Remember when the geezers had their abomination at World Cup?
Or when Lesnar hit 5 F5s on Strowman at World Cup?
Or when Shane McMahon won the World Cup at World Cup?
Retconning real life events is so stupid.

Remember when they changed the name of the May PPV from Over The Edge to Judgment Day? And then they said, hey Dean Malenko, why don't you dawn the Blue Blazer gimmick for your European Title match on that night?

I call NEWZ on this being from Rajah. If it was really them it'd say "WWE may or may not be changing the name."

This was one of the worst WWE shows of all time.
That main event was depressing to watch

Only the second one was called Crown Jewel and there was no indication moving forward that that was going to be the name. This reads really weird to me, I think it's just Rajah.com on that Rajah.com shit again

I did notice Braun called it that during his promo on Raw. I thought he just misspoke, but maybe not.
Yoo bad “A Futile and Stupid Gesture” was already taken.

-- WWE will no longer be calling or referring to any Saudi Arabia wrestling events as "World Cup" due to the "negative connotation" the name had developed last year. Instead, the event has now been renamed as the "Starrcade."

Controversy surrounding event aside, the event itself sucked, and the main event being a sad mess was emblematic of that.

I haven't watched a single moment of that show other than whatever stills they've showed on other wwe shows. I'm kinda proud of myself for sticking to my guns about it.

All you missed is several hours of you saying "Dear me, This is terrible" on either moral or wrestling fan grounds. Seriously, it's like they held December to Dismember at Jared Fogles house.
