Dusty’s Blog: A Modest Proposal For Changing The Shape Of WWE

There’s a guy who gets paid to do this who brings up that wrestlers should get about three months of mandatory time off per year every couple months.  What he doesn’t realize is that it’s not really adequate to just want something to happen.  I want to impregnate Scarlett Johansson, but I realize that might [...]

Dusty’s Blog: Post Monday Night Raw Autopsy

This one will be short and sweet since I’m feeling under the weather today. Kevin wanted me to do this because he’s busy with something or another else. We’re choking down Summer Slam, so they better make this count. Triple H comes out to start the show. How long do you get to be the [...]

Dusty’s Blog: Post Monday Night Raw Autopsy

I came up with that title at three o’clock this afternoon. See, cause it’s after the show aired? Eh? Ah, forget it. Kevin is incapacitated this week, so I’m back here doing what I used to do every week – review Monday Night Raw for no pay whatsoever. Last week’s show lit the internet on fire [...]

Dusty’s Blog: A Closer Look At The Jeff Hardy Situation

I have been conditioned to believe that everything involving a Hardy brother right now is a work. A rib. A con. A ruse. An implement used to pull the wool over people’s eyes. Not kosher. You get the general idea. So when I saw Jason Powell post this yesterday afternoon, I read it with a [...]

Dusty’s Blog: Once Again, Matt Striker

Even if WWE doesn’t think Matt Striker is absolutely terrible at his job (which, in no uncertain terms, he is), he should be fired anyway for his boring, self important, Mick Foleyesque rant against the internet this past Friday on Smackdown. Shut the fuck up and call the match, you goddamn imbecile. By the way, [...]

Dusty’s Blog: The Rain, Michael Cole, And Other Things

The rain: Man, it sure was raining a lot this past weekend. If you get a chance, ask Jeremy Maes about it. Better still, ask him where he was while he was being rained upon. You know, for conversation sake. Michael Cole: So it occurred to me watching Summer Slam last night that Michael Cole [...]

Dusty’s Blog: About Matt Striker

I’m going to put this as plainly as possible, and hope that someone from WWE reads it. Matt Striker needs to be fired immediately. Please don’t try to push him as a babyface. Please don’t try to turn him heel. Just get rid of him. He is the worst performer in all of professional wrestling, [...]

Dusty’s Blog: Predictions for the upcoming draft

It is with sincere apologies that I post this article a day late and a donut short. I have no excuse, since I had it written and it was explicitly talked about on the audio I just did with Eric (scroll down, yo). I just plain forgot to post it. So a little bit of [...]

Stunt Granny Decade-End Awards: Dusty’s Picks

The older I get, the more I question why I still hang around with wrestling. Wrestling is the old friend who betrays your trust time and time again, but you keep forgiving him because of all the great times you had together 20 years ago. You keep giving him more and more chances, and he [...]

Dusty’s Blog: Diary of the new Monday Night Wars

So about a million years ago, back in the early ’90s, I remember reading this Sports Illustrated column where the guy did a diary type piece tracking the several college football bowl games that were on in one day. And I thought it was funny, and well written, and a good concept, and so I [...]
