    Can you say jump the shark? Hornswoggle as the anonymous GM? Seriously?

    They shoulda kept the GM anonymous.

    And what was with all of the short butt matches?

    Telling you all, check out TNA. You have missed a helluva recent run in the last three months.

    I started to get into TNA until all of the old heckers from WCW came along. I guess I'll give another chance. (If Directv still carries Spike)

    The writers finally feel the need to resolve the storyline, and this is the best they could do? Holy heck what were they thinking?

    @ Don'tKnowMe: It felt like they were doing an episode of Beat The Clock matches. That's one thing I don't like about the WWE. Short matches.

    @ DublinMike: The WWE has had the anonymous GM storyline going for how long?

    Yeah, disappointed in them for having Hornswoggle as the GM. makes no sense. Definitely getting out of hand. I may check into TNA again. See if its better.

    Was it ever explained how he was the anonymous GM? Knowing the WWE, probably not.

    I left out the space so the @users will work. You also need to use their exact sn for it to work.

    The short matches are just lazy booking. There is no psychology behind most matches in the undercard either. What story is getting people's attention other than the Punk/AJ/Bryan storyline? That's on it's last leg. What will they have after Summerslam? They need to start actually giving the midcard a showing. Also, give the midcard something to compete for. Actually give the US, tag team and IC titles some value.

    these guys are on the road 300 days a year. They work more matches than you can comprehend. Short matches comes with their territory (something no where else does). plus on this raw, they were recording Smackdown too. that'd be why.

    as for hornswoggle, people are over-thinking it. the anonymous GM thing ended forever ago. yes, it was really stupid to make it be hornswoggle but it was an easy way to give quick closure and amuse the kids (which they're heavily geared toward).. it wasn't meant for us to enjoy it. it was just easy closure for something that was never going to pop up again.

    If you want to watch more wrestling, watch smackdown or search for the new NXT tapings on youtube. The roster has some potential and those shows give the mat game more time.
