Bradshaw and Windham were in the process of being repackaged as the New Blackjacks. Plus with the luchadors added to the match, somebody had to miss out. Why were all those random luchadors in the match anyway? The story goes that they were trying/hoping to get 70,000 in San Antonio and cement HBK as "the" top guy in the business. Problem was that the advanced sales were shit so they had to fill seats/ save face any way that they could. As the show came closer seats were going for as cheap as $10, but they still couldnt get the place filled. They ended up striking a deal with AAA, which was over big in San Antonio, in an attempt to get more seats filled...and flesh out the undercard of a MASSIVELY thin roster. On the show they announce attendance as over 60k, according to Cornette over 12.5K of those were comps.

Because of this thread I learned that "Pro Wrestlers vs Zombies" is an actual movie. I am half-tempted to search for it. As a compassionate human being, I am obliged to suggest you avoid this.

I love the idea of Baron Corbin: Paradoxically Clueless and Knowledgeable. I'd love Corbin to have a gimmick like Micheal Keaton from the Other Guys but with professional wrestling. Dont go chasin waterfalls.

One of the most pathetic and depressing runs I've ever seen. I don't want to be the one guy left beating a dead horse, but the entire thing served only as a way for HHH to effectively kill CM Punk, stroke HHHs ego, and make HHHs old pal some money in the process. It made no sense any way you look at it other than a HHH ego trip.
And while Im at it, Punks biggest mistake was that he didn't just go full on nuclear with his stuff. I think he tried way too hard to do business with the others and kind of came out looking like a tepid doofus. Had he gone full mid 90s HBK on them, like he is/was capable of doing, they simply couldn't have kept up with him. I legit think Punk was trying to make a bit of peace and play nice and it didn't do him any favors.

It doesn't happen often, but in professional wrestling there are moments etched in time that you can pinpoint as the exact moment that something happened/didn't happen that lead to a performers demise.

Young rapper Cena should have gone over Lesnar for the title in 2003. I feel dirty for typing that. Heel rapper Cena was basically a glorified lower carder who had the benefit of the brand split keeping half the top stars from eating up all the TV time. It wasn't until he turned face that we were supposed to "take him seriously". Not at all disagreeing with this, but if Miz can walk into and out of WrestleMania as the champion surely 2003 Cena could have been champion.

What sort of logic or method would you use to pick a gimmick name if you signed in NXT? We've all read the stories about how Sami Zayn, Finn Balor and Kevin Owens mixed their actual names or cultural history and stuff like that but then we get guys like Luke Harper and his indy name of Brodie Lee - why those names? His gimmick surnames become Harper Lee - is he a fan of the books? So what would you use as a methology for your ring name? IIRC he chose Brodie Lee because he looked/looks like actor Jason Lee. Jason Lees character in Mallrats was named Brodie Bruce. He just combined the character (who is fairly iconic) and actor and came up with Brodie Lee.
