Hello. I am living on the West Coast, where Raw is obviously aired behind the East Coast. I am wondering how it is possible for Vince McMahon to call someone on the West Coast who says they are watching Raw and has the password, when it was not going to be seen for hours there. This just bothers me, because I can't make sense of it. I doubt I will win, but if the guy did call me next week, I wouldn't know the password! Just wondering if the rest of the west knows something I don't.

Powell's POV: You have a few different options. You could travel to the "Lost" island and use the Dharma Initiative time machine and send yourself back in time a couple hours so that you'll know the password like those East Coast snobs. However, the island isn't as easy to find now that Ben moved it, so I would suggest watching an East Coast feed of the show in HD, checking Dot Net, or heading over to WWE.com for the password. Good luck.

With all the excitement that TNA is creating with "Idol" failure Ace Young, I thought of a way that they could launch him to superstardom. They team him with William Hung and become, you guessed it,"Young and Hung" or "Young and Hung Idols". You know Vince Russo would love it. Let me know when the checks roll in.

Powell's POV: Stop encouraging them, Josh.

I wonder if, for the first time in my memory, the dark match before Raw was better than anything they aired. Bryan Danielson, in his hometown, in a 12-minute showcase against Cade,and winning with the cattle mutilation. What a pop that must have been if you knew to look for it. As a smark, it must have been funny to see that 'smark' part of the crowd jumping up and down losing themselves, while all the little kids were just wondering why these grown-ups were marking out.

Powell's POV: It reminds me a little of cheering for Ric Flair while all the kids around me couldn't understand why I would root against Hulk Hogan at an old WWF house show years ago.

I stopped watching WWE years ago, not long after the Invasion storyline ended. I was flipping channels and stopped on Raw when Vince was on stage with Charlie Haas giving away money. As soon as I heard the thing about kissing a diva, despite the fact that I hadn't watched in about seven years, I knew what was coming.
 
As soon as Mae Young showed up, I changed the channel. That one segment reminded me why I stopped watching.  I knew Mae Young was coming out because that's what they were doing seven years ago.

Powell's POV: I have more of a problem with wrestlers from the Attitude Era dominating the main event picture than I do with Mae Young appearing on the show. I understand where you're coming from, but in her case it's more of a repeating gag that they use a couple times per year.
