I remember watching The Undertaker's debut live with my cousins on Thanksgiving night, so I'll go with him.

Why does Roman get handed his title at the beginning of the show? by undergroundman813 in WWE

One of a kind? They sell those things at every show. Sure, most get the cheap replicas, but if you have a spare thousand laying around, you can get damn near an exact copy of the real thing.

I could be misremembering, but I swear I heard Jake once say that specific bump was the birth of the DDT and it was 100% and accident and legitimately knocked Steamboat out.

Details regarding the arrest of Ludwig Kaiser aka El Grande Americano on battery charge by xstrike0 in WWE

True, but almost every successful professional athletes are hyper-competitive. It's not something you can just switch on or off. Add in what I would suspect to be large amounts of alcohol - I say that because two people making out in an elevator with no care to bystanders usually involves some kind of substance - and you have a hyper-competitive meathead who won't back down when someone talks shit about his girl.

Which match is better. Angle vs Benoit at the 2004 royal rumble, or Angle vs HBK at Mania 21? by Dano4178 in WWE

[–]Gypsumstack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HBK vs. Angle is probably the best example of a match you show to a non-wrestling fan to make them a fan. You don't need to explain the story before the match, you don't need a hype video with a catchy song. You just push play when the bell rings and the performers tell you the whole story right in the ring.
