It's stating the obvious but the fact WCW relied so heavily on massaging the egos of it's bigger name ageing draws over younger rising talents meant that it was no surprise that the likes of Jericho, Guerero and Benoit and even Wight would jump ship. With Paul Wight like Khali, there is really only so much you can do with a giant before the storylines start becoming tedious and perhaps it was time for him to move on. The other three never got the praise they deserved by WCW and it's a shame because I was pumped when Benoit won the belt but then deflated instantly when he left. Just shows you how stupid people were behind the scenes to not be in tune with what people wanted.


I guess that then justifies the push Daniel Bryan received post 2010 though I've never taken to him: WWE listening to the fans. But I'd have much rather watched Daniel Bryan v Brock Lesnar at WM 31 than Reigns v Lesnar, worst WM main event since WM 2000 and Rollins cashing in was its only saving grace.

Really? You can't really believe this.

What was great about the match then? From what I saw it was just big brute throws around some dude for 20 minutes, Rollins cashes in and wins.

maybe if I had seen it at home it might have been more entertaining but it felt tedious as did the card. But perhaps I was deflated that Sting lost and the fact I was sunburnt and dehydrated, who knows.

Big brute throws around some dude for twenty minutes. Dude takes all big brute can throw and doesn't get put away. Some dude starts mounting some serious offense, potentially about to overcome big brute before he gets snaked by a slimy opportunist.

It's a classic wrestling story, man. Plus, it was brutal as fuck. Go watch it with commentary or something.

Reigns vs Lesnar was incredible.
