The Internet Wrestling Community have been in a frenzy after seeing John Cena leave Extreme Rules 2013 with the WWE championship. Some fans are calling for boycotts, some are calling for change, but at the end of the day this is the WWE you are stuck with it and Cena isn’t going anywhere.

Look let me get this right out of the way. I am not a Cena fan at all. I think his promos are terrible, I have little interest in watching him wrestle, and I doubt I’d be a wrestling fan if this were the WWE I grew up with. So before you go and accuse me of being a Cena fan, please think again. I can’t stand watching the man.

That said, the outrage is bordering on ridiculous. At this point you are better off turning RAW off and deleting your WWE.com bookmarks because the guy isn’t going anywhere by choice. John Cena is here to stay and while you and I are tired of his act, we are in the minority. Cena is still a mega merchandise seller, a ratings magnet, and oh I don’t know just drew one of the biggest buyrates in history against The Rock. To expect the WWE to do anything else but give him a big push is ..click here to read more

UFC on FX 8 is in the history books and last night’s event provided some very entertaining scraps, some controversial decisions and some excellent finishes in the final fights. Before getting into my post-fight analysis of this card, including what’s next for the winners of each bout, I’m going to make a slight complaint to the UFC.

I rarely complain about matchmaking or what fights make the televised portion of cards, especially cards that are on free television, but what the hell was the opening bout between Rafael Natal and late-replacement Joao Zeferino doing on the main card? In Natal you have a grinding, plodding fighter who isn’t really known for doing much of anything exciting, unless he’s on the receiving end of a knockout, versus a late-replacement fighter who is making his UFC debut and is likely to gas horribly after taking the bout on only a week’s no tice. The end result was a slow, plodding affair and the UFC missed the chance to show off a couple of exciting Flyweight fights, both of which were buried on the Facebook portion of the prelims. Or even the Featherweight bout between Nik Lentz and Hacran Dias, which had some importance to the divisional rankings in that division.

With that gripe out of the way, let’s go ..click here to read more

Well, the world of thoroughbred racing had its heart broken on Preakness Day when Orb finished fourth in the Preakness this past Saturday, May 18, 2013, so it will be another year before racing can dream of a Triple Crown winner. It will now be 36 years since the Triple Crown has gone unclaimed when the Triple Crown races roll around next year. This is the longest Triple Crown drought in racing’s history, as there was a 25 year drought between Citation (1948) and Secretariat (1973).

That, my readers, is horse racing.

I have to admit, that as a blogger, my job is to be objective, and accurate. As they say, “just the facts, ma’am.” Of course, like all writers, and everyone on the planet, I have a bias. The key is that I have to try my best to keep my bias in check.

That being said, I think after Orb won the Preakness, I confess that I got caught up in all the hoopla over his trainer, Shug MacGaughey finally winning, and the horse’s breeding, that I was not being the analyst I was supposed be. I apologize to my readers for that.

Let’s examine the coverage and the race itself with my favorite device: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

John Cena apparently refused medical treatment on Sunday night after WWE’s Extreme Rules pay-per-view went off the air. As seen on WWE.com, Cena had been loaded into the back of an ambulance and appeared to be on his way to the nearest facility, when he suddenly told those attending to him no, that he was not going to go.

I swear you just can’t make this stuff up.

However, someone in WWE creative did, as once again the point that John Cena is a superhuman fighting machine has been frustratingly driven home. Why frustrating? Well, we all know the answer to that one, right?

Because John Cena is indestructible. That’s it. Do whatever you want to him, hit him as hard as you like, take the boots to him for a straight hour if you want, beat the man to a bloody pulp and then sit back and watch what happens next.

Watch John Cena rise from the dead with a smile on his face as if nothing ever happened.

But I do have a theory. There is perhaps a larger storyline brewing here, one that we have not thought of. Maybe this is not John Cena the clean cut all-American goody two shoes that we have been watching all these years. Maybe John Cena is not Mr. Hustle Loyalty ..click here to read more

WWE Extreme Rules 2013 will be remembered by me for some of the strangest booking in recent memory. If you watched the show and are still wondering how a guy who walked away from a Last Man Standing Match isn’t the new champion, you aren’t alone.

John Cena retained the WWE championship or so I think in a Last Man Standing Match against Ryback in one of the weirdest finishes I can remember seeing on a WWE event in ages. The story here was Cena’s injured ankle which the announcers brought up several times throughout the match. The match was probably worlds better than you expected if you haven’t seen it. These two guys broke a lot of tables and kept the action moving for most of the bout. Both guys hit power bombs for near falls. There were certainly a couple of questionable moments in the match that will probably make it on a future Botchmania video. The match got a little corny as it hit the halfway mark. Nobody sold a thing to the point that it just got ridiculous. They’d hit each other with everything and get back up a few seconds later. One of the things that was also a bit odd is that they really put over this ankle injury yet ..click here to read more

Vitor Belfort is without a doubt a multi-dimensional UFC personality. Only Vitor can thank God for his strength and ask a rabid Brazilian fan base to beat up a reporter that dares ask him about TRT in one press conference.

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Vitor Belfort may be in the middle of one of the greatest comebacks in UFC history but we all know about the pink elephant in the room, TRT. Belfort is not only blind to the elephant but is willing to assault anyone that has the gall to ask him about it. Threatening physical harm on a reporter for asking the question probably isn’t the smartest way to quell criticism over his TRT exemption.

I have to admit that I have mixed feelings when it comes to Belfort’s TRT. I agree with many that the whole thing just seems kind of dirty. A guy who has a better physique and appears to be in the prime of his fighter career at 36 on TRT seems oh I don’t know…kind of odd to me. On the other hand I want to give the guy credit for putting together one of the most impressive win streaks in recent years inside of the UFC.

I also do find the scrutiny here a bit interesting. A week after ..click here to read more

This week’s WWE Friday Night SmackDown opens up with another waste of time…I mean episode of MizTV. His guests are The Big Show and Randy Orton. Orton makes his way out first, followed by Show. Miz reminds them they’re competing in an Extreme Rules Match and says that, because of their issues at WrestleMania, this will be one of the most anticipated matches at ER. I beg to differ. Ambrose/Kofi and Shield/Hell No! will both be much, much better. Miz asks Show about being laid out by the RKO last week, asking if it’s a preview of ER. Show expected a weasel like Miz to make a statement like that. Orton hit the RKO from behind, like the snake in the grass he is. Orton attacked him at WM and last week. At ER, there are no rules. Show can use anything he wants to rip Orton apart. But he doesn’t need weapons like Orton does. In St. Louis, Orton’s hometown, the last thing anyone will remember will be a TKO instead of an RKO. Orton calls Show’s story interesting and entertaining, but the ending is inaccurate. ER does take place in Orton’s hometown, and he’s not letting Show beat him in front of his city. The reason why they’re at each other’s throats is ..click here to read more
