8/10

It was a big moment for WCW, however the WWE was the big dog in wrestling at that time, to me. I was never really into the sting character much. Sort of like a undertaker wanna be. Was he good, was he bad. Didnt really care. I'd probably only rank a few WCW moments in the 9's, so this is still pretty high on the WCW list.

Sting vs Hogan should have been THE match that helped WCW beat WWF... Let's just say it didn't turn out that way.

John Cena returns to WWE at The Royal Rumble!

During a match with Mr. Kennedy on the October 1, 2007 episode of Raw, Cena suffered a legitimate torn pectoral muscle while executing a hip toss. Though he finished the match and took part in the scripted attack by Randy Orton after the match, surgery the following day found that his pectoralis major muscle was torn completely from the bone, estimated at the time to require seven months to a year of rehabilitation. As a result, he was stripped of the title in an announcement by Vince McMahon on the next night's episode of ECW, ending what was the longest WWE Championship reign in over 19 years.

Cena made an unannounced return to action on January 27, as the final participant of the Royal Rumble, winning the match and the traditional WrestleMania title shot, by last eliminating Triple H. He looked better than ever before and the prototype had returned to WWE.

9.5/10. Not full ten because my freaking stream kept frozing over the return. His return alone is a 9. HHH's expression and Cena staring at him and saying "You, me, it's go time" give this an extra 9.5

10/10. Not even the so-called 'smart' fans had any idea at all, one of the biggest shock returns since Warrior.

Yeah, that was probably one of the most shocking returns of all time. Well booked match as well. Great finish.

8/10 A shocking return. I was pissed when he came back because you knew right away that he was winning the rumble.

ECW Chair Tossing

408100911_d9f749f8e7.jpg


One of the most famous events in the history of ECW was the chair tossing incident. After a match between Terry Funk and Cactus Jack in 1995, The Public Enemy interfered and battled both men. At one point, Funk asked a fan for a chair while in the ring. Instead of one chair, several dozen came flying in the ring and buried The Public Enemy. This moment is etched into every ECW fans memory because it has been replayed hundreds of times in the opening credits of ECW’s TV shows.

The famous "3:16" is invented at the King of the Ring.

Stone Cold Steve Austin's genuine rise to superstardom began on June 23, 1996 in Milwaukee, where the 1996 King of the Ring pay-per-view took place. Something big happened, '3:16' was invented that night. Steve Austin began using his trademark finishing maneuver, the Stone Cold Stunner, which had been taught to him by Hayes, and with this new technique he won the King of the Ring tournament, receiving a huge push. After toppling Marc Mero in the semi-finals, Austin defeated Jake "The Snake" Roberts in the final. After the match, Austin cut a promo during his coronation, telling Roberts:

“ You sit there and you thump your Bible, and you say your prayers, and it didn't get you anywhere! Talk about your Psalms, talk about John 3:16... Austin 3:16 says I just whipped your ass! ”

It was pretty surprising when it happened, so there's that. As for impact, that is obvious. This served as the trigger than set off Steve Austin's career. He gained enough momentum to challenge Bret Hart, who would end up giving Austin a huge rub into the main event/upper midcard.

This kinda changed wrestling in that era. Stone Cold redefined wrestling in the mid 90's and this was one of the most important events of that time.

Probably one of the biggest things to ever happen in wrestling. If this wouldn't have happened, the Attitude Era never would've really started. No Austin/McMahon, Austin/Rock or anything like that. No classic Stone Cold moments. Stone Cold probably saved wrestling in the 90's becuase it sure as hell wasn't going anywhere in the early to mid 90's.
