Hell No is the reason we're talking about Bryan theoretically meriting a Mania main event.

And why I have a positive view of Kane. I used to not be able to stand him, now, dude's okay.

Wade Barrett has had a less than sterling career but being eliminated by Bo loving Dallas might be its lowest point

According to speedtest.net ping is 50ms, download speed is 2.30 Mbps and upload is 0.65 bps per second.

I'm gonna be honest, I have no idea what kind of quality these numbers suggest nor do I know if they can be improved in any way by anything I can do.

For comparison, the speedtest I just did has me at 25ms ping, 19.43mbps/16.09mbps and I sometimes get a drop when I start a stream. It usually levels out to get back up to HD though.

It seemed like they were going to give Dallas a big push, then everyone realized wrestlers have to be able to talk and that stopped.

I just remember Bo eliminating Wade and it being kinda cool, then the Raw after we saw a Bo promo and it was awful, and we never heard from him again.

He pinned Wade in a match after that and then they had another match and Wade destroyed him and he was never seen again

It is funny how Royal Rumble 2013 and 2014 could have been used to get over a new star, but instead went to two older stars that have won the Rumble in the past.

Forgot that Punk vs. Rock main evented the Rumble PPV in 2013.

Kalisto (Samuray Del Sol) and Solomon Crowe (Sami Callihan) were fun indy guys but they haven't debuted in NXT yet.

By debuted, I mean they haven't appeared on the show. Both have been in developmental 7-8 months now.

It's funny that for two years in a row the crowd *really* wanted Jericho to win, but one year they were going Cena or bust, and the other...hell if I know, Vince hates the audience.

Cole screaming "ITS THE SHIELD THE SHIELD CHIODA ITS THE SHIELD THE SHIELD COME ON THE SHIELD THE SHIELD THE SHIELD!!!!" This ending was so bad and they only just did that lights go out and Shield attacks thing that Raw.

edit: forgot he won with the People's Elbow too which I never felt was a real finisher and more like the Five Knuckle Shuffle. Imagine if Cena finished dudes off with that poo poo.

I honestly think you can get much further with bad wrestling skills than you can with bad promo ability. Just look at the Ultimate Warrior.
