Ok I didn't read it right.
I actually enjoy the ARMBAR. Always serves as light hearted dumb fun to get the show started.
Bryan was great, plain and simple. Did a lot, got unbelievable reaction and stole the show.
Cueto would just no sell it and get right back up.
DIS MAH KINDAH PARDEH!
You want discussions about the Mets second middle reliever during the main event of Raw every week huh.
It makes me weep to think how needlessly WCW took the air out of Vader once his feud with Sting was over and knocked him down the card. I still can't believe they jobbed him out to Jim fucking Duggan. Christ. And Vader's WWF run didn't do his tarnished mystique any favors either.
HOOOOOOGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNN
VEEEDDDAAAAAHHHHHH EFFFFFFFFFF
SHOOTTT EFFFFFGGGGGGGG
Eric sold the company to Hogan and killed WCW in 1994.
They just didn't know it yet.
I'm convinced that if Hogan wasn't around the nWo still would have happened (as Eric was working on the NJPW thing and that was clearly his insperation for angles).
Sting would have been in Hogan's spot and Austin would have been in Sting's spot.

Did... did Corbin just reference lonely Virgil?
He did. And he's definitely gotten better with promos.
Imagine if they showed some low card guy with some size march into the champs dressing room like that in the WWE.
Camera a little shaky and none of this invisible camera man shit. Like somebody is actually covering whats going on in the back.
Imagine if say Ryback burst through the door or even somebody like Stroman.
Few things:
- allowed to stare into the camera
- if he was given material he was given room to improvise a little on the language
- possibility that they took a few takes (which they sometimes do for raw )
- no fucking shitty ass jojo to detract from the promo

Thank You Daniel made me cry.
I don't understand why they have JoJo do backstage interviews when she's like 3 feet shorter than everyone. Like getting her in frame is a challenge.
Don't worry he went back and saved AJPW after all that shit.
That's the REASON they have her doing those interviews, I'm sure of it. Makes the guys look bigger.

TNA did the cliff hanger thing. I though it was neat
I mean just get an average height person and most of the talent still look big in comparison. It makes sense to have someone that is smaller than the wrestlers, but JoJo is short to the point where it makes the interviews harder than they need to be.
But yeah they are super strict in making sure the wrestlers look bigger. Tom Phillps standing with this his legs spread out or kneeling slightly through entire intrerviews is hilarious.
Lol

Except they wouldn't have had the money to sign Hall, Nash, or anybody else in '96 because Hogan at the beginning drew tons of money for WCW. Without Hogan, there is no Nitro and frankly, the nWo is just another heel stable. Sting, a guy who never actually drew that well outside of one night in December of '97 was never going to be able to make the impact Hogan turning heel was.

Also true.
LOL apparently while ESPN was filming a 30 For 30 episode for Ric Flair, he actually cut his forehead open for them as a demonstration on blading. Like, he did fucking what!? I have trouble believing that part will actually air. Also Vince sure as fuck doesn't want that on TV.
I sure it will air, people love that stuff.

Why wouldn't they air it? That's ratings gold and kills like 5 min less work for everyone.

Hollywood Heel Batista is a good idea on paper but it's important to remember that Batista sucked shit in his return run
have we forgotten the value of protecting this business???

Bats winning I can see it as a "HA HA Fuck you marks" and I can see some circles find that oddly cathartic same way I can see beloved characters being off'd in an episode of Game of Thrones or Walking Dead.
You can make a case that Bats would be the biggest heel in decades and I can see that be a bit of a benefit.
But fuck that noise.

I know this world doesn't exist but a heel Batista vs a heel Orton would be awesome to watch.
In realness I wouldn't know who to root for.
Orton RKO's Batista outta of the Batista bomb!!

Batista winning and the streak broken on the same show? Someone really wanted to see the Superdome burn to the ground.
I just don't understand why people hate on the dude as well.
If Vince comes up to your ass and tells you "Ok kid, you're going to be our new guy" you just going to flat out reject him? Have fun being a jobber for the rest of your career.
