Those officials must be even more roided up than Ryback to be able to restrain him like that.

how did wwe convince paul heyman to comeback
His connection with Lesnar mostly, they needed someone to work they mic for him so after that horrible contact signing segment they hired Heyman as a mouthpiece. And since Heyman is amazing he stuck around to help with Punk's heel turn, with how over he was as a face, he really did need Heyman's dickishness to draw heat on himself quickly.
Heyman loves the work so I'm sure he didn't need that much convincing.

I haven't watched for over a month. I'm not even sure if Punk is still champion. Last thing I saw the Ryback v. Punk PPV.

Oldberg.
I think having Lesnar come back was really influential in his decision. I also imagine that they're was a clear understanding that he probably wouldn't have much involvement in the writing/story of the product.
And I thought I felt old when I found out it's been 15 years since the Montreal Screwjob.
He even used the F5 as his finisher in OVW right?
God damn, it has. :\

LAW was talkin' about the Montreal Screwjob, and John Pollock said that he felt this was the most famous wrestling match of all time - I think that's insane.
Andre vs Hogan is the most famous in my opinion. Am I crazy? Or do you all agree with me? I think you'd be hard pressed to ask people on the streets about Bret vs Shawn, but people remember and know Hogan and Andre.

The most famous match of all time is Cena/Rock, once in a lifetime, the biggest match in WWE history, more buzzwords and WWE hyperbole!
Seriously though Hogan/Andre makes sense, certainly more than Bret/Shawn.
I'd argue the iron man match is more well known than the screwjob. I wont forget when watching Breaking Point with a friend who's also a wrestling fan and he genuinely didn't know what the screwjob was while WWE ripped it off for Punk/Taker, not that i'm using that as my measurement.

Well on the plus side, Undertaker was set on fire during that dogshit opener to a dogshit match.
I'd pick Hogan Vs Andre since everybody knows that, even non-wrestling fans. But I bet you many hardcore fans would say Bret Vs Shawn because of the controversy and its consequences. However, a lot of that isn't as widely known as the imagery of Hogan and Andre facing off plus Hogan slamming Andre.

Nah, he was set aflame at the Elimination chamber the following year, unless it happened to him twice.
But yes it was a main event worthy of coiled up dog doo.

Oh damn you're right, that Elimination Chamber match that...yeah.
After Jeff Hardy left, the WHC was ruined. YEP I SAID IT.
The imagery can't be topped for a long time, I don't think.
It's kind of funny when you think Andre is supposed to be ... a Giant.. but looking at that picture, Hogan is just a few inches shorter than him.
So, Ryder made a song, or something that has a melody and Ryder's voice on it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_SvvGpFI_w

I didn't even bother taking either of my signs back after the show since I had just made the real quick the night before. Next time I go I plan on putting a little more effort into my signs like I did previously with these..
I'm thinking a Maddox Beef Mode sign will be due and I'll do another Ambrose as long as he's shown up by that point.

Nice, wonder who the other two members of the Envoy are going to be? I'm guessing Crossbones as one of them, and an old Mantis tag partner for the other - Zero or Hydra, maybe?
Also, SHINE 5 is live via iPPV tonight at 8PM EST;
http://wwnlive.com/event-shine-11-16-12.html - $9.99
After Rain & Mercedes Martinez cost Jazz her shot at the SHIMMER World Title at the last show, she called in Amazing Kong to even the odds and set-up what should be an excellent main event for SHINE 5. Elsewhere, Nikki Roxx makes her return to face the destructive Jessicka Havok, plus, 'The Wrestling Goddess' Athena makes her SHINE debut against Ivelisse, while Kimberly, becoming increasingly unhinged as her losing streak continues, teams with quirky cosplayer Leva Bates to take on the formidable team of Allysin Kay & Taylor Made, Made in Sin.

More developments in the Davey Richards/FutureShock Wrestling situation - basically, Richards won their title on his last UK tour after he accidentally knocked out the champion (but would later admit he did it on purpose as he felt the guy was working too stiff). Richards agreed to come back and drop the belt at a later date, but then demanded more money after already being advertised for the event, as he was now the champion he felt he deserved top pay. Fast forward to today, and Richards was meant to return to the UK this weekend for the rematch, but...
This smells like a work, playing off Richards' recent bad reputation, but not sure how much sense it makes to run an angle where a big draw doesn't appear as advertised on two seperate occasions.
Yeah, it's a great building for wrestling, and the 4PM bell-time that comes from running there suits me perfectly, as that's only 9PM over here ^_^

That kid was paralyzed when a friend dropped hundreds of steel folding chairs on him, imitating a stunt he once saw performed by John Cena. Way to go John, but visiting the kid won't wash the blood from your hands.
A Barrage of chairs?
