But NJPW starts most cards with a Young Bucks match so clearly this isn't true.



On the other hand Extreme Rules is always horrible because you have poo poo like a STAIRS MATCH or 43 ladder matches before the main event which is a STAIRS LADDER match

Extreme Rules is always a good show though

For some reason I said extreme rules when I meant TLC, which is actually the show that is all awful gimmick matches

Extreme Rules actually has normal matches or at least stuff like Last Man Standing/Steel Cage as opposed to Tables, Tables, and Tables

edit: although I had to look it up because I had this confused and the last extreme rules sucked too, it was the one with the loving chain match and the lovely Rollins/Orton cage match

I must have a Daniel Bryan level of concussions that I can't remember this far back

Someone go to a WWE show, jump the rail, and try to pick up the stairs

Running for president would put the Hulkster in the awkward position of being in the one profession where he lies less than his competition

The idea that you could bring in Mr. WWF as a face and have him loving bury Mr. NWA/WCW as a heel and expect him to be over as the ultraface with your fans was amazing. Thank god they were smart enough to have him go heel with the nWo

Disco Inferno + Alex Wright was such a legit tag team though

I believe this was meant to be a joke. As in 'I'm bringing in a new monster...Kamala 2!!!' and then it's just Plowboy Frazier

Crazy exaggeration is the lifeblood of wrestling anyway. I miss the glory days of HE MUST BE 7'5!!! when the Giant came out

Possibly my favorite moment in WWE history is Michael Cole yelling HE COULD BE DEAD!!!!! when Vince McMahon fell off the side of the steel cage through a table

Gorilla loving sucked at actually being an announcer, but it is really refreshing watching guys who actually had human interactions with each other instead of just reading hashtags for 3 hours

I'm pretty sure someone from Tank's entourage picking a fight and getting their rear end kicked by people who were actually real fighters was a weekly occurrence back then

If I remember my old observers right, it was pretty much what you imagine. Tank was trying to pick a fight with Ken Shamrock so his guys were messing with the Shamrock camp, and unsurprisingly whatever unknown street fighter this guy was got his rear end handed to him by Frank Shamrock

I believe the whole thing went down at the cafeteria wherever UFC was being held, hence the nachos

Tank Abbot sucked, but he was over, so UFC tried to feed him lovely fighters (and he still was out of shape and lost to a lot of them)

Thank god his time in WCW was 10000x more entertaining than that
