Depends if they are going down the route of him comming back just to do a job. Who would he be wrestling? Please not Roman

I remembered this time period of fun memories seeing this on DSF as was the only way to catch WCW in the UK but I got wondering say they couldn't get Hogan to sign in 94 what they would have done. While we had just done the Vader/Flair feud at the end of 93/94 with Steamboat and Flair going into the Spring of 94 what angle comes next? Do we lead into a Sting/Flair feud for Starrcade 94 or maybe trying to make the Steamboat feud last longer?

I can't see it being Mancini as he had been doing jobs for WWE I think since 84 so he had a pretty lengthy stay, and was Takers debut opponent. Im wondering if the Pierce match was edited as didn't look like he went old school on him.

Watching the hall of fame speech Taker mentioned he roughed up a jobber I mean enhancement talent on a tv match. Any ideas when this match was or who was his opponent?

Im suprised Rousey came back after all the shit she said about WWE. Shame Nia isnt there anymore though

As hes bashing Texas and theres a certain guy going into the Hall of Fame this year from texas

I wonder if its down to 80s having Muraco, Schultz, Graham, and a few others in the mid to top event slot where as 90s you had Bret, Perfect, Rude, Bulldog, Austin, and several other guys.

Any ideas where this awesome footage came from? Ive been the Story of wrestlemania DVD and dont recall this footage being on there so guessing this surfaced a while ago online.

I was suprised they didnt keep it as TBA and have Taker as a suprise entrant being it being 30 years farewell to his debut in a Survivor match. Wont be suprised if they have him at the PPV just to get a beatdown by that racist Sullivan guy.

How long is this Retribution crap going to go on for? I have no interest in seeing it, just seems a redone version of NWO/Nexus from years ago. Or would all it take a real life terrorist thing in the real world and it get canned like the Hassan one did?

Just read the results online for raw and I often wonder why ppl bother watching. Same old shit 6 f5s just lame.

I'd pay 5 extra if it mean no more annoying tapout ads with cena and Charlotte

I'd rather wwe dub in music for the entrances for 88 - 95

That's crazy. So what if they are older, they are announcers not wrestlers. I used to love watching wwf all American wrestling as a kid with mean gene and hillbilly jim on a Friday night. Then after a while tuning into a Sunday afternoon in 93 it was back with okerlund and the brain. Loved those days.

Out of the zamboni vs beer truck vs concrete corvette episodes which would you say is the best show to watch?

Thinking about this I'm not sure. Everyone tends to hype the highest rated raw from May 99 but there's been a lot of good ones like the beer truck one or the corvette cemented one. No idea if the show itself was good or it's just a one hit pony segment.

I dont even see why he had to beat Goldberg to begin with, Roman should have been the guy to beat Goldberg.

Theres some good matches but do wish they were all dark matches and not ones already been seen before as thats what made Unreleased stand out.

Before Hunter got injured who was the most likely person to win the 2002 Rumble? I still feel it was a terrible decision to book Hunter to when considering how over Austin was with the crowd reactions leading up to the show and even during the show. I think id rather have seen Hunter beating Jericho for the title at No Way Out and Austin winning the Rumble so we finally get to see Stone Cold's revenge after the 3 stages of hell the previous year. Then at Mania have Austin beat Helmsley for the Championship. I wasent impressed with HHH/Jericho and felt it was a poor main event, watching the weeks leading up to the Rumble you could see Austin was getting jobbed out losing to Booker T and then handicap match against Booker/Boss man when Austin was the number 1 guy in 2001.

Who said anything about money? I said career longevity. Yes, money (and the more important part here, security) is part of that, but not all of it. It sure as hell beats prostituting himself in high school gyms for $50 a shot like a weathered old gigolo, which is probably what he's doing now. "The Wrestler," anyone? Sabu made his choice, he cared more about something else than money and career longevity. Who are you to tell him he made the wrong choice? Do you know if he's happy or not happy right now with his life? I know he eventually went to WWE but im not sure how his run would have gone during the invasion when you look how they treated Tommy Dreamer during that time frame. All the years later Sabu finally came in and he basically got treated like a jobber. Sure there was a interest in making money after the ONS event but I think they shouldnt have used the same 3 letters and came up with something else or at least not used the old ECW guys.

Didn't they release DVD's at one point? Im sure ive seen the odd matches on superstar profiles.

If they had held off for a week or two they could had better response at the Georgia Dome. I dont think they wanted a good response. They probably got exactly what they wanted at the time. Was their any truth about the rumours about Schavoine coming in around this time? I read something about they were in talks but because he kept constantly calling in asking they changed their mind. Not sure if it's the first, but Harley Race vs Hogan in 1988 predates. In 1985, Terry Funk took bumps on the ringside table around the loop during his feud with Junkyard Dog. Hogan slammed Quake thru a table at Summerslam 90. Does summerslam count though as Quake missed the table and didnt go through it.
