WWF WrestleMania X8 Watch Along

King didn't like that divorce line by JR

If he wasn't already retired by the time I started in TEW, I would have given him a push.

 

[Chris]

He wrestled for TNA in like 04 right? He should have been able to be talked into wrestling lol

Even temporarily retiring the IC title what the fuck were they thinking

Doesn't seem like they were. The philosophy makes no sense. 7 of the 8 they have here existed for about 4 years. Splitting the belt between two brands was already cutting it down to 4 for each brand and to then return all he belts except the world titles, tag and CW? What? They clearly realized quickly how little room they have to push feuds without midcard belts. May when the IC returns and July when the US re-debuts. I'm not even the biggest fan of the Hardcore, but when you have a brand split, that's a good division to give one show a unique class of matches over the other.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

The biggest problem was they gave most of their belts to Raw in the original draft.

 

[Chris]

I think the IC title was SmackDown exclusive for a couple weeks or so until a PPV

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Fake out powerbomb. Christian such a coward he didn't even try to get out of it.

 

[Ricky Smarks]
