Wrestling Geeks arise!!

Post Wrestlemania, the smoke is clearing and before we get started:

Clothesline Call-Outs

Clothesline #1 goes out to AJ Lee! Announced on Friday, AJ is officially retiring from WWE. With her career came a charisma only in her frame could she manifest the perfect blend of talent and personality, all the while leaving us on the edge of our seats! Thank you soo much AJ for your crazy-ass feminality!
Clothesline #2 is being handed out to The Rock! I will make myself perfectly clear in saying no matter what stage he performs on, The Rock delivers!! To make this even better, The Warrior Woman, Rhonda Rousey, was at ringside glaring down Stephanie McMahon. Once the Rock was ordered to leave the ring, Stephanie was encountered with the Rock escorting Rhonda in to deliver a little treat. Stephanie, word of advice, never, ever, raise a hand to Rhonda Rousey!
For those that missed Wrestlemania, The Dead Man returned, yes, the Undertaker! I had a flashback to 2004 when he returned as the dead man to face Kane! Seemingly, he donned his biker pants and grew out his hair some, albeit, walking as if he just rose fresh from the grave! None the less, he had a see-saw tussle with Bray, and at one point I nearly gasped when Bray did his reverse spider crawl with The Undertaker clutching Bray out of nowhere by his throat! Bray did some work on the Dead man’s older wounds, but staggering in and out, Undertaker finally came through delivering some “Old School” and a RIP via Tombstone!! Congrats Dead man, hands down, still one of the best in the biz!!
What about Sting?! Did he get screwed? What we saw was a little throwback last Sunday, as D-X emerged to help out good-ol Triple H! Just when the original NWO stepped out to even things up, we get schooled by the Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels, delivering some Sweet Chin Music on the Icon, Sting! Alas, both the two great factions saw eye to eye in the end as Triple H and Sting followed through with respective handshakes making that one hell of a match!

A new US Champion is in the houssse!! That man is John Cena! Now, are we time traveling? Relax, Rusev’s undefeated streak is now over, and artwork for Cena’s “new” US championship has already been commissioned. Does this mean, another spinner belt?!

In other news, its safe to say Brock Lesnar will be out “suspended indefinitely” by order of Stephanie McMahon, after his actions on Monday Night Raw saw him lay out a camera man, Michael Cole, and pinning Booker T and JBL after a ruthless assault in rage upon Seth Rollins becoming the new World Heavyweight Champion! We know this isn’t going to last though as we get closer to Extreme Rules later on this month. How does the fate of the championship rest now with Seth Rollins as our new champion?
More to come as I will be tuning into Raw this week and as I find out more dirt I will be delivering more clotheslines! Have a great Easter Wrestling Geeks and may your spirits “run wild” as spring commences!
