tweet my meat posted:Drew McIntyre had such a good theme, but I honestly like his new one quite a bit. Bagpipes are awesome and I loved his takeover entrance with the live bagpipes. It's everything after the bagpipes that is poo poo. Like, take them away and it's basically Generic CAW Theme #6. It might actually just be one of Big Cass's 8 heel songs.

I know it would never be licensed but I'm still annoyed to this day that Legacy didn't use Queen - Princes of the Universe. Even more appropriate now that it's the WWE Universe!

It's actually easier to figure this stuff out by looking at the most notoriously awful workers in history and who they wrestled. Before he was Nailz, Kevin tagged with Buddy Rose in AWA, where he had tag matches against Nick Bockwinkel, Curt Hennig, and a whole program vs. the Rockers. He's also wrestled Bret. Giant Gonzalez wrestled some of the most talented wrestlers of all time, including Flair, Savage, and Muta. He also wrestled Nailz in Japan once, which must have been worse than Sid vs. the Nightstalker. Not to be outdone, Great Khali has of course wrestled a bunch of really talented people, but most notably Rey, Regal, Cesaro, Bryan, Michaels, and Flair! One of his matches with Bryan resulted in, for me personally, that old cliche that whenever your parents walk in while you're watching wrestling, it will be something so embarrassingly bad you wish they'd just caught you jerking off instead. Harley Race's first break in the business was driving Happy Humphrey around, and he says he wrestled him a few times. Haystacks Calhoun was a big star and wrestled a ton of people considered all-time greats, although it's hard to oppose, like, Killer Kowalski to Daniel Bryan to measure pure in-ring talent, as it was a very different era. Plowboy Frazier was kind of a later Haystacks and also wrestled a lot of talented guys, both in territories and the WWF. He and Hillbilly Jim were a team vs. the Hart Foundation at one point, and I think he's wrestled the Rock'n'Roll.

Enough silliness on my part, you should watch the match, it's at the same PPV with the Russo/Hogan shoot double-cross. gently caress, I think Judy Bagwell On A Pole is ALSO at that PPV? The stupidest loving PPV of all time.

I think Gonzales was notably worse than Khali. Gonzales/El Gigante vs. Flair has to be the biggest gap ever. We are talking about the GOAT vs. the WOAT here. Though if Beau James wrestled half the people he claims to have wrestled there might be a case for it. But first you have to make a case for Beau James actually being a pro wrestler.

Because at the end of the day amount of merch and how prominently displayed is based on how much they like you/the size of your push so it's meaningless unless someone they hate is selling boatloads. Faces tend to sell more merch than heels in the overall stats but considering Cena is a merch machine a heel run with "You Should Give Up" shirts or something would go gangbusters.
