"Ruthless Aggression" They had everyone saying it. I don't even know what it meant. Did WWE imply that previously their wrestlers have ruths and weren't aggressive? It was the idea to have a lot of the young guys step up their game and make a name for themselves during the transition period after the Attitude Era. And the fact that people still refer to that time as the Ruthless Aggression Era, means the term got over.

"WWF......UN-BEE-LEEV-ABBBBLLEEEEE!!!"
I remember Vince saying that a lot during the New Generation era.

Surprised nobody said Tensai. Dude comes in with a HUGE push and has wins over John Cena and CM Punk and still nobody cares and chants "ALBERT" all the time. He can't even beat Santino these days.

That was meant to be blatantly untrue, and the only thing that got Michelle McCool any heat. So that got over well enough.

Yep, this was one of the first things that came to mind for me. That and Drew McIntyre.

From the sounds of things, CM Punk as a heel.

More like fans who had spent hundreds of dollars on tickets to travel and see a title match got screwed over. It doesn't matter if the internet loves Daniel Bryan. He was hugely over with casual fans. It was a match many wanted to see. 18 seconds on your biggest PPV of the year, for your second biggest title is laughable. The crowd rightfully went dead and turned on them until Undertaker v Triple H. It was a terrible way to try and elevate Sheamus and it bit them royally in the ass. Well, for my opinion, Bryan/Sheamus was the match I was most looking forward to. Um, fans didn't come to see Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan, it wasn't the selling point of the show, Rock vs. Cena was. And being there live, the crowd wasn't dead the first hour, in fact, Sheamus got a huge pop for beating Bryan in 18 seconds. I don't even know why this match gets criticized so much. Bryan was a cowardly heel who won the championship while his opponent was lying on the mat, he kept the championship by the skin of his teeth through cheating and such, so its only fitting for his reign to end like that. In a lengthy match, Bryan would pull out all the stops to keep his title, and Sheamus was looking for an oppurtunity to prevent that, anybody else who thought of that would do the same thing. Plus, I thought it was a cool and unique way to start the show with an immediate world title change.
