The (Not So) Great American Bash

I can't be the only one who sees the funny side in the fact that three wrestlers involved in three of the biggest angles scheduled for tomorrow night's Great American Bash have been pulled from the road and, in turn, the pay-per-view.

Not only is Mark Henry out following the knee injury he suffered at Saturday Night's Main Event last week -- and which he should have seen coming, with the amount of weight he carries -- but it was announced today that both Bobby Lashley and The Great Khali have been nixed due to liver ailments. (I'm not even going to speculate about certain chemical substances and what they can do to the body, ahem...)

Which basically means that any reason that anyone might have had to pay for the show is gone, and the booking team will basically be winging it -- prepare yourselves, ladies and gents, for the worst show of the year by far!

You know, I might even stay up and watch the whole thing; it's a car crash waiting to happen.

PS: This isn't the first time The Great American Bash has been subject to last-minute card changes; the event has a notorious precendent in this respect.
