The worst ending for a win streak is CM Punk vs Hardcore Holly.

Timby posted:DDP is 54 years old and I guarantee you a huge percentage of the audience watching today has no clue who the hell he is. He's not a Ric Flair, who was around in the business for decades before his retirement angle (which was built so well that even young fans who came in with the Cena era gave a poo poo about it). DDP and Undertaker at WrestleMania 27 would go over about as well as a wet fart in church. This but with Sting and Undertaker at WM.

savinhill posted:Yeah, Sting wasn't even in WWE the short time DDP was. Piper and Lawler also get like a match once a year every year, so it's not like they are complete nobodies when WWE brings them back out. They reuse the same 'legends' a lot and it leads to that credibility without witnessing that the young crowd gives them. Sting and DDP haven't had the same past 10 years of people saying how great they are.

John Cena is the best at selling the story of his matches as long as you realize that the story is usually that he is made of steel.

Why did Hulk Hogan leave WWF in 93? I tried reading Hogan's wikipedia article and its literally like "Hogan demanded this match have a different ending. Hogan demanded this match have a different ending. Hogan demanded this match have a different ending. Then he left." lol beautiful

Fans found him wandering around near the arena, randomly picking up litter and doing the Harvard Step Test on playground equipment. He also did the step test across multiple taped episodes in a row, making it seem like he had been stepping for 2 weeks straight.

Rise and Fall of WCW might be the worst documentary I've ever seen. It's so poorly told that it doesn't even matter what light WWE wanted to put on WCW. You need to already know what they are talking about to understand what they are talking about, and if you already know you'll probably be pissed off by it. It's a complete mess.

Tweak posted:i was very confused when i first got the network and was watching a bunch of the shows about the Monday Night Wars and DX was talked about as some sort of either turning point or behemoth to go alongside SCSA/Rock/et al. In my memory they were funny childish assholes (which i loved, being 13), but it wasn't like their feud with the Nation made me give up on watching WCW (who was fine accomplishing that by themselves). the heavy handedness at which the wwe frames everything they did during the late 90s is hilarious Literally every episode of Monday Night War declares the topic of that episode to be the turning point.

Six years ago I remember there being a chatroom that people from this thread would go to watch the magic. Does this group still exist? If, so who do I need to insult to get an invite? There's a discord server in the rules thread.
