End of the Streak is a strong contender for #1... just because it's the biggest surprise any Mania had in my eyes.

 

[Loochblade]

It was a genuine shocking moment, as you can tell by the audience reactions. I exactly know where I was and what I did when it happened and I'll never forget that moment.

 

[Barry Poppins]

I remember watching it live. It *really* just sorta killed the ppv and not in a bad way. Just like, so shocked and emotionally drained before Bryan's win brought it back.

 

[Loochblade]

I never held Bryan's win high, because again, it was kinda obvious they'd do it, after the months before Mania.

 

[Barry Poppins]

I don't think I knew what would happen. You can say "it was obvious" but again, it's Vince we're talking about.

 

[Barry Poppins]

He could sneeze and instantly change his opinion on things.

 

[Barry Poppins]

The Bryan situation was also predicated a month before Mania and after the Rumble. The crowd and wwe audience as a collective hijacked the entire company and basically ransomed for Bryan's win.

 

[Loochblade]

Yea, of course it's Vince but come on. In the end everyone should've known that they won't go with nothing less than a Bryan win, after the Batista Rumble debacle

 

[Loochblade]

Eh... I don't know. They started the whole "B+" thing in the fall the year before.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Eh... I don't know. They started the whole "B+" thing in the fall the year before.

That's because they never intended for him to win until possibly later in the year.

 

[Loochblade]

Maybe

 

[Barry Poppins]

The Kofi situation was also well built but there was still a legitimate possibility of Bryan retaining. It wasn't so cut and dry and obvious.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Fuck I need to get some sleep.

 

[Loochblade]

Yes, go sleep. Rest well, Grim

Night night Looch
