Back in the attitude era, I was so out of the wrestling news loop that I was liegtimately shocked when Shane showed up on Nitro lol. Hell, that was probably mainstream news back then but I only paid attention to the televised product.

I think I was 15 when that happened and I was shocked. But, I also didn't get my first computer until I was 13 so I didn't really search the internet for wrestling rumors. lol

It looks like the WWE might be doing a Shane McMahon DVD in 2016. I'd be all over that. As a non-wrestler he was top flight entertainment.

I have no issues with Triple H having the belt right now. Lots of injuries precipitated that.

Loved the crowd reaction to AJ Styles but....the guy is super, super tiny. He looked like not even half a man compared to Reigns. Just not believable as a main eventer in the WWE for me.

Bigger than Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, CM Punk or Daniel Bryan but nope to small to be a main eventer lmao

That was the old attitude that guys held to that caused ECW guys to remain there too, Lawler made fun of Taz for his size a guy like AJ became the best star TNA had while in the Vince control he probably would of topped out like Christian had.

I've never seen AJ next to those guys. I'd be shocked barring more massive injuries that AJ reaches main event status. He's too small.

Sandow was released today. I wonder what he did for them to take pure money and throw it away.

Brand split seems to be well received across the board. I must say, I enjoyed both shows a lot more, hopefully it continues.

Sadly yes, it does seem that way. If anyone is alive, are you looking forward to Sumemrslam?

I think the story lines behind Bliss and Banks is mildly interesting. I honestly geeked out with the RAW opening this past week. That was top not entertainment.

Monday Night RAW in London tonight. Should be a good show, usually are when taped internationally.

For me it was kinda meh. Not liking the setup between Nia and Rhonda

As is Rousey to start a family after WM

Yep, just read that the other day. Sounds like it's going to be Rousey, Lynch and Charlotte at Wrestlemania.

I saw him two years ago in a triple threat with AJ Styles and Dolph Zigler. Even those two guys couldn't make him look good. Nothing has really changed.
