Wrestling Angles You’re Sure Only Existed Because of a Genie

[KAMALARAMBO: BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!]

Like the old school genies where they would corrupt your wish and it would end up horrible.

Thread inspired by that time Kurt Angle won all the titles in TNA.

At the time I was wondering why Mick Foley kept over turning Benoît title wins when everyone else was allowed to win by shenanigans so Mick is the genie "you win but you didn't say anything about keeping it"

American hero and everyman, "son of a plumber", Dusty Rhodes comes to the WWF to kick ass and take names... In polka dots...

Can also be used for the Sheepherders.

I wish for Hitman to go to WCW

I love the Undertaker, Cursed Monkey Paw. Can there be two Undertakers?

[Alexander The So-so]

CM Punk having the WWE Championship for over a year.

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

Marty Jannetty vs. Joey Janela at the first Spring Break show was literally a wish granted from a genie who was Scott Hall for some reason.

Triple H, main eventer.

You want a Dean Ambrose heel turn? Fine. But he’s going to be a germaphobe who talks about having needles injected in his ass.

DDP: I want my angle with the Undertaker to go down in history! Did you see how big a pop I got just now on when I took off my hood!

GENINE: OK.....

While we're on the subject, I do recall right around the turn of the last decade there was a strong contingent wishing that the top champion of a company would defend the title a lot less which would, in theory, make the defenses all mean that much more and give what seemed like overexposure of the top star a rest.

We got it in ROH with Davey Richards' world title run with very few defenses - which sucked.

Then we got it in WWE with the Brock Lesnar reigns and his increasingly rare appearances.

So, I mean on paper we really had no modern precedent for such reigns and I can see why so many of us thought it'd be worth a try, but there wound up being no ironic twist. The Monkey's Paw was like "Really? Oooooooookay, if that's what you want, it just makes my job that much easier."

*everyone in 2002* - oh i wish we could see Scott Steiner in the WWE.

[Cvslfc123]

2005-2011- Oh I'd love to see Brock Lesnar come back, his first run was too short.

[El Pollo Guerrera]

*every ECW fan* Man, Taz would destroy everyone if he set foot in the WWF...

March 2001: Cool, this could take the business to even newer heights with all the dream matches that will take place. I mean, it's not like Vince McMahon can run WCW any worse than it's been run for the last year or so, right?

I hope that whatever’s in the Survivor Series egg is worth the investment of my time and money.
