CrypticVillain Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Really? Lol Has he ever had a match longer than. 5 minutes? Man, it's been so long, i can't even remember. Shoot, even his first match against Umaga was only about 3 minutes and he won the IC title lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Weirdo Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) He almost won the Elimination Chamber in 2012. He was the last one eliminated. Also fun fact from that match is that Daniel Bryan is the only person to ever kick out of the Cobra. (OK I don't know if that's true but it sure as hell seems like it. And I'm not doing the research) Go back and watch that match. Crowd was behind him hard. Edited July 7, 2014 by Big Weirdo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 The year Del Rio won the Rumble...I think Marella was the last one eliminated.

CrypticVillain Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I never thought I'll say this, but I can't believe that the WWE actually gave the Divas two matches on RAW, and both matches had mildly interesting storylines behind them lol  I'm liking Dean Ambrose too right now. Always liked him since he was Johnny Moxley, but liking him even more since he broke away from The Shield.  I know it's kind of weird for me to say this, but I think Seth Rollins entrance music needs more of a punch in the first couple of seconds. It just seems like his music is so flat for some reason.  See listen to this...  Then listen to Dean Ambrose's   It just seems like Rollins music starts out so generic. It needs to pack a punch or something. Most of the time when he comes out, I don't even notice it's his music. I compared it to Ambrose's because when you hear that Guitar riff, you know it's him. Same with the first notes in Cm Punk's, Daniel Bryan's, Shaemus, and pretty much every other wrestler. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Turned it on at around 10ish....saw the stupid Sandow/Bret Hart segment and promptly changed the channel I wish they had alerts when ppl you actually like were on screen Unless the Wyatts, Cesaro, Reigns, Rollins, or Ambrose are involved, I don't really care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lombardi's_kid_brother Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I just read an interesting (and terrifying) point in a Raw review. The Montreal Screwjob was 17 years ago. And it's still being talked about on WWE TV. Â This would be like in the leadup to the first Wrestlemania, Bruno Sammartino was in the ring talking about Luke Graham.

Big Weirdo Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Did they say if Brett knew or not? They claimed everyone was in on it. Bret, Shawn, Vince. They said it was setup to make Vince a bad guy and to make Bret sympathetic at WCW. I don't buy it but it's interesting that two people that worked for them both claim it to be a work. One was on creative as a writer and the other was in production. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticVillain Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 If it was a work, they are the best at keeping secrets man. Something like that would have been exposed by now. You know somebody would have snitched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was once it became clear that the crowd wasn't buying it that Mr. McMahon became the heel against Austin. Â Also, I've seen Bret Hart act. He's not that believable. Â The only part of if that I still don't know is whether Michaels was in on it beforehand. I suspect not, but I ultimately don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Worse than CM Punk or Jericho?Maybe not. I just found some older pictures where he wrestled in trunks and he's actually in pretty good shape. I had always just assumed he was just an average guy.

One was on creative as a writer and the other was in production.  I don't believe it. Both Hart and Michael's egos were out of control around that time. I think Bret just did not want to drop that belt. I just think that Vince, being the smart business man that he is, capitalized off of it. I do think however that that interview with JR was a worked shoot.  They (HBK/Hart) both ****ing hated the hell out of each other. Even if all the Screwjob was a work, by some wild stretch of the imagination, none of that other stuff that preceded that, was. Neither of them would've been able to fully cooperate, I don't think.  And since then, Bret (while he wasn't on WWE's payroll) had plenty of opportunity to possibly set the record straight, not to mention all of the other wrestlers, managers and commentators that moved on and could've spilled the beans.  Can't believe its been 17 years though. I feel old as hell. I was 9 years old and 100% clearly remember how awkward that next night on Raw was.
