Hilarious when he says that. Has he had his eyes shut thru every broadcast for the last 15 years?
It could be argued that he was
on Wrestling, not
watching it, I suppose.
But, he was once part of an invasion storyline in the mid-90s with ECW and had a match at The ECW Arena - how could he have "Never seen anything like this match" (the Jeff Hardy Extreme Rules Match).
He also spent his wrestling career as a fantastic mic-working Heel (crap Wrestler, though), and got some great heat by making remarks about Stu and Helen Hart, and it sits uncomfortable with me when he has to criticise Jericho, I almost feel as though our intelligance is being insulted.
And, when did he last win a match? SummerSlam 1995 by DQ? And he expects to call Jericho out next week? What do the WWE think has happened;
every fan from the 90s no longer watches Wrestling and there is a brand new set of marks tuning in every week, so they have to repeat the same old stomach turning catchphrases and continually introducing the characters to the audience; "These are the good guys, kids, and these are the big nasty baddies"?
That said, I like the build up for the Michaels-Undertaker match, it reminds me somewhat of the build up to his match with Yokozuna at the Royal Rumble '94, with all the intense promos. I wonder if they'll potato each other during their match? I'd love to see 'Taker get a bit stiff with Michaels (as homerotic as that unintentionally sounds).
