Gavok posted:Yeah, even when the locker room was told that the Benoits were dead, nobody wanted to be the one to outright say, "So you realize Chris went nuts and killed them all, right?" Nobody probably wants to think about how they trusted a crazy murderer to not hurt them in the ring, either.

Luigi Thirty posted:And of course that was also the night WWF put butts in seats by putting the title on one of the most beloved guys in wrestling even back then, Mick Foley. As an added layer of stupid, for anyone who didn't watch WWF who might not have known who Mick Foley was, they reminded their fans he was that guy they liked from WCW from a few years ago.

Spikeguy posted:From roughly the mid 90s to he left, it's been said the Undertaker was the godfather in the back, the person everyone who had an issue brought it up with. As other main event guys kinda drifted away from the rest of the roster, it always seemed like he was there in the middle of it with them. Any word on who took that place, if anyone, since he left? It's going to be HHH going forward, he's like their NXT Dad.

Inferno matches have got to be the worst. Since you're surrounded by fire on four sides, and heat rises, you are basically trying to wrestle inside an oven ...which is why the Harris Twins will be booking a ton of them when they own TNA tomorrow

Halloween Jack posted:I didn't get into wrestling until the Attitude Era, and while I knew wrestling was a work, I didn't assume that Vince and Austin and the Undertaker were all buddies who celebrated Christmas together. I wondered if some of the angles were based on real-life drama that the participants were willing to dramatize because they were carnies trying to make a buck, and that certainly heightened the excitement. I always figured that in real-life they were having a great time. They got to do crazy poo poo and make TONS of money.

Aesop Poprock posted:I think Stone Cold has owned up to being a drunk rear end in a top hat who went through "dark times" but I don't think he's ever directly talked about and apologized for being abusive to Debra. Whether you consider that enough is up to you, but I feel like he's gotten away with not having to confront it outright just because of who he is. I feel like him recounting the specifics is not really important and I understand not wanting to discuss parts of that publicly. The way he acts now is what's important.

Pretty Lady Blob posted:Kind of related: what's the best match to not get 5 stars? I've rewatched the 2015 RR triple threat three times now and every time I come away thinking that match was perfect. Two of those times I was watching with someone who wasn't an active wrestling fan and they were completely enthralled by it. HBK/Taker I is basically Exhibit A in the case of Dave knocking a quarter star off a match for not being in Japan.

DangerDummy! posted:Why did the WWE suddenly decide to deify The Ultimate Warrior? He is on record as being a lovely bigot and homophobe, he sucked in the ring, no one who worked with him during his prime seemed to like him very much, and he had a reputation for being an unprofessional prick with no respect for the business. The WWE even made a whole video burying him as a complete joke. I get trying to get a nostalgia pop for him during his HOF induction and everything, but the guy dies and all of the sudden we're meant to be worshipful of all the things he's done for wrestling and the world at large. Just because he's dead doesn't mean he wasn't an rear end in a top hat. Where did the massive shift in perception come from? He died literally the day after Mania and everyone was very sad about it.
