I'm a bit ashamed to say that it's taken me this long to read it, but WHAT A RIDE! I can't wait for the next chapter, man!

I agree though, it's a shame that they can't find something for the guy to do, as entertaining as he's been since the "House of Pain" stuff. They've got a million hours of programming a week on the network now, they need to dedicate 3-5 minutes for a Mark Henry squash until he's seen as a threat again, after two months of Brock Lesnar killing him and the Real Americans spinning him.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> If I'm not mistaken, it was rumored to take place at Summerslam, but never did.</p>

Sad news, as Mae Young has passed away: http://www.wwe.com/inside/mae-young-passes-at-90-26173408 EDIT: here's a video the WWE production team put together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRrUPF1uGvM#t=0

I made an offhanded comment where I said, "I wonder what they are going to do with Arnold Rothstein. I mean he died and they never found out who killed him so I am wondering how they will write that in and who they will have kill him."</p><p> </p><p> My friend looked at me and said, "Thanks a lot dude."</p><p> </p><p> Well I had no clue why he was angry over what I had just said so I asked him and he said he was pissed because he really liked the Arnold Rothstein character and I have now spoiled the show for him.</p><p> </p><p> I stated to laugh which made my friend even more pissed. Finally, after I was done laughing I said I did not spoil anything because it is common knowledge that Arnold Rothstein was killed. He said it was not common knowledge to him because he had never even heard or Arnold Rothstein until the show came on the air. </p><p> </p><p> I guess what I am wondering is, is there a statute of limitations on spoilers?</p><p> </p><p> If so does stuff that actually happened in real life fall under it?</p><p> </p><p> I mean I did not think talking about a murder that happened nearly ninety years ago would constitute a spoiler but I guess I am wrong about that.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Just chiming in to say that I've never heard of Arnold Rothstein, too, and if I was your friend, I'd also be pissed that you spoiled the show <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Finally got a chance to catch my breath and read the show-- all I gotta say is WOW! Next week is looking to be a can't-miss episode!

Early on you voted which person do you want to play a bigger part of the storyline out of Acid and Mikey James. Mikey won by one vote. I have a lot of this planned out in notes and the winner of the vote was going to take this time off, then return on this show and play a bit of a bigger role in the upcoming shows/seasons. Stupidly I wrote most of the plans whilst Acid was winning the vote... this meant that when it was the King of Kings Cup qualifier I had Buddy Garner to face Mikey James instead of Acid because I thought he was the loser of the poll and so a less important character. <p> </p><p> So to make sure that I stay true to the poll, I've had to go back and edit it so Buddy Garner faced Acid instead, so this is meant to be Mikey's return from the Skullcrusher he recieved in Season One. So apologies for changes, also when I did go back to edit that I messed up the coding and so that episode now looks all messed up. Luckily it's a bit back so unless someone wanted to read this from the beginning I doubt it would be getting read but either way I'll redo that show at some point. </p><p> </p><p> I feel like these two episodes have been a fairly average start to the season but I'm pretty excited to continue as there is some big stuff happening that will open up a lot of what is planned for seasons 4 + 5.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Hey, at least you were honest, man <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> I've got a little confession of my own to make: I wasn't too familiar with either Mikey James or Acid back then, and I probably picked Mikey just 'cause his name sounded like Mickie James <img alt=":rolleyes:" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/rolleyes.png.4b097f4fbbe99ce5bcd5efbc1b773ed6.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Anyway, I read Monkeypox's <a href="http://greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?p=176251" rel="external nofollow">Mark Cuban Does DaVE!</a> and I got to like Acid as a character. </p><p> </p><p> What's my point? No point, really. Just wanted to comment, and you're right that it's been a fairly average start, but I'm excited that you're excited. That's a good sign! <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

YES! YES! YES! I'm so glad this is back! And just in time for the Fall season to start, too!

Fairly straightforward show, but that's exactly what we needed. Good to see Atomic back on his feet and SAW 4 should be amazing!

<p><span>http://cdn.wl.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/15e8ifr.jpg.gif</span></p><p> </p><p> You can see Nattie let go of the hold before AJ taps.</p>

<p>LOL I agree with Buddy-- 'Don't go into the light, Atomic!' <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> I like how you've highlighted Jack as someone who believes in Atomic's quest but doesn't necessarily think his way is the best. Keep it up, buddy, and keep 'em coming!</p>

<p>NOOOOO! You can't do this to Atomic! NO! NO! NO! (Although if he comes back in a mask at SAW 4, it would make all of this worth it <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> ) </p><p> </p><p> I like the begrudging respect between Jack and Buddy, hopefully they mend their differences and refocus themselves on helping Atomic out once again. </p><p> </p><p> Great show, man! It was only a matter of time before Gargantuan actively blocked Atomic's path, and we're starting to see the Champ's full fury here!</p>

Nice to see that I wasn't alone on this <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> I turned off Avast just so I can open the game, then turned Avast back on and so far it's been okay.

I loved early face Orton and his feud with Triple H, even when he popped out of a cake and won the SvS (I think?) match that made Maven a RAW GM for a night <img alt=":rolleyes:" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/rolleyes.png.4b097f4fbbe99ce5bcd5efbc1b773ed6.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

I'm glad you picked WWE (Didn't really get the chance to watch WCW all that much, though I'd imagine the NWO stuff got old pretty fast) Ooh I'm curious to see how you deal with The Crippler. He gets a ton of hate (deservedly so) but WMXX was such a heartfelt moment between him and Eddie, I don't know how anyone can recreate it. To sum it all up: I hope you finish writing WMXX soon 'cause I'm excited for this!

OH MAN! My lack of knowledge (and disdain) for the mid-90's is a big reason why I don't predict on your awesome diary, but that won't be the case with this new one! I can't wait!

AAAAAAAAH! What happens next?! POST THE SHOW!!!

I agree, I can't wait for SAW 3!

Nice couple of shows, man. You're handling that simmering tension between Jack and Buddy really well <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Keep it up!
