Canadian Pride

This goes into the category of little things that I appreciate, but I really liked how on this past week's episode of Smackdown -- which was filmed in Ontario -- native Canadian Superstar Edge was wearing a special Maple Leaf version of his latest t-shirt.

Nicely done, Edge-ster. And extra credit points for keeping the sunglasses on for nearly the entirety of the segment.

While on the subject of the blue show, I thought it was really stupid that they stripped Undertaker of the World Championship, especially since in all likelihood the title will end up around his waist again anyway. The whole "Championship Chase" idea was neat, but it just as easily could have been done to determine the new #1 Contender for the Undertaker's title. As many people have already noted, since the World Heavyweight Title was moved to Smackdown, it has already been vacated twice due to injury, which has arguably diminished its prestige. Why needlessly add another vacancy?
