I could take 1999-2001 Shane McMahon in crazy hardcore/street fight type matches with him using weapons/shortcuts to stay afloat but when he was in regular matches or actually presented as a badass who could go toe to toe with your Kanes and Undertakers in fair fights it was some of the worst shit I've ever seen. Like him being able to take out all of Legacy by himself with his crappy punches. That hell in a cell match at Wrestlemania 32 is my least favorite match of all time. The booking of the match made it seem like they were equal. Shane wasn't running scared and using cheap shots. He was legit having strike exchanges with the Undertaker, kicking out of chokeslams, last rides and only lost because he missed a crazy jump from the top of the cell. And the match went THIRTY minutes. In kayfabe he basically put up a better fight against Taker at Mania than Cena/Bray/HHH/HBK/Punk/Edge/Batista/etc. HATED IT. Like at least Taker didn't look that bad, slow, or embarrass himself.. But speaking of Shane, how did he go from a kayfabe maybe 60/100 ability who even with his dad partnering with him couldn't handle one Stone Cold.. to suddenly being a big badass hanging with nearly anyone. Even Vince at Survivor Series 03 got his ass kicked by a prime deadman Edit Just remembered Shane's nonplussed reaction on raw when his dad told him he was fighting Undertaker. I disliked him as a performer ever since then.

I got very confused for a minute and assumed there had been an allegation. Given who he is and the very clear lines he makes people draw about him, if there was anything untoward going on/gone on, someone would definitely have spilt those beans. Yeah I am very confused by what's been said

Watching The Last Ride. Regarding that dreadful Reigns Undertaker match with an injured and past it Taker.. they should maybe have forgone trying to do an epic match like Taker HBK etc and just done a bunch of brawling in the crowd, tons of weapons, maybe a table spot, then get in the ring, one or two finisher kick outs and go home.

I'd rather see Bo as The Fiend. I'm probably in the minority, but I thought the whole "Uncle Howdy" thing was one of the worst things in Bray's run, but I also wasn't a fan of his final run. Just felt like a lot of fluff and no direction. But bringing Bo in as The Fiend, you raise a lot of questions and uncertainties and I think Bo could work that character in ring a bit better than Bray did. Now would I bring back any other characters? Yeah, probably the Firefly Fun House puppets could play a role and Eric Rowan would be great to see again as an obstacle. I don't know if I'd want him as the fiend either... Bray's final run was not great and Uncle Howdy was a big part of why. ----Bray had a lot of ideas and was very creative but some of the stuff he wanted to do was not really made for the medium of Professional wrestling---- Most if it tbh

I get this may not be popular with some of you and perhaps this is a bit out of left field but the only opponent who makes sense to me, storyline wise, is Matt Hardy.

"Oh my god, Sheamus!" may be his greatest call yet. It's.. Sheamus.

Genuine question, not intended to be snarky - and no offence to those worried for Mick Foley's wellbeing! But is there any precedent of a wrestler doing themself serious damage in a one-off post retirement match? (Other than Mickey Rourk in The Wrestler...) I totally get it when people compete beyond their prime in boxing or MMA, or in wrestling with a full-time schedule. Maybe I'm naive but I'm a bit surprised people think old guys can't have a one-off pretend fight - especially with another experienced hand. Taker and Goldberg nearly killed each other. Triple H tore his pec in Saudi. All I can recall

Didn’t his neurologist tell him that in 2012 one more bump even if taken correctly, would be disastrous for his brain which caused Mick to cancel his potential feud with Jon Moxley at SSlam 2012? I always thought that the brain couldn’t heal but then again I am not a neurologist. It's bad enough he wants one more match, but thankfully it isn't with Moxley, although I'm sure he'd take it easy on Mick IF Mick wanted him to. Yes and at that WWE game presser where Austin and Flair were at (I think the entertaining one where Flair got drunk) Mick said he cannot wrestle ever again

I've no earthly idea why sixty year old overweight, destroyed body Mick Foley thought he could even take one back bump and be able to get back up. He knows his body and brain can't take any of this. He he has said he can't go on rollercoasters anymore because they rattle his head around too much after his history of concussions.
There is no way he could even take a scoop slam now, hell an overdrive, or any weaker move. And to think he planned on doing a hard core match.

He'd taken an ass kicking that whole weekend and heroically sacrificed himself. Its okay.

Only if a bunch of dudes end up sponsored by RAID SHADOW LEGENDS. Is that actually a real game?
