Mr. Sandow talks a lot of sense, what a nice guy.

So this was taped back when they thought they were gonna give him a push.

Her whole face seems different somehow. Like she had work done, or got scary skinny at some point. I dunno. (Just to be clear, I'm not talking about attractiveness or anything. It just surprised me that she looks so different now)

I think most of this was taped early-mid 2012, but some of it has been edited in later or reshot (Bryan stuff in particular)

So the Cena hate, did that start because everything that made his character fun was slowly taken away? I think when I started watching again the crowd was just starting to turn on him.
I think it was because they had him feud with Christian, Jericho, and Angle who were internet favorites.

Cena WM 21-22 was him winning every single match, and making Edge look weak.

I think it's a combination of him always winning over guys the crowd liked, him slowly dialing back the witty rapper stuff and starting up the RAPADOO speeches, and not really tweaking his character for longer than Austin's entire run in WWE.

Checked in this morning and it's Bryan/Punk at MitB 2012. When they're outside the ring in the beginning, they fight near a barricade, and I'm almost positive Luis Gonzalez (former AZ Diamondback) is in the front row.

MITB 2012 - I forgot that this Punk/Bryan title match with AJ refereeing existed, but I must have actively blocked the memory of this budget Tennessee Williams play from my mind.

I still like this match a lot

E: Man, 3/6 of these women are no longer with the company


E2: the WWE title MitB match is really odd - with 5 dudes including Kane and Show it really shouldn't work, and Cena wins at the end.. but there's actually a lot of enjoyable spots and some of the better timed/executed and most believable 'top of the ladder' spots

We didn't get the ultra-creepy segment from a week or so before where Jericho wrecked Chyna's hand, which was a little bit over the line even then. I mean, there's attitude, and there's attitude.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

It wasn't a cage match, but there was a Piper/Bruno match from...somewhere as another Network filler. It was pretty fun just for 60 year old Bruno darting around the ring kicking Piper's rear end.

I know there's a Piper/Bruno match at MSG on one of the Old School shows. Not sure if it's the same one. Piper blades like 30 seconds in and just bleeds and gets his rear end kicked all match before Bob Orton hits Bruno with the cast for a DQ. It was actually pretty good and Piper sells like a motherfucker.

Anybody know if they had more matches? Bonus if they're up on the network.
