Gettin' Open- with EddaDrama!

It was once lost, but now found. The Monday night wars. And here to shed some cheers about it is the Rant's own....Gettin' Open-with EddaDrama!

So startin' tonight, the wars begin. Or continue depending on how you look at it. What's a new war here staring TNA goin' against WWE,....may also be called a Re-Match because of the "Generals" leadin' the charge. Of course, Vince McMahon is on the WWE side. No on the TNA side we've got Hulk Hogan, and Eric Bishoff. We had that in the WWE vs WCW Monday Night Wars. Could things be different this time around? TNA have some of the good things that helped WCW get to the top for awhile,..
-WCW had it's own talent to showcase, besides the former WWE stars that went over. People like Diamond Dallas Page, Scott Steiner, Booker T, Goldberg, and a hot cruiser weight division.
-TNA? They got their own talent. Those like AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Hernandez, Matt Morgan, Beer Money Inc, and the innovative X-Division.

Besides all of that, why should anyone get excited? Because it was WCW that made the big splash back in the day. Fans wanna see if TNA can do it. TNA has invested themselves to Hogan and Bishoff's way of runnin' things. As long as they learn from old mistakes, that include a really big one.....STOP COPYING THE WWE. Then they'll do just fine. I'm serious though. All the stuff with superstars jumpin' from one company to another is all well and good. Even havin' people use gimmicks from the other company is ok....not really great, but ok when it fits. But if I see anything like the fake Kurt Angle Screw job(Montreal Screw job), then I'm gonna grill the heck outta them. If TNA really want braggin' rights out here, then they really want to make their own material.

-And the WWE? It's simple for these dudes. They need to simply finish what they've started. From 2009-now we've seen the rise of young talent, and popular stars to freshin' things up a bit on the WWE roster. Legacy members, Dibiase and Rhodes, former WWE champion Sheamus, former US champion Kofi Kingston, current US champion/Tag champion The Miz, and such. With the big one, Wrestlemania right around the corner, we can see that the WWE is lookin' to their proven superstars to make it happen. That's all well and good, but I say that after WM, they really need to get back to gettin' their young talent up. Plus like I said....finish what they started. Stars like Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger, John Morrison and such really need to get heavy spotlight out there. Of course the fall of ECW brought the rise of other young talent. This can be what really breaks things open for both RAW ans Smackdown. NXT has some very nice talent that won't take long to translate to the big rosters in the WWE.
-One more thing RAW needs to do though.....get a real RAW GM. Enough of all this "Guest Host" crap. It could be any of the WWE Legends. (Imagine Brett Hart takin' that job). Or it could be a good way to get JBL back...not to wrestle, but as an agressive GM...that would work. By default former GM William Regal is still in line. Whatever happens, we need a permenate GM...How bout Steph?

-Of course all of this is about the future of both companies. For now, let's just celebrate the rebirth of the Monday Night wars. It's been too long since we had one....let's just hope this war last longer than the last one.
