-ETR member, Rick Boy will do a review on the "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian" movie later, for he's going to see it now.
-Also, I will do a Smackdown live blog tonight. Just so you know, there will be an Edge vs. Rey Mysterio match tonight on the show. The last time they wrestled, Edge put out Mysterio for almost a whole year! We'll just have to see how it turns out tonight.

Jim Ross on The PPV This Sunday
This is what Jim Ross said on his site:
It looks as if SD will be in a position to kick Raw's a*s again this Sunday at "Extreme Rules." In my biased opinion, no match on the card is more eagerly anticipated than the Ladder Match for the World Title with Edge defending against Jeff Hardy. To think that I inked both these men to WWE contracts over a decade ago is a testament to how time flies. I assure you that both men will take ridiculous risks Sunday and I will be shocked if the use of the ladders as weapons doesn't bust someone open.
Chris Jericho challenging Rey Mysterio for the IC Title and essentially saying that Jericho will unmask the uber talented luchadore might be another show show stealer. Does Raw have a match that will deliver better than these two aforementioned SD bouts? No Holds Barred should favor the challenger from where I sit.
Umaga vs. C.M. Punk feels like it is an issue that just got started a few days ago but my senses is that these two will make the most out of a very difficult type of match. Getting lashed with a leather strap is a daunting task. Tough way to make a living. My brief experience in a "Country Whipping" match, and I wore as many clothes as possible, is proof enough to me that getting hit with a piece of leather isn't fun. For the record, that Country Whipping match versus The Coach back in the day in Chicago on Raw may have set wrestling back a decade and that's being kind. Put it did get a huge TV rating, sold out the arena, provided seconds of unique entertainment, blah, blah, blah.
Extreme Rules looks like it's going to be perfect, as Backlash was. I liked J.R's preview for the pay-per-view too. I never knew J.R was in a "Country Whipping" Match. Anyway, TNA Impact tonight. Be sure to tune in.

Rick Boy Video Game Reviews: Nicktoons, Globs of Doom
Nickelodeon comes out with another game huh? In this game you can play as Spongebob, Zim, Tak, Jimmy Neutron, and their enemies! The point of this game is to team up with the show stars enemies and conquer a force that no one person could defeat: Orange Globs. Yes, monsters made of orange goo. The only minus is that the autosave feature doesn't work at all. It deletes all of your progress after you work hard.
Grade: C+
It got an "eh" grade because the save thing is bad. It's fun until you quit and find your work was deleted.

Rick Boy Video Game Reviews: Pikmin
Nintendo recently came out with a new game called Pikmin. So, I'm going to review it in my first ever video game review!
Well, the game is basically about surviving 30 days on an unknown planet. You also have to find parts of your crashed ship on different parts of the planet. And I left out the best part: you have to raise small plant like creatures that you call "Pikmin." The guide book is very helpful too. Although, there is a changing cover, where you can flip it around or something. Weird.
Grade: B+
Pretty good game. Love the graphics too. Travel on an adventure with Captain Olimar with "Pikmin" today!

WWE Magazine Interviews Christian
In the latest edition of WWE Magazine interviewed superstar Christian. Here are a few things I found interesting:
Q: Edge told us that he plans to cut his hair off before he turns 40. What drove you to clip your trademark locks after Judgement Day 2003?
Christian: I felt it was time. Everybody associated me with that long hair, and the Intercontinental Championship was making it's return after it had been gone for about a year. I won the title that night and everything was changing. It was a chance to reinvent myself and get rid of those split ends once and for all. I actually kept that hair in a bag for a while. But then it just looked tattered and started fraying, so I threw it out.
Q: During your entrance, when you raise your hand above your brow and scope the crowd, what are you looking for?
Christian: I'm usually looking for the peeps. And there's always some cool signs to be seen. I'm trying to give everyone a shout out, but it's hard because there's so many people. But when I catch one of the peeps, I give a point.

RAW Results
-Batista def. Cody Rhodes in Steel cage
-Maryse and Beth Phoenix def. Kelly Kelly and Mickie James
-Carlito and Primo def. Matt Hardy and Regal
-John Cena and Chavo Gurerro def. Miz and Big Show
-Kofi Kingston def. MVP to become U.S champ (Congrats Kofi)
-Santino vs. Vickie Gurerro ends in no contest
-Randy Orton def. Ric Flair in parking lot brawl
Chester's Comments:
Again, congratulations to Kofi Kingston for his win. Anyhow, Flair did a great job last night, but was punted by The Legend Killer. However, I think that was the last time we'll see Ric wrestle for a long time. He might not even actually wrestle again.
Last but not least, HHH is a no show! This surprised me. Every five seconds I'm like, "Here comes Hunter!" Hes gonna show up at some point, but for now I guess he's taking a break.
