The Brian Kendrick 436 JTG 292
Randy Orton 494 Natalya Neidhart 451
Manu 136 Katie Burchill 262
1537 1352
wiggs' sandbagging keepers result in the largest leap up the draft board, snagging a coveted 3rd position in the first round (assuming he even owns his own pick! lol), while Bobo gets the shaft, dropping from what could have been a 3rd overall pick to 5th.

Mean Gene: I'm here with the Macho Man Randy Savage for another exciting RWF season preview. Here he comes, the Macho Man himself.

Macho Man:
I'm here, YEAH! I'm looking right at you in the video scope. I'm staaaaring right at ya. ARE YOU READY??? I thought you were!

Why don't we do this, because i'm teeelliing you this is how we DO IT! We'll review the teeeaaams in the order that the finished in Season 11. DIG IT!

First up, the champ, the fouuuuuur time RWF champion Species. Guess what! He's gonna take a fall, YEAH, he's gonna take a hurtin! He's gonna go to the top rope, and jump off ... but NOBODY WILL BE HOME! Species will feel good with Batista and Kaaaaane standing behind him but it's not gonna be enough! His 5th and 6th regular scorers are gonna be a swinging gate! Not to fear, not to fear ... no no no, I call this guy the KING OF WAIVERS! YEAH! He'll pick some nice oranges from the Florida orange tree. You know what i'm telling you Mean Gene? UH HUH !

Next in the video scope is Team Zyre! What does that meeaaaan anyway, the name "Zyre" ... sounds like some kinds Spaceman YEAH!

Mean Gene: The spaceman Zyre??

Macho Man:
THATS RIGHT! ALL HAIL SPACEMAN ZYRE! The brightest star of all the shining stars! This team has a bunch of guys that can easily take up TV time. Always a threat! Like that Jake the Snake and his Damien ... you turn around, and he'll bite ya!! UH HUH!! People just want to see Santino and MVP ... they gravitate towards them, like a spaceman beam ray. It just looocks you right up! YEAH! He needs the dead man big time if he wants to do anything this season though. Rise, rise from the grave deadman. The spaceman calls on you!

Ok lets move on, Mean Gene, and i'm talking about the Farm team. Team Farm, YEAH!

Mean Gene: I believe that's Farn.

Macho Man:
Don't interrupt me, Mean Gene, I'm on a roll! UH HUH! This teeeeaaam won't be talked about too soon in next year's review ... you know why? Cause he's gonna sink right to the bottom! You gotta love his keepers, his carryover, from last season but after that ... I CAN'T EVEN LOOK, MEAN GENE! It's an uggggly situation. YEAH! Nooow I liked dreamer last season, but last season was last season! The 1992 Royal Rumble was in 1992! It doesn't apply anymore, Mean Gene. Just like the way that Great One dresses, you gotta move forward ... quit living in the past UH HUH ! You get to the cross section and you keep walking straight, you dont' go left or right Mean Gene ... you'll get left behind, YEAH!

Enough about that, enough about that. Team Mike D, you're in the video scope. I'm looking right at ya. I see that your shaking again, for the 8th season in a row! The old knee knockers! I tell ya what though this is going to be a formidable season 12 team, yeah you see this is like taking on the natural disasters in a handicap match. He throws lots of weight at ya but if you last long enough he's got to stop early because he's out of breath. DIG IT! Lots of potential high scorers on the cusp of greatness under Mike D. Can Miz score 1000, can Jericho score 1200, can Cody Rhodes and R Truuuuth get into the 800's? You see Mean Gene, this is the kinda production Mike D is gonna need and I just don't think he's gonna get it! You can't get blood from a turnip and you can't get ham from a hamburger. YEAH!!

Next up we have the Rude one, UH HUH! He's so rude he started making waiver moves in the RWF before he was even accepted as general manager. YEAH! He's making his move, Mean Gene, he's making his move. Here it is, he's been buying stock the last few seasons and now its TIME TO SELL! This is the cream of the crop! It rises to the top ... cream rises to the top, yeah. ADD A LITTLE SUGAR ... add a little sugar, Mean Gene and what you make is a RWF title. Let's get serious though! Whaaat he neeeeeds, yeah, what he needs is for that Cena to get back into action and then he's a lock! If that doesn't happen he's gonna find himself tangled up in Tree's branches ... if ya get my drift, UH HUH!

I'm looking in the video scope now and I see the FUTURE, YEAH! Team Wiggs has all the youuuung bad asses that trying to find their way in this business. Dibiase Jr, Jack Swagger, Kofi Kingston, Primo Colon ... IT DOESN'T STOP MEAN GENE! It just does not stop, reminds me of the Bushwackers dancing! You couldn't get them to stop either! If these guys on Wiggs team trip some of the old guys or push them down the stairs, watch out! It's their show now! YA FEEL ME???

Here's the next biggest thing in the RWF. He's coming back for a 2nd RWF title, YEAH! This team is the one to watch out for. I'm not suuuure what's going on with the team name, Yellow Carrots... WTF is right, Mean Gene... but it DOESN'T MATTER, UH HUH! Cause what i'm saying to you, iiisssss... HBK, Randy Orton, A russian on Smackdown with a huge push coming ... That's Kozlov, Mean Gene, KEEP UP! THE Brian Kendrick and a young Samoan named Manny! YEAH! Lots, lots lots of points on this team, you gotta keep them down, ya see ... yeah, you gotta put the covering over this team, and stand on them... don't budge, Mean Gene, don't budge. This team is coming up YEAH!

Allright just a feeeew more teams to talk about, Team Bobo! You're up! Investing in that Cryme Tyme huh? Yeah you think that's a good move but they don't call them Cryme Tyme for nothing ... they are gonna steal all your investment, UH HUH! You'll be left with nothing but a Dyk, and i'm not talking about Nattie, YEAH and a big Indian who doesn't know what the hell you're saying! You seeeeee Bobo it's a good thing you picked up Festus, cause you still got a lot of moving to do, YEAH!

Allright the "Great One" ... I say that lightly, Mean Gene. I pegged it, I tell ya I peggggged IT last year when I told ya to refer to him as the mediocre one. DIG IT! You can expect much of the same, Mean Gene, much of the same. He has some improvements with the ECW Champ Matt Hardy and John Morrison... but Mean Gene, Umaga needs to be a big scorer for the "Great One" ... the prooooblem iissssss, are people gonna be tired of that same yelling and screaming and incoherent Samoan babble? YEAH I THINK SO! Umaga has no flexibility, Mean Gene, He's no Mrs Mean Gene if you know what i'm saying to you, UH HUH!
Evan Bourne! Great kid ... lotsssss of points, yeah... came out of nowhere like a storm in the night. The name of the game though, Mean Gene, is 6. That's RIGHT, 6 to score, 6 to win! Great One's got 4. The numbers don't adddd up. You gotta add up in this league. 1,2 ... 6 MEAN GENE! YEAH!

Last but not least, Goatlocker. Yeeaaah, good ol' Team Goatlocker. A FLICKERING LIGHT IN THE BASEMENT ... Look for CM Punk to start to carry this sad franchise out of that basement, Mean Gene. Right on his back and shoulders, all the other guys ... Chavo, Shelton... good scorers they can walk some of the steps, uh huh. What about Candice, Bam and Curt Hawkins? Carrying material, Mean Gene, carrying material. Like I told ya before, it's a nummmmmbers game, YEAH!

Let's get onnnn with it then...

Here's my final standings and preeeedictions for Seasonnnn 12, YEAH!

1. Rude 4800
2. Tree 4700
3. Mike D 4300
4. Zyre 4200
5. Species 4000
6. Wiggs 3800

Smackdown spoilers indicate a McCool title defense at Cyber Sunday.

I am offering her up for a VERY modest pick swap in Season 14. My 2nd (which is likely to be very high) + McCool for your 1st --- which if you are in contention is likely to be low. It's low risk! Hurry!
