Though I'm now wondering how we ended up watching 27 in one of these LDs

 

[Tremendez]

It still has a Shawn vs. Taker 1 of 4 streak matches. That's one thru line I remember well.

Masochism

 

[Tremendez]

Blaze wanted to watch it.

 

[Tremendez]

He was there.

 

[Chris]

Bc Blaze was there live lol

 

[Tremendez]

Cena keeping his head down like a perp was a nice touch.

 

[Sky]

The spinner belt was fucking terrible

 

[Sky]

Somehow it lasted eight years or so

 

[Tremendez]

It was compared to what came before, but I prefer to the Super Bowl Ring WWE belts.

 

[Santa Hoss]

HBK vs. Taker was better than Trips vs. Taker though. To me. Had a whole different vibe. You had the end of the stoic Jericho character vs. Edge. Batista vs. Cena as kind of an era defining match. Trips vs. Sheamus. The Legacy three way.

 

[Tremendez]

Should have brought back the Undisputed, it only got 3 years.

 

[Santa Hoss]

Then 27 felt way more commercial with Rock's involvement and the Snooki match and Trips vs. Taker feeling like the only semi-meaningful actual match on there.

 

[Tremendez]

I mean, I don't like any of those Taker matches so that'll be lost on me. And I'm sure the stories were different, but how WWE produced all those Manias felt the same to me.

 

[Santa Hoss]

To me 26 felt more organic and 27 was, like Chris I think said, just a commercial for 28.
