Th3rd, the company behind the “Summer of Punk” video – a favorite here at Three Man Booth – have created another instant classic with a video history / tribute to Daniel Bryan.
Now all we need is a video of AJ’s best moments – and possibly a teaser clip of Kane – to make the trifecta complete.
Kevin Smith has never been one to shy away from discussing his likes (Movies, Star Wars, Hockey, Comics, Batman, Ben Affleck…), but is it possible that 3MB has discovered that Kevin Smith also likes Wrestling?
Take a look at this photo taken by Entertainment Weekly of Kevin Smith during San Diego Comic Con 2012 weekend alongside a picture of Captain Charisma courtesy of the WWE:
Hey there, Three Man Booth-iverse! For those who have been following my commentary for the past few months, you know I only do them when I’m unable to live tweet. Now that I can live tweet on a regular basis, it’s a little redundant to live tweet RAW then do commentary after. So since RAW is becoming more interactive, so is 3MB! Rather than type everything out again, I’m going to pick out tweets from our Twitter Wall and recap RAW that way. I hope you enjoy this new format. Feedback is more than welcome. Enjoy!
So, That Happened: 07/09/12
RAW Opening Segment:
AJ calls out CM Punk and admits that he turns her on.
RAW should start off with AJ every week. AJ Lee. AJ Styles. Applejack from MLP: FIM. The AJ’s know how to start a show!

AJ proposes to CM Punk, then Daniel Bryan proposes to AJ!
When AJ got down on her knee, I legit thought she was going to Tebow for Denver-Heat. #RAW
— Mark Smith (@podjohnnyringo) July 10, 2012
I Applaud You, CM Punk. I would have said YES! Instantly. She’d Make the Most Adorable Bride.

Poor @WWEDanielBryan …. his mouth says “NO!” but his shirt says “YES!” #WWE
— The Czar of Cool (@Kaibutsu) July 10, 2012
The only way this angle will work is if Triple H comes out and shows a video of AJ and him at a Vegas drive-thru chapel.

Jack Swagger for no good reason.
WWHY Sheamus? Del Rio didn’t feel that, you know who felt that, Swagger and his blonde tips.
— hates rednail polish (@YourBoyDrew) July 10, 2012
Jack Swagger, I heard Ring of Honor has an Opening for a Talented Wrestlers. You should look into it.
— ThreeManBooth (@3ManBooth) July 10, 2012
Jack Swagger got a plate of squash and he’s not even a vegetarian. #RAW

Now Is Not the Time, Brodus Clay! We Need to Smackdown the Vote and Say No! It’s the Lesser of 2 Evils.

Backstage: Chris Jericho tries to plan with Big Show, but Big Show claims some of
his most embarrassing moments were when he was in Jeri-Show.
Actually Big Show, some of your BEST moments were with Jeri-Show. You lost weight. You suited up. You found the color blue. Good times.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
Match 03: John Cena and Kane vs. Big Show and Chris Jericho
Money In The Bank would be more interesting if it featured midcard guys who have no money in their banks. #wwe #raw
— Victoria (@prettyheartless) July 10, 2012
John Cena tells his BFF, Stu the Cameraman, nothing. Instead, he says Happy Birthday to Tony from WWE Smackdown vs. RAW 2009.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
In his mind it is. RT @Miss_Dani_Baby: This is not the first MITB, John.
— Dr. Dirk Lay (@WellYoureWrong) July 10, 2012
I’ve never been happier to see Kane. …That’s not true. August 26th, 2002. When he did the Kane-a-rooni. But this is a close second.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
You serious bro? No Jerishow music or entrance?!
— Not Regal (@RegalSays) July 10, 2012

The Only Thing Everyone In This Match Has in Common Is That They’ve Beaten Kane. EVEN Kane!
— ThreeManBooth (@3ManBooth) July 10, 2012
@KeepItFiveStar Supposedly a mute; ends up talking anyway. #Kanetradictions
— Marco Yolo (@RHEmarkable) July 10, 2012
Christian’s spear is a tribute to Edge. Big Show’s spear is just his terrible Free Willy impression.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
Careful, Jericho. Big Show might think your lights on your jacket are candy buttons and start eating it.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
Winners: John Cena and Kane (via DQ, somehow)
Post-Match, Big Show attacks Chris Jericho, Kane and John Cena with ladders. John Cena fights back and takes Big Show out with a ladder.
Oh I see…this whole remember guys? Show is dominant? Did you forget? He’s strong!
— Max Hunter (@KickStunner) July 10, 2012
John Cena takes out the Big Show with a ladder then slams one ladder onto the other ladder. Inanimate Object Abuse is cruel. #BeAStar
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
Backstage: The Handsome Eve Torres tries to make CM Punk feel bad for playing
second fiddle to The Rock, John Cena and Brock Lesnar.

Bob Backlund Is Besting All Of Us in the Aging Gracefully Department. #RAW
— ThreeManBooth (@3ManBooth) July 10, 2012
Hope Slater knows his boots are not allowed under The Backlund Rules.
— Saticoy Steel (@TimExiled) July 10, 2012
If you’re a pro wrestler and 2012 Bob Backlund is in better shape than you, please reconsider your choices.
— Victoria (@prettyheartless) July 10, 2012
Winner: Bob Backlund
Bob Backlund is like the Anti Ric Flair. Flair Acts Young; Backlund Looks Young.

Man, Bob Backlund is in better shape than me. I just slather chicken wings across my face.

Match 05: Jerry Lawler vs. Michael Cole
This proves it. Children shouldn’t vote. And the IWC makes a SMALL percent of the WWE Universe.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
There’s a special place in hell, well not hell but a room filled with farts from bad curry, for all those who voted Yes. #RAW
— hates rednail polish (@YourBoyDrew) July 10, 2012
Did You Know? Michael Cole has wrestled more times on RAW this year than Drew McIntyre, JTG AND Michael McGuillicutty.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
Post-Match, The Anonymous RAW GM is revealed….
WWE, you really need to stop ending all of your big angles with the surprise being Hornswoggle.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
I was Hoping They Were Going to Find Mike Adamle Hiding Under the Ring.
— ThreeManBooth (@3ManBooth) July 10, 2012
You Know, Lawler, Hornswoggle’s an Adult. Legally, You Can Beat the Shit Out of Him.
— ThreeManBooth (@3ManBooth) July 10, 2012
Who’s Mr. McMahon’s son? Hornswoggle. Anonymous RAW GM? Hornswoggle.Cameraman that blinded Hogan? Hornswoggle! Higher Power? Spoiler Alert!
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
Welp. @TimExiled was right. Sadly it was hornswoggle. And this might be the worst RAW of the month.
— hates rednail polish (@YourBoyDrew) July 10, 2012

Bracing for the #russoswerve
— Bill S. Preston, Esq (@Miss_Dani_Baby) July 10, 2012
CM Punk admits he doesn’t want to marry AJ. AJ slaps Punk then Daniel Bryan then
leaves chanting “YES!”
SLAP IT UP! bajdbcjuabsncboCUC. SLAP IT UP! vcavcavbcjkabuc. SLAP IT UP! bcaubcvuoabvckujd” – AJ’s New Theme.
— hates rednail polish (@YourBoyDrew) July 10, 2012
AJ’s leaving with herself. She’s got the whole “Me, Myself and I” thing going for her. Good thing she listened to Beyonce at the gym today.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
Yo, man. Last monday, you Punk/Bryan got put through tables, today they’re gettin’ slapped. The power of the P-U-S-S-Y…
— hates rednail polish (@YourBoyDrew) July 10, 2012
AJ opens and closes RAW, is this real life?
— Nessa Francis (@nessquik_) July 10, 2012
So….That Happened:
I think some Freaky Friday shit happened between #RAW and #Impact.
— Mark Smith (@podjohnnyringo) July 10, 2012
I feel like with Austin Aries winning and the Sara Del Rey and PAC news (Allegedly), WWE felt like we all needed to be taken down a peg.
— Langdon Alger (@KeepItFiveStar) July 10, 2012
How was Raw guys?

The Amazing Spider-Man was the number one movie this weekend, already making $140 million in six days. While this reboot does not devote a lot of time on Spidey’s wrestling connection like the 2001 Spider-Man film does, it does touch on it slightly. However, for further information, please check out Spider-Man’s Tangled Web #14.

The Tangled Web series focuses on the villains in the Spider-Man universe. #14 does not focus on a villain exactly but it is centered around Crusher Hogan (Bonesaw McGraw in the film version), the wrestler Spider-Man faced on that one fateful night. There’s an additional wrestling connection with this issue. It was co written by Scott Levy AKA Raven AKA Johnny Polo AKA He doesn’t want you to remember he’s Johnny Polo!
If you can’t find the single issue. it’s also available in the paperback trade, Spider-Man’s Tangled Web Volume 3. It’s definitely worth checking out!
