Road to WrestleMania tour was at a mall near my house today. Jimmy Hart was around all day which was awesome. The Highlanders signed from 4-6, when I got up there i shook their hands and Rory said he was suprised how cold it was for Texas, I said yeah its really cold for Texas, but chances are it will be like 90 degrees when your back here for Raw. I owned some Cena marks on the Raw challenge trivia game, so lol @ the Cena kids for getting owned. I was proud of my accomplishments Finally I got picked to head up on the stage for the main trivia game, I got to stand there with Jimmy Hart for a good while and it was strange towering over someone you've watched on tv for so many years(Im 6'0-6'1 so he has to be around 5'9 at the most). My question was what superstar was an amatuer wrestling champion at the University of Minnesota. I don't remember the other 2 choices, I didn't listen since I knew it was Shelton Benjamin. I ended up winning a Raw hat and some dog tags. Also, they would ask you your name and your favorite wrestler, it was Cena/DX/Batista/Rey mark central, so I got heat from the fans when I laughted when the guy with the mic asked if I was gonna say Cena to, and i said hell no, Edge!! It was a pretty good time, I'll head back tomarrow for a visit with everyones favorite World's Strongest Man, Mark Henry.

Damn, I went to the two years ago at Town East with Lita and Hillbilly Jim. I loved the displays (found out my hand is the same size as Big Show's) and other stuff. I'd love to go to this one but, don't want to drive out to Hurst.

I wanted to do the call a match thing like i did then but the choices at this years were Matt Hardy vs. Gregory Helms or Chris Benoit vs. KC James!!!! While at the one last time the choices were 3 WM main events from the last 3 years. Little drop off in quality there.

Man, you should have said somebody like AJ Styles, Colt Cabana, Homicide, etc. was your favorite wrestler. Other than that, good job. You represented well.

Yeah, I honestly thought about saying Christopher Daniels, because he is one of my top few, but I knew it would just end in utter silence, so I went with Edge because I knew that would rile up the Cena marks, which it did, and they were pissed when I answered my question right.

Also, another small note I forgot about. I may have saved Sabu from life of a jobber. I was wearing my Sabu shirt, and when I was in the line for the Highlanders, the WWE PR representitive that came with them (who was HOT by the way) asked if that was a Sabu shirt. I said yes, she asked if I thought Sabu should be ECW Champion, I said definatly, he's amazing to watch. So yes, WWE people are now aware that people like Sabu. Let the pushing begin......... *Note* I don't actually expect him to be pushed now, but if it happens, just remember, I made it happen, lol

Seriously does Blackberg even encite some kind of reaction?

I know what the fans want! They want to see more of Lashley as ECW Champ!! They love seeing Test getting title shots! I know what they want damnit!!................. Hold on a second. ::::Vince gets out his cell phone and dials a number:::: Vince: Hello, Michael Cole? Cole: Hello, Mr. McMahon!

Cool story! You know if I was there and they asked me who my favorite wrestler was, I probably would have said Snitsky. If all the kiddies became silent and stared at me, I would have just been like "Uhhhhhh..... it's not my fault?"
You mentioned that the Highlanders broke kayfabe. Did they speak in Scottish accents even? That would be funny to see wrestlers drop their accents when talking to fans. Like I bet Vladimir would have some suave accent or something "Oh hello kind sir, thank you for visiting the Road to Wrestlemani tour!" Then the cameras flip on and he blurts out "DOUBLE DOUBLE E!!!!"
