I maintain that presenting Shane as a legit shoot style grappler who was a great threat to the Undertaker was funnier. One of the hardest laugh's I've ever had at a wrestling match was from Shane's lovely triangle choke.

That Mania season where everyone was laughing about the possibility of a Shane/Taker match because it was so obviously going to be a squash, and then it was a serious half hour competitive match

The GDT was surreal

Don't forget that Vince sees positive feedback, and does the wrong thing with it.

We think this simply shows people wanted to see what the buzz was about, and tuned in for the trainwreck.

God only knows what Vince will decide to put on TV in response.

Eh, this was after the streak was broken. Google turns up that he fought Bray Wyatt the Mania before he fought Shane, that must have gone well. Like, Taker wasn't quite as pathetic as he would become, but Shane fighting him and not losing instantly wasn't as crazy as it used to be since they are both jokes. I can't really decide who I'd put at #1 on any Shane Winning A Match He Really Really Shouldn't Have list, it'd be literally everyone.

Like, Shane vs. Brock is not impossible, people. And It's not impossible that Shane might get a longer match than Kofi.

I guess I assumed it would pay off in a logical way of Cole and McAfee being mad at each other. But I guess I don't understand much WWE booking so it not making sense shouldn't have been something I read into. My bad.

Kevin Owens is the best friend. When a friend wants to do something stupid, hypocritical or self destructive, Kevin will beat you to teach you the error of your ways. The reason why you have never seen El Generico again is he finally realised Kevin was right all along.

I know this post is 500 pages ago but I will not allow Skyscraper to be tarnished like this. I initially turned it off after like 20 minutes thinking can this get any dumber. Than I gave it a second try when I was doing my The Rock Anthology viewing (hell yeah Fast Five best movie ever) and it get's dumber, but then it turns out really good (for what it is). It's like 10x better than San Andreas at least...

Jericho is alot like Kevin. They are both willing to do anything to help you, even if you hate them for it afterwards. That takes true self sacrifice. God bless Kevin Owens/Steen and Jericho. They are also Canadian and Canadians are the superior friends to everyone. It's just facts man....
