Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I think I've even seen Cena himself remark that wearing that merch and wrestling in jorts is just a thing he has to do.

All the Arn Anderson love in here is awesome! Was my favorite member of the Horsemen and I loved his tv title reign. Plus he resembled my Dad so how coukd I not cheer the guy?
Thanks for making me spend money, you dick
seriously though, I would have totally ignored this game otherwise, thanks!

We'll have to agree to disagree.

Mine too! Are we brothers?! MAYBE!
He's such a beast though. Arn Anderson is truly THE ENFORCER.
Reminds me - how do you all feel about "Retiring" certain titles for people, much like teams would a jersey? Titles as in that was what they called themselves - like retiring "The Enforcer" so nobody can use it? It's already frowned upon, but I think it would be dope to have a "gallery" of sorts with peoples' titles and being THE definitive one.
Dude was the definition of wrestler. Legit bad ass all the way to retirment. This dude gave Vader the spine buster....VADER.

Arn Anderson has the best spinebuster in wrestling, and I say this loving Batista.

AA spinebuster is God tier of all spinebusters. Ron Simmons spinebuster I would say is in the top 3 though. My favorite part of Flair's book was the stuff about Vader and how Vader would tell him to hit him like a man or he would kill him. WCW Vader was a unstoppable monster and my fav Big Man run of all time.

WCW Vader vs Sting feud is one of my favorites. Just awesome on every level. You bought the babyface's motivations and that he had a SMALL chance. You bought Vader as an unstoppable monster. Nothing they did outside of the matches or even inside the matches made you question the matchup at any time. Perfect feud.
AA's spinebuster was unbelievably smooth but had that SNAP to it once he turned the corner. Fucking amazing.

idk, I always liked his spine busters... his knees are also pretty good
then again i'm the only HHH mark here because none of you guys understand what's best for business

This is what sets it apart from all the imitators,that snap made it seem like he was trying to kill a man. Plus you add to his incredible in ring work those badass promos and that guy is a Damn near perfect pro wrestler.
Sting/Vader and Cactus Jack/Vader were both incredible feuds in dub ya cee dub ya.

I know it also sounds weird but AA's body shape also helped the spinebuster look. You could have a huge dude like GARY STRYDOM pull off the same spinebuster and it wouldn't look right. AA was somewhat round and somehow that shit enhanced it.
I love seeing Scott Hall doing so well.

K2 doubles for both Kelly Kelly and Ken Kennedy, too!
As for Kaitlyn, it'd probably mean less ass biz updates so they'd just prefer that
WCW always had dope feuds. I'm talking about feuds that stick to your bones. When you saw Vader and Catcus Jack beating the shit out of each other...it felt real. When Dusty was getting beat down by the Horsemen...it made you want to drive to Charlotte and drop kick Flair in the mouth.
I miss that in wrestling and I seriously don't remember a feud in a while that had the same storytelling and animosity Close contender was Cena/Edge.

What about WWE's booking vs Daniel Bryan of last year?
No teeth at all. Ridiculous.
But yes. Anger and frustration was such a big part of how you're supposed to feel at different points in those feuds. I can't say they don't exist anymore, because I feel a lot of that is rose-tinted glasses and being young, but there's definitely some great feuds recently that can evoke the same feeling.
Just don't ask me what they are.

I really love older Arn as well, when he wasn't always fighting for a spot, but he brought a sense of distinction and professionalism with an undercurrent of "I am still a fucking badass" that I enjoy.

If you guys want, check out this DDP Interview from the Redhands Podcast. The podcast is run by a Coli (TSC subforum) member and his first interview just happened to be with DDP.
He's interviewing him over the phone so it may sound a bit jarring, but it's a good listen.

No shit? Awesome. I'll listen.
Bryne feud was good for an underdog story but as far as feuds are concern...I got nothing. Bryne/Kane could have been more than just a waste of time if the WWE allow some emotion into that rivalry. That's what I'm saying. The feuds over the years are ok to good but lacking soul. The only feud that had a buildup, emotion, and a storyline was Shield/Wyatts. It felt surreal all the way to the damn PPV. The staredown, the slow buildup in the match, and the chaos afterwards...it was like holy shit this promotion finally got it.
I'm going to be fair and even say the Survivor Series match had some emotion in it despite the random stipulations. Based Trips was the fucking star throughout the entire match.

Survivor Series 2014 main event was a MOTY contender for sure, and it's been a long time since an SS match even meant anything. GREAT goddamn match.

What? There was none of that at all. It was literally "here's two super over factions with 3 people each - fight" and it lasted for one PPV.
Pretty much made Wrestlemania 30, then sold the hell out of a great elimination match, the first in seven years or something. Putting in all the work.
King of Kings, The Game, The Cerebral Assassin, McMahon Son-in-Law, Heir Apparent, Jimmy hit me with that Triple H.

My man.
Also my favorite Arn moment is him rocking the shit out of Undertaker with that spinebuster at Mania X8
I just wish that it was Orton instead of Sting that help Ziggles win the match. I just imagining a dude running in the ring with a mask on and giving out RKO's like candy. He takes off the mask and the arena goes apeshit. Orton stares down Trips and then proceeds to give him a RKO. Ziggler wins and we have Orton/Rollins at WM31.

SS 2014 set up/hinted at several potential feuds in that match... and went with none of them
they kept teasing it throughout the months leading into the ppv. It was good for to get the crowd hype for that potential match. They also had matches after the ppv. It wasn't as long as Evolution/Shield but it still was effective.
It slowed down after that.
