Seems like 5 years, Loved the Mark Henry return the other night. Actually enjoyed his crushing of the Mexicans.

Few thoughts on last night....

Did anybody see the injury to Zack Ryder in his match against Jack Swagger? He got thrown into the corner...I don't know what happened but he was bleeding profusely from his face. Not a fake injury. Speaking of Swagger, who was that homeless looking guy that followed Swagger to the rink. Old timer.

6 men in Elimination chamber.... Y2J, Team Hell No, Orton, Henry. Swagger, bunch of guys just returning for this match.

I like Punk stealing the belt from Rock.

I fell asleep around 8:00 trying to watch Raw last night...

[shaud19]

For the few who care, elimination chamber tonight...my predictions:

Who SHOULD win the chamber match based on how long they've be in story line, in order: Kane, Bryan, Orton, Y2J, Henry, Swagger

Who going to win because it's all about the big main event at the biggest PPV, in order: Y2J, Orton, Kane, Henry, Bryan, Swagger.

Rock vs. Punk...some outside help..Lesner makes an impact

Shield vs. Cena/Shemus/Ryback- I think it only makes sense to have Shield win this.

Miz finally beats Cesaro for the US championship with the leg lock

Big show vs. Del Rio for third time...same out come. I hope this ends the rivalry.

The Miz won't win especially after dropping Punk on his head last week. Just a terrible talent and terrible person. I judge the last part mainly on him being from Cleveland.

I just did a google search and he botched a move at a live, non-televised event? The first I've read about it. I agree he's not very likeable but I think he gets the title tonight because he's awesome.

Went for his finisher and smashed Punk's head into the mat. Gave Punk a concussion as well. He won't win the belt and honestly isnt even worth being on live TV.

Its a shame they bury guys like Kidd, Hart, McGillicutty, etc. for guys like The Miz. Just a no talent hack.

[shaud19]

Swagger winning the elimination match is a complete joke. Hopefully Undertaker comes back tonight and starts feuding with Punk. I've read Undertaker is banged up and may no be ready for WM, big disappoint if that's true.

Actually like Swagger winning. The storyline between him and Del Rio could get very out of hand. The match itself will probably be terrible, but to me its worth it for the storyline.

Could possibly set up Swagger winning the title at WM and Dolph cashing in and beating him the same night.

And that honestly makes the most sense. Ziggler's MITB runs out after Wrestlemania so this would make sense.

[shaud19]

Ricardo Rodriguez running away with the MITB suitcase was funny. How about the match before hand? Del Rio vs. Ziggler. That was a cool move when Del Rio threw Ziggler backwards off the top rope.

I like the new WWE belt Rock introduced. Like I said before it would be nice if Rock actually had some matches, not just talking

They have Swagger billed at 6-7 tall and 270 pounds , I think he is closer to 6-4 250 , but even at that he is not a small man , this guy can wrestle , at 30 years old now is the time to give him that push into a top of the billing slot , he has paid his dues more so than some of the guys that are being given prime time right now ..

All this talk of Jack Swagger...

http://www.tmz.com/2013/02/20/wwe-st...ic-violations/


WWE star Jack Swagger was arrested last night in Mississippi, TMZ has learned -- after allegedly driving under the influence ... with pot in his car.

Sources close to the situation tell TMZ, Swagger -- real name Jacob Hager -- was leaving a "Smackdown" taping at Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi when he was pulled over for speeding.

According to law enforcement, the officer who pulled him over determined Swagger was driving under the influence -- and a search revealed Swagger was in possession of marijuana.

We're told Swagger -- a former WWE World Heavyweight champ -- was taken in by local sheriff's deputies ... and later released on his own recognizance.

He has been charged with DUI, marijuana possession, and speeding -- all misdemeanors.

We reached out to WWE, who tells TMZ, "Mr. Swagger is responsible for his own personal actions."

That makes me detest Swagger even more. I'm surprised WWE is nonchalant about the incident. He doesn't deserve to go to WrestleMania.
