It's a strange time right now for Vince McMahon as a wrestling character.
 
He's in the story lines, indirectly at least, in two major angles.
 
On Raw, Bret Hart is the latest general manager. There has yet to have been an explanation as to why McMahon would allow this to happen.

I would think WWE would follow-up on this.
 
Then, there is Drew McIntyre. His stock has tanked because he reportedly is high maintenance and isn't getting over.
 
I've said countless times that changing his entrance music would be a good start.
 
As for the reports of him being high maintenance, I sure hope his other half Tiffany isn't the same way.
 
McIntrye just seems boring to me.

I think more character development of McMahon with his favoritism for "The Chosen One" is crucial for the advancement of McIntyre. And it needs to happen now.
 
While a feud with Matt Hardy will help, it's not the answer.
 
SHOW REVIEWS
 
NXT: Wade Barrett, David Otunga or Justin Gabriel. REACT: I was a little surprised to see Heath Slater get cut Tuesday, but there's nothing wrong with these three finalists.
 
Superstars: These matches every week seem a tad too long.  I thought Zack Ryder-Evan Bourne stole the show.
 
Smackdown: I like the mask gimmick CM Punk has going on now. I don't think Vickie Guerrero will help Dolph Ziggler get more heel heat. I just don't think the pairing works. I was surprised Luke Gallows beat MVP.
 
TNA iMPACT: I'm certain Mr. Anderson will turn on Jeff Hardy. I'm fine with that, more fine than I am with Anderson's name for his fans. That name is unnecessary. I didn't get The Band's lack of involvement in their match. Much like McIntyre, Abyss needs new entrance music. "American Made" isn't cutting it. I do like the Chelsea-Abyss-Desmond Wolfe angle, though. The Puppet the Psycho Dwarf-Lacey Von Erich segment was pathetic.
 
LATEST HEADLINES AND MY REACTS
 
WWE

Carlito's father, Carlos Colón, Sr., says Carlito was abusing painkillers, for his back pain. REACT: Don't get why these wrestlers don't take WWE up on rehab.

Upcoming episode of Ghost Hunters will feature the Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame in Amsterdam, New York. The displays of The Missing Link and Bam Bam Bigelow reportedly have some paranormal activity. REACT: Just for the fun of it, I googled their images to remind myself of their awesomeness. This episode interests me.

Plans to drop Virgil. REACT: Way too soon. Don't do it.

Backup plan if Randy Orton is hurt is to have Sheamus take him out. REACT: I like this idea.

Many wrestlers don't want to ever go back to India and would quit their jobs if they were told to go back. REACT: A massive sickness outbreak will do that. Understandable. It'll be interesting to see when India is on the schedule again.

Jim Ross' new job is a talent relations consultant. REACT: Perfect position for him, since he isn't announcing.

Shad Gaspard to possibly mentor the 7-foot-plus Eli Cottonwood on the next season of NXT. REACT: I've seen Cottonwood in FCW, and I'm impressed.

Maria tells TMZ she would like to make out with actress Scarlett Johansson. REACT: Solid choice.

TNA Wrestling

Sean Waltman still dating Alicia Webb (Ryan Shamrock). REACT: The man is obviously still doing something right, although he said he tried to committ suicide recently.

Reid Flair reportedly signs. REACT: He will probably have more success than David Flair, if he can stay out of trouble.

Hulk Hogan has back operation to remove bone spurs. REACT: I wonder how many surgeries he has had.
