You must have missed the angle where Dawn Marie married Torrie's dad in order to fuck Torrie. Not fuck with, but fuck. And then her dad died from a heart attack while fucking Dawn. And they got married in their underwear in the ring. After the death, Dawn and Torrie had a Stepmother vs Stepdaughter match. The feud lasted nearly a year.

I hear the Roku app has Netflix-style resume from where you stopped watching functionality? Hopefully the other platforms get that soon.
Great to hear. Where did you find out about this? If it's a site that posts regular updates about what's going on with the network I'll bookmark it.

I watched Bad Blood 2003 last night. During the redneck triathlon, Jerry Lawler refers to four women in the back as something like "a selection of pies".

Lords of Pain, who I think usually gets their news from Meltzer, so, there could be a 50% chance this is accurate. :lol
Hopefully it is though. I will become a recluse and grow a Wyatt Family beard.

Haha, yea the culmination was at Royal Rumble 2003, which is where I started my Ruthless Aggression watch. And after all that disgusting nonsense of a storyline, the crowd booed the match.
I keep trying to suppress my memories of that. What a horrendous feud.
Mmm, yes please. Get all of those old shows scanned in baby. I need my WCW Saturday Night Barry Horowitz fix along with Essa Rios and Crash Holly Sunday Night Heat matches.
If by horrendous you mean glorious, I agree 100%.

I've been trying to watch WrestleMania 17 on Roku, but every time I hit play, I get an error message that says it's having a problem loading the show, please try again in a few minutes. And then it says the same thing over and over again.
I've had zero success using this service so far. It's been long enough where I should be able to at least watch something on demand. Even the live stream of NXT Arrival shit the bed last night.
I'm legit pissed that I paid for this network right now. It's been a complete waste of money for me.

This is the same guy who I'm pretty sure implied that Mr. T actually painted himself black.

Watching through 2003 PPVs cause I stopped watching it back then. This whole era is just gross - vulgar and sexist and stupidly violent and steroided-up meatheads galore...
And how the HELL did Cena ever get over as a "rapper"????
I agree. I watched Cena's opening promo on Great American Bash 2004. "I'll beat three guys like Kurt Angle's right hand".
...This is awful.

I'm glad they updated the 'swoosh' noise between tabs that just sounded like someone making a swoosh noise with their mouth.
Just caught up on NXT Arrival... they were never going to top that opening match, but a good card over all. The women put on a great match, and the main event was solid, if nothing special for a ladder match.
But this El Generico mark right here was blown away by the Zayn vs Cesaro match. I'm very glad I watched the best of three falls match earlier this week, because the way this built on that match was brilliant. A truly special match that (unlike I felt about the best of three falls bout) deserved those match of the year chants, and the respect Cesaro sold at the end felt truly deserved, elevating both men, and Zayn substantially. Great booking. Awesome match.
Seriously though, Too Cool? What the hell? Lets build up our tag team champs by having them take far too long to beat a 'never was' team. Even though he countered it at the end, having one of your tag champs layed out by Scotty for the duration of the whole build up to the worm was a really dumb idea.

Oh shit ons is on here too? Never got a chance to watch that back in the day, but should be well worth watching if only to see that crowd just crucify cena >
I just wish no way out '06 would load, because that taker angle match is one of my all time favs but I haven't gotten the damned thing to load since the network popped up T_T
Hopefully they continue to iron things out though and some if the lesser cached stuff starts getting better connet times.
Maybe you can help answer a long term question. What were the fans chanting at Cena, to my ears it sounds like "puff puff Cena puff puff" lol ?

There's around 8 or 10 of them I believe, more will be released. They're ALL good if not great. Wrestling Families was a good one as was the Soul of Wrestling.

Cyberslam '98 wasn't a PPV.
You'd be hard pressed to hear a crowd in 2000 react to something louder than the worm.
Those dudes were super over.

What's funny is that Too Cool in 2014 look like the boy bands do from 2000..in 2014.
You must have forgotten then. Too Cool and Rikishi were monster over.

They were and I hated it. Dance routine for the first 4 minutes of a Royal Rumble. And the crowd didn't hate it. I did though.
Wait, are people doubting Too Cool were over as fuck? They were awesome. Rumble 2000 when they decided to dance in the middle of the match, that Raw ten man where they were in there with the main eventers. WWE went mental when they made Rikishi the man who ran Austin down though.

Rikishi was over. Obviously they put the belts on Too Cool that one time...
but as over as anyone else in 2000? utter nonsense. even presuming you just mean tag teams. They were more over than they should have been (above people like, say the Hollys) but as over as The Dudleys? Edge and Christian? The Hardys?
That's insanity talking.
When 2000 era Raws get uploaded, you're going to feel like such a doofus.
Way more over than those teams. You're underestimating their popularity. This was the era when a catchphrase was almost all you needed.

You're presuming I wasn't watching at the time, for some reason.
Remember all the Too Cool merchandise? Remember that Too Cool home video that everyone was demanding that sold through the roof?
I don't.
I presume that you don't remember how over they were because either you haven't seen it in a long time or you're too smarky to pretend they existed.

You have a pretty bad memory if you don't remember that Too Cool merch. I'm pretty sure they even sold Grandmaster Sexay's sunglasses.

I haven't said they weren't over. I just refute that they were as over as anyone else in 2000. Because that's crazy talk.
The Worm > Five Knuckle Shuffle
I'm kind of prone to agree with him. Wasn't 2000 right around the time the Hardys, Edge & Christian, and the Dudleys all really start to get their mojo really going?
The reason we got Pat Patterson Vs Gerald Brisco in an Evening Gown match at King Of The Ring 2000 is the most bizarre McMahon thinking I have ever heard. Spoiler if you haven't watched the roundtable yet:
They were originally going to have Trish Vs Lita in a Bra and Panties match along with Patterson Vs Brisco in a hardcore match but only had room on the card for one of them. So Vince decides to take a piece from both ideas and do Patterson Vs Brisco in an Evening Gown match.
Thanks Aiii
