In the final days of the Bikertaker, he won a match that got him the right to any kind of match he wanted. Rather than go with the title match as McMahon figured, Undertaker instead chose a Buried Alive match against Vince. All in all it made sense and gave us a nice Vince beating before Kane showed up, attacked Undertaker and ultimately killed off the biker gimmick.

You just reminded me of the final Taker/Kane feud, which included a Buried Alive match in which Undertaker lost because The Nexus randomly showed up and shoved him in the grave for absolutely zero explained reason, and a HIAC match that Taker lost because he was blinded by a magic flashlight inside the urn.

This feud, by the way, was all part of Kane's elaborate and ridiculously complicated plan over something like 13 years to finally destroy Taker, and then they tagged a few times a couple years later like it was no big deal.

Yeah, this deserves mention. Not just for... well, look at it... but because of the timing.

This is right after WWE invested months in making Big Show their top face at the cost of Bryan's push. When they tried to co-opt the "YES!" chants into being Big Show's thing. When various PPV main events focused on him even if he wasn't in the match. When he main-evented Survivor Series to zero interest and afterwards sold a concussion on Raw for a week before simply vanishing all together.

Then he's dancing in a diaper.

Then the next time we see him, he's supposed to be the next big threat to Brock Lesnar.

Oh god I had wiped that RAW from my memory, that was the same RAW were Bryan was kidnapped by the Wyatt Family (for a day since he showed up on Smackdown in a parking lot) but after he had been kidnapped the Bella Twins were fawning over special guest Michael Strahan. I'm just going to quote myself from that RAW thread.

Speaking of video replay, anyone remember the weird intermission from Wrestlemania 7? They spent like 10 minutes on Vince hosting a debate between George Steinbrenner and Paul McGuire over the pros and cons of instant replay ending with the Bushwackers in referee shirts watching trying to watch an instant replay of the whole segment. It was so dry and unfunny that they never played it again. Not on VHS or DVD and I'm guessing it's not on the Network either.

There was some NFL controversy at the time which involved video replays so WWE took a stab at it in their usual manner, that's all I can remember.

Even without the dumb ending that match stank to high hell.

The joke is that old-timey vibrators had fake rubber hands and stuff on the part that you used on your cooch, and Mae's is so loose she lost one in there and it came out during the Mark Henry skit. Of course, they never explained the joke and everyone was confused, except Vince/whoever wrote the skit.

The stupid tone deaf war crime altered reality angle with the bad photoshopped real politicans that Chikara did during Quacks mid life crisis.

I would just be like "Chikara" in general but I'll acknowledge some people like the product, but that whole thing was so weird and out there even the true believers were scratching their heads.

The altered reality stuff was more fan speculation because they figured something big was about to happen at that big iPPV and weren't sure what. Otherwise, yeah, Ashes was pretty dumb.

There are parts about it I liked, I respected the ambition to try it and it actually ended really well, but it was a self-serious mess that dragged on for-loving-ever. By the time it started to get interesting towards the end, people were just tired of it and wanted them to do wrestling matches and stuff. At the same time, they DID have wrestling matches for the replacement promotions (Wrestling is Cool, Wrestling is Intense, etc.), but they were heatless affairs that nobody came to see. You had a year of story with no wrestling alongside a year of wrestling with no story and it just wasn't worth the effort.

Then they released Ashes of Chikara, a feature-length version of the storyline using the YouTube videos they made and other footage. On paper it looked like it could work by streamlining the angle and filling in any blanks.They seemed serious about it enough that they even took out an ad in some Dark Horse comics that month. What they released was an incomprehensible clusterfuck of some of the worst acting, with important plot points completely missing, making it even more confusing than it originally was. Even the people in the Chikara forum felt cheated out of their money.

It didn't help that they tried building towards this right after their worst iPPV, which was their creative low-point by far and killed all of the company's momentum dead. This includes having the Young Bucks as tag champs and wasting them on a match with an out-of-shape 1-2-3 Kid and a broken-down Marty Jannetty. For best two out of three, too.
