## Resource

Kris and David are back as we discuss the week that was August 10-16, 2005. Topics of discussion include: WWE being in a total lame duck state with Spike TV as their contract is running out soon. SmackDown featuring the Eddy Guerrero/Rey Mysterio/Dominik Mysterio soap opera, guest starring MISS CRABTREE. Raw in Montreal, as Shawn Michaels is having the time of his life being the old HBK in front of a raucous crowd mocking Bret Hart and Hulk Hogan. Ashley Massaro winning the Diva Search over Leyla Milani. Ken Anderson becoming Mr. Kennedy. Masahiro Chono winning the G1 Climax as a tribute to Shinya Hashimoto. A wild angle in the WWC featuring Eddie Colon being imprisoned in the Dominican Republic. The Summer of Punk ends in ROH as he loses his title to James Gibson in Dayton and then loses his farewell match to Colt Cabana in Chicago Ridge. TNA Sacrifice on PPV and lots more TNA stuff in one of the most stable eras of that promotion's history thanks to Scott D’Amore’s booking and the impending debut of Impact on Spike TV. That this was all 21 years ago is wild to think about. This was a really fun show, so check it out!!!
