  1. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    If there's one show stealer, it's Trips vs Taker. That's how you tell a story. Easily the MOTY for 2012 and a rare 5 stars at Mania. I seem to remember the undercard being pretty weak, but I haven't seen the show since it happened.
  2. Which former PPV would you like to see come back?

    Re: Which former PPV would you like to see come back. You can throw in the original Souled Out in as well. All rather poor ideas, but they get a gold star for the effort. The key difference between those three failed gimmicks and Halloween Havoc is that Halloween Havoc was just a change in...
  3. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    Taker/Edge could be a WWE MOTYC. 2008 was sorta an off year for MOTYC's compared to 2007 and 2009. Off of the top of my head, the only match I can think of that was better than Edge/Taker was Hardy/Hunter from No Mercy.
  4. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    I have some very different opinions than you. The Triple Threat WWE title match wasn't very good at all. It wasn't as dull as the following year's match, but Hunter is such a kiss of death when it comes to World Title matches on Mania around this time period. Umaga/Batista was a massive...
  5. Which former PPV would you like to see come back?

    Re: Which former PPV would you like to see come back. One Night Stand doesn't have any name value to bring in a decent buyrate. In fact, I'd go as far to say that TLC or MITB has more value. War Games was never a PPV. It was just a match partnered with a PPV. Whether that PPV was Great...
  6. Which WM main events did they get wrong?

    Hindsight being 20/20, Wrestlemania 1 should have been Hulk Hogan defending the World Title against Roddy Piper. Wrestlemania 4 should have had a main event you could hype and advertise. Wrestlemania 7 would have been better off with either Hogan vs Warrior or Warrior vs Savage in a...
  7. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    Man, Michaels/Angle has to be the most overrated Wrestlemania match ever! :lol: On the plus side, MITB 1 was an awesome match and Orton/Taker provided plenty of entertaining moments. I can't say the rest does a lot for me though. What's kind of frustrating is that both World Title matches would...
  8. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    Since I've been pretty negative in this thread, I'll start with all of my positive thoughts. Even though I wasn't as impressed with others when it came to Taker/Michaels WM 25, I thought the rematch delivered in a huge way. You literally have my MOTY (Not just for WWE either) with the match. It...
  9. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    Looking forward to your post about Wrestlemania 9. :lol:
  10. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    Ha, maybe you just need to pick the right Mania to praise. There's a few I really love.
  11. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    My opinion on Wrestlemania 14 has changed since I began rewatching 1998 Raws. Basically, the build-up to the show was pretty poor. They spent so little time hyping Michaels vs Austin, instead focusing on Austin/Tyson and starting the McMahon/Austin program. The build-up was pretty similar to...
  12. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    Jake was leaving, so in theory, that's exactly what should have happened. It had nothing to do with Hogan. Sid's contract promised him the main event slot at Mania. I don't see what's bad about making it a fourteen match tournament. Hogan and Andre both have claims to being the legit...
  13. King James Presents: List It! - Top 10 WrestleManias!

    Wrestlemania 8 feels like the first Mania that lacked something. It's mostly just a two match show with a completely underwhelming undercard and a main event that was easily the worst of the first ten Manias. The two sole highlights being the amazing IC Title match (Personally, my choice for...
  14. WWE Hall of Fame 2013 Thread

    Man, sometimes it's like pulling teeth trying to get a discussion out of you. It gets pretty frustrating, especially since I actually like you. The board can be extremely quiet at times. So trying to start a little discussion/debate and having it shot down so fiercely takes so much fun out of...
  15. WWE Hall of Fame 2013 Thread

    Just for the sake of creating a little...shall we say "Spirited debate", how does it feel supporting a band of wrestlers that one could say have ruined pro wrestling? To some extent, the Outsiders were the first long running "Cool heels", a concept that just killed the balance for cheering...
  16. WWE Hall of Fame 2013 Thread

    Is the Kliq the reason though? Or did you get back into wrestling because of Shawn Michaels and The Outsiders all working various matches? Back then, you probably didn't even know that there was a behind the scenes Kliq. See if this makes any sense, it wasn't the Kliq that brought you back, but...
  17. PWG: DDT4 2013

    The only thing that makes any sense is that with DojoBros defeating the Bucks last month, they have a tag title shot coming up now. However, the waters become murky since Future Shock defeated DojoBros tonight, yet they couldn't even get past the semi-finals. For the sake of booking, Bucks...
  18. PWG: DDT4 2013

    Just as things finally get on track for the PWG World Title, PWG starts up on the random booking for the tag division. If there's one huge flaw in PWG, it's how random they get with their titles at times.

  20. TNA changes its PPV strategy

    Think of it in a different way. Instead of having thrown together PPV's every month, most of which don't feel important, you now have time to make each match matter on all four PPV's. As long as TNA doesn't continue to put in so little effort in building up matches, you're going to get so much...
