- Thread starter BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!
- Start date
The only person I can think of who is right now persona non grata in the entire industry is Double J.
They're pushing the Punk documentary because the network is tanking and they're in absolute desperation mode, they're still pushing AJ because she's the only diva that gets a reaction and sells a ton of merch, that's it
They took shots at Austin for months when he took his ball and went home. If only he had had gotomeeting.com on that fateful day, he could have looked Vince in the eye and things might have been different. But he didn't and he left and the past is the past.
But they still took pot shots at him for the next 3 or 4 months. The biggest guy in history. They have completely ignored Punk since the Rumble and the only time he's been mentioned in a negative way was a one off Stephanie comment directed more towards the crowd for trying to ruin the segment than Punk himself. I don't think there is any bad blood, or if there is, they've learned from the Austin thing not to air it in public.

Jarrett is fine. He's just that in WWE, everywhere else he's good.
I obviously meant with the WWE, though I don't think the Carters want to do anything with him either.
Could you imagine a retirement match between him and Ambrose?
or Rollins?
or Bryan?
;_;
Funny thing many forget, slick back hair white shirt punk was basically a WwE creation, he soul into the wwe realm at this point he became
iconic trademarked wwe persona.
Before this Punk always seemed like himself,
this true wrestler in a land of wwe suuperstars,
dude got extremely payed during his run.
Oh btw I take it back, interacting with nash was the worst part of his career, it still baffles my mind how HHH injected not only himself but of all people freaking Nash into this buzz, wtf?, then it even led to HHH beating punk to!.

Punk, to me, was always stronger when he had a character to latch on to. It's why his top face run was so awful, he was just a guy
I want to know what the homie Jim Rome thinks about all this.

Watching the WWE Network on my XB1 and noticed that the PPVs have bookmarks now! Is this something new? It's pretty neat.

Straight Edge Society was completely worth it for the Rumble where Punk would eliminate somebody, cut a promo, be interrupted by somebody else entering, eliminate them, then go back to the promo

For WCW, almost all of the PPVs from 1998-2001 have book marks. Anything before that is really hit and miss. I haven't really checked for WWE PPVs.

Ahh, ok. I haven't noticed them at all on old WWE PPVs.

Would have been nice for Punk to go out putting someone over but yeah. If I was about to retire and my last feud was going to be jobbing to Triple H I would walk as well.

Sounds awesome. What year was that?
There have been several reports of TNA wrestlers on food stamps.
Fave five wrestling games
1. WCW/NWO Revenge
2. Wrestlefest
3. Pro Wrestling
Uhh...that's about it as far as my experience goes. I remember some of No Mercy and Wrestlemania 2000 or whatever. Warzone for PSX was okay just because it was one of the only games available, and it had good visuals for the time.

It was SES, Serena kept handing him the mic from ringside each time he had a break between eliminating people. It was Bearded Jesus Punk. It ended when HHH buried him out of the ring :[

Finished the Sting/DDP match. Two things:
1. When was the last time there was a wrestling show in North Dakota?
2. How the fuck was that match not the main event? "We've still got about an hour and forty-five minutes to go in this program still!" What?

So the title switched hands twice? Why? Was the second match at least decent?
Also, the "Charles Robinson" mentioned during the match - that's not Little Naitch is it? Why was Charles in charge of Nitro?
Cheap ratings ploy to lure viewers away from Raw. Give the fans what they want by putting the belt on Sting, then return to status quo like nothing happened by putting it back on DDP by the end of the show. It was so cheap, and felt like a slap in the face at the time.
I know Sting was worried about Vince misusing him, or flat out burying him, back when WCW talent was being absorbed into the WWE and that's why he never signed. But I really don't think Vince would have ever screwed Sting over as much or as badly as WCW did from Starrcade 97 onward.

So is modern Sting going to be in the game?
We have surfer Sting and Crow Sting but current sting looks pretty different then he did in WCW.

I remember tuning into Superstars just for their commentary and I was always entertained by it.
One of the most underrated commentary teams imo.

I'm trying to find more commentary Punk gifs in my archives...
After watching the CM Punk BITW doc I really will miss the guy. He had it all honestly. It's a shame that the wwe didn't really know what to do with for a long time. He was a future wwe HOF guy that could've been a huge star but the wwe messed it up like they usually do. The guy still got a lot of great moments but he isn't a true legend of wrestling. His career ended up being a little disappointing but he gave it his all. Gonna miss him.
