If DDP doesn't at least do one cutter at the HoF, I'll be disappointed.

What I get is that it just really wasn't a good match. DDP was already an older wrestler and probably not a guy they were sticking with long term, his way of scripting matches to a T is something everyone hated doing, they weren't in the habit of making WCW guys look good, he was stuck with the Undertaker who is one of those old school guys and IIRC a big advocate of "we shouldn't have to make any of them look good" and stuff. Just a huge set of bad circumstances.

Whatever stupid booking decisions they made back then (and there was more than a few), they can never take away that pop after DDP/The Stalker took the mask off.

HHH was a guy who was driven but was never that cool or creative. He had a bunch of friends who were talented and cool and he used it to leverage a longer and more profitable career. He really is the bono of pro wrestling.

Aw, I wouldn't be that harsh on them. I think all three are talented workers, even if Big E is going to someday die doing a big guy dive. I will say that they haven't had a compelling angle in forever so I wouldn't be that bummed about them not getting a match at Mania, though.

It's kinda hard to have a compelling angle after you absolutely killed your entire division for over a year

Considering they're definitely going to bring Hogan back soon, putting him in a segment with three black wrestlers to prove he's totally not racist is unsurprising.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.



Rocks gonna be at raw tonight but propably not on camera as he's there to shoot the aj/paige match (with tessa blanchard and rosita) for his dumb movie after they go off the air


Also they keep calling the AJ character "the diva's champion" and dont mention her name :laffo:

I'm not fully understanding how this Paige movie is happening unless it's the WWE taking a jab at Paige and this is going to be like the Self Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior

Or is it independent of the WWE but somehow they're willing to let it happen or something ?

Obviously Dwayne really wants Paige to succeed for some reason???? Is this the equivalent of Triple H protecting his indie guys, like, instead it's The Rock protecting Paige from dismissal?

From what I've seen Paige and her family have had almost zero involvement with the project so I'm guessing Rock saw the documentary, decided to make it into a drama film and the project was already too far underway when Paige turned out to have coke filled holes in her brain.
