I've posted this elsewhere but this just came to my mind, for Cena's final match, no matter who he faces, the special referee should be Kurt Angle. He's still on good terms with the company and it would be a good way to go "full circle".

The Hulk Hogan/Giant Gonzales confrontation:

Possibly Mexico?

Sabu's 1993 dark match:

I was impressed by R-Truth's interview. After years of comedy, it's good to see that he can pull off serious promos too.

To be fair, it was all behind a paywall (there's also Benoit stuff on Netflix).

Another issue is that they're skipping over shows that had Chris Benoit. Now, I have no problem with them cutting out his matches, but why get rid of the whole show? Given the format of wrestling, it's not like it affects continuity if they removed his matches.

You'd think it would be chock full of matches involving Austin, Taker (as Mark Callous), Cactus Jac, Terra Ryzing/Jean Paul LeVeque (obviously), etc. Kind of a " before they were stars" thing.

I think I'm coming around more to Hank and Tank. Didnt really care for them when they first came up, but they've been getting more entertainng and are actually solid workers.

And it doesnt look like the women's division will be getting any bigger, Naomi has been talking in interviews about how she may be winding down her career soon.

Speaking of Hogan, he apparently is a Toni Storm fan: https://www.f4wonline.com/news/aew/hulk-hogan-praises-aew-timeless-toni-storm/

I think Orton along with CM Punk is the last of Cena's major rivals to still be active to be honest. A Cena/Orton/Punk 3 way wouldnt be bad actually (has that combo happened yet?).

What was with all of the lights in the audience during the Zayn/Breaker match?

And then WCW named him Vincent when he came to the company. Of course, this goes WAY back, according to Death of the Territories, JCP had a jobber named Vince McMann in the early 80s (footage of that is one of my lost media white whales).

Which makes it kind of funny considering when Rotundo returned to WCW it was as VK Wallstreet, an obviously blatant shot at Vince.

I noticed that when Backlund pinned Graham for the title, Graham put his foot on the ropes. Was that supposed to happen or was it just an accident?

As someone on another board pointed out, someone should have pulled a Norm MacDonald and deliberately sabotaged the roast.

It's harder to set up the cage as opposed to lowering it from the ceiling.

Forget what I said, apparently Survivor Series is in Petco Park this year, which is an open air stadium, so I guess they wont be able to do War Games, at least not at Survivor Series.

If we get a new Dangerous Alliance, lets hope we get a War Games match with them (DA vs Sting's Squadron is generally considered the best War Games match, and while I dont know if a WWE version could be better, it might be just as entertaining).

I'd argue you could blame that on Savage/Warrior. Heck, you could even go back to 1987 and Steamboat/Savage and Hogan/Andre. Good matches to be sure, but they did have that "epic" style to them.

I've heard BTW that AAA only owns the rights to 1997 and up footage, and that Televisa owns the pre-97 footage, so even the benefit of having AAA footage is still limited (if they even do anything with it).

I didnt watch the whole HOF but Luger's speech and the speeches by Tenta's family and Fred Ottman were genuinely touching (it's a shame that Fred will only be known for the Shockmaster falling over, as he seems like a truly nice individual).

Decided to bring back this thread. Now this next one is a cheat as WCW Saturday Night WAS the A-Show back in 1993, but I couldnt resist posting this incredibly fun big vs little match:
