Vader and Sid both looked abysmal in the ring. Not really sure what you guys are getting at with all this "do this every week" talk.

Vader's appearance was better than most big men in their prime. That's not hyperbole. Hell, most of the big men in WWE NOW can't move around the ring as well as he did. Was he as good as he used to be? No. What was great about it was that he moved better than any 400+ lb. 57 year old with two artificial knees has any right to. And he was willing to leave his feet.

As for Sid, yeah. I was hoping for at least a chokeslam.

What big men on the current WWE roster can't move as well as current Vader? Did you not notice him waddling around the ring at what can only really be described as a glacial pace?

Don't get me wrong. I was a huge fan of the prolific Vader, but I have absolutely no desire to see him in his current state, and there was nothing impressive about his latest Monday night performance. Nothing. He was OK at VERY best, but that shouldn't net him a pass for television time in which he was shitting on a current talent.

I feel like some of you are letting nostalgia get to you a bit too much. This sort of thing is in direct disagreement with the long-standing sentiment that the new generation will never get as over as the older generations. Herald them. Honor them. Mention them in conversations...but get them the fuck out of the ring unless they are still bringing it for real.
