Oh okay. That makes more sense. What promotion(s) did you work for?

Like a full list? Uh...
CZW, CHIKARA, ROH, some small no name indies, FWE, House of Hardcore, etc. There's too many to list, and I've forgotten a lot.

So was Vince screwing Bret the first shot in the war between Old Man McMahon versus the internet?

Only $60 to find out.
For a few months after her premiere they are. Then she disappears for a few weeks and comes back as enhancement talent. Good investment as she is the tag team division in 1996.
It's okay,
It's been a slow Sunday, guys.

Man, I totally forgot that the 'Main Events' during the 80s happened right in the middle of the shows. That took some getting used to.
Don't laugh they actually just signed a tv deal to air their shows on the fight network in Canada.
They will be shown on the same channel that airs MMA and TNA.
RAW is also set up this way for its first three years, assuming it had one.

These Attitude Era shows are something else. Both for good and bad reasons. Mostly bad. But it is interesting that Austin was clearly not 100% yet in the lead up to WM (he worked all of two televised matches in January-WM, one was the Rumble and one was an 8 man tag), then HBK gets injured at the Rumble and doesn't wrestle again until WM. During all this, HHH injured his knee and as soon as he was ready to get back in the ring, Owen nearly breaks his ankle.
Then in the middle of the Foley/Funk vs NAO, Road Dogg injures his shoulder and is out of action. It seems like the Road to Wrestlemania was cursed in 1998.
I also didn't at all remember how LOD 2000 came to be. My memory was of DX/NAO beating them and powerbombing Animal through the announce table, they took time off, then came back at WM with the new gear/hair and Sunny. But nope, they stayed being losers to everyone until a few weeks before WM, got into a fight, then came back "new and improved". It was weird.

Are you suggesting that former NXT Superstar Kassius Ohno, a man fired for his weight problems, would conspire with a Japanese ring crew to loosen the ropes to the perfect amount that would leave enough tension for Irish whips and springboards, but just enough slack to allow a spot so the Japanese audience could have a giggle at the expense of Chris Hero's jiggle?
Now I ask you, which seems more likely? The above scenario, or that Chris Hero had not tried that spot since gaining a Daniel Bryan in his belly region? Food for thought.

just plain smh...followed by LMAO!
Well, yeah.
I'm not familiar with his repertoire, but the first thing the guy does is grab the middle rope and never lets go. What else would he be doing, exactly? Seems like one of those zany indie spots to me.
Sorry to expose the business, friends.
Is there video evidence of Chris Hero speaking Japanese? I'm not willing to believe this story if he doesn't speak Japanese.
I agree completely. It seems like people here just want to body shame Hero and imply he is incompetent because he gained a little bit of weight.
I thought we had moved past that.
My goodness. Hard to argue with facts. #TeamOnPurpose
