I'm trying to keep up with the Live feed of "Over The Limit" over at L-O-P while writing a column. Love how this person wrote about the Eve Torres/Maryse match:
"Eve is able to fight back against Eve"
Wow! I didn't know that Eve can wrestle herself? Saves time having Maryse in the match! I think Eve's talent can be used for "other ventures".
*plays porno music*
OH EVE!
