WHAT I MISSED WHILE I WAS BARFING

Oh gad. I just spent the last day puking my guts out. I think I ate me a rotten jalapeno popper. Not a good time.

So, to catch up, here's what I missed while I had my head buried in the toilet:

MONDAY NIGHT RAW

WISHED I WAS BARFING

I actually got to see RAW before the barfing got underway. It, aside from Cena's promo, was borrrrring. But that doesn't matter since I (and a ton of other people) will be ordering the Rumble anyway.

ROH TV TITLE TOURNAMENT

BRACKETS FILLED IN

No Roddy or Tyler makes sense to me, and had Kenny Omega not been in Japan, maybe he could've fit in. Either way, this tournament should be exciting to watch. I can't see it being a Steen/Generico final, makes sense for them to save their match for a little longer down the road (plus they don't really need the title for their feud). I could easily see Kenny King or even Eddie Edwards winning - but I'm not sure.

SANTINO MARELLA
