americanharley said:This past weekend I have been watching the best of Raw DVD's and I have come up with some things that I miss on the show:
Stables: Remember all the big stables, The Ministry, The Corporate Minsitry, DX, The Nation, The Union etc.
Good title defenses on Raw: When was the last time there was a great heavyweight title match with some stipulation(cage, first *****, ladder, etc.)
Wrestlers wearing jeans: Now-a-days it seems like they all have to wear tights. It just seemed more real when guys like Stone Cold, Bart Gunn, Davey Boy Smith and so would wear just normal jeans to their matches.
The Attitude Era: Easily argued as the best the WWE had to offer.
A few other things but these were some key things I noticed. Any thoughts? Any other feelings?

Also, how did Mysterio and Batista lose?
The bar that Josh Mathews was in was The Friendly Tap which is owned by WWE referee Tim White. Tim portrayed the ***** at the bar who ****** himself. White noted during the segment: "Hell in a Cell ruined my life. I've been in pain for over two years and took it out on everyone I know. My wife left me. My friends are all gone. I got nothin'. You know what pain is? I don't think you do. I got everything there is and nothing to live for," he said. "Everything is gone. Get away from me." Josh also wished White a "very white Christmas." WWE has presented tasteless angles in the past, but this is perhaps a new low. What is Vince honestly thinking these days?Death_blooms08 said:So whats up with the Friendly Tap scene?
I **** to speak in these terms but, Fuck Brock. They(WWE) gave him a contract and another chance and he blew them off. His first exit was bad enough but trying to get back in the second time and then just letting it pass by:thefinger I hope that Vince can restrain and deny Brock another chance, if the occasion happens.TheLegendKiller said:the best finishing move of all time has to be brock lesnars F5 ....i really wish he would come back to the wwe
That too, but what I am mainly reffering to is after he failed at the NFL, he was offered a new contract from the WWE, and then he blew it off.TheLegendKiller said:yeah i heard he turned down a $47million 7yr contract to go for a NFL tryout ...he did fuck that career move up but you gotta admit brock lesnar was a "franchise" type wrestler the only person he has to blame for this mess is himself
Death_blooms08 said:Because of being gone for so long and having not starting watching WWE until lately, just wondering what happened to all the big name superstars:
Goldberg, Rock (did he give up on wrestling to act?), Stone Cold (injured?), Dudley Boys, and some of the others......just went brain dead. Is there a site that has a list of wrestlers and what happened to them or do you just check the gossip/news columns for info as it comes?
