Onmi posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMUCQQ-ryQ8&t=81s So do you think this promo was also written by McMahon? Or someone else? That HAD To be someone else, maybe even Cena himself, just because he called McMahon Yoda and I could just imagine Vince hearing that and being like "I'M NOT SMALL ARHGHAGAHGHGHGHGHGH" ...this would be a perfect opportunity to post vinceflex.jpg but since some people had to ruin everyone else's fun... thanks assholes.

Maybe instead they can go with Booker's other brother, Big. Edit: From googling to confirm that he's actually alive, apparently Google and Wikipedia disagree on how old he is.

Oh, you didn't know?  EDIT: pshhahahaha you already mentioned NAO in your post, I dunno why I misread that. Also: Everblight posted:Wait, really? Scotty 2 Hotty was one of my favorite guys in the Attitude Era (shut up, I was weird) and last I heard he was working at an insurance company. Was this just a one-off or is he back on the indies? A. It was a two-off for Old School Raw and one other thing, I don't remember what the other thing was but I remember him showing up twice. (Double edit: it was NXT, dude just said that, goddamn I'm just not awake today.) B. He's a fireman, dude. Skunkrocker fucked around with this message at 18:06 on Jan 16, 2015 |

I was pretty impressed at Booker after I watched Raw which is weird because I thought he was pretty bad during his time on Smackdown. He's no JR but he always puts over meaningless matches in a 'could make them a candidate for X championship' sort of way which is soo much better than JBL and Cole arguing over some petty poo poo. On the other hand, JBL was also pretty decent when he first started so I'm not sure if he won't go down the same road.

WWE Announcing is basically so incompetent that, yes, someone actually calling action and trying to get something over is a great feat.

I've been watching the UK WWE Network (feels good man) and holy lol The Rock was calling him Big Slow in 1998. Also Ryder and Cesaro are super likable on Countdown. WWE becoming tightly scripted is the worst thing to ever happen to it (even moreso than Cena in m opinion). Love that story Jake the Snake told of someone bringing him a script before a taping. He laughed and threw it away immediately.

I'm pretty sure Scotty 2 Hotty wrestled a singles match on NXT at some point a while back, too, but that was a much longer time ago.

In regards to Main Event not being available on WWE Network is it possible that WWE would switch the roles of Main Event and Superstars giving Superstars content relevant to the main shows and putting the undercard matches with no storyline implications on Main Event?

So is it bad that I wish Sin Cara would win the Royal Rumble, and then unmask to be Dolph Ziggler? Sadly, never happen (booking, different builds and, oh yeah, tattoos), but it’s been over seven years. It’s high time to rerun the Dean Malenko/Cicople angle!

X-Factor was my absolute favorite thing while it was happening. I have no idea why. They certainly didn't really do anything super cool, but for whatever reason they were it for me.
