I like how they went out of their way not to mention that Roman is related to the Rock.

It's so hilarious that the Red Rooster had issues with Seth Rollins and his wrestling Terry Taylor, former head of talent relations of TNA, knows what's up about talent

This doc has more build for Orton/Reigns than any Raw or Smackdown did.

Why didn't Paul say that the only thing that could stop Roman getting to the top was Brock Lesnar?

For some reason it refused to move on from the section with Heyman talking about Roman no matter how often I reloaded it - that's the first time I've encountered that type of problem with the network.

The Shield are wonderful and while I wish they could have stayed together forever I'm glad that they're all great and they're all doing well and they all get a cool documentary out of it

When Paul gave the whole explanation about the Roman/ Orton match, all that I could think is why don't they just let Heyman write WWE. that one paragraph he spoke made me more interested in that match than literally a month worth of build on Raw.

Because he would be good at it, and has "differences" with the Vince/HHH/Steph creative team. He likes just being able to walk out, and talk for two days a week and then be on his merry way.

If Paul Heyman was on the writing team, he would have been gone already. Paul's role now is the best one for him if you like Paul because he'll actually be around for a length of time.

They did let him write WWE, at the start of the brand split he was in charge of Smackdown, which started getting and maintaining higher ratings than RAW in an incredibly short amount of time even though it had a lovely timeslot.

I don't know, Heyman spoke about it in an interview with...I think Jericho? I don't know how much crossover there was in demographics but it certainly seemed impressive to me.

I agree with this 10 years ago when they moved time slots. NBC alone with My Name Is Earl, The Office, 30 Rock and Scrubs was enough to keep me tuned in for 2 hours. Now Thursday nights are horrible...

Network TV in general is horrible now but yeah, I was specifically talking about when Heyman was pulling off ridiculous ratings as the lead writer of Smackdown. I think Survivor was still super hot and on thursdays back then as well.

Watching this first Monday Night Wars episode, I know it's a WWE production and very much a "written by the winners" thing, but it's still pretty great viewing so far.

There's only so many things you can say about Bill Watts being awful at everything, but I would absolutely watch 2 hours of "Trashing WCW era Bill Watts" hosted by Paul Heyman.

Watching the top 50 finishers dvd thing. On the one hand, Regal putting over how each move was deadly is great. On the other, Matt striker tries to do the same.

Wooord that's cool. They shill the network so much my brain turns off during those segments I guess. I wonder which episodes will go up, pretty exciting either way. the WCW undercard had some of the best matches of all time.

I was pretty surprised when the narrator said that Vince McMahon creations weren't getting over in reference to a majority of the new generation era.

It's long been known that was when their business was at its worst so they don't mind crapping on it. Vince isn't as strict at hiding his failures as it's made out to be.

I'll never get over the story of WCW giving Scott and Kevin bigger contracts for more money because they thought they were going to play Fake Razor and Fake Diesel.
