There will be recaps. And if something looked amazing, I'll go back and check out the full thang.

But it sounds like his wrestling isn't great and I'm going to hate him.

Actually, fun fact: I saw him debut maybe (?) when I was at my mom's for the 4th of July one year. It was just on the TV. I think a drunken uncle was watching it. He was talking about being straight edge possibly and I was like "this dude's aaaallll right (even if his name is kinda on the nose)."

Had great matches with Jericho, Lesnar, Taker, Cena, Bryan and Jeff Hardy.

Make sure you see the steel cage match he had with Hardy on a smackdown in '09 just after summerslam.

We just gonna pretend Money in the Bank didn't cause WWE to get the most mainstream attention it had gotten in years?.

It didn't have the buys, neither did SummerSlam 2011. SS '11 had the lowest buys of SummerSlam since 1997 (when WWF were nearly out of business).

I want Kane to make it. I'm the third member of the KaneWO with Soulplaya and Owl...but it's not looking good. It's like that dear family pet that you want to hold on for a few more years but is bumping into walls, pissing blood everywhere, and can barely jump up onto the couch.

I need a gif of either Kane crying after finding out his kid got Snitsky'd or when he staggers out into the cold winter night after hearing the X-Pac and Tori Christmas Story.
Unfortunately neither exists.

Also don't forget sf2fanatic, dude was rocking bald Kane as an avatar for a while, an underrated Kaneanite.

Emmalina will all be worth it if she shows up at Smackdown as Emma and cuts a work shoot promo on how she was sick of sitting around on her ass doing nothing.

I remember watching the streak end. I was already in 'fuck this' mode after Cena buried
Wyatt, so when the streak ended I just went inside. Came back and Bryan was on a stretcher lol. Couple seconds where I thought it was legit.

The three way at the Rumble was the highlight of Lesnar's run for me. That Oh shit moment when Lesnar came back after the announce table bump.

Triple H vs Stone Cold - 3 stages of hell was incredible but I'm guessing no one here actually saw that live?

It's said it doesn't hold up but at the time, holy shit.

Austin / HHH vs Benoit / Jericho match on RAW was godly too.

Ya'll overly negative.

****** / Jericho or Astericho was one of Jericho's best tag teams in WWE.

Depends what you mean by live? Wasn't at the arena, but I saw it as it aired. Fantastic match.

MITB 2011 was up on MITB 2010 and 2012 subsequently dropped.

Of course Summerslam 2011 was shit, they had already shit the bed so hard on the Punk angle.

The three way at Royal Rumble was great and so was the mania match that year. I'd actually put the CM Punk match just above the HHH stinkers.

Forgot about that one, okay this was the last great Lesnar match.

I saw it live (on tv) and remember it being one of the first times I saw one of those double knockout style finishes where a single draped arm gets a win, plus I never forget the episode of Raw on the lead up with "I NEVER SIGNED UH, THE CONTRACT!" as well as the following obligatory beat down of JR to anger Austin.

They should really Big 5 Money in the Bank. Either that or do the Smackdown MitB match at mania. I really love the Raw Supershow era ones with two matches.

Well he was capable of getting the first and only 5 star match in WWE since 1997 by Meltzer. Most of the time, I found it a little hard to take him serious in matches. He's a small guy but didn't wrestle like he thought he was he a small guy. It's hard to buy that he'd be able to hang with guys like Undertaker and Brock and not get immediately destroyed.

I like him best as a cult leader. That was believable.

That comparison sort of makes sense until you remember just how big Big Match John is in comparison to Punk. Those two have a bunch of great matches together.

Punk's match with Rey Mysterio at Armageddon 2008 is underrated, shame their actual feud never got to stack up, can't believe how little time they got at WM26.
I blame Bret.

Hey, I never said that as a negative.

That's the second time that's happened today. I most post like a cranky little bitch.

Nah I don't think so, the only time you've come across cranky to me was when I slammed the Brian Kendrick.

King of the Mountain is a great idea on paper, but in execution always comes off sloppy. Too many moving parts.

Godaamit, no one should do that! Although I kinda wish he left the memories alone and never came back.

Nah, the other time was on gaming side. I'll assume they're cranky.

To be fair, no feud with Mysterio can come close to Big Dave's feud where we got to see a friendship die on our very screen.
