Yep. Here's WWE in the modern era, for comparison.



This seems to be saying that the WWE title changed hands in 2012.

Not to be all anal about a wrestling graph but still.

Probably in my top five Mania matches of all-time but every time I think of it I can't help but remember the big rear end wad of snot right above Owen's mouth during his postmatch promo.

God, I wish this match were better.

Two guys both hitting their finisher in the first minute of the match is an interesting idea, but not for the main event of Wrestlemania. Especially because not twenty minutes prior Undertaker and Shawn Michaels had probably the best pro wrestling match I've ever seen.

I don't watch How I Met Your Mother anymore. Was there ever a scene where Marshall meets Lily's family, and has to explain the facepaint that won't come off?

This episode is from a few years ago. It's a flashback to when Ted's hipster douchebag girlfriend in college "ironically" said that she had tickets to Wrestlemania. A few seconds later Lily runs in dressed as Hacksaw Jim Duggan. My favorite part is that it's been established that they were in college in the mid/late 90s so even back then the costumes would have been incredibly outdated.

e: HIMYM has some fun wrestling references on it.

Eh, actually, I don't really care, but being sarcastic about it somewhat seems to suggest a lot more to you guys.

My gripe is that she seems fairly nice/talented/etc., and has a great look. A long-term relationship with someone in his position at least opens the door for her to adopt his lifestyle choices. That would suck, as she's like one of three women in WWE who actually have some talent. But I'm just speculating, so.

You're being really judgmental about a dude you know nothing about and it all started because he got engaged to someone you've heard of. If he's on steroids who gives a gently caress? If Kaitlyn decides "I wanna do steroids because look how well it works for my boyfriend!" That's her dumbass decision to make. It's called agency and women are allowed to have it.

E: and for that matter I love the idea that she's been a pro wrestler for however long but this, THIS is the thing that could lead to her taking steroids.

Notwithstanding the fact that jokes are generally supposed to be funny, I still don't understand what's wrong with his suit. Did you just see an opportunity for wordplay and dive at it? I can dig that. Regardless, I think it's a dope rear end suit.

If he wants to move merch, then he should suggest a Sperm Snake™ shirt. Ideally, the back would have some stupid phrase written in the same cum splatter font as that one AJ Styles TNA shirt.

If memory serves the name of that design on shopTNA was "DISCHARGE."

Also it's bothering me that JJ is the coolest looking one in that Horsemen photo. Lex looks like a nervous prom date, Arn looks like that prom date's dad (which, I acknowledge, is the Arn Aesthetic), Tully looks like he just hit on his niece at Thanksgiving dinner, and maybe it's just me but there's something about Ric Flair in double-breasted pinstripes that just rubs me the wrong way.

I have no idea why this is bothering me this much other than it's the Horsemen and I know they're better than that but yuck.
