Ooh, That Smell…

NOW we get the obnoxious Kevin Owens. Watching him spray that Lysol was a Vietnam-esque flashback to the dorms at Hofstra, where certain residents had an issue with certain aromas. For the record: I WAS CONDUCTING AN EXPERIMENT IN THE COMMON AREA MICROWAVE WITH A BLANK CD. That’s all.

Anyway, KO and Angle are interrupted from poop jokes by the recipient of sheep jokes, Drew McIntyre. Angle adds a stipulation to McIntyre/Rollins later tonight: if Drew loses, he’s banned from ringside at Extreme Rules. Ziggler is furious until Drew says he doesn’t care. All I’ll say is that you can’t be that confident with a history of bestiality in your life.

Elias & Baron Corbin Rock Beantown

You ever go to a concert, and the band brings out a special guest to play along with them? About ten years ago I saw the Trans-Siberian Orchestra on Long Island, and Roger Daltrey of The Who (who? who? who?) showed up to sing “Behind Blue Eyes.” I’ve also kind of sort of seen Will Smith in concert at OzzFest in ’05 — Jada Pinkett’s band was playing the second stage, and Big Willie was visible on the side of the stage just rocking out.

Those pale in comparison to Constable Corbin joining Elias for an impromptu concert. I just want to point out how difficult it is to be the instrumentalist with a singer who has no concept of tempo, rhythm, or pitch. But Elias is a true professional, and he nailed it. I guess that’s why he’s got a working relationship with Fender now.
