he gets that pop no matter when or who it was against. he was breaking through. that was the height of his popularity and then the concussion struck and he never got another chance.

It was a combination of Ziggler holding the briefcase for a ridiculous length of time and Del Rio being the most boring World Champ.

I was talking tongue in cheek there haha. I know its a huge moment but its still dependent on the crowd it happened in front of.

for the most part it is, but i think he gets that reaction 9/10 times wherever they're at.

Rich Swann Released By WWE


 



WWE has announced the release of Rich Swann A statement at WWE.com notes that Swann and WWE “mutually agreed” on his departure.
The company wished him “the best in all of his future endeavors” – but still decided to release him on his birthday (February 15th).

 

The former Cruiserweight champion was arrested back in December for a domestic incident that included charges of battery and kidnapping/false imprisonment.
Those charges were dropped last month after Swann reconciled with his partner and there was insufficient evidence for police to continue pursuing the matter. Upon the battery/kidnapping charges being dropped, Swann’s lawyer commented that he was hopeful about a WWE return.

I've heard one episode. Doesn't really stack up to Something to Wrestle imo. Pritchard's on a whole other level.

Pritchard’s pod is real good. I just find it funny when Schiavone calls matches today. For me it’s also amazing I didn’t realize how bad WCW’s booking was; even at the height of the NWO.

 

[Pugz]

it was all nwo lol

I might give it another shot just to hear the backstage chaos stories. I think I'd like it better if I was more familiar with WCW, but I really just know the broad strokes.

WCW was great at the height of the NWO but in hindsight, their booking made little sense, PPVs weren’t used to culminate feuds, and a majority of their matches ended with run-ins and DQs.

I remember being such an NWO mark bc I grew up idolizing red & yellow Hogan.

thats because the majority of the stars had complete and total control of their characters and the big three nwo guys really had control to book their own outcomes and stories.
