Okay, what is your unpopular opinion? Don't be scared - just one reply and never look back. Is it maybe that Benoit should still be remembered as a wrestler, Cena is the smartest worker out there or Santino is the best mic worker in the business today?

Type it but don't say it out loud - you might just feel dirty...in a sexual way.

my unpopular opinion. Attitude era was the best thing ever, cut the PG crap and go back to what made you bigger than ever in the first place.
This is a wrestling show, why should it be PG? Nothing about wrestling should be PG, Wrestling is a violent sport, why take away from that?

Kids were watching WWF during the attitude era too, it was Tv-14. It doesn't matter what the rating is, kids will still watch it and attitude era is a prime example. WWE will always have a fanbase no matter how good or shitty the show is, but their biggest fanbase is when they are at their best

Please allow the most stand out forum poster to give his infinite wisdom on this matter. This thread is awesome, good thinking Darkside way to be original and use your brain, very well done. My unpopular opinion is I think the people that bring up the PG bullshit really don't know what the f they are talking about. They are probably between the ages of 8-16 and still have a bed time. They don't understand how business and sponsors work in this world. They have no idea how much money it cost to run a live television show.They don't understand that pro rasslin is geared towards kids, it has always been for the kids unless your taking about the 1930 pro wrestling. To the people that bring up PG bullsh*t they don't realize they started watching wrestling when they were a kid, not in your 30's. They don't understand parents choose what there kids watch for the most part and I for one wouldn't want my 10 year old to see some grown man having intimate relations with a f'n dead person or let them hear foul words and see tities on a tv program. Kids grow up to fast these days and need good ole fashion family programing the WHOLE FAMILY CAN ENJOY TOGETHER. Most importantly they don't f'n understand the concept "IF YOU DON'T F'N LIKE IT, CHANGE THE F'N CHANNEL." WORD

Here's an unpopular opinion for you all: I think that Undertaker's more realistic 'American Bad Ass/Big Evil' gimmick was far better than the supernatural 'Phenom'. The whole dark-lord with super-powers thing worked well in the cartoonish 90's but in this day and age it's just a bit silly.

*takes off nostalgia goggles* The Attitude Era is hideously overrated and - apart from maybe half of the era's PPVs - the wrestling was even more atrocious than it is in today's WWE. Watch any Raw or Smackdown from the era and you'll find it an ADHD-laden experience with crash TV everywhere, shit matches, garbage wrestling and the same old catchphrases/segments being repeated week in week out.

I'm not a fan of most of the ECW original guys like Sandman, Tommy Dreamer, Sabu, Stevie Richards, Rhino etc, or the garbage wrestling matches they held. I only ever watch old ECW for stuff like three way dances and guys like Tajiri, Super Crazy, Psicosis, Jericho, Benoit, Mysterio, Guerrero, Little Guido, Jerry Lynn, RVD and so on. And a lot of those guys also did some of the greatest wrestling I've ever seen on a mainstream American promotion - in WCW. (even during its darkest times)

ROH will not only never make it big, but may even start to fail as a promotion a few years down the line. Their main problem is that any time they build up a legit awesome wrestler that actually has some great mic skills, they seem to get snapped up by WWE or TNA. Having lost Bryan Danielson, Nigel McGuinness, Tyler Black and Austin Aries in the space of a year, not to mention having no previous champions left in the company, (except Homicide) they've undoubtably lost a lot of "star power" in their roster which is a pretty worrying trend. Other indies like Chikara and CZW don't seem to be as affected though, since they'll probably always have their ultrapopular mainstays. (Ultramantis Black, Nick Gage etc)

Though glad to see people are agreeing with me about the Attitude Era not being as good as people think it was.

As for my my unpopular opinion, I prefer Bull Nakano and Awesome Kong over the combined Laycool and Beautiful People.

And I think getting rid of the Diva's title over the Women's title was a good idea. Pretty much because with the exception of a few, I don't want them to be mixed up with legit women legends.

Guerrero was the man in the 90's when he was teamed up with Art Barr in AAA, and his singles matches in ECW and WCW... but, I honestly don't remember much about his WWE career, except from his Wrestlemania XX title win and that one time he bladed like crazy:

what's with people bashing attitude era? 3 years ago everyone complained that wwe should go back to attitude, now its cool to bash it, wtf?

yes the attitude era has shit matches, but seriously you should know better as WWF is about entertainment and not wrestling, go watch ROH if you want wrestling. WWF will never be famous for its wrestling, but always for its entertainment, something attitude era and post attitude era provided, heck even the new generation era was entertaining, this PG crap is complete bullshit. I wouldn't mind if WWE went back to post-attitude, atleast they were still entertaining.

quit bashing attitude era, it was the best thing ever, EVER! Hogan did make WWF lots of money in the 80s, but attitude era made even more with DX, Rock, Austin etc... and why? cause people loved it, cause it was entertaining.

I will say it again, wrestling is a violent 'sport', it should not be PG. Kids was WWF in attitude era, Vince knows this. He doesn't need to make the show PG to get kids, there were shitload of kids watching attitude era... just look at the merchandise sales, all the action figures, video games, shirts. I remember every other kid in my school wore an Austin 3:16 shirt, who say's kids weren't watching attitude era?

WWE going PG is not gonna help kids, they will still pick up violence/swearing etc from movies, music, games etc...

The thing is, it didn't. It made them ratings, but not a lot of advertisers, how TV shows make money, didn't want to be apart of. That's why Mattel, a big name toy company, now makes WWE Figures instead of Jakks, who only did it because they were a no name company at the time to WWE's big name.


WWE going PG is not gonna help kids, they will still pick up violence/swearing etc from movies, music, games etc...
But it is going to help the WWE as parents will see it's okay for letting their children watch because they don't swear and do too violent things.

Every generation did that. 80s made new fans and alienated the 70s fans. Then 90s to 80s and 2000s to 90s, and now 2010s to 2000s. In 2020, you'll hear people complain comparing them to this generation.

This is true. Quite a large number of attitude era supporters will try to convince everyone that the wrestling back then was much better, but it really wasn't. A bit of claret and more "extreme" bumps made cage matches a lot more exciting, but that's about it really.

Sounds like classic nostalgia filter to me, mate. Have you tried watching any attitude era stuff lately? I have, and I really wish I hadn't.... there were literally tons of terrible gimmicks and wrestlers and storylines I had forgotten about. Vince Russo and Ed Ferrara WERE employed by WWE for most of this era, remember.

And while DX, Rock, Austin etc are among the most fondly remembered characters ever in wrestling, I think it had more to do with these guys' naturally charisma a lot more than TV-14 and innuendo. A lot of the popular guys from the era were well loved before the attitude era. (and after, for the ones who still wrestle(d)... even into PG!)

As much as I find Vince's reasons for PG terribly condescending, ("kids and women make up x% of our audience") I don't really see what this has to do with anything. How is going back to the attitude era a good business move in any way, shape or form?

Your unbelievably ridiculous reasons are the reason why we have school shootings and so many young kids on meds these days.

I bet you really think john 3:16 really means I just whooped your ass. I bet you have no idea what it really means. Going PG WILL help kids, they don't need sex,drugs and ultra violence on a fictional TV program to think its cool. What's really cool is understanding pro rasslin is just a show. You obliviously don't have kids and your life experience is minimal but for once try to understand kids need to be kids and they sure don't need grown up problems in there life, they have enough problems with bullies and if they are wearing name-brand clothing so they can be in the "cool" group at school.

I agree. I'm a girl and I can't stand to see women wrestle now. Chicks like trish and lita at least knew how to wrestle. The "divas" now are purely for show except maybe the glamazon. I leave the room for a bathroom break when a divas match is on. And with the new nxt show, they did a good thing putting it online because I dont think anyone was watching it on tv. but thats imo

Good point.I LOVEEEE the Divas but some Divas like Eve or Maryse with no backround of wrestling should not be pushed as a wrestler. It isn't fair to the other women who have a passion for wrestling. It all goes how a certain person looks in the WWE. For example, on NXT, they had the Diva rookies sit down and tell alittle about themselves. Kaitlyn, Naomi, and Aksona did not say anything about having a passion for wrestling. The only people that said that they have a passion for wrestling is Jamie, Maxine, and AJ. Kaitlyn is horrible in the ring but is hot but WWE still wants to make her into a wrestler because she looks a certain way. What ever happend to Divas like Mickie James having a passion for wrestling and not going on WWE Diva Search to become a model.

they do bring ratings some people tune into wwe to see the diva's... ok that was really hard to say the only divas that i would say have brought ratings into the wwe in the past 10 years is lita, trish, and right now i would have to say lay-cool. I really want to see them get their asses kicked by natalya and thats the exact reason why lay-cool is bringing ratings in...

Unpopular opinion number 1: Dino Bravo was a better World's Strongest Man than either Ken Patera or Mark Henry.
Unpopular opinion number 2: ECW was highly overrated, not very successful, and was just a cult company (a far inferior version of WCCW in my opinion) that lucked out in timing
Unpopular opinion number 3: Although we all talk about the attitude era, it was only the third most popular time in wrestling, being less popular than the 80s Hogan era, and both combined paled in comparison to the popularity of wrestling in the early 1950s (fun fact in 1951 wrestling was on 3 of the 4 networks, and could be viewed in primetime 6 nights a week)

Michael Cole is the best part of the show by far. I don't care if Vince is giving him his one-liners or not, he delivers them so well I give him all the credit. NXT is train wreck Television and the wwe knows it. I think they do it on purpose but the girls seem so awful with there in-ring abilities I don't think they are smart enough to act that bad. I look at NXT as the first comedy sitcom the WWE has made. I put it right up there with the office on NBC. I wont go so far as saying Michael Cole is as good as good ole JR but I think he has overcome the King Jerry Lawler. I think people are missing the point on Michael Cole, he is the nerd that made it to the top and now brags about it every chance he gets. The guy is on every WWE program now and I for one think that is a great idea by Vinny Mac. A heel announcer is suppose to made you angry and not like him and Mr Cole has done that to perfection.

my unpopular opinion is (as someone else mentioned before) how great the Attitude Era was.

don't get me wrong i'm not a "THE PG ERA SHOULD DIE!!!!" or a "I HATE JOHN CENA HES THE WORST WRESTLER EVER" (although he is rather dreadful at times)

anyways was it the era of the greatest wrestlers? no. was i a HUGE Rock and Austin fan? no...i just enjoyed it for many reasons. it was exciting, there were great gimmicks, the live crowds went CRAZY and made the shows that much more enjoyable, great backstage segments, loveable wrestlers...nowdays you don't get it as much and anytime you ever start to mention that Era the IWC has a terrible habbit of jumping down your throat like you've just admitted Osama Bin Laden is your idol.

Sorry, but the bolded part of your sstatement is the most ignorant thing i've heard in years. There are a lot of reasons why we have school shootings and kids on meds, but some wrestlers cursing and girls looking sexy showin off thier behinds aint close to one of them. I think you should lighten up on the deal. If wrestling is a family oriented program, the it should be up to the parents to filter out what they feel is appropriate for their kids to watch. I can agree with you intently about the PG era being good for buisness, but again i can't stress enough how ridiculous you sound when you say attitude era wrestling is the stem of some of these problems.

NOW... my unpopular opinions:

I have no problem with Cena being the face of wrestling and I do find him to be entertaining (no I'm not 5 years old).

As someone already said, Undertaker was twice as entertaining as Big Evil/American Badass as he is as the Deadman. M.O.D Taker was the best though, but that isn't as unpopular.

If i want a good wrestling match, I'll take Cena vs Orton over Stone Cold vs. The Rock any day. (Not if I want a promo mind you, but nevertheless)

I don't know how unpopular this is, but I want Chris Benoit in the Hall of Fame....NOW!

In the 15 years+ i've been watching, the SmackDown brand in the Entertainment Era was by far the most intresting thing to watch.

I like Michell McCool.

Jack Swagger needs to be put back into the main event picture. I like his gimmick and abilites.

Just as many kids were at the live shows during the attitude era as there are in the PG era. I know because I was one of the kids during the A.E.

Serena looked just as pretty bald as she did with hair.

Many (not all mind you, but many) members of the IWC are so cynical that it wouldn't matter what program any company puts on T.V. they will still find a way to complain about it.

It was a mistake to have Kane win MITB. It should have gone to McIntyre.

Shelton Benjamin and Brock Lesnar were both overrated.

I think the Nexus Theme is pretty tight.

The WWE doesn't even know who the Raw GM is.

We only think the Attitude Era was so good because we only remember the best parts about it, and not all the crappy stuff they put out. Everything looks better in memories than it actually is.

The Hangover was overrated.

Yeah I think that's pretty much it for now.

^This, I think Smackdown has had the most interesting talent and best matches in WWE for quite a long time now. It's my second favourite weekly show (behind ROH on HDNet)


I think Michael Cole is Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seconded. For some reason, I like Michael Cole for all the reasons most people hate him.

Ric Flair is overrated and has never been half as good as he hypes himself to be. His promos are repetetive and often ridiculous, he keeps banging on about old wrestlers no one cares about and how everyone should show respect, but he's nothing but an attention whore and an embarrassment to wrestling.

I also believe that Arn Anderson, Dusty Rhodes, Roddy Piper and Andre the Giant are among the worst wrestlers to enter a ring. That is, their matches are neither entertaining nor believable. I will say that Piper was great on the mic and an entertaining character, just sloppy in the ring.

I never said his wrestling overshadowed what he has done, I never said he wasn't a monster, or that when I heard what happened I didn't want to throw up. The fact of the matter is though (and this could be considered another unpopular opinion, but I believe it with all my heart) he did what he did in large part because of us. The man was ill and it was because of the extreme stress he was under trying to put on a show for us night in and night out. Should he have gotten help, of coarse, is what he's done reprehencable, of coarse, but he put his body and mind on the line for us and it cost him everything, and maybe-just maybe it was because he did one too many of those diving headbutts we loved to see so much.

This is why I loved the Matt Morgan storyline in TNA, this is why when people say "we need the chairshots to the head back!" and "we need blood in pro wrestling!" I gag a little. It's because it's been proven that pounding these guys take for us is not just a physical dilemma, it's also a mental one.

Please allow the most stand out poster in the EWN forum community to give his infinite wisdom on this matter. I'm trying really hard to understand your logic but hell you don't need infinite wisdom to tell your under 18. Your unbelievably ridiculous reasons are the reason why we have school shootings and so many young kids on meds these days. FYI pro rasslin isnt a violent sport, it has violence in it of course but its more a soap opera/Broadway play if you will. Its about storylines and how good overcomes evil or vise versa. I bet you really think john 3:16 really means I just whooped your ass. I bet you have no idea what it really means. Going PG WILL help kids, they don't need sex,drugs and ultra violence on a fictional TV program to think its cool. What's really cool is understanding pro rasslin is just a show. You obliviously don't have kids and your life experience is minimal but for once try to understand kids need to be kids and they sure don't need grown up problems in there life, they have enough problems with bullies and if they are wearing name-brand clothing so they can be in the "cool" group at school. You have a lot to learn fella.

I would just like to add to this:

Kids would always need real life heroes to look up to. It could be a basketball player, a football player, or, the ultimate good guy who beats up the bad guy in pro wrestling. You had the Hogans, Cenas, Rocks, Harts etc who beat the evil ways of Pipers, Slaughters, Ortons, etc. What's great about this is that the kids can relate more with wrestlers rather than comic book heroes because they can actually SEE them live. That's their real contribution to society.

Others were put in similar situations or worse and they didn't kill their families. Look at Foley, his body is practically torn apart and nothing happened (so far). It was more then us wanting more. It was a combination of a concussion, medical malpractice and mental distress. Literally a ticking time bomb waiting to happen.

I can totally get where you're coming from. Bearing in mind that WWE and TNA spend literally millions of dollars on production costs to make their shows look as fluid and saccharine as possible, it can be very jarring (at least at first) to watch an indy show set in a school gym hall with maybe two mediocre cameras, terrible sound mixing and no pyrotechnics. I personally don't think that indy wrestlers are bland, per se, (see: chikara) but there does seem to be a worrying trend of anyone with major star power and/or incredible mic skills being snapped up by WWE or TNA lately, especially in Ring of Honor which I feel is suffering from it a bit. And, honestly, I'm not a huge fan of indy commentary either. Their voices usually range from tolerable to god-awful and it's often too heavy on "play-by-play" style.

I think it's obvious to anyone with eyes that the indys put on a lot of great - sometimes incredible - matches, but if you don't think the wrestling can possibly make up for those shortcomings then... it probably just ain't for you, I'm afraid.

But Mysterio is probably my least favorite wrestler, ever. EVER. I'm going to the old school Raw, and was pretty mad that I'd have to sit there and watch him.

I love JR as much as the next guy, I honestly do, but in this era they need to start promoting 'tommorrows' announcers so the one veteran on each show format worked, that is untill JR retired due to an unfortunate bells palsy attack. With Kings guidance Michael Cole could become an even -better- announcer and develop a following for himself.

Unpopular opinion number 1: Dino Bravo was a better World's Strongest Man than either Ken Patera or Mark Henry.
Unpopular opinion number 2: ECW was highly overrated, not very successful, and was just a cult company (a far inferior version of WCCW in my opinion) that lucked out in timing
Unpopular opinion number 3: Although we all talk about the attitude era, it was only the third most popular time in wrestling, being less popular than the 80s Hogan era, and both combined paled in comparison to the popularity of wrestling in the early 1950s (fun fact in 1951 wrestling was on 3 of the 4 networks, and could be viewed in primetime 6 nights a week)

My unpopular opinion is I think the people that bring up the PG bullshit really don't know what the f they are talking about. They are probably between the ages of 8-16 and still have a bed time. They don't understand how business and sponsors work in this world. They have no idea how much money it cost to run a live television show.They don't understand that pro rasslin is geared towards kids, it has always been for the kids unless your taking about the 1930 pro wrestling. To the people that bring up PG bullsh*t they don't realize they started watching wrestling when they were a kid, not in your 30's. They don't understand parents choose what there kids watch for the most part and I for one wouldn't want my 10 year old to see some grown man having intimate relations with a f'n dead person or let them hear foul words and see tities on a tv program. Kids grow up to fast these days and need good ole fashion family programing the WHOLE FAMILY CAN ENJOY TOGETHER. Most importantly they don't f'n understand the concept "IF YOU DON'T F'N LIKE IT, CHANGE THE F'N CHANNEL." WORD

Edge is the best worker in the industry today. Bischoff adds flavor to tna, hogan not so much. every ppv is the same every month till mania season.

TNA has a good roster but there roster is confusing. You see TNA orginals, then you see former WWE talent, then you see some former ECW wrestlers, then you see washed up hasbeens like Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, and Eric Bishoff. Its like a damn wrestling convention with there roster! At least with WWE you see there new fresh talent and not wrestlers you've seen wrestle in the past. I will say that TNA's roster with guys like MCMG, AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, and the others puts WWE's roster to shame.

Yeah. WWE did over the top things like Mae Young giving birth to a hand wrestlers bleeding under 20 seconds during the matches. Name me one great match in the attitude era that the wrestler didn't bleed.

I don't mind blood, hell I like it when it helps tell a story in the ring, what I hated were the short matches that were all kick punch kick punch and over the top bad angles like you mentioned. Don't get me wrong it was still better then what we have today.

My unpopular opinions:

1.) I hated Hulk Hogan when I was young. I was always a Bret Hart fan. Also loved me some Ultimate Warrior.

2.) To me, THE 'E is the best wrestling promotion ever. And with this, I have my own explanations but hell, it's not about explaining my reasons.

3.) The nWo sucked. I hate Bitchoff for everything he stole from all the other companies. STOLE!

4.) The "Attitude Era" was okay at best, no use beating a dead horse here.

5.) Chris Benoit should be in the Hall Of Fame. And his legacy should not be erased.

6.) Chris Jericho is the best wrestler alive today.

7.) Ric Flair is overrated. And always has been.

8.)Jake "The Snake" Roberts would have been the greatest of all time had he not fucked it up drastically.

9.) Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat was better than 90% of today's wrestlers and better than 79% of his era's wrestlers.

10.) Dusty Rhodes is the fucking man, and always will be.

11.) I miss Mr. Kennedy.... Kennedy.

I like John Cena. And The Miz. Much more than I like Randy Orton. To me he's always been overrated but has a great image that's sells and his character is passably decent and he's barely halfway competant in the ring.

I love Vickie (but you already knew that) and Michael Cole, but I wish his character would do something more than being a minor annoyance on the mic. There's huge potential there.

Wrestlers need to know when to say enough. But while there are promoters who are interested and willing to pay, then they will always have a nostalgia act job somewhere.

Triple H was at his best in 03. I really don't get why people say that he was going downhill. With Evolution taking off, burying people, and feuding with the likes of his friend Shawn Michaels, Scott Steiner, and Goldberg, how can this be his worst year? 06 was his worst year!

if you like him thats cool. i just dont see the big deal over him. he spins and flips around when he does a move. has crappy mic skills. his finisher while it 'looks' impressive he almost never lands on the guy (the best was when he almost totally missed someone and i believe it was cole who said he landed an elbow on him!!!). him and r-truth should become a tag team since they are basically the same flippy flop style.

1. Paul Heyman is no savoir. TNA would be the same or probably worse if he called the shots.

2. Eric Bishoff strikes me as a man who could care less about any aspect of wrestling. I think he is just a man looking for a payday.

3. Ditto for Hulk Hogan at this stage in his career.

4. When John Cena poses with his hate fans it is not an act of courage, but one of insecurity.

5. The fact that Rick Flair has no substantial money at this stage in his career is the most pathetic thing I have ever heard of.

6. If Scott Hall was not so messed up with alcohol and drugs he would have been one of the top stars of the last 20 years.

7. HBK is really the only wrestler who was as good as the character he sold.

8. Vince McMahon’s only weakness is his ego.

9. Bret screwed Bret.

10. Goldberg is a child that had his whole wrestling career spoon fed to him.

11. The Sandman looks like he could drink more beers than Stone Cold.

12. Owen Hart’s technical ability was greater than Bret’s.

13. Chris Jericho had the most annoying gimmick on the roster in his WCW days (Disco Inferno was less annoying).

Was he the asshole he is reported to be? He may have changed, even Mustaine grew up. Somewhat ;)

He was actually pretty cool. Me and some friends skipped school and hung out in a Guitar Center. When he walked I almost pissed myself. I went up to him, shook his hand and told him he was one of my idols. You could tell from a mile away that I was nervous, which might be why he wasn't an ass to me.

He was even dressed up the same way he is on stage. Pretty fat too.

I wish SD! and RAW NEVER had counter interactions. I like them seperate.

The only time they should interact is on PPVs, but they shouldn't fight against each other except at Bragging Rights (which is the whole point of the PPV, the "Who's better?" aspect, but I digress) and Survivor Series.

1) The PG wrestling era of the 80's sucked just as bad as the PG-13 era does today, which in turn sucks just as much as the Attitude era did, although the presentation of the product has significantly improved over time.

2) You can't make big money in wrestling without being a politicking opportunist.

3) The Big Boss Man was underrated.

4) Most women in wrestling get molded into forgettable stereotypes.

5) Every wrestler has a 'I pooped myself' story.

3. I could never like 2 Cold Scorpio because of his attire
4. The Beverly Brothers had a great theme back in WWF.. It reminded me of a level on Sonic The Hedgehog (Genesis) lol
5. Wrestling theme songs sucked since theyve incorporated actual songs from music acts.. I miss the originality of their own theme..
6. Knockouts, I mean actual knockouts should be incorporated in singles matches, i.e. striking finisher + 10 count = winner by KO, and that also gets rid of wrestlers laying down on the floor for 30 seconds - 3 minutes
7. They need to stop talking about Eve Torres and her Jiujitsu background because when she even tries to use a little in the ring it comes off as sloppy, just because u train in a martial art doesnt mean you're gonna be a master, look at all the failed boxers, mma, and amateur wrestlers who train their whole lives and never make it..

I didnt like Eddie till the WWE when he cut the mullet off lolol, I didnt like him in WCW either BUT the three matches ive seen him live for WCW were hands down the matches of the night.. He stole the show at Bash At the Beach in San Diego..


I agree with you on all counts except for the choke slam. If it is delivered with enough intensity it can sell as a finisher.
The Giant in his WCW days, Psycho Sid, and Scott Hall before he made it a parody of The Giant delivered it with enough intensity to close a match.
I used to really like the chokeslam, but so many big men use it that it watered down for me.. I do remember some greatly delivered chokeslams, I just think the big men could do so much more, its like the go-to move for giants..


1. Hulk Hogan was a better actor in No Holds Barred than John Cena was in The Marine.

2. No Holds Barred was a better movie than The Marine, although they were both awful movies.

Bolded because I agree to this..

I can't stand Anarquia's voice, it's unbearable, i can't understand how people can sit and listen to him, not willing to cut their ears off.

1. Kevin Nash is responsible for killing the WCW, Vince Russo just helped bury it away
2. Scott Steiner before 2001 was one of the greatest in ring workers ever
3. Ive always hated the Big Bossman character ever since I was a kid which made me never care for any of his other personalities
4. Smash (Barry Darsow) was my favorite out of Demolition
5. I thought Bryan Adam's Hawaiian Crush character was dope and my favorite persona from him
6. William Regal shouldve held a world title in WWE or WCW
7. Greg The Hammer Valentine and Rugged Ronnie Garvin were wrestlers I rooted for growing up, and no one else I knew felt the same lol
8. I couldnt stand the Headbangers tag team
9. I didnt like Jeff Jarrett till TNA
10. Bret Hart's greatest matches were with Mr Perfect, now that was a show

Looking back the Undertakers original look and ring attire was mostly ridiculous. I cannot believe I thought it was intimidating back in the early 90’s
