These ones are always bad aren't they?
Holding pattern between Rumble and Mania.

Na, have been some good ones.

Lol Randy out.

Oh dear God.

That was the fucking worst.

The only good thing about that PPV was at least it was short.

Just googled the results. Why do they hate Drew so much. First title run ended by Borton, and now his second run ended by the Miz. 2 guys who, all respect, are past their prime in terms of character.

I disagree about Miz. He's been massively under-utilised for a long long time, and he's one of the best promos in the biz.

Not knocking him but... he's been around since 2005/6? His first world title is 2010. I think he is very good on the mic, no doubt and he is better in ring than some give him credit. I just think for show that is mired in seen it all before stuff, the WWE should not be falling back on Miz and Orton (who is like the miz only better in ring really) to hold titles and get fans interested. They should be putting over the younger guys who WWE should be building up... like McIntyre.

Its not Drew losing that I have the issue with, but its whom to. So many of the WWE stars have been around for ages (I know Drew was there years ago but his current run is only recent) It doesnt make me want to tune in.

They can’t hate him that much if they gave him a championship at wrestlemania.

They probably want a new goodie to beat a baddies WM.

Yeah, I suppose with all the covid stuff it feels like he hasn't had much of a run but I checked online and he did get at least 202 days on the first one.

Even if miz loses it I think having a baddie as champion at WM is the right choice. It’s not the same to have a goodie retain imo.

He can wrestle, he challenged Drew after Mania last year, and then fought Randy Orton. He was on Legends Night which was like 6 weeks ago?

The reveal pic had him in a suit, so it might well be non wrestling. Judging from his comments on Austins podcast, I suspect that if he is going to wrestle it will be a Brock style special attraction.

Unforgiven 2000, Stonecold just comes out and hits Shane with three stunners and drinks beer with the crowd for 20 minutes. They fucking love it!

On a side note the lockdowns have got me into other wrestling promotions as see as there’s little else to do. Noah has been great recently and Stardom for me was the best wrestling product of 2020. I’ve also ploughed through a 10 hour YouTube video of Kenta Kobayashi’s Triple Crown title defences.

That time around 2000 was fantastic, maybe a year or two either side.

The whole who done it around who ran over Stone Cold.
Stone Cold vs the McMahon family.
Commissioner Foley and some of the wildest matches ever.
You had the TLC match which brought together three of the best tag teams ever. In fact it was a strong era for tag teams in general, there were at least 5 decent ones.
The Brothers of Destruction!
6 man Hell in a Cell.

Great stuff.

Its also the time period used for WWF No Mercy on N64. Hell of a good roster in that game.

Do you know who the guilty culprit is? Because if you dont, you are in for a surprise.

Yeah that happens a fair bit from memory.
