SmackDown Live Live SmackDown Discussion thread, April 21st 2023: 2 Title matches

What was going on in oct 2011 in WWE? I guess CM Punk was a month away from his historic WWE title run. John Cena was the top guy in the company and was in the middle of his feud with The Rock. Randy Orton was like 31. Mark Henry was in his Hall of Pain run.

I loved those mags Chris. I'd always get the SD ones because they were better

My grandma got me a subscription to WWE Raw and Smackdown magazine from like 2003-2006. I should see if she still has them somewhere at her place

I had WWE magazine. Never knew they were separate at one point

FFS, I still remember the big thing on wrestling forums were the south park like wrestler graphics people would do on them
