Whats up with the de-push Burchill and Lea were getting? They were both setting up for what Santino and Beth have now. Burchill was getting into it with Kofi for a while, and Lea attacked Mickie in front of her dad that RAW and also had been working a program together. So, anyone know why the sudden change of heart? Its quite a disappointment they went from a solid program to jobbing.

The final journey or just the beginning?

I just dont think they have come up with anything for them. Remember originally the plan was for them to do an incest angle as brother and sister. WWE decided that they were going to go to PG rated and gear towards kids which I think is part of the reason for there not being pushed as hard as they were.

It made as much sense as Cena/Mickie changing to Kofi/Mickie.

Anyone with half a brain could see that Santino was being groomed for another run with the belt.

I wasnt so sure Santino was going to get the strap, as, i felt they would just do a comedy-type bit with him and beth for a bit.

Lea/Burchill and Mickie/Kofi was pretty darn good if ya ask me and seemed to get a good reaction. It was obvious, though, Burchill was destroying Kofi and the strap would need to change hands if Kofi was going to keep taking beatings and i guess they didnt want to do so?

Hopefully, they find SOMETHING for this duo. I can care less about the "incest" angle, they are both great in and out of the ring.

I love how just because they do the job one week means they're automatically getting "de-pushed."

Paul/Lea vs Kofi/Mickie ended weeks ago and there was more money doing the angle with Santino and Beth.

So much flesh...so little time.

Well, being off tv one week, doing a job to batista, getting partnered with the Brooke Hogan parody, and getten taken out of a possible double title feud would be a de-push i think.

Im thinking they may do a "stable" with regal, lea and burchill?

I was actually surprised to when I watched the tape. A "stable" would make a lot of sense. Good idea.

Actually we do have a DVR. I'm still in the habit of saying tape since we just got it this summer. But no, Shop Rite DOESN'T pay enough but it's a lot more fun than this day care, which incidentally, I've decided to close very, very, VERY soon. I've had it.

Yeah, its pretty bad. Screaming kids, and IT is horrible. Ya break out in a boil encrusted rash that spreads faster than a raging wildfire. Crying or Very sad

But, Paul and Katie Lea. Id love to see them both get a shot too. Burchill is very big and pretty damn skilled, and Katie is solid ringwise, and eeeeasy to look at too.

I like the ideas of putting them w Regal or something. Maybe the Blue bloods could reform..hehe.

To make wrestling look legit every so often. CM Punk getting his nose busted was quite cool.

OK, so next time you're tossing out shirts to the crowd at NEW, one of the wrestlers should come out and bust your nose open, because that'd make the wrestler legit, and that'd be "cool."

People getting injured in wrestling is not something to clamor for, no matter how much you don't like a particular worker.

So much flesh...so little time.

So I guess it makes it ok for Punk to knee a guy and bust their nose open to?
