You could have given my 8 million guesses and I wouldn’t have come up with the person in the run in.
Yup you had to have been there!

It was actually a test run for the evil Vince that ended up winning the Monday night wars.

Bret/Owen/Vince/Savage/Tatanka were all heels in Memphis but in WWE were babyfaces.

This was back when uswa/wwe was doing the heel/face dynamic like the grande Americanos are in aaa/wwe.

He hasn’t exceeded mine, lol. That guy just gets over.

I still think the Youngest Men Alive and Dalton Castle could do the same if they got consistent clock.
I love Dalton. I always wonder what he could have been if not for that back injury years ago. He’s always been a pretty good wrestler, even after the injury, with tons of charisma but was never able to get back in track after the injury

Yep, he’s never been the same since his injury. His crazy *** personality and charisma jumps off the screen when he gets more than one appearance every couple months, though.

In the heart of WrestleMania season, and four years after he left AEW, he still can’t stop talking about leaving AEW while also saying nothing of substance.

“We’re not going to talk about it” yet he can’t stop talking about it.

Tommy Dreamer said on Busted Open he believes the person Randy Orton was talking to on the phone was Vince McMahon. Well that would be something.

The brawling Birds might be the worst name for a halfway decent tag team that I’ve ever heard.

He looks to be in the best shape he’s been in a long time so that’s encouraging.
Still don’t feel great about him back. I’ve said before I wish he was getting a final run in WWE right now but if his contract isn’t done yet, I guess it get it.

Maybe Meltzer was talking about Summerslam a couple of years ago when half the stadium was empty.

Really thought Jericho was heading for a final WWE run. He's always been good at reinventing himself so guess we'll see what happens this go around.

Makes you wonder what happened everyone was saying his deal was up in 2025 - maybe TK added time for whatever reason but when I saw the spoiler I figured it wasn’t an April fools joke bc they’d have Jericho at WM if he had signed.
