Villaphan04 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 the rumble last night was intense. Gunther is a star, it's only a matter of time before he wins the world title. Cody was not a surprise, but man it feels like Sami/Roman is going to completely overshadow that -- especially with Jey doing what he did last night.

Demitri_C Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Probably the most predictable rumble ever. It was abit of a yawn fest for me as you knew who would win both The best part Spoiler The ending that was a brilliant ending. Was not expecting zayn to turn on roman more the other way round so that was a good sweve Also think the logan paul ricochet double collison was brilliant although logan paul absolutely sucks as a person the guys probably the talented non wrestler/celeb there has ever been The booking of edge and lesnar for this rumble was atrocious Also that big botch for nia jax was hilarious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me Austin winning the belt for the 1st time, DX still as a three before the New Age Outlaws joined (the next night on Raw if I recall reversing the Cactus Jack Terry Funk victory) and the first Undertaker Kane match with Kane still mystical and going through the roster leading up to Mania (twatted Vader with a steel pipe I think) and the Undertaker returning to fight his brother after being 'burned alive in a casket and facing his first real test as the streak developed, add Mike Tyson and Ken Shamrock 'snapping' its 14 all the way for me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that's not exactly a niche view but it was just so so good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted March 27, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted March 27, 2023 15 was also excellent. Although I'm biased because it's the first one I properly watched as real fan. I was half into wrestling the year before, but Jan 1999 was when I got fully sucked in and I was completely obsessed with it for about 3 or 4 years. And I was a proper mark for those first couple of years at least. Obviously I knew it was predetermined, but I was able to completely suspend my disbelief and watch it as if it was genuine competition. When The Rock lost to Stone Cold at WM15 I was genuinely gutted. Like Villa had lost a cup final (Yeah I know Stone Cold was the face then but I just loved The Rock) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Wasn't the undercard for WM15 notoriously bad? My vote would go to 17 too, although 19 is also great (but perhaps less fondly remembered by fans aged 35+ as it's firmly ruthless aggression era). Unrelated, but TNT (the promotion!) are running a death match tournament in Brum, at Lab11 in Digbeth on 14th July. Joey Janela is the only wrestler announced so far, but you'd have to expect Big Joe (really starting to make a name for himself) and Clint Margera, maybe Session Moth? If they announce Drew Parker, I'm there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
