LIVE TWEETING THE 2014 WWE SLAMMY AWARDS
The pomp and splendor of WWE's annual awards ceremony, the Slammy Awards, never fails to entertain and/or confound. Hangin' and bangin' for almost four hours combined with the RAW Pre-Show on WWE Network and Monday Night RAW live on the USA Network, here's my live tweet of last night's pageantry:
#RAW Pre-Show @WWENetwork kicks off with the first #Slammys awarded. The 37th Slammys were in 1987; this is the 64th Annual Slammy Awards.

#TellMeYouDidntJustSayThat #Slammy. I voted @BellaTwins: "I wish you died in the womb!" I'd say it to my twin, but I killed him in the womb.

Congrats to @RusevBUL @LanaWWE for winning their first #Slammy! @TheRock helped. But let's all thank the great leader Vladimir Putin.

#TagTeamoftheYear, a #Slammy so prestigious, so coveted, it's being awarded at 7:43 on the #RAW Pre-Show. I voted @mikethemiz and #Mizdow.

It's only the #RAW Pre-Show and @WWERollins has already won 2 Slammys. Seth Rollins is Mr. #Slammy in the Bank.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#WWE Universe, Uso stupid. #TagTeamofTheYear #Slammy @mikethemiz and @TheDamienSandow would concur.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#BreakoutStaroftheYear #Slammy: I voted for the undefeated super athlete and hero of the Russian Federation @RusevBUL @LanaWWE. #SHUTTUP
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
Dean Ambrose won #BreakoutStaroftheYear #Slammy? It's all just a popularity contest! Congrats @TheDeanAmbrose. We all like you.

If @RealHughJackman won a #Slammy (deserved), then @TheDamianSandow as MAGNETO deserves one too! Or use his magnetic powers to take Hugh's.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#HashtagoftheYear #Slammy winner is #RKOOuttaNowhere? That hashtag is just a fad. It's not even worth #NineNinetyNine.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
Enjoy the #SLAMMY Awards tonight...I always did. #BestHair #Raw

#ThisIsAwesome Moment of the Year #Slammy is a really tough call. I voted for @Sting because it might mean @TripleH @StephMcMahon may accept

#ThisIsAwesome Moment of the Year #Slammy goes to @Sting! Who can't be at #RAW. thus there will be no awesome moment tonight! Of course not.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
Did I ever win a #Slammy?
— Jim Ross (@JRsBBQ) December 9, 2014
Actually happy to see #BigJohnny. Finally some charisma and electricity on this show. #Slammy #RAW #PeoplePower
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#SurpriseReturn oftheYear #Slammy technically should go to @TheRock. It was the only one unadvertised and thus an actual surprise.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
The late @UltimateWarrior won for #SurpriseReturn of the Year #Slammy. Not a surprise, and neither was his return. RIP.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
Time for some FLAIR on #RAW!! @WWENXT #WomensChampion @MsCharlotteWWE is LIVE on @USA_Network! pic.twitter.com/wyv7bSwymM
— WWE (@WWE) December 9, 2014
In 2012, @RicFlairNatrBoy made his @WWE return at the #Slammy Awards. It's only fitting his daughter @MsCharlotteWWE debuts on the Slammys.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
I think the last time Ashley Flair @MsCharlotteWWE was on #RAW she was in tears as @EdgeRatedR blooded her dad in a TLC match. #Slammy
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
What happens when a guy retires but never seems to leave? Welcome back again Santino Marella to present #OMG #Slammy. @milanmiracle
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#OMGShockingMoment of the Year #Slammy can only go to @BrockLesnar ending the Streak. Runner up OMG: @WWEMarkCalaway is on Twitter!
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
Thus Sunday at #WWETLC: @WWEBrayWyatt v. @TheDeanAmbrose in a Tables, Ladders and Rocking Chairs match, sponsored by @CrackerBarrel.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#DivaoftheYear #Slammy. @WWEAJLee 3 time champ, beat whole roster at WM. @RealPaigeWWE 2x champ. Nikki 1x champ. Brie got Nikki coffee.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#DivaOfTheYear #Slammy: @WWEAJLee!! The only right choice. The gross injustice of not winning the 2013 Slammy has been righted. Congrats!
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
Your 2014 #DivaOfTheYear is ..... @WWEAJLee!!
#Slammy #RAW pic.twitter.com/yv8qScWUxU
— WWE (@WWE) December 9, 2014
And @WWEAJLee is the only Diva you'd want to win the #DivaoftheYear #Slammy because she's the only Diva you'd trust to cut a live promo.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
I'm like Leo at the oscars right now. Thanks for the shoutout anyways @WWEAJLee 😘 pic.twitter.com/LEsw93gHzO

#LOLMoment of the Year #Slammy: @WWEAdamRose muttering into the microphone is better than all three of the #RAW announcers put together.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#LOLMoment of the Year #Slammy: @TheDamienSandow! Congrats. I wish you had an angry #Mizdow Girl like @mikethemiz did when he won his Slammy
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
"I'm having a great time." - @SethGreen is a fantastic actor. #RAWTonight

#MatchoftheYear #Slammy: Note that @DaveBautista is a nominee in two Match of the Year candidates. Oh, and he's a real movie star too.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
My #MatchoftheYear #Slammy vote goes to @TheShieldWWE vs. #Evolution @TripleH @DaveBautista @RandyOrton. Most violent, intense brawl of 2014
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
Won't argue with #MatchoftheYear #Slammy winner. The #SurvivorSeries match was terrific. Congrats @HEELZiggler @JohnCena. Pure entertainment

#WinkoftheYear goes to @BrockLesnar winking at the camera. #EatSleepConquerJohnCena #Slammy
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
Suppose WWE World Champion @BrockLesnar won't collect his #OMGMoment #Slammy until January when he's next contractually obligated to return.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#ExtremeMoment of the Year #Slammy: @IamJericho! I hope this makes it into his fourth bestselling memoir. Congrats, Y2J!
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
Finally. #SuperstarOfTheYear #Slammy and presented by King @BookerT5x! Has Booker ever won a #TellMeYouDidntSayThat Slammy?
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
I voted @BrockLesnar #SuperstarOfTheYear #Slammy. He ended The Streak, he's @WWE World Champion, and he's never on #RAW so he never bores me
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
#SuperstarOfTheYear #Slammy: @WWERomanReigns. For what exactly? Maybe we'll find out next year.
— John Orquiola (@BackoftheHead) December 9, 2014
That's the end of the #Slammy Awards for me. I wouldn't buy a #Slammy from @WWEShop http://t.co/o1XLBEA9AP I might win one someday.
