Annie’s View (Nov 24th)

Monday, November 24th, 2003

Hello Viewers,
HAPPY THANKSGIVING VIEWERS! I hope you all are ready for the big day (Especially those who have to cook) Seriously, this is my faorite holiday of the year. Just giving thanks for stuff that you take for granted.

After Thanksgiving I’m off to the desert to ride those cute but fun little 4x4s so if you don’t see or hear from me online till Sunday, you’ll know why.

And for those of you who love me, can you check out www.Anniesview.2ya.com OR Anniesview.2ya .com I’d love the hits and hey tag my board people.

How are all of you? I hope great. I’m still thanking every one of you for the IMs and emails and some of you have even sent me cards in the mail (You know who you are) You have all made me feel very loved and I so appreciate all your concern.

At least my foot’s feeling much better. Therapy works. hehe. Still in all, I will tell you now, don’t break any bones if you can avoid it. I’m almost back to normal though although hubby would say abnormal. :D Thanks again Viewers for just being you.

I know, I can’t stop writing. It will change though trust me. Hey, I’m just glad that I finally have been given something worth writing about.

I wouldn’t be a Hart fan if I at least didn’t say that the word is Vince and Bret have been talking since Survivor Series. I am crossing my fingers Bret returns at Wrestlemania if for nothing else, just to return and say hello to all the fans (Namely me) that have missed him.

Did you all watch the PPV? I didn’t. Did you all read my predictions? Was I right or was I right? Oh, I wasn’t was I? Well, not on most of them. However, after hearing the results of the PPV I should have known better.

First of all, I forgot all about Hunter going to make a movie or I’d have chosen Goldberg as the winner. Okay that’s not true. I hate Goldberg so I probably would have still chosen Hunter. That’s just how I am though. Besides, I like Hunter a lot more so of course I’d rather him win it over Goldberg. Then again, Goldust would have been a better choice but I digress.

Undertaker losing to Vince just sucks. There. I said it and I’m not ashamed of that. Undertaker has been in the company for thirteen years starting with Survivor Series and so, it only seems fitting to me that he won over Vince. But you know Vince, he just has to rub that ego of his doesn’t he?

Still, it does make room for Undertaker to come back as well, what else? The REAL Undertaker which I just loved. I love him on the bike to though but he was supposed to be dead after all.

Yet, I know that sometime sooner rather than later, he’s really going to get on that bike and ride off with his wife and have a great life. So until that happens, I’m just happy he’s still in wrestling.

Benoit and Cena winning ROCKS the house. Well, mine anyway. There aren’t too many guys I LOVE watching wrestle anymore but these men are two of them.

Benoit is excellent. He’s now the best technical wrestler there is I think.

As for Cena, well we all know he’s really my favorite now. Don’t believe me check out my website. He’s right there.

Great matches at Survivor Series from what I hear. I missed a good show. However, speaking of good shows….

RAW really rocked. Not to often have I been able to say that about RAW but this week I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed everything about the show.

First of all, Matt is back and that, is great in itself. I guess once your really good they send you to RAW. Does that mean Cena is on his way? :D

I really wasn’t surprised that Matt broke up with Lita though. But only because Christian’s been getting close to her. Did you love how they looked together? I did. That’s the first good thing I have said about Christian in a while. I do like the chemistry these two set off though. Speaking of chemistry……

What about the kiss that Jericho gave Trish? Boy if that wasn’t yummy looking. Although I’m wondering what Jericho’s wife was thinking. This looks to be another good story line IF they do it right.

Booker T wins over the strongest man. In my View, THAT wouldn’t be hard for Booker to do since he was the only wrestler in the ring at the time.

As for Smack Down, Cena kicked McMahon’s butt and that was just using rap. I laughed so hard I almost fell out of my chair. Yay for Cena. Vince took it really well by giving Show the chance to fight Cena. Did you all see it? Great match. So what if he hit him with stairs?? Right?

Is it me or did Heyman lose a lot of weight? I know he was going to and I think he looks thinner this week than last. Keep up the good work Paul. You look Marvelous.

I love that Vince was bloody. He looks best that way. I say let’s get a wrestler to kick his butt every week. Whaddayasay???

What’s Brock doing bossing people around? I guess it’s to make him look big and bad huh? He’s already big though. Just not my favorite troll that’s all. But I’ll give him credit for being a great wrestler. Even though Cena’s better.

How can you NOT love Rey Rey?? And Jimmy Yang and Rey, well, this was one awesome wrestling match. I was glued to my chair. Great match by both men

Benoit beat Nathan Jones. Now this was a good match because well, Benoit always seems to shine.

Now what did all my Viewers think of the Eulogy? Man, it was strange to see someone from RAW on Smack Down. I liked the picture they had of Undertaker though. So he’s coming back a dead man? Please Give me your Views!!!

I hear Goldust has been let go. Bummer. I really love him. Not crazy about the direction his character was heading but I so loved him with Booker. That was hilarious. Leave it to Vince to get rid of something that was actually amusing.

I love when you guys write me. I really do. Here’s proof.

Last week sometime I wrote that I wasn’t happy with the Teddy Long story. My friend and colleague, Phil wrote me and his comment was:

I don’t think the Teddy Long thing is the worst story in WWE right now. I hated the fact that WWE decided to play the racism card and agree that it is quite possible the most offensive angle in the history of the business. However, it seems to me as though WWE have listened to fans like you and me and have decided to discontinue the angle. Teddy doesn’t seem to be saying many racial things any more and I think that the whole angle might finally be over.

come to think of it there aren’t actually many story lines going on in we right now. we’ve just got handfuls of wrestlers embroiled in disjointed feuds at the moment . that’s a bit worrying. Damn1 this is turning into another massive response! better get to the point.

The worst WWE story line is……The Steiner and Stacy thing. I often think how frustrating it must be for female wrestling fans. Women in wrestling are almost always portrayed in negative ways. And Stacy’s current predicamanet is a prime example of that. Having to watch her being a subserviant ‘slave’ of Steiner and take physical and mental abuse form him and Test week after week is something i don’t enjoy. It’s almost like glamorising domestic violence and it just bothers me a little.

My friend Tina wrote me as well and said :
Hi, Annie! Glad to hear you got your cast off. I’d go completely nuts if I was laid up for that long, and I’m not used to being waited on hand and foot; I’d appreciate it I’m sure, but I like you would go nuts. I must agree with you, the racist Teddy Long, Rodney Mac, and Miserable Mark Henry must be flushed. Whenever I hear Long say “Whity!”, I want to jump through my TV and kick him somewhere he’ll remember it. then I think, Tina, it’s a show, remember, he’s supposed to be bit into giving to the community, ectc. He’s not like that, but you know, it’s complete shit. The other night I was at a party, and my friends started telling racial jokes, I promptly changed the subject and they got the hint. To make a long story short, I don’t like it when whites call other groups names, and I especially don’t like it when whites are the victims of racial hatred from others. It’s ridiculous. It doesn’t surprise me coming from Vinnie, though. I must say, the Shane/Kane thing must be put out of its misery Sunday never to return.

As for the stories you hate

Anything involving Goldberg, who is a waste of oxygen. Anything involving HHH, as he is rapidly turning into a waste of oxygen. And anything involving a McMahon.

I have to agree with Steve here.

Also, when I asked if the Hart match on Confidential a couple weeks ago was the first time they had shown an entire match. Steve wrote me this
No, not the first time. The first 1 or 2 clips they showed was the entire match, then a few months ago, when it was Jericho’s favorite, they showed the King Kong Bundy vs. SD Special Delivery Jones from Wrestlemania 2 (Or maybe it was 1) in it’s entirety (all 9 seconds of it)

Thanks Steve!!!

That’s all for me. Oh that’s right the Question of the Week. Okay, this week’s Question comes from my good friend, Kenny who wanted to know :

What do you think of WWE’s new policy to cut back on high risk moves and matches such as TLC? Will it make it more boring for you or do you think it will still be just as exciting?

Let me know!!!
That’s it for another View. Please send me all of your Views from Undertaker’s return from the dead to my Question of the Week. I love hearing from each and every one of you.
Until next time, be good or be like me, really good doing it!
