they would be too busy putting over the bosses daughter to be bothered to call the match.

I remember this.
Yeah. Although, I enjoyed that Mauro fellow overall when I watched Smackdown earlier.
It really is fantastic.
That fan challenge one is hilarious. Anyone here who lives around that area going to take the challenge?
Also, Rey I bet wants that WWE money now those stories of him wanting to coming back and him leaving AAA because its a wreck right now.
Dammit Kurt, you're 47....it's time to quit while you're still ahead.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Vince's understandable aversion to a man dying in the ring is going to prevent him from coming back, but I just want to hear YOU SUCK one more time

Was Xpac the biggest over achiever in wrestling history?
Kevin Nash?

X Pac was the 2nd best thing in DX entirely.
Shane McMahon is the correct answer.

Isn't that always how they work?
I don't think they've always had an actual finish line.
Friend Cena tucks Kane into bed after a long match.Isn't that always how they work?

Kurt vs RuRu at WM. Still time to save the show!
You know one wrestling trope that bugs me?
Tables. Especially when you know the person that sets up a table is going to be the one going through it.
It happens nearly every time with few exceptions. We know the guy setting up the table going through it is a safety thing, but it just ruins the whole suspense factor of the spot.

CM Punk is smart and could work. Pac was terrible at everything and nobody liked him but he still made a career out of it.

This kind of sums up my hesitation with re-watching attitude era PPV. I loved it at the time, I was a 14? 15?, but I suspect it is not aging well at all.

Friday Night Smackdown tonight!
I'm watching through the Attitude Era for the first time and it is pretty cringeworthy in places. Still some great moments, but I wouldn't want WWE to ever go back to "the good old days".

Buff had one of the top 5 or 10 best looks in wrestling. Not his fault WCW couldn't book for shit.

Vader is the best big man ever in professional wrestling.
FTFY
LOL, Vader talk happens and BoBo comes running.
It wasn't just the Attitude era that made raw awesome, that combined with the Monday night wars that made it a can't miss show. I guess theirs really no way to replicate that.

Considering damn near everyone was a booker near the end, it very well could've been his fault!
Well there's no longer competition and the company is run by a 70 year old Vince that only cares about his own personal booking ideas.

I miss the charisma and personalities that helped it so much (NOD, Austin, Foley) and how well the stories moved. But I'm beginning to realize a lot of the actual material was just bad and it set the stage for one up manship in matches. I wonder how many careers were shortened during this era.
Fuck man, that feud with DX. Where he tries to protect Chyna and HHH sets his face on fire. But it was all a ruse by Chyna and they all fuck him up. Even at 12-13 years old I felt so bad for him. I started to hate DX after that.

Holy christ the tombstone HHH does to Taker at Wrestlemania 2011 is hard to watch. Taker's head is SO close to the mat.
Yes I miss the personalities of the past eras. If only wwe would give these wrestlers a free mic, with just some directions to take the storyline, and the rest was up to them. That would weed out a lot.

I was reading, that DX shit with Tori and Kane is what made everyone hate X Pac lol
Ah yes, the birth of X-Pac Heat.

I never hated the guy until he did that X Factor shit, that was horrible.
literally one of the worst finishing moves i've ever seen in my life. and i have to see it once a night if he's on one of the RAWs my wife and I are plowing through. little guy kicks big huge guy in stomach, grabs his head, and somehow pulls him up into the air and slams his face into the mat.
literally the most nonsensical thing i've ever seen. i can suspend my damn belief for a LOT, but come on.

It's just as nonsensical as the spear and superkick. 99.9% of spears are just someones forearm hitting the person in the waist.

Not the move but the shitty ass group with Montoya and Albert. X Factor was probably the most believable move for him at the time since he was so small. A spinning wheel kick just wasn't going to make it in the Attitude era.

Better than other photoshoots Becky Lynch has participated in during her career.
The only thing I remember about the X-Factor group was that theme song. Someone thought that was fitting for them.
