What was the major storyline in WWE when you joined FAN?

[darbus alan]

January 2006. I think that was the middle of Edge's first WWE Championship reign?

On that note, holy f*** I've been on this board for over 12 years?!?!

[Deleted]

The 2016 draft and the return of the brand extension.

[Perd]

November 2nd, 2009

I had no idea and had to look it up. It was the guest host era. The Raw before I joined had the Kofi Johnston incident. And that’s about it.

[Texas Tornado]

I joined late December 2009 (what a weird time to join), so I guess the build for the HBK/Taker rematch at WM 26?

[disorganisedchaos v:2]

On this account it was Jeff about to face Punk at Night Of Champions.

There was an ECW episode that night too. Sounds fun.

Singles Match: 
Nikki Bella (w/ Brie Bella) defeated Katie Lea (2:33)

Singles Match: Shelton Benjamin defeated Yoshi Tatsu (10:26)

Singles Match: Ezekiel Jackson defeated Jack Mecidol (1:46)

ECW Heavyweight Title #1 Contendership Match: Christian defeated Vladimir Kozlov (5:35)

September 2010 after lurking for three or four years. I guess the Nexus angle was the biggest story at that point although that was starting to cool off after Cena beat them at Summerslam. If I remember I think the whole Kane beating the Undertaker into a "vegetative state" angle was the main program on Smackdown.

2008 December 30, so around the Jeff/Matt feud, although I'm pretty sure I was lurking around 2008 Wrestlemania or even before that.

[The Foreigner™: PreSZN]

I first read this forum in mid-2005, so the big story was Cena's big push and fan reaction.

I made my account in September 2014, after Lesnar Supex City'd Cena at SummerSlam and Rollins had his weird feud with Reigns that was interrupted by the hernia. (I still think the original plan was for Ambrose to show up and turn heel on Reigns.)

[Bob Schlapowitz]

January 2006.

I guess Edge vs. Cena.

[King Devitt and the Woke Mob]

I'd been a lurker on the old Wrestlecrap forums for a spell, but officially joined June 29th 2005.

Batista and Cena were in the midst of their initial crownings as champion, beginning the over decade long Super-Cena reign of terror that would eventually make me watch less and less.
HHH was finally putting someone over in a big way.
One Night Stand was earlier in the month, so that was nice.

Bret Hart was going to wrestle Vince McMahon. The match ended up leaving a lot to be desired.

[thetower52]

I’m pretty sure I lurked here for a few years but my ogguvsl join fate was September 15th 2011.
I have no idea what was happning then. Can anyone help me out

[riseofsetian1981]

What year was the Summer of Punk? I joined in 2010 but I didn't really get into the full swing of things here on FAN until about 2011ish I believe. So I think it was the Summer of Punk.

[Steveweiser]

August 2007, a couple of months after the Benoit double murder/suicide, and WWE were about to build to SummerSlam with Cena and Orton in the main event.

[ayumidah]

hmmm I joined in February 2012 but I know I lurked before that for awhile off and on. the Ryder/Eve/Cena triangle was going on, and Punk/Daniel were champions leading into Elimination Chamber.

[schma]

Orton beat Cena to unify the titles in a match pretty much no one cared about. Authority was in full swing. AJ Lee was divas champ during the Total Divas vs True Divas. CM Punk beat the shield in a 3 on 1 handicap while Daniel Bryan lost to the Wyatts in a 3 on 1 handicap match. This was a couple weeks before Bryan became a Wyatt and about a month before Bryan revealed he wasn't a Wyatt and Batista won the Royal Rumble and CM Punk left the company. Man, I joined the boards at a pretty insane time. Also, I'm closing in on five years here. Time flies.

[Allie Kitsune]

My original account was accidentally deleted in 2009, so I don't know when that join date was, but I want to say it was sometime in 2005.

So probably the Big Dave/HHH feud.

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

The Punk pipebomb angle was right around when I started posting somewhat regularly

[Tenshigure]

I was a lurker for nearly a decade no joke...finally decided to register after the other forum I was live reacting on (RIP Spoony Forums) was not worth the politics anymore. If I were to put a year on it, I'd say somewhere around '05-'06, but since my registration says 2015...I guess you can say this pretty much sums up what was going in the WWE (both with this storyline...and Roman Reigns as a whole):
