Las night Heyman was pitching him going to the main event of WM, Steph told him it's the Rumble or nothing, and Heyman said he'd make Brock accept that...this time.
Then Brock came out at the main event of Raw and rekt the entire (heel) roster and Roman.
In a match he should have also lost

What's a better option? Winning a match everyone knows you will win or an open tournament?
Best scenario would have been if they knew before WK and could have had a surprise win but we wouldn't have gotten the styles match.
Ah okay, that makes more sense. Haven't finished listening to the reviews so no real idea what happened with the Roman stuff.
Who does New Japan have that wouldn't look like they're simply being fed to Omega? Naito?
Tanahashi.

Hope they put the belt on Omega
Would that even go over well? You're feeding John Cena to the guy who struggled fighting an eight year old.

Why should Sting ever be able to beat Triple H?
we all know how the IC match would have gone anyways
Man, I probably shouldn't be so excited to get to crap like this...

I wonder if Nakamura gets jumped out of CHAOS on his way out like Styles was evicted from the Bullet Club.

You're either elevating Omega to a major heel or you're not.

DX took the war right to the front doors of Nitro and WCW ran scared.

Sting was basically one of those Japanese soldiers marooned on an island awaiting orders for decades after the war. Poor guy didn't know he had already lost
Even though the Sting/HHH match was dumb as fuck I still marked out big time for it. It was a fun as hell overbooked late 90s wrestling match.
In hindsight that really could have backfired big time on WWE if they would have let DX into the building. Everyone would have been like "dude turn on Nitro, DX just showed up"

I think they could've sued
Who could've sued who?
did bischoff ever explain why they didn't just let DX in? that would have been money

WWE could've sued WcW. When Hall showed up for the first time, he was oozing machismo like Razor and Vince quickly had his attorney's draw up papers to sue WcW for character infringement. So with DX being in character, he could've sued.
Except the cameras DX had with them would become evidence to the fact that the entire bit was a preemptive plan by WWE to get DX into a WCW arena.
IIRC I think he said it was an impulse decision to lock them out. In hindsight he's said he should have absolutely let them in.

I enjoyed Flair on the Stone Cold pod last night. Especially was surprised about his response to Stone Cold wishing WCW was still around to provide competition to WWE. Good interview and Flair is a really funny guy.

I didn't bother with it, but based on your words I will try it at lunch today.

He said that he was not even aware what was going on. He was doing pre-production in the ring, and found out when he got to the back what was going on. He said he almost went for it to let them in, but wasn't sure what the ramifications would be from corporate on his end.
I think he stated either on Austins podcast, or on Flair's that if he could go back, he would have let them in.

I went in expecting the normal style of Flair interview where he takes every opportunity and question as a way to put himself over but this was a nice change of pace. He seemed much more "real" in this interview.

Yeah, I think Flair being sober helped a lot, heh

Question for everone:
If you could undo ONE decision of a match and have the reverse winner, which match would you reverse?

$600 is a good reason not to, but...alright VIRTUAL FRIENDS!
Undertaker/Shawn Michaels so Shawn wouldn't be retired.
