Vince breaking up The Hurt Business just because he could is...still one of his most baffling decisions in recent memory. There was literally no upside to breaking them up. The only reason I could imagine that he would break them up is because he was afraid Bobby might get cheered against Drew when live audiences return at Mania. But I don't think that was ever going to happen. Instead after THB broke up, that same night, Baron Corbin showed up on RAW (despite being a Smackdown superstar) and reforming two thirds of the "Midcard of Evil" with Bobby. I won't lie, I would be utterly fascinated to dissect Vince's thought processes just because they are so...disorganized.

I struggle to think of a modern day wrestling faction that was worse than Retribution. I think their only redeeming factor was their entrance song.

Catpetter1981 posted:League of Nations, perhaps? League of Nations at least got clowned on at Wrestlemania by Foley HBK and Austin Retribution did nothing for six months and then disbanded on the ppv before Wrestlemania the loving Corre did more than Retribution. They might be the worst faction to ever exist edit: In WWE. Nightmare Collective was worse but at least they had the wherewithal to kill them after a few weeks when it was obvious how bad it was.

League of Nations was a mess simply put together to make Roman look good, but they had both the World and US Titles, got a Tag Title feud and looked cool as hell together. Probably one of the bigger squandered opportunities in recent memory. Retribution were dorks from the start and never looked better for a single second.

I refuse to accept that nobody in the WWE except for Mark Henry had heard of Daniel Bryan, there's just no way, that's some "also I would've been the bassist for Metallica" level wrestler talking about their past stuff

Thanks for breaking down what Raquel has said for me, DSIV. --- The best part of the League of Nations is that, from my understanding, Owens was supposed to be in it, but he was sick that show. And, instead of getting buried forever for calling in sick, he managed to dodge a creative bullet. --- It's looking like the WWE edits are, at least for now, going for blackface and slurs, based on what they've apparently done subsequent to the original edits:  (HHH was in blackface for the Corporation skit as he was imitating The Rock again.)

Masked Mr Wrestling III turns out to be Vince Russo, he demands Jeff Jarrett decides if he's with or against him, Jarrett decides against so Russo brings along the Nazi Harris twins & BG James. At some point, deciding they needed to have an even worse leader for the group than Russo, Glenn Gilberti tried to takeover after Russo "retired to spend time with his family"

I think Retribution's biggest accomplishment was...beating the RAW Men's Survivor Series team right before the event itself...just for the RAW team to go on and basically sweep Team Smackdown at the event. I know Reckoning though didn't win a single match on the main roster, and I think only won once on Main Event apparently. She probably had one of the worst main roster debuts of all time.

So apparently WWE were inducting pioneering African American women's wrestler Ethel Johnson into the hall of fame. Except: 1) they never asked her family https://twitter.com/missezrenee/status/1379794903388028929 2) they used footage of an entirely different wrestler. https://twitter.com/SeanRossSapp/status/1380182670219558919
