Kevin, you may be the best in the world at what you do. You'll be my hero if you put Schmuck in the walls of Jericho.

OK this is funny. +1 ticket sold

Well it wasn't Flair or the Rock but good anyway. I'm sure you'll give him a little sweet chin music for all of us. ;)

Way to go Eckster...Beat the schmuck out of him !

Kevin - Any truth to the rumor that the winner of your match becomes Hornswoggle's protege on Season 3 of NXT?

We need a special guest referee for this match!! Foley? Van Hammer? Awesome KONG!

Your desk is filthy

RESPONSE FROM KE: That's actually not my real desk.

little naitch is back. I hope that's a special cut for this match and not everyday colour!!!

Peter Schmuck's promo is far better than yours.

I hope you wrestle better than you talk. Come to think of it I hope you wrestle better than you write.

Great wrestling blog Kevin..i try to read it as much as possible to get your perspective on the wrestling industry and its characters....Anyway i will be checking back later for the results of the verbal battle between you and the other guy.....i really think that since Schmuch is playing the heel character,i think you should watch out for the low blows and the rack against the eyes.....Keep up the good work and you are very entertaining and very knowledgeable when it comes to the wrestling business...Remember you will have haters amongst you even in the workplace.....

Liked your promo.
Did not care that I was first subjected to BP's propaganda, which included no video of the horrible damage they have caused to our shorelines, nor an apology for causing it.

Good promo, Kevin. Just remember to get a new sign -- you're not a referee anymore. Remember to do splits so you're ready for that moment when you have to hit Sweet Chin Music.

Whatcha gonna do brother when ECK-a-Mania runs wild on you?!?! Wish i lived in Maryland so i could see this. Schmuck is a natural heel and his promo showed...you need to work on yours or Michael Cole will make fun of you. Good luck Kevin...show him how "fake" a knife-edge chop is.

Are you two kidding us? How are you going to settle scores inside a ring in a scripted event (I'm guessing this match is also scripted pro-wrestling)??? Or is everything else scripted and you two just beat the hell out of each other in *real* mode when only you guys are in the ring? Lol.

Moreover instead of taking shots on TNA /Russo for their non-logic and weak stories, would you bother telling us what logic lies in here with you blog wars storyline? LMAO

#1 A real life blog war settled in a scripted environment. And even funnier nonsensical #2 Schmuck ran his mouth at pro-wrestling. Wouldn't his partners (Fed-up even if heel) be irate and p*ssed at Schmuck as well? So are the 5 of you going to team up against Schmuck and beat him to pulp? Fed-up turning on Schmuck? Well if pro-wrestlers who's profession was made fun of by Schmuck don't turn on Schmuck, this is BS this whole thing to run site traffic and sell more tickets for event.

I am a pro-wrestling fan here. But even I can only laugh at how you two are fooling the entire audience just for your own selfish publicity. There is no logic at all with a real life fight entering a scripted environment and Schmuck teaming up with people he made fun of in the first place.

Ah, we've finally located Rodney from the Mean Street Posse.

Hit em' with some sweet "shin" music.

Watched Schmuck's video. Watched your video. And I have 1 observation. Holy smokes! Look @ the computer monitor in the background!!! Does that thing get the internet?! Does that thing even have a color display?! Man, the newspaper business really is in shambles.

Eck could pass for Ken Andersons brother.

I can hear it now,
"Misssssssssssssssster Eck.......


ECK."


Schmuck deserves a "It doesnt matter what your blog says!!!"

The 30 second BP advertisement that airs before the promo really adds to the ambiance.

Viper should create a pro wrestling character called The Wet Blanket.

You look like Bob Holly, hope that means you're gonna work stiff against that jabroni!

Awesome promo, wish I could make it.

Well, the wet blanket's logic about how the match must end is hard to argue with.

Why would any wrestler team with the Schmuskster, a loudmouth heel who just trashed ALL of pro wrestling?

Answer: So they can turn on him and hit their finishers in sequence just when you least expect it.

Or it could all be a swerve.

Damn, wrestling is complicated!

KEvin, will Mickie JAmes be in your corner? That might be too distracting for you!

@elevation

Not taking the fun out of this bro. But I guess Vince Russo is getting into Baltimore Sun and I just can't believe how many people are taking this for real asking Eck to superkick Schmuck. If this was real enough, a "Schmuck you" would've been a more than enough fitting reply. Not a logic-less solution in a scripted ring atmosphere with Schmuck partnered by two people who were made light of by him in the first place.

BP payed to get the oil out of kevins hair..thats why all the color is gone..

I got two words for ya...

Schmuck it!

kevin: any chance you can add another match, to the card.

have a handicap match pitting all the masn employees vs anita marks!

Dude, you have got mic skills to rival those of WWE'S NEXT BREAKOUT STAR, ELI COTTONWOOD!!!

Nah, seriously, that was a good promo.

"Did not care that I was first subjected to BP's propaganda, which included no video of the horrible damage they have caused to our shorelines, nor an apology for causing it."

Yeah, me neither.

Blonde hair? Uh oh...that's a surefire sign of a heel turn!

(Actually, didn't most of 'em dye their hair blonde AFTER the heel turn?)

Brilliant! Very fun, Kevin!

Funny stuff. Do you think Schmuck will post it the night before that he's going to lose?

Looking at that hair, it reminds me of something when I did a little fill-in writing back in the day for DDT Digest. When Rey Mysterio was going through that no-mask angle and was part of the Filthy Animals, we dubbed him:

Frosted Mini-G.

Or: http://media.photobucket.com/image/rey%20mysterio%20unmasked/masterragu/new/08.jpg

Hope you guys have a good time with this.

Does the losing team captain have to stop writing blogs? I doubt anyone would miss what-his-name's (well, "anyone with positive contributions to society").

Is Viper saying that getting people emotionally involved in a storyline to sell more tickets for a wrestling event is bull$#!+?

That defies all business logic!

Anything to bolster the indys. I hope both of you have fun with it. Looking forward to the next set of promos.

WIth writers like Kevin & Peter, it is the reason why I read the USA TODAY.. A quality newspaper!

RESPONSE FROM KE: Yet you still visited baltimoresun.com. today.

Look at that awesome poster in the background! Gotta love it. :) Go Rated Eck!

I knew it. This whole thing has been entertaining that I would've bought a ticket if i was there. Don't forget to post some videos.

Btw, why were you always looking to your left? Were you reading a cue card or something?

RESPONSE FROM KE: Just a habit I suppose. No cue card -- although perhaps it would have been smoother if I had used one!

kevin are you going to upload a video of your match with this guy to youtube or something?

RESPONSE FROM KE: We'll have video here.

Hey Kevin...this is Phils friend Matt. Umm...this Schmuck has no chance. The last time you and I got into it over politics, we went at it all night and you left me with some head trauma and I have to respect that. Anyway, this guy doesn't know what he got himself into. ECK RULES!!!
