Triple H winning the scramble by one second. I had been recording the PPV, and i actually stopped the Recording, turned the channel, and went to Wikipedia to see who won the rest of the matches. That MAJORLY annoyed me too. Probably the first time since I got back into wrestling I've been so annoyed to honestly not be able to express how annoyed I am. And what annoys me even more is two little kids in red shirts on the front row who are marking out for Triple H. I know they don't really understand that Triple H gets 'preferable treatment' to say the least. |

But Jeff was MAJORLY over. The crowd wanted it sooo bad. Now, I'm not the biggest Hardy fan, but I think Hardy is ready. You may not, but that's your opinion |

HHH going over Booker T at Wrestlemania 19. Especially after the long delay after hitting the pedigree.
Rey Mysterio and CM Punk's Championship runs. Why even give them the belt if you are going to make them look like bitches?
Undertaker burying Paul Bearer in cement at GAB 2004.
Luger's post Summerslam 93 celebration. All that excitement over a countout victory?
Randy Savage attempting to pin Yokozuna at the Royal Rumble 1994 match resulting in him getting tossed. A pin attempt? WTF?!?
The mystery egg at the 1990 Survivor Series being the Gobbledy Gooker. Again, WTF?!?
Goldberg wearing the Goldust wig.
Kurt Angle saying he wanted "beastiality sex" with Queen Sharmell.
Mordecai.
The Edge vs. Matt Hardy match at Summerslam 2004. It was so hyped and wound up with Hardy getting his ass kicked and over with in a few minutes.
Using Eddie Guerrero's name so much in storylines after his death.

nWo's WWE return.
It was an amazing moment, i got 'the' chill when the music hit and they made their way to the ring. My issue was what happened after it, i thought it was such a cool idea to have them return, the mistakes had been noted from the WCW stint, and the potential was amazing if used right... but shock horror,.. it wasn't.
A number of avenues could have happened:
1) like the old WCW talent getting 'plssed off' with them returning after escaping the nWo dictatorship... (this could have led to a better 2nd brand). It had the potential to be managed properly and a lot of good wcw talent could have been used and not buried.
2) nWo vs DX = say no more!
3) Even the direction they went in wasn't 'bad', it just flopped because of how it was managed.
obviously Nash got injured and Hall fell off the wagon again, but.... well you know, the above!

Hogan,Hall and Nash vs Stone Cold,Rock and Undertaker as a feud would have ruled all. but Champ in Law Heatseeker Hurst Helmsley had a say in this too-even though it was ZERO to do with him. |

Was Angle/Perfect really planned to happen? I always heard this but Perfect seemed like a jobber in early 2002

Oh man.
1. Triple H hitting the Pedigree on Booker T and then waiting for quite some time before pinning him for the three count. It sent Booker back down to the mid-card and he didn't recover until he became King Booker and completely reinvented himself.
2. The Undertaker absolutely SQUASHING DDP at every turn. DDP got a huge pop when he revealed himself to be the stalker and if DDP came out of that feud looking good, I'd bet money that he'd still be around and have won a Championship by then. At the same time, it would have helped make Team WCW look stronger and they wouldn't need Austin to defect, which leads me to...
3. The InVasion angle. It started out great. It really did. I'm even good with WCW and ECW joining up. I would have preferred the McMahons stay out of it, but whatever, I can live with that. But then they had Austin join the Alliance and turned it into a WWF vs. WWF faction. Seriously, take a look at the Survivor Series teams. On Team WCW, you had Stone Cold (Who became a star in the WWF), Kurt Angle (who didn't even factor into the Monday Night Wars), Shane McMahon (the WWF owner's son), Rob Van Dam (an ECW guy), and Booker T (the only real WCW wrestler). This was supposed to be WWF vs. WCW and there was only one guy representing WCW on that team. The whole angle was rushed and poorly booked. Which leads me to...
4. The abandoned pushes of Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho in favor of rushing the InVasion angle. Why do I keep capitalizing the V? I can understand Benoit getting injured but Jericho was on fire and put on the back burner. Which leads me to...
Oh hell, this can tie into 4. Chris Jericho was the man who beat Steve Austin and the Rock on the same night. He was booked poorly, despite the increase in ratings when he won the Championship. And then, at Wrestlemania, the main event was Stephanie McMahon vs. Triple H. Jericho was just in there because somebody had to be, but he was an after-thought and treated like one.
5. Hulk Hogan and the Rock having a killer promo, and then Hulk Hogan attempting to kill the Rock.
6. Not having Triple H vs. the Rock as the Wrestlemania 16 main event. What happened at Backlash is exactly what should have happened at the biggest show of the year.
7. Katie Vick. Seriously? Kane didn't even come out good on any end of this feud.
8. JBL getting the WWE Championship. Eddie Guerrero deserved a longer run with the belt, and the man to take it off of him was NOT JBL. That turned me off from wrestling for months, the first thing to actually do it.
9. Shawn Michaels winning the WWF Championship from Bret Hart at Wrestlemania 12. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with it now, it made sense. But when I was 9 years old and that cocky son of a bitch one the Championship from my favorite wrestler, I was PISSED.
10. The retirement of the Intercontinental Championship. What was the point of taking away one of your most established Championship belts that helps elevate younger talent? That was a dumb move.
11. The ENTIRE Greater Power storyline. I cannot put it any better than my favorite reviewer, J.D. Dunn of spam.com. This is following Backlash 1999, right after Austin defeated the Rock.
"# Outside at the limo, the Ministry comes out to accost the limo, so the security guards tell the driver to take off. Turns out that the KruegerTaker is the driver and he absconds with the boss' daughter. "WHERE TO, STEPHANIE?!" is one of the most fondly remembered awful moments in wrestling history.
# *Okay, by "inherent absurdity" I mean, of course, Russonomics because the whole thing was rendered Stupid On Arrival when the Ministry and Corporation formed the Corporate Ministry and revealed that Vince was behind the kidnapping of his own daughter and her subsequent forced wedding to the Undertaker (and her rescue). So, Vince and Shane going at each other's throats here is all just a ruse, and Vince helping Austin retain the title is all just part of the con. To what end, you might be asking? Why would they go to all the trouble of tricking us into thinking they hated each other to the point where Vince was helping Austin retain his title? Why, to get the title off Steve Austin, of course."
I hate Vince Russo. Seriously.

HugoOne, you and I are on the same boat with some of those above points:
The booking after WrestleMania X-Seven didn't make sense. Austin turning heel didn't do the WWF wonders since the fans were still cheering him. The InVasion Angle was awesome in the fisrt 3-4 weeks but after, it bacme one of the worse and botched angles in wrestling history. If anybody read "The Death of WCW" then you'll know how the WWF messed things up big time.
As Mick Foley mentions in "Foley Is Good", The original planned main event was Mick Foley vs. The Rock vs. Triple H for the WWF Championship. I do agree they should have done the title change at 'Mania. I recall being in extreme distaste because of the finish.
Another finish that let me in distaste. Eddie Guerrero did derserve a longer run as WWE Champion. In fact, they should have Eddie Guerrero and Kurt Angle fued for the belt.
The retirement of the Intercontinential Championship was one of the worst decisions in the last 6 years. Eliminating it was just plain intellectually- disabled. Too bad the Intercontinential Championship has not recovered since then.
The Higher Power Storyline didn't make any sense at all. Having McMahon needed Austin's help to take out The Undertaker and prevent the "Black Wedding" was just plain bad. As you pointed out, Shane and Vince going at it made it look dumber. The WWF booked some WrestleCrap worthy storylines during that part in 1999.

The Sting situation at Starrcade 97 angers me more than anything.
For the simple fact that they built that up for over a year and drew one of the largest audiences ever to do that.
It was such a waste.

Hogan going over HBK at Summerslam 05 is definitely one.
Hogan wrestles part time and is an old-hack and couldn't put over a full-time wrestler that could still, full-time contribute. Then again, Hogan beats everyone so, on a whole that bothers me.

man there have been a few that made me reel with disgust. heres my top peevs...... Austin being turned heel after WM17 annoyed me but to have him turn on team WWF at Invasion made me stop watching for a month SOLID.my God it made zero sense at all. HHH going over Goldberg in the Elimination Chamber after Goldberg wiped the rest of the competition out.apparently Tripper thought Bills title win would mean more in a one on one match-it didnt. there are more but I cant think of them at the moment how did Austing turning on WWF at Invasion make zero sense at all. it made alot of sense if you know Austin.Stever Austin was in WCW first & made his name there .Austin just rejoined the fed that made him first. alos goldberg did not deserve to win the title at all IN WWE . goldberg is piece of crap & HHH is right for what he did to goldberg . goldberg has no loyality to wrestling business unlike HHH who gives his whole life to wrestling. |
