Eh, it hasn't been that bad. He just seems thrilled to be there. It would probably be quite surreal. I am only on the second match, though...
Those really are terrible. Although... I kind of like the nWo one... >_>

CHIKARA today was... OK. Lots of fun n playful silliness, the wrestling left something to be desired.
I wandered in while the pre-show was going on, so was shocked at "family friendly CHIKARA" to have Jimmy Havoc rock up, tell us to fuck off, and then get chucked through 6 rows of chairs.

I find Joey Styles being a shithead about Mike Awesome during his entire match to still be awful and uncalled for
HOW DARE HE GO GET MORE MONEY AND NOT WORK FOR BOUNCING CHECKS
Are you kidding? Make him like Easy E in the story, wearing leather jackets and shit. Challenging Vince to a match, except Vince actually shows up this time and socks the fuck out of him? I'd pay money for that.

I don't know, unless Cody was given the most mic time and Bryan reverted back to his chickenshit Smackdown heel persona that group would be exposed super quick
You're definitely on to something here...
Michael Cole, JBL, and Booker T.

It's a sad state of affairs when the suggestions for The NWO, The Dangerous Alliance, and The Flock made me do a double take and I started laughing uncontrollably. So many SAWFT millennial jobbers over the past couple of years

How many successful (no low midcard but over with some people like clowns in a circus, actual draws) factions can you name that were never at any point in their existence led by a world champion?

*Sigh*
At least there s a rumor Brad Maddox might be on.
Brad should be an announcer, the GM, the back stage interviewer, a manager, basically he should do everything.
This is kind of a loaded question because as soon as you take away the low midcard, you also take away the groups without world champs.
TNA doesn't exist though.

Flock was my favorite faction in WCW but let's not let that get in the way. Horace and Reese sucked.

That Flair / Lethal segment is still the best thing TNA has ever done.
New Jack and Shark Boy in a kiddie pool gets my vote.
Chet Lemon and Black Snow is second.
Jazz was so fucking legit, i miss her so much

My thought was to have JBL as a part of it instead, funding the whole thing with money from his offshore bank accounts and cutting mocking promos from his island paradise home.
But I like your idea too now!
You guys are making me hate the WWE Network again for not adding more Nitro. v_v

The part I liked most about Raven's Flock was the Saturn/Raven relationship. And when they brought in Kanyon as Raven's pal.

Imagine if he said this in real life. Goldberg would piss.

There are five people in that ring, plus ric flair
WCW had five horsemen for a little while with Jarrett being in the group.
Speaking of Weird Times for the Horsemen: Remember Hennig being a member for a day and a half or whatever and then almost immediately turning on Flair and joining the nWo? Why did that happen? He didn't really fit, did he? I wonder what it would've been like if he actually became a long-term Horseman.

Hennig was set up to perfectly fit into the Horsemen by taking Arn's "spot" as The Enforcer...and then he turned heel so Flair could get a facelift. Hennig as a face worked really well, too. As a heel, he never got close to the main event again (being in the mid-card title match against Goldberg at BATB '98 doesn't count).
man they haven't even added any prime Attitude era Raw's for god sake
step it up @WWEArchivist

Desmond couldn't hold on to Chelsea or his spot in Fourtune.

Nigel's TNA run started off so promising - minus the goofball Wolfe name. Desmond was a fantastic first name, but the run peaked early with the Kurt stuff before essentially ending his career thanks to ABYSS BEING IN STUPID FUCKING GARBAGE MATCHES EVERY WEEK and the ring being unsanitary as a result.

I'd imagine you would have to duck extremely low to avoid an awkward car crash situation
Hennig joining the NWO was pretty much a waste. Only done for shock value when they could've made the Horsemen stuff pretty special with Flair, Hennig, Benoit, and McMichael (although Malenko was a better choice).
A lot of people have had to duck just to get in the face with it.

You could do that drop to the ground thing wrestlers sometimes do after an Irish whip

It makes me wonder if a lot wrestlers are intimidated by the mystique and grandeur of Daniel Bryan. Like when they know Bryan is Yessing and setting up for the running knee they lose a grasp on all of their hard training and preparation, becoming paralyzed with fear. These sort of mind games really kinda make Daniel Bryan a modern take on the Undertaker imo
