Maybe because outside of you, nobody will recognise the names of former WWWF US Champs? Where as the likes of Austin, Dusty, etc still mean something in this day and age.

Seriously, apply logic instead of trying to constantly prove your wrestling knowledge.

But... But... But, I need affirmation! I need people to think I'm cool! I need to show how I can look at wikipedia while I post so it seems like I have a vast knowledge of the biz!


...please pay attention to me.

I don't look at Wikipedia. I looked at old wrestling magazines.

I can only assume you have a library that none of us could ever hope to aspire to.

That's right. It was passed to me by my father and I continued on.

Why not resurrect the TV Championship instead? Make it where it can be defended every week on RAW and often on Superstars.

I don't think WWE ever had a Television Championship. If they do have a Television Championship, I hope they do not use the NWA and WCW's lineage, like they did the U.S. title, despite the fact WWE had their own U.S. title in the 1960's and 1970's.

That's a little unfair. I don't think he pulls the info from wiki at all, I think it's his own knowledge. I just object to the way he tries to shoehorn irrelevant information into a thread just to prove it. Most the time this info the average fan already knows, the rest we don't need to.

And as for thinking it makes him look "cool", I doubt it. Pretty sure everyone here knows that wrestling isn't cool and hasn't been for a long time (if ever IMO).
