Despite All His Rage, Billy Corgan’s Still Just a Rat in a Steel-Cage Match

Despite All His Rage, Billy Corgan’s Still Just a Rat in a Steel-Cage Match

It's fair to say that, over the course of the last couple of years, Billy Corgan has gotten on our last nerve. Whether he's blaming the Cubs' collapse on Eddie Vedder, alienating his last friend from the glory days of the Smashing Pumpkins, or breaking his long-standing promise to never sell out, we've just about had it up to here with his antics. However, because we're gluttons for punishment and hopeful that he'll do something to reclaim his former glory, we can't help but continue to follow his travails. The latest twist in Corgan's bizarre career path involves him cutting a promo for the Total Nonstop Action Wrestling association (or TNA for short), one in which he delivers a spoken-word version of "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" as a means of hyping this weekend's Lockdown pay-per-view event. As you might expect, steel cages are involved. This has to be seen to be believed.
