I swear to god if they pipe in a 5 minute long Hogan chant over the speakers (and he sells it like it's the real thing ala Undertaker at his farewell speech)...

It's geratics on parade! The problem here is dragging these old timers for a one time appearance does nothing except a nostaglia gimmick.
I'm sorry Torrie and Beth. You are both beautiful.

Melina and Alica Fox under the same roof. Are you guys thinking what I’m thinking... That the term “Legend “ is being thrown around rather loosely? For WWE it's been a term for "former talent" for the longest time now.

My only hope is that Carlito returns full-time like MVP and Shelton did so we continue the mid 2000s resurgence. The forgotten generation of stars coming back to take their spot at the top rules. DiBiase Posse when?

USA apparently wanted more adult content. Who's more adult than senior citizens?

I don't know anything about TV but is getting say, an extra 2 or 3 hundred thousand viewers for one week and then going back to low numbers the next week really satisfying USA's complaints?
Like hey guys look how mildly popular these old guys still are! Hope you enjoyed that one! Problem solved!

Like hey guys look how mildly popular these old guys still are! Hope you enjoyed that one! Problem solved! My favorite was around the time Raw was about 2.5-3m and the Raw 25th special happened, they gained about 5 or so million in viewers compared to the last week and then that audience dropped to the point they were at literally the same amount as that previous week. So that massive amount of fans coming back all didn’t come back the week after.

Obviously it would be better to gain viewers and hold them but I’m not sure that’s really possible anymore. They’ve been bleeding viewers on Raw for at least 6-7 years straight.

It's been way too long since we've seen Ric Flair and Big Show on WWE television.
If there's one thing TLC missed, it was the Big Show's comically oversized ladder.

I used to care for the nostalgia moments.
It came to be that I used to care for them more than the regular moments.
And now I don't care about either.
.........a twinge of regret, but this too shall pass...
