Credit where credit is due. I did use Justin's OP as a template since it was already a very good OP. I rewrote some stuff, changed a bunch of images, added matches, added Japan, and some of my trademark snarky whit.
As for "stealing" the OP, I resent such accusations of outright plagiarism. In fact, there's a phrase the film industry uses to describe what I did that goes something to the effect of "Give me the same thing but different".
For example, compare Hulk Hogan's babyface persona to John Cena's babyface persona: It's the same thing, but different. Or Bryan Danileson to Daniel Bryan; Same thing (esthetically), but different.
I'd try to compare The Rock to John Cena, but honestly, that's not even fare to John Cena. I mean, how can you even compare The Great One to John Cena?
Answer: You can't!
In conclusion:
>Stole OP >Same thing but different >Same but different >Different

Anyways! So, how about that episode of Smackdown last night? Was that good or what? Like, when that guy did that thing, and then Kane showed up and everyone was like "whoa" and we're all "Oh Shi-"
Aw who am I kidding, I didn't watch the episode last night; I was watching fight build up for Lesnar Vs Carwin tonight.
I do like what they are doing with Samoa Joe right now. Just back to no real gimmick, just go in and beat people up. As a side note, I think "Joe's gonna kill you" is one of my favorite chants right now, and has been for awhile.

Hopefully they've started to realize that when people think TNA, they really want one of the first things they think of to be a bad ass Samoa Joe. He needs to be one of the faces of TNA.

You mean like he was circa 2005-2006? Or that eighteen month long undefeated streak there in? I love that Joe. I wish he'd come back and entertain me.

Yes, pretty much. It seems like they do that, then drop the ball for a while and practically ignore him.

What else would help with Joe is changing his current theme. I like it as I am a big Godzilla fan, but then it goes into the weird rap that is so very clashing with how it starts. It makes me completely uninterested once it changes to that.

But that would require them to realize that if people wanted to watch Sting and Hogan, we'd watch old WCW tapes.
(Only we wouldn't.)
I can imagine the writers meetings:
"Okay boys, we need a plot in three acts. Act three is 'Sting beats people up with Baseball bat.', but honestly, that could be act one or two. How do we make this happen?"
"Hogan and Sting get into an argument over money, Sting gets suspended."
"Great work! This stuff practically writes itself!"

"Michelle, do you take this man for richer or for poorer, in death and in death, in sickness and in busted eye sockets? Do you agree to forsake all others, at least until he gets tired of his neck tattoo? Will you go ONE ON ONE WITH THE UNDATAKAH as long as you both shall live?"
Wait what? I thought the Undertaker was already married?
Divorced his first wife Sarah a few years ago, which is why his tattoo of her on his neck has faded/been removed. Not exactly sure when the relationship with Mcool started but i would assume it was at least a contributing cause to his divorce.
Well, that answers the mystery of who put Taker in a vegetative state.
I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may REEEEST IIIN PEEEEACE
I keep scrolling up to that picture and thinking, Really? The UNDERTAKER? I guess years of conditioning since childhood has made me think of him as tremendously scary and unattractive.

I never thought of including Japan in my old OP.
Also, get your own Hart Foundation joke.
I tried! I couldn't think of one! T_T

As in, it was better then watch Germany rape Argentina in the World Cup.
I saw more theatrics in the soccer, actually.

Undertaker, I just met her.
I now pronounce you Phenom and Wife.
I need to go to bed.

That's not Taker's normal kinda girl, she's too tall.
Taker normally likes 'em 6 feet and under.[/shameless steal]
Wow either he's shorter than he's billed or she's taller.
I refuse to recognize that wedding as official since it wasn't performed by Paul Bearer. 8-)
Did somebody say "three minutes"?
Alternatively: I now pronounce you "UnderCool".
Well, that answers the mystery of who put Taker in a vegetative state.

The "We made our money and left" club.
Speaking of Austin, his twitter feed is one of the most hilarious things I've ever read.
Not pictured, btw: Jim Ross and Paul Heyman. They were both at UFC 116 last night along with those 3. All 5 were sitting together.
Also, that picture before that explains why i'll never get Taker on Raw.
Sigh.
