Hornswoggle spray painting the hole in the wall to get away from Carlito is legit one of my favorite segments in wrestling history. That has to be shameful! Also, I love everything Snitsky related. I can quote some of his promos on Kane to this day

I think Charlotte is already the greatest women's wrestler of all time.
I find Asuka the the most annoying talent in WWE right now.
Daniel Bryan should be nowhere near the the main event scene at this stage of his career, He brings nothing to the table. He is an instant channel changer for me.

I think not giving The Brian Kendrick a World Title run was a colossal mistake. That gimmick is one of my favorite heel characters of all time. In fact, a weasely little guy that everybody wants to see get his ass kicked would have been a perfect person to lose to Sheamus in 18 seconds.
I loved Santino and thought he could have been really popular as an underdog babyface with a big push if he kept 90% of his silliness and started being more "serious" during matches.
I enjoyed Matt Striker on commentary.

I miss the bikini contests and stuff like that with the women and I think there’s still a spot for that kind of stuff in the WWE.

Sometimes I like female wrestlers primarily for their looks. I know it's wrong, which is why I'm listing it as a shameful opinion, and not something that's right or that I'm proud of. True story: It is ok to find someone physically attractive. It's a human instinct for a reason.

I think the Vince vs God angle was hilarious, and I still watch the promos and match for Backlash 2006 to this day and laugh my ass off. The promo in the church was hilarious.Vince said something like "smite me down" and Shane looks worried and takes a step away form his Dad.

I’m an unashamed Miz fan. I enjoyed his title run and thought Mania focused too much on Cena and Rock. The latter part is probably not that shameful of an opinion.

I didn’t think Wade Barrett was ready to be world champ during the Nexus run, and I was okay with Miz getting the belt instead. I don’t mind Stephanie when she’s in the ring or just playing HHH’s second. While I am bored with the Evil GM trope as a whole, she’s got great old school manager appeal, and I thought she did super well in that WM34 mixed tag with Ronda and Angle. It's a crying shame that the timing wasn't better because within about a year of the Nexus ending, Barrett improved his in ring work and found his niche/comfort character wise. THAT version of him would have been good enough for a title run. Stephanie's performance against Brie Bella and in the aforementioned tag match were way better than they should have been considering what little ring experience she's had

True story: It is ok to find someone physically attractive. It's a human instinct for a reason. Lol dude I know. Just thinking they are hot isn't wrong. I mean it's probably wrong for me to be rooting for one over the other in a match because "she's hotter" instead of talent or wrestling skill.

The Fiend is overrated. Especially the Firefly Funhouse, Which is honestly one of the stupidest things i've ever seen in wrestling history. & Alexa Bliss isn't that good, Nothing more than a Harley Quinn rip-off & she has a toxic fanbase.

Stephanie’s excellent heel work was a major reason that mixed tag worked as well as it did.

WWE's recent focus on workrate is actively harming the product.

WWE's recent focus on workrate is actively harming the product. Right, not every match needs two segments. Give that time to other people we don't see often like Nikki Cross, Angel Garza, Peyton Royce, and Aleister Black.

It sucks that her career had to end the way that it did, but I liked Paige more as an authority figure than as a wrestler. Not sure if that's shameful or not.

I still appreciate Benoit in the ring and still watch his matches. In ring he is IMO still one of the most entertaining to watch.

Her Smackdown GM run was good, but it does suck that she had to miss out on having matches with Asuka, Kairi Sane, some of the current NXT women, the Women's Rumble, and Elimination Chamber.

-I prefer funny/smartass heels than serious/badass heels.
-If I had to choose between the Boneyard Match and the Firefly Funhouse Match from WM 36? Firefly Funhouse any day.
-I kind of wish CM Punk hadn't dropped that Pipe Bomb all those years ago and had made some of the changes he wanted to make from the inside and more quietly. Because, as popular as it made him, I think that's where the beginning of the end for him in the WWE began.

I don’t want to turn it into a thread or discussion about ‘that weekend,’ but I always found Chris Benoit (the wrestler, because I know we always have to stress that) boring as hell.

- Firefly Funhouse makes me cringe
- Xavier Woods is obnoxious, shouldn't be a face
- Golbergs WWE theme is better than his WCW theme
- Zelina Vega was overrated
- Sami Zayn ruined his character by managing Cesaro/Nakamura and dressing like Skinner
- Beth Phoenix is not a good talker/announcer.
- Asuka is stale
