As recently as a few weeks ago, all they had up were singles of a few of the popular ones (Rock, Fandango, The Game, etc.)

So now if you wanted to add rear end Man to your workout playlist, you can totally do that now.

they might've just added the single best album onto Spotify with WWE: The Music Vol. 3.

Edge N Christian's old theme, Taker's good theme, Dude Love, The Rock where he is trash talking the whole song, the better Steve Austin theme

e; can confirm they have Real Man's Man on there, but the I Don't Suck by Kurt Angle does not feature vocals, not gone through it all yet tho so it might be there

e2; snake bit, a classic

e; they DO have I Don't Suck, hahah

"When he’s not shoving WWE High’s freshmen — and a few of its teachers — into lockers, Brock Lesnar is pounding his opponents on the wrestling mat as the sole WWE High student to earn a victory over dominant rival school, Death Valley Prep. Lesnar is rarely seen in class, but according to his guidance counselor, Paul Heyman, he’s poised to emerge as “The Next Big Thing” in collegiate wrestling.

Getting into wrestling again after a 16 year hiatus and just watched wm17. Holy poo poo that was incredible. Is that generally considered the peak of that era? Ive never seen a crowd so hot. Their reaction as the rock kept kicking out over and over again was amazing. I was blown away. What else should I watch? Where does cena peak?

I suppose it could be argued that Cena peaks at Money in the Bank 2011 at the same time as Punk. That's a great match to watch regardless.

Mania 17 is widely considered one of the best PPVs of all time, yes. Cena's peak is pretty recent, his match at Money in the Bank 2011 is amazing, he and CM Punk had incredible chemistry together. There's also a match from RAW a couple of years ago that is probably one of his best, you can find it on YouTube, not sure about the Network. It's from the 25th of February 2013.

I find it hard to pin point Cena's peak. Its probably better to find his best feuds. CM Punk is probably his best feud. Also check out his recent Lesnar stuff going back to the 2012 match, his feud with Batista, and his matches with HBK.

I also really like some of the stuff he did with Orton but there seems to be a ton of it.

Also, HBK vs Undertaker at Wrestlemania 25 and 26 are must see wrestling

That's the absolute peak. That event would have drawn 200,000 in a building large enough. Peak Cena is hard to say, it's not WM 21, business wise it was WM 28 but that's the Rock's show, he loses at MITB 2011 but it's kind of peak Cena in a way so go with that.

Cena's peak is ECW One Night Stand 2006 in my book. Money In The Bank 2011 is great too, it's almost like ONS2006 part 2. Pretty much, it's always fun to boo Cena and root for the underdog. And I like Cena, just not as the superface.

Cena was pretty great in the title match in the Royal Rumble this year though. It's just that his character has been coasting forever.

Just want to note, house show Randy is best Randy. Last time he did Smackdown in Des Moines he was in the dark main, and stopped mid beatdown to get on the mic and cut a promo on how much he hated being stuck in town thanks to the blizzard outside before belting his opponent with the mic. Totally fired up and 100% not the slow-rear end lazy bastard he plays on TV.

He'd be reaching for the tag, Bryan would get cut off and he'd just flip his poo poo on the apron. It was great to see him doing something other than being boring in Tampa.
