Sponge Bubba should get the sack, judging from a few quotes I have read, he seems a right idiot. Who is he anyway?
He's a radio presenter, I think, and an accquaintance of some form of Hogan, hence landing the TNA gig.
In regards to Hunter, I stayed up and watched RAW on a stream and he just said that Vince - and the McMahons in general - always have to have the last word in anything. Hunter said Vince should've "just let Bret go off into the sunset and we'll never have seen him again" (which is quite funny, as - according to Michaels' autobiography - it was Hunter who first suggested the idea of 'screwing' Bret and was furious with the situation that he felt Bret had put the company in).
Word a few weeks ago was that Hunter still has genuine heat towards Bret and refused to work with him. But last night, it looked as though he was being teased into the storyline.
Bret's limitations in the ring include not being able to take a conventional back bump or a shot to the face (when Vince kicked him in the balls t'other week, it was planned to be a slap to the face, but it was deemed far too dangerous given the consequences of Bret's concussion and stroke). A few sites were last week suggesting that Bret's health problems would be worked into the storyline somehow.
A final note, I was glad last night that Cole referred to it as The Montreal Screwjob. He's been doing my head in over the last month calling it The Montreal 'Incident'.
