I see Strowman getting a huge pop from the Mania crowd for dominating Goldberg.

After him showing up in the WWE All Stars advertisement, I think Randy Savage making his first appearance on RAW since before the Monday Night Wars would have blown the roof off.

Its not in the same league, but Kevin Owens running leap off the stage at last WrestleMania deserved a full on crowd pop, but happened to crickets because of the pandemic.
A lot of things got lost during the covid era tbh. Otis and Mandy getting together, Drew's win, The Hurt Business (I think they'd have been getting huge pops around summer when they were single handed wiping the floor with the entire 30 man Retribution stable)...

TNA are still absolute fools for not putting the title on Monty Brown when their main event scene was like pure WCW overload at the time. He could have so easily been a star for them. I'm sure that maybe the NWA connection at the time might have complicated things, but the NWA would have been fools to cry foul about it, if they did have any veto power to speak of by that point.

Vince and the heels beating someone shortly after WCW closed when Goldberg’s music hits and he destroys some goobers.

I'm sure that maybe the NWA connection at the time might have complicated things, but the NWA would have been fools to cry foul about it, if they did have any veto power to speak of by that point. No, it was Jarrett ego. Since he and daddy started the company and needed to feed his ego to convince everyone that he was a Main Eventer. The NWA had little say in who is or isn't champion when TNA was paying the NWA for the belts. TNA was the biggest branch at the time for the NWA until they broke off ties. Jarrett believe is was the biggest star and MEer. The NWA isn't that stupid to not listen to crowd reactions that legit turned on Jarrett is such a bad way. You can't have a crowd chanting "change the channel" and "drop the title" doesn't spell good things to company's image. Yet Jarrett continued to be the center of attention and champion. Having a reign of terror IMO even worst that HHH's. The fact as a heel he booked himself as super human didn't help.

I don't dispute that, outside to say that I do think that Jarrett being a champ made sense at points, especially since I get that a promoter needs the title in hands you know won't walk out on you or screw things up. Sure as hell not as much as he was, though, and Brown was definitely not the only victim of the Jarrett ego. Raven and Rhino got their momentum stepped all over, too, even if both of them briefly got to touch the world title. I fully agree that Jarrett's reign of terror was worse. Monty Brown was a risk, sure, since he was new, but he had charisma and explosive energy, and would have turned heads. "POUNCE, Period!" was the kind of shit they could have built a brand around, and not only did they piss it away for Jarrett, they lost interest in even using Monty that much more when Christian Cage came in.

Jarrett learned under Lawler in Memphis & this is what Lawler always did. Problem was, Memphis legit loved Lawler & wrestling audiences everywhere have largely been indifferent to Jeff Jarrett.

Because the turned Brown heel right after it, killing his momentium by making him another Jarrett stooge. You have to take risks when the iron got hot on a talent. Thats how you make your stars.

CM Punk making his surprise WWE return at a Raw in Chicago. To that end, Punk going away for a while after MITB, rather than two weeks later after Rey and Cena won the title in the same night.
