They even tried the nWo POSE!  Big Sexy Lashley Hollywood Drew McInytre Bad Guy Corbin Shouldn't Corbin be Hogan since he was the leader? Lashley and McIntyre were like his backup like Hall and Nash were for Hogan. Also does anyone remember how this trio ended? Did they have some sort of official breakup? I mainly just remember them beating the crap out of Braun a bunch of times. Didn't they do something where they lost to a reformed Shield before Ambrose left? Then I remember McIntyre then becoming a flunky of Shane's along with Elias. Looking back it really seems like they had no idea what to do with Drew his first year and a half back. Went from being a lackey of Dolph Ziggler's to a lackey of Corbin to a lackey of Shane McMahon before they strapped the rocket to him out of nowhere with the Rumble win which led to him turning face and beating Brock at Mania. I believe they just outright ended it without no conclusion after The Shield final match. They were feuding with Strowman and then it just went to Lashley feuding with him. Lashley lost to Braun and took time off. Corbin won King of The Ring that summer. Drew was feuding with Roman then joined with Shane and then he broke off from him and started his singles run |

There must have a decent bit in between though. The Corbin/Lashley/McIntyre trio was late 2018-early 2019. The Roman dog food feud was late 2019-early 2020 as they fought at the 2020 Royal Rumble. He was also King Corbin by that point. Oh man. See this definitely goes to show that the shows were not memorable at the time if everything felt like it blended in. WWE 2016-17 I could definitely know the time and space on stuff. 2018-2020 it all felt the same honestly. 2005 to 2008 is the other period like that for me. Everything felt the same when it came to the wrestlers and who was getting pushed so it just all blends together. At least in 2009 I can kind of start to remember as at least you some fresh faces like Sheamus and McIntyre showing up and getting big pushes or guys like Ziggler and Kofi getting bigger roles. I think it's just a product of this era with wrestlers lasting so much longer now a days. Like if you watch say the 1990 Survivor Series and then watch the 1992 Survivor Series it feels totally different. Or if you watch Summerslam 1995 and then watch Summerslam 1997 it feels totally different. If you watch the 2018 Royal Rumble and then watch the 2020 Royal Rumble it feels very much like the same show. |

Raw was okay but at least I remembered all those guest hosts and stuff. Which Smackdown was ON FIRE in 2009. I loved that roster and so much of that stuff is still memorable to this day. I even remember the hoss battles of Undertaker vs. Kozlov and Festus vs. Kozlov. Some real bangers then! |

That's gotta be the worst group of the last 5 years at least. I was going to say Retribution was worse, but Retribution at least had the stupid masks and names to dunk on. Corbin, Lashley, and McIntyre together were just boring. Retribution was definitely worst. At least Corbin, Lashley, and McIntyre were booked as formidable. Retribution to be such a joke and laughing stock after all the hype makes them the worst imo. Retribution’s badness gradually became fun to mock at. No such thing for Corbin and Friends. |
