It’s Saturday morning and I’m already angry — IMPACT. It didn’t seem so bad watching it, but it became very clear when recapping it why they’re down to a 1.0 rating and 1.4 million viewers from the peak. Just rampant stupidity and nonsense. Luckily, Granny is back to save the day, plus we’ve got very by-the-numbers WWE programs to recap. Also SNOOP DOGG SONGS~! That makes me happy.

March 15 2008 Bryan and Vinny Show
Only one Bryan & Vinny Show this weekend, but it’s a huge one! NINETY MINUTES of talk about — well, everything. A largely horrid Impact, ECW and Smackdown made better by a super hot Chicago crowd, my idea for future WrestleManias, horrible announcing, plus who fell off the wagon on Celebrity Rehab, an Apprentice update, strippers, Bigfoot, ghosts, murderers and more. IT’S BECOME THE GONG SHOW, BUT WHO CARES? It’s still better than Impact.

What styles shall we never see again, and who looks good in a mustache? Also, where wrestling and MMA rank on the pop culture radar and tons more! A quite fun show.
