    Was it Bray that DB was originally planned to wrestle before he got bumped up?
  2. Kross Rhodes

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    This whole discussion makes me think because 2013 is probably the main time in WWE I'd really want to book over with exception to early Invasion / Ruthless Aggression Era / Brand Split stuff. Probably rivaling my my wanting to rebook WCW after they got Bret Hart. The 2013 roster and product was...

    At 30, makes you wonder. Maybe Triple H? They originally didn't plan to do the DB match. I'm kinda happy with the 30 we got, though.

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Early in the match I think. I never heard that story about Rock and Brock. Wouldn't mind the match, but not over the streak ending.

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    I enjoyed all their matches (mainly because Punk 99% of them :lol) But imagine them trying to have their best yet for a Mania main event? :banderas:

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Rock was hurt I believe and it was pretty lackluster. Which makes me this whole shouldn't have been the main easier to argue in retrospect even if that makes no sense. :side:

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    I'd have fucked with Rock/Punk, a triple threat or even a Cena/Punk main event. We never got those two in a Mania main event. Imagine them trying to outdo their MITB match for a Mania main event? :DEAD:
  8. Kross Rhodes

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    I always felt the Rock/Punk match was such a huge marquee match-up it could have taken place at Mania. And imagine the pop if Rock won the 2013 Royal Rumble and not Cena? If Rock tossed out Cena to win even? :vince2 Setting Rock and Cena for SummerSlam, easily. Then you'd get Rock for what a...

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    The bookers make the matches. They can book the belt on whomever they want. Make the challenger whomever they want. Punk could have been the champion or challenger at any of his several Manias. Including 30. Orton/Punk/Batista/DB? Yes pls. Your argument also falls apart since Punk WAS champion...

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Then for 30 they wanted Punk to wrestle H while Orton/Batista main evented. Come on. This is before DB was added.
  11. Kross Rhodes

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Because it didn't need the belt. They choose to put the belt on Rock when the decided to make it the main event. That match didn't need to main two years in a row. You have a hot superstar do a 434-day reign as champion. He can main one of those two Manias. Makes the most sense to do it over...

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Ali is great, but not sure the move will do much since he's back with the same creative.
  13. Kross Rhodes

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Rock/Cena 2 didn't need the belt and who knows, maybe you do a title versus streak main event with Punk and Taker.
  14. Kross Rhodes

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Maybe, maybe not. The original no-show was just as much about him being seriously sick and the doctor being an idiot. As for Rock/Cena, he understood that in 2012, sort of, but it didn't need to repeat main event the following year after his 434 days as champ.

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Punk is a mark, too. Had they sent him a return to work notice after his wedding and then took that meeting, convincing him to return would have been easy. All they had to do was stoke his ego a little by saying things like the fans are gonna miss you, Phil. And maybe promise a main event.
  16. Kross Rhodes

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Rocky's neglect started 3 years before he left. He spent maybe a third of contracted time actually working for the company. I wouldn't question anyone for not hating Rocky like I never questioned those that did. It's all subjective.

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    Also, man was fuckin' sick, and they suspended him, and then fired him on his wedding day during his suspension. If they had called him or sent a letter informing him his suspension was lifted and they were evoking breach of contract, he would have come in to talk to them. But they never did...
  18. Kross Rhodes

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    He wasn't wrestling for his fans for 7-years because he decided he'd rather be doing something else. He couldn't even be bothered to do guest appearance for major milestones when WWE LEGITIMATELY ASKED HIM TO DO IT FOR THE FANS AND SAID NAH I'M GOOD. (I don't know why that capitalized itself...

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    It should also be noted that Punk no-showed a single Raw because of creative reasons, but mainly because of a situation with the WWE doctors. After a meeting with Triple H and Vince, Punk was actually suspended and while he was on suspension they fired him on his wedding day. Punk was under...

    Mustafa Ali moved to RAW?

    He still said fuck the fans when he decided to literally never come to a guest show he was asked to do for 7-years. He still walked out on the wrestling world. Even before the contract. He was never here. He worked maybe 2-4 months out of each of his last 4 years with the WWE. Would we all make...
