Other Notes:

  • Victoria just bit off Stacey Kiebler's nails so that's something
  • "My name starts with C too" - Christian
  • The 1.6 billion people of the great nation of India are Testicles
  • "It's a dream match King, it's almost like fantasy football" pretty sure JR doesn't know what fantasy football is
  • "Who cares about Steph? It's a man's world" - I didn't think anyone could be more off the wall than Tazz but Earnest Miller is off to a pretty good start 10 minutes into the 11/28 SmackDown. Some more from him:

Asking if he can get a suit made with the same pattern as Matt Hardy's pants

"That's martial arts" - Describing Tajiri's green mist

"Man that referee is a snitch" - after Mike Chioda told the timekeeper Eddie and Chavo can't retain the tag titles by walking away

  • Here's your dose of Mattitude
  • The Thanksgiving day episode also has this gem from Michael Cole
  • The 12/2 Raw has the promo that inspired the ballad of little Dave Batista
  • "Michaels is not taunting he has more class than that" - JR, Michaels then proceeds to spit on HHH
  • Bill DeMott gets the Marvelous Marc Mero theme
  • So Rikishi rapping was really just him talking normally but rhyming
  • D'Lo Brown's a heel now I guess
  • Shawn Michaels cutting a promo after jumping into a dumpster was weird as hell. Also I'm pretty sure they spent all of Raw (12/9) trying to break the record for the amount of times "the end is near" is said in a 2 hour span.
  • I wish they'd stop editing shit out of the Network
  • Cutting to commercial immediately after Benoit locks in the Crossface is an odd choice. Also bizarre that the referee has an argument with Benoit saying he isn't the legal man then spends the next minute trying to get him out of the ring yet still counts the pin.
  • The set for Armageddon is awesome
  • "Die Canadian scum" - Bubba Ray Dudley to Lance Storm. Bubba and William Regal also botched a pin somehow
  • According to Michael Cole, Al Wilson is "an ass" for not wanting a sex tape involving his fiancé and daughter to be seen
  • The world's smallest crowd sign
