And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
I thought there was no way I could vote for Kane until I read how Nash lost the belt.

I had to begrudgingly vote for Kane. I'm definitely voting Nash for the run that started with him beating Goldberg's streak and ended with the Finger Poke of Doom.

Lost it to Hiroshi Hase (who i am pumped to vote for)

After his match with the boss he is relagated to the B and C shows like a jabrone

Khalis history is much more impressive he beat all these people

Batista, Brett Major, Brian Major, Chavo Guerrero, Chris Masters, Dave Taylor, Deuce and Domino, Eugene, Finlay, Funaki, Jamie Noble, Jimmy Wang Yang, Kane, Kenny Dykstra, Mark Henry, Matt Hardy, Montel Vontavious Porter, and Shannon Moore.

The WCW International World Heavyweight Championship existed a little less than a year - less time than between WCW breaking away from the NWA and ECW breaking away from the NWA.

The best thing about Khali as champion is that gif of him holding up the title while there's this one kid in the audience who looks HORRIFIED at this turn of events.

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.

That chamber match is probably better than anything from Steiner's reign but
1. HHH just being awarded the title was a nonsense and
2. Big Poppa Pump is my hook up

Scott Steiner as the mega-heel champ was the last bit of hope in a dying WCW. Triple H being awarded the WHC was a major early step in a hopeless era.

Watching the first triple h whc run at the moment and just got up to katie vick. Aside from it obviously being horrible it was stupid because kane cuts this big impassioned promo in the ring about what really happened and then trips comes out to say 'actually you were drunk and the police found beer cans in the car and you hosed her corpse' and that's it. Like was triple h telling the truth in which case kane is a horrible bastard undeserving of the fans love, or has he just made this up out of whole cloth, we'll never know and kane never gets to produce the real autopsy report or whatever

Their match at no mercy was by the numbers as gently caress but kane is mega over and the ending where trips is on the ramp holding the sledgehammer with a look of realisation at how close he came to getting killed by kane is very good

When Kane was starting his unmasked monster heel run, there was a time when he Tombstoned Linda McMahon. A week later, he cut a promo about how she was screaming no, but he knows from experience that when women say no, they really mean yes. Me and my friend looked to each other and were like, "So... did he just admit to the whole Katie Vick thing?"
