Paid Members Onyx2 Posted February 1, 2017 Paid Members Posted February 1, 2017 No matter what anybody has said about him and the role his relationship with Stephanie had in his ascension... Triple H tells a great story on his most recent doc, of how he went to the Undertaker when he was going to date Stephanie. Undertaker advised him that he would have to put up with an asterisk beside his name no matter his achievements. Fair play to Trips, bar an early 2000s bit of shadiness the things he has built outshine the fact that he got there by being family. He hasn't just lazed around on the board.
Sphinx Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 My impression is Steph wouldn't be with a man who isn't really driven and with that kind of work ethic too. Oedipus complex maybe.
Briefcase Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 The New Day did the HOF on Saturday night (and no doubt were preparing beforehand), did WM rehearsals afterwards into the early hours of Sunday morning, then were back at Axxess at like 8am in the morning, then were at Mania itself later that day. Crazy schedule for these superstars, they probably get very little sleep over Mania weekend.
Guest Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 There's always something to get choked up at on these shows, reminding me why I'm a wrestling fan and could never be anything else. Magnificent work.
Abe_Knuckleball_Schwartz Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Really enjoyed WWE24, thought it was a great insight into what goes on and into putting on a event like Wrestlemania. The part about leaving the Hall of Fame in the early hours and then straight on to A&T to rehearse, was an eye opener for sure. For someone who doesnt watch a lot of the current product, I was moved by Zack Ryder's story and the obstacles he has had to overcome.
Guest Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Zack Ryder has got to go down as one of their bigger missed opportunities. I never knew his story, had genuine fire and passion inside him. Whatever you think of him there's no reason he can't be a strong upper mid card face, has a likeability factor that doesn't grow on trees
Paid Members Daaaaaad! Posted February 1, 2017 Paid Members Posted February 1, 2017 I said to my wife about Zack, though, that for as much as it's great to see how much he's gone through and achieved, ultimately as long as you're telling people 'I just want to hear my music at WrestleMania' you won't ever achieve that much, because they'll still call you a geek. EDIT: Oh, a fantastic documentary as always by the way. On one hand I'm glad they don't do these too often or they'd get dull, but I would gladly watch twice as many as now.
Paid Members BigJag Posted February 3, 2017 Paid Members Posted February 3, 2017 WWE 24 is brilliant. Watching the WM 30 one. After having watched the one for last years Mania. I'd forgotten the WM 30 was when Warrior was inducted into the HOF.

WyattSheepMask Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Have they worked out a deal with Bret over the Stampede footage then? Last time they uploaded Stampede to the network, he threw his toys out of the pram and it disappeared
Paid Members JNLister Posted February 13, 2017 Paid Members Posted February 13, 2017 Have they worked out a deal with Bret over the Stampede footage then? Last time they uploaded Stampede to the network, he threw his toys out of the pram and it disappeared WWE owns the rights to Stampede matches other than ones with Bret in. Bret owns the rights to his matches, which somebody in WWE Network didn't know when they put those shows up before.
Otto Dem Wanz Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 They've uploaded a match from 1952?! Christ, I'm interested in that for the way the footage looks alone.
WyattSheepMask Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Ah, I thought they owned all of it. Makes sense that he'd be a bit moany in that case
