May the Lord smile...and the Devil have mercy

fairtoflair:

After fifteen years of floundering, failure, and general misuse, Mark Henry has found the pair of boots that he was destined to fill all along. He’s the monster.¹ He’s the monster because he did what other monsters have only talked about and got rid of the other monsters. He took out Big…

Hey guys. Look what I did!

This was some good, old school heel heat the likes of which we haven’t seen in years.  However, the rematch in two weeks kind of kills the natural progression of the story, because you really need at least a few weeks of Orton questioning himself and wondering if he can beat the monster.

Good to know Garcian is on the right track. 

And I think it works on a level of Orton not having enough time to prepare for an even tougher contest against the man he can’t beat right now. Weeks of Orton questioning himself would seem silly since he has RKO’ed the bejeezus out of Henry in the past. He can’t stop what’s coming and that should be terrifying.

Oh, and surprise, I don’t agree completely with Scott. The bit after this about “buys” was as laughable as ever. Mark Henry will put my butt in that seat, I assure you. And it shouldn’t be “I want to see the tough monster bad guy get his ass kicked”, that’s for those “chickenshit heels” you are deriding earlier. It should be “I want to see the good guy overcome”. They stuck it in the middle of the show because they wanted you to think about what Mark Henry did for the rest of the show every time you see the broken table and every time you remember that you are no longer hearing the voices of Jim Ross and The King.

At least he’s not giving star rating for non-match segments.
