Tsurutagun Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 75 out of 83. Bit harsh for them to call me a jabroni I thought Missed out on a bunch of mid 2010s title holder which I'll blame on the product being rubbish then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abe_Knuckleball_Schwartz Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 63 for me, I struggled with most after 2007. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fog Dude Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 63 here as well. Not too bothered about forgetting 4 of the first 6 and 3 of the last 5 champions, but I should've got far more of them from the 90s and 2000s. Spoiler Missed Patera, Morales, Santana, Valentine, Von Erich, Jannetty, Razor (!), Douglas, Mero, Shamrock, Godfather, Morrison, Umaga, Santino, Kofi, Miz, Axel, Langston, Ryback, Owens, Bálor, Nakamura and Zayn.

They gave him a “WrestleMania Moment” in a ladder match a few years ago. I think he lost it to the Miz the night after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 76. No surprise to me that the ten I missed were from more recent years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Wrestlemania 32. If memory serves me correctly, Adrian Neville was scheduled to win it but got injured about 3 weeks prior to the event, so Ryder took his place and got a 24hr reign out of it. Even got a photo of himself being a massive mark with Scott Hall, who he said was his favourite IC champ when he was younger. So, got his big moment that he was never meant to have due to someone else going down injured only to have it taken away from him a day later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 There's some fun little quizzes on ITR, the Wrestlemania one's are frustratingly hard as you've got to be ultra specific with city names and stadium names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those things that get blocked out of memory. What a shit name, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted March 18, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) I got 85/86 in about ten minutes. Put simply I reached the point where I forgot the actual lineage/memorable champions from particular periods and started stabbing in current names that I vaguely remember have won it, then backtracked thinking “who was half decent and would have won it.” I really wasn’t that annoyed at the one I forgot because (a) debate as to whether he was actually decent (b) he only had it a day. Shame, he seems a lovely bloke. EDIT - well, it’s been spoiled already, so I was talking about Ryder. EDIT - reviewing the list, especially some of the most marginal guys where it was a stretch to remember like “who was between those two” or “and he won it from....” it’s remarkable the drop-off in required star power to win that belt that snuck in somewhere between 95-99 and got worse as time progressed. Looking at some of the people who just “had a run” and wore that belt compared to legends and fantastic performers that never held it - men as over as Jake the Snake, the Million Dollar Man, The Model and Big Boss Man by the standards of other times would have merited a go, as we’ve discussed no end. Although one serious outlier is Kid/X-Pac. If anyone deserved a go with the belt changing every week in 1999, it was him. Still, there’s a flip side. In today’s era of a thousand belts, Mideon & Viscera would be five-time tag team champions by now. Swings and roundabouts.

I put in X-Pac, The Kid, The Lightening Kid, The 123 Kid, Sean Waltman even put in Syxx-Pac incase they got confused but nothing, I then accepted that he didn't win it.

Ha not just me then? 70 - couldn’t for the life of me remember Patera and Muraco but flew through the rest up to and including 1996/97 then started patchily picking names from all over the shop between then and now. Missed some fairly obvious ones - incl Ziggler (which probably says more about him than me) & RVD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
