Yes the Nexus and Batista Thumbs Down were incredible moments. Funny enough I think the Nexus was Barrett's peak as a wrestler. He was the most over heel in the company and then then they pretty much killed it. Then he formed the Core and the rest is history.

They should have Braun Strowman running rampant through the backstage and every time he does something out of control a Legend should be shown appearing from behind a wall shaking his head with little to no explanation.

They should start at the Manhattan Centre with this set then go over to Barclays for a segment and change the set at MC to te Big Red Letter set, then over to BC for the next set, and keep changing throughout the night with the relevant guys turning up throughout the night.

1. Vince steps down from WWE and announces his football league

2. Vince announces his football league

3. WrestleMania 35 is announced for NYC (my guess is still Citi Field in Queens to host)

The only Hogan Raw moment that springs to mind was Hogan and Rock challenging each other for Mania. But the match itself was the part everyone remembers.

Beyond that, he was on the SmackDown brand in 2002 and 2003.

Yeah, in the early 2000s it was a weird time, but in the 90s I can't recall if he fought Yokozuna or Giant Gonzales on RAW, don't really remember him being a big part. HBK and Bret Hart were kind of showcased.

Been watching Raw from the beginning for the past few nights. After Rob Bartlett leaves and Bobby Heenan takes his place on commentary he starts doing this thing where mid-match the camera cuts to him with a television on top of his monitor and a remote in his hand as he channel surfs and Vince starts yelling at him to stop. It's so fucking random it's hilarious.

Bartlett's commentary aged so poorly. I mean I don't think anybody thought it was good anyway since he didn't last long but there's so much blatant racism lol.

From what I can tell Hogan had 8 matches on Raw in its entire history. Obviously made more appearances but it’s a drop in the ocean in the history of the show.

As his run goes on he seems like he gets really bored, too. It's like Vince told him "Hey, cut back on some of the inappropriate shit" so he just stopped trying altogether. His last couple episodes he seems to just kinda mumble some responses when Vince tries to get him involved.

Also, they definitely realized it was a bad idea very early on. Just a few episodes in they started going really gimmicky with him. Including having him do an entire episode pretending to be Elvis.

Hogan saved Brother Bruti after that no-good Million Dollar Man Ted Dibiase smashed his face with IRS's briefcase, brotherjackdude. Brother Bruti had just had reconstructive surgery too, jack.

This led to Hulk Hogan/Brutus Beefcake vs Money Inc at WrestleMania IX and eventually Hogan winning the title out of nowhere, dude.

My only problem with the women's rumble is that they're probably gonna shorten the intervals in the men's match as to not let the show go too long. "Equality" and such.
