HHH vs Orton pt.39 at Wrestlemania, Hunter wins.
It's all over!
- Orton think "lol, no wai!" again and challenges Hunter to a rematch which he hasn't earned - Of course he gets it, but only if he beats the returning Vince. - Vince forfeits, books Legacy vs HHH/Shane and a returning Basketball Jones for Backlash - Orton punts HHH at Backlash, wins title
Oh well, since HHH is out, that means we can have a fresh title match, right?
- "lol, no wai!" - Orton vs Batista - Batista wins belt, loses belt - Orton vs Cena - I slash wrists - Uh Oh, Spaghetti-o's! HHH is back! Ok, one blow-off match then that's it, right? - "lol, no wai!" - HHH vs Orton vs Cena pt.3
WWE announce a Hell in a Cell PPV in 2 months time. Obviously this is where it all ends, right?
- HHH turns into Orton and says "lol no wai!" - HHH forgets all about Orton and teams up with Shawn Michaels to feud with Legacy.
So, HHH gets no real big win over Orton to bring an end to this storyline? So this storyline doesn't get a happy ending, or an ending at all.
Also, it's really hard to concentrate on writing this with the hypnotic jiggling of Christy Hemme above me.

^ I really did not fully appreciate the absolute incompetence of that booking until you laid it all out there. Bravo, my good man.

Hornswoggle VS Chavo

Slammies
It has to be one of those three.

Hornswoggle VS Chavo Little People's Court Slammies It has to be one of those three. The Slammies 09 won't win it, though it was crappy. It's one of those inductions that will be done I believe while no one expects it yet the floodgates of 'ugh' will break when its posted.

If Raw freeze-framed every time Orton was on screen, we wouldn't be able to tell the difference. WAKKA WAKKA! No, really. If Raw freeze-framed every time Orton was on screen and a lolcat style caption popped up like I put in the timeline, that would be money right there.

The 2009 Slammys award show should be the winner. The show was so bad that it incapusulated everything that was wrong with WWE for the entire year, including the bad guest hosts, badly booked matches, Hornswaggle vs anyone, and Vince complaining that fans were not into the show despite everything being his idea and his ideas are always right. Everything bad about WWE this year is on display in that single episode of RAW (except for the Shawn challenging Taker moment and the mention of Bret Hart which was a minute total).

Jeremy Piven and Ken as Guest Hosts.
They were so bad they made me yearn for a Kevin Nash ironman match followed by a 2 minute promo.
