Yes numbers. Nobody I hate more than Hogan in rasslin. I can remember when the mega powers broke up and I still wore my Macho Man shirt to school kids would rip me for liking the "bad guy".

Agreed. Can Show and Kane stop being in main event matches? Like please.

It was heavenly not hearing Cole though.

My favorite story/rumor about Hogan is/was that in the late 90s up until his beef with Russo, he was trying to get Yokozuna to go to WCW so he could get his win back

Mine is when he refused to job to Michaels in 05 or whatever it was, so Michaels made a complete mockery of the match with epic over-selling.

michaels doing the larry king interview as hogan is still one of the funniest things ever.

One of my favorite promos of all time is one that Michaels cut in the build up to that match. Hogan had asked for Michaels to be turned heel for their match, and VInce had told him to act like the 1997 version of HBK. So Shawn goes out and cuts a blistering promo about how much Hogan sucks and how he won't lay down for him, and finishes it off by asking VInce if he's happy the old Shawn is back. Phenomenal stuff.

The HBK overselling thing at Summerslam 2005 was legendary. So great because fuck Hogan.

i'm only a casual observer, but the main faces in wwe are terrible to me right now (outside of bryan and ziggler)

cena and reigns are just boring...i hate absolutely everything about ryback...i'm not overly familiar with orton, but i'm sure he's a better heel

on the flipside i really like rollins, lesnar, and wyatt

Agree with your face comments. I am not a Ryback fan but he is pretty damn over. I could see a push from him. Hopefully he doesn't tilt anymore pelvises. I miss Punk. :(

Orton is a way better heel yes.

Sami Zayn in NXT I think can be a mega star if they push him and market him the right way.

Hard not to be. Guy is a workhorse and a once in a generation talent/athlete.

Watch this match if you have not seen it. Brock's New Japan stuff was great.

any chance of a jericho return? i'd love to see him back...i was a huge fan of him in wcw, but stopped watching wrestling while he was in his wwe prime

i listened to his interview with rollins yesterday too...made me like rollins even more

I'd be shocked if Jericho doesn't come back. He loves it too much and is too good at it. I think Vince will go balls out for Mania 32. I expect Rock back, Taker, maybe Sting, probably Jericho, Mayyyyyyyyyyybe Austin (fingers corssed), etc. Jericho is one of the best all around guys ever. Nothing he couldn't do. He had some great matches with Punk and Wyatt when he was back and I'd love to see Bryan/Jericho or Rollins/Jericho get 20 mins at Mania.

The guy that I want to see back more than anyone(other than Punk, but thats impossible for at least a few years,) is Angle. I'd love to see what kind of matches he could have with some of the current roster.

Agreed. Angle would have been the perfect guy to break Rusev's streak and win the US title. I am a huge Angle mark. SO many smarks hate him. Fuck it he is great. It's true.

I miss Punk. He made this shit cool again.
