[Hidden Blaze]

Kick his ass Taker

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

Still not as bad as Show in 2000 or 2006

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Or is this just pre-Un-Americans bc they're all Canadian

They’re not the Un-Americans yet. I don’t believe, anyway. Probably because the four were Canadians.

 

[Chris]

Wild to me that they have the rights to the music obviously but are just too lazy to put different versions of the PPVs up

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Man I can't believe this is the only reign Jericho got in his original run

Also, criminal because this run is so good. Especially once he and Stephanie are paired up.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

See, I miss the Hardcore Title. We got the 24/7 title but it ain't the same. it is still 24/7 rules here right?

 

[Chris]

Yeah but no one fucked with Taker so not really

 

[Hidden Blaze]

So its there just no one was taking advantage of it

 

[Chris]

Yeah, they were scared of Taker in kayfabe

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

Forgot Big Show was face here

 

[Chris]

Well also probably outside of kayfabe too from the stories I've heard of him in the locker room during this time

 

[Hidden Blaze]

I would've said fuck it, I don't care and attacked his ass anyway. Bunch of damn pussies

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Taker already out of lazy 01 mode

Dude, Big Evil was a beast. His heel turn in late 01 was boss and his match with RVD at Vengeance.

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

Yeah Big Evil was fucking legit

 

[Chris]

The break down to the hardcore division was a really good move for Taker tbh
