You'll likely get a PPV in the next 18 months.

So what was the last Wrestlemania that went exactly as planned? The last few years must seem like some sort of nightmare to Vince. You know what, never mind, there is no way he considered 28 and 29 to be failures. remusclaw fucked around with this message at 20:20 on Mar 27, 2016 |

willus posted:i just went and found this (backlash 2006) because it sounds extremely excellent and at the start of the show they have a recap of vince announcing the match, where he referred to shane as "the product of my semen" I don't remember if it's in the show material or not but if not, find bit where Shane and Vince visit a church so Vince can cut a promo on God.

I'm still impressed with Michael Cole for taking it right some time back. Everyone seems to fall on their back or side now, Cole took it flat and face down.

El Gallinero Gros posted:Cole takes a lot of guff, some of it deserved, but he's the ultimate company man I will always defend Cole. "Heel Cole" was horrendous, and him vs Lawler went on 2 or 3 PVs too long and they completely hosed up what should have been the blow offmatch. But it was cool at the beginning, and I liked the 'Cole Mine'. Also, I blame Vince yelling in his ear or most, if not all of the stupid poo poo he says. Watch Beast in the East to see how much better he is without a crazy man yelling at him for 3 hours.

Todd Pettengill did an interview recently where he revealed that when he left WWE, Vince asked him if he knew anyone to replace him, and Todd recommended Michael Cole since they had worked together in radio and Todd knew Cole was a huge wrestling nerd Imagine the alternate universe where Todd Pettengill has been WWE's lead commentator for over a decade

He just didn't have anything at all to distinguish him from the rest of the roster. He was "Tough Enough Guy," when every other Tough Enough winner was allowed an opportunity to develop some sort of character.

Maven is cool when I was a kid I got a Polaroid in the ring with him and Nidia at a flea market in cincinnati That was the first night charlie hass worked after his brother died. I remember him saying something like "my brothers lookin down on me in heaven, but were still on for this title match, so lets hear it for my new man Dlo Brown!!" as hes choking back tears. Then jamal and rosey hosed him up.

This talk of Heel Cole made me look up just how long it lasted, and it was so much longer than I thought. It started on the first episode of NXT, February 23 2010, and basically ended when Lawler had his heart attack, September 10 2012. Two and a half years of that poo poo. Augh.
