OneThousandMonkeys posted:He was so bad that 2/3rds of the way into his short career they made his actual terribleness his entire character, especially when he became the GM, so he added nonsense decisions to his repertoire, like the ending of Unforgiven 2008 where Chris Jericho somehow became champion after being destroyed by Shawn Michaels earlier in the evening in a street fight. He quit.  Dude couldn't be on screen most of the time like they wanted him because he had the occasional seizure. That's why he left during the that one episode of ECW.

I liked Mike Adamle, and it would've been great if he had 100% been written to be bumbling and semi-incompetent. It was more humorous to me than than most of their comedy segments.

That one time when he left the ring and went back up the entrance ramp for multiple do-overs of his entrance is a classic.

I'd loved Mike Adamle's attempt to get John Cena and Mickie James to party with him and Nitro in Tijuana.

Adamle definitely wasn't acting or faking it when he was mic'ed up. He does the sports on NBC in Chicago and he makes a lot of the same mistakes when he's reading from a teleprompter.

I felt bad for him. It seemed like he tried hard enough, it was just another retarded hiring by WWE. They'll never get over the fact they're not "mainstream."

The kayfabe reason was the breakup of the Steiners in WCW.

Don't know if people cared, I didn't. Edge and Christian I don't think have been together for a long time, I'm not sure they even teamed again after the split up toward the beginning of the decade. And I think people could be made to care since they are both credible singles competitors, because of how long it's been, and because they are I think still associated with a golden age of tag teams. WWE doesn't give a poo poo about tag teams though.

They had one tag match together after Survivor Series '04. Maven was acting general manager for the night (he won the right in a match at the PPV), and booked them together because he was a huge fan and wanted to see them together one more time. He also gave himself a World Title match, because if you're an active wrestler given authority and you're NOT using it to give yourself a World Title match, then you're doing it wrong.

The Hardys reunion was big stuff for about 2 months. They were wrestling on both shows every week and were crowbarred into whatever tag feuds were going on (Londrick vs MNM I think?). Edge and Christian have occasionally tagged as heels but only as two singles wrestlers.

A E&C reunion isn't out of the question, considering they're both faces and they're both on the same show now. Of course, that'd require them to do something interesting with tag wrestling. Though I could see rejoining them so they could have a TLC tag match at, well, TLC.
