Just watched the Nash quad tear on YouTube and about ten seconds prior JR says" Kevin Nash is back from his bicep tear injury."
I like when the old rapist blew out both his quads.Just watched the Nash quad tear on YouTube and about ten seconds prior JR says" Kevin Nash is back from his bicep tear injury."
Well Taker and Kane was good up until their first Wrestlemania match. Then it just got ridiculous unless Austin was involved. Most overrated feud of all time is Taker vs. Kane. Too many ridiculous stories and mostly bad matches.Bloodline stuff got me thinking about what other long form stories in wrestling that were on this level.
Two that come to mind are Mega Powers exploding and the original Taker and Kane feud.
I don't know if I can put Sting/Hogan up there too because of how botched the landing was. It would be, but that Starcade was a disaster
The storyline that ruined any chance of Storm moving up the card. He was gone from WWE about a year later.
That's pretty much true. The initial storyline was crazy but interesting, but after they started wrestling each other (and the matches were never noteworthy, either against each other or tagging) it was just a lazy well that wwe would go to sporadically.Well Taker and Kane was good up until their first Wrestlemania match.

Roman is trash. He just got put in a decent story and they turned it up to 11 and refused to do or put any effort into anything else. He is three repetitive moves, three repetitive facial tics, three belts, and a tag line.Probably the Mega Powers because there's nothing because I can't think of anything that's lasted 3 years. I'm pretty sure Vince just said "1000 days bitches!" and they've just been going along with it because they were afforded to take their time by that measure. The only continuous angle I can think of (in terms of duration) that even comes close is the NWO. And imagine it going on for so long and being so played out that the only thing left they can think of to do is the fingerpoke of doom and nullifying a blood feud that lasted however long that was. Eddy my man, I applaud you for holding out for this long and being a faithful WWE fan. If this is as good as you're saying, I can all but assure you this comes from the genius of Paul Heyman. Roman is one of the most boring, redundant and predictable figures I have ever seen and combined with my unforgivable sin of only defending it on PPV and doing it sparingly. Whatever pedestal he has ascended to is on the shoulders of the giant that is The Wise Man. I don't care if he had a 5 star match somewhere. I watched the most anticipated match in probably 5 years when he squared off with Sami and he spammed kickouts, superman punches, stood there pouring conditioner out of his hair, didn't use the energy in the building and didn't apply one elementary submission maneuver. He's garbage and Vince loves him for his family name.
You are a true fan and a better man than I could ever hope to be. I'm too petty to support WWE in its current state despite consuming years of content and writing about it daily on this thread for dozens of pages

Got a few episodes of Raw and Smackdown in. A few thoughts
If HHH didn't kill HBK in the parking lot then I'm Vince McMahon
Mysterio is incredible
So THAT'S how Raw ended up with the original tag titles. Lance and Christian left for Raw
Lesnar hype rocket update: big guy realized that because he's from South Dakota, he's actually a reincarnated Tyrannosaurus complete with roaring sound effects put into his promotional videos. The corn fed dinosaur is preparing for landing on the moon. Arrival to the lunar surface is imminent. Mark Henry pronounced dead..
You hear that? That's also the sound of Jericho being relegated to the midcard. Why do I feel like he's just gonna face Booker and RVD every night for the next 3 years and that's gonna be Raw's midcard?
I'm gonna make a wild guess that Jamal and Rosey are members of the Anaoi/Miavia/Fatu dynasty. I'll check later to see if I'm right
Is Lance Storm seriously that dull in real life or is he casted that way? Dude should have been what Benoit was/is
Eddie. Baby. Your segment with the Rock might be the worst I've seen in ages. Your mic work needs work
Angle is God
Yup, they're Anao'i (Rosey) and Fatu (Jamal)
Jamal is Rikishi's younger brother (and nephew of the Wild Samoans). Rosey is Sika's son and older brother to Roman Reigns.
Also Jamal may look familiar to you... you know him better as Umaga.
Continuing my 1998 WWF watch-thru just got up to Summer Slam
Considering how things turned out, can't say I am a fan of the drunk/impaired Hawk angle
As much grief as it got I actually enjoyed the Brawl for it All, especially seeing Bradshaw eat the canvas, it actually looked like he briefly twitched on the first knockdown against Bart in the final, probably was concussed
I appreciate D-Lo as the European champ billing himself from different European cities, Lisbon, Portugal, and now Helsinki, Finland at SS
Despite never really being a fan of Austin or the Undertaker, I am finding the angle with Stone Cold, Taker, Kane, Mankind, and Vince to be quite enjoyable
the DX and Nation feud has been a good undercard battle
Man did we go to Iraq or Afghanistan or some shit in July/August 2002 or what? Or was Vince just that hyped being a year removed from the events of September 11th? I'm not complaining but I seriously can't remember because Vince is just pushing the living hell out of this Un-American angle. Maybe the guy just needed easy heat for Taker's face turn
Muhammad Hassan was amazing. I guess for me it just seems random. But I'm not complaining. Storm, Christian and Test are doing amazing work with thisVince has never been afraid of using conflicts to create heels (and faces). He did it with Iron Sheik when things were hot with Iran, turned Sgt Slaughter into an Iraq sympathizer during Desert Storm, not to mention the whole Muhammad Hassan debacle
