"Now that my brief interlude with Luke Graham's over, it's back to important business," McGraw said. "Billy Robinson, you're in black-and-white, while ol' Bugsy's live in technicolor, baby! It's time these people get a new class of TV champ. I'm gonna' call the FCC, the FBI, the Better Business Bureau, and I'm gonna' end your reign of boring. You're cancelled, baby!"

"Brah, when you attack us from behind, you aren't getting a match," Sika said. "You're getting a fight!"

Liking the continued push for The Destroyer here. McGraw is in technicolor? priceless. The Samoans beating up The Irwins and vice-versa should be very entertaining. Blackwell and Bundy? HMMMN! Hope Robley has a attack plan since he continues to fly under the radar.
 
Good stuff.
