You Can’t Enforce What You Don’t Know

NEWS: |TNA| In yet another wise decision by TNA, Steve “Mongo” McMichael will be the special guest referee in the Monster’s Ball Tag Match between Beer Money (c), Team 3D, LAX and Matt Morgan & Abyss at Bound for Glory. President of TNA Dixie Carter said, “Steve McMichael is a Chicago icon with a solid pro wrestling past. We knew he was one of the only Chicagoans possibly qualified to potentially maintain order in this match. We’re thrilled Steve accepted our offer to be part of TNA’s biggest pay-per-view of the year.”

TNA’s Bound for Glory is WWE’s WrestleMania so they’re doing anything possible (and I mean anything) to push this PPV and make it a success. And since Bound for Glory is in Chicago this year, bringing in former Chicago Bear Steve McMichael is the logic behind this move.

Wrestling fans I wish this were a joke. But it’s true. Steve McMichael is returning to the ring. Even though it’s (hopefully) a one time deal, it still sends shivers up my spine. If you watched McMichael “wrestle” back in WCW, then you know why I called the FBI every Monday night to report the murder of wrestling. It’s because Steve “Mongo” McMichael is/was/will always be one of the worst wrestlers on the face of this earth. He was awful. Even a membership into the Four Horsemen could not save this guy. He had no understanding, appreciation and skill when it came to wrestling. And now TNA is bringing him in to sell the show? ….Yea, that makes no sense.

I just hope someone will put him through a flaming table full of thumbtacks.
