January Wrasslin' |OT| The Assassination of Daniel Bryan by the Coward Vince McMahon
- Thread starter Aiii
- Start date
Something I hate about wrestling is when a guy is leaving the territory/company, they always go out of their way to diminish or sometimes full on bury the guy leaving so they won't look as good heading into the next place. I've always found that very distasteful and petty. Especially a guy like Sting who has given more to TNA than he did to the last 5 years of WCW. Not only is it petty, but usually a company will go out of their way to demean the legacy of a wrestler in their company, which also demeans any guy who has defeated him or any titles he's held.

Luckily no one is watching this.
It's not really about Sting or TNA, but wrestling in general. Having a guy drop a title or lose on the way out is the way you do business. Making a guy look like shit and jobbing him out out of spite against the wrestler and the promotion he's going to is so shitty.
Yup.
Poor Sting.
(Frankly, I was asleep for most of the show; I managed to wake up partways through the match where everyone started coming in.)
Yup. Fatman walking
I want to go to that Seattle show. Those Daniel Bryan chants should be epic.
Hogan's final segment was one of the most embarrassing moments in TNA history. If there was ever a time for burying someone on the way out, it would have been with Hogan.

If he wins the belt at mania and returns to Seattle with it...HOLY FUCK. That might be worth flying over there for lol
Really shows the difference in ego between the two, Sting took a pin while Hogan made the company look like shit, actually that's a great summary of both of their time spent in TNA
Shut the fuck up, Donnie!
I think it is a great summary of the two in general. Besides the Vampiro feud, Sting was always willing to put people over and make them look better, even when he shouldn't have. In pretty much all of his TNA feuds, he wanted to lose, but Dixie/whoever was in charge would always want him to go over. It's really a shame that no one was really able to get the rub from Sting in TNA, not because of Sting, but because of TNA.

It just hit me that Sting could be in the Royal Rumble. They should let him win it and have him give up his title shot for a match with Taker. Then have a big EC match for the main event at WM. it makes too much sense!!

I don't even want to see him show up until he works out for a couple of months to get in shape and gets some hair plugs. At least WWE can bring him in as crow Sting and hide how bad he is until the match with their awesome production crew. just have him in the rafters playing mind games.

With the rumoured big matches at WM out there, you know what Mania really needs?
A MITB match.
Those matches are almost always fun and with everyone "big" already in matches it would give WWE a excuse to push someone new in the main event.
The MITB matches really lost that "mid card guy tossed into the main event" stuff since it became its own PPV and John Cena started winning them.
Also Kevin Nash dyed his hair and beard again. Big Sexy in the rumble confirmed?

His Twitter puts him at Pittsburgh at the rumble and as mentioned he has also dyed his hair so id say he is in it

I just had a day dream where Randy Orton wins a PPV main event match over Bryan and instead of his music, Kool & The Gang's 'Celebration' plays instead.

Confetti, balloons and streamers fall from the ceiling. The Authority come out clapping and grinning ear to ear, while Bryan is still out from an RKO in the ring. Bringing up the rear are Brad Maddox and Vikki Guerrero forcing the whole WWE roster out to join in the celebration. Once everyone is assembled in and outside the ring, the music transitions to Kool & The Gang's 'Jungle Boogie'
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHGOO73Gxg4
After lots of yelling from Brad Maddox the WWE Superstars and Divas reluctantly form a Soul Train Line in the ring and Randy Orton goes through, busting out some awesome dance moves. As Orton nears the end of the line, Bryan is just about getting up in front of him, only for Orton to punt his head off and continue dancing.
Fade to black.

Krae_Man and Laserfrog still have Summer Slam logos on their avatars.
It goes without saying they both still have their Christmas lights up.

I feel like two Hunter's could not co-exist. They would try to steal each other's thunder and the result would be some kind of space-time rip.
