Post-screwjob, Vince McMahon made his "Bret Screwed Bret" promo/interview, in which he criticizes Bret Hart for violating "time-honored tradition" of dropping the title on his way out of the company. I am aware of the the details of the whole Hart contract, as has been laid out at length. But my question is simple: In 1991, Ric Flair jumped to the WWF with the NWA championship, and the WWF did a lot to degrade the legacy of the belt, by using it on TV. Is Vince not a hypocrite here?
I think what Vince is being is selective in how he processes things and is using whatever is available to him as a way of trying to make his case. And to be fair, Flair left with the title because he was owed money. It was a different situation.
I have a few Rock related questions for the Q&A section if possible. 1. What if he failed a wellness test just before WrestleMania (or anytime during this run) or is he immune to being tested? 2. Were any of the things Rock said on the 11-14-2011 raw show ever really trending?
It depends on what kind of contract he has. If it is a personal service deal, as opposed to a standard talent contract, he wouldn't be subjected to tests. If he has a talent deal, well my guess is that somehow his name would not come up. As for the second question you have confused me with someone who gives a rat's ass about trending and hashtags.
Assuming that The Undertaker is ready to go by the time Wrestlemania rolls around, who do you see him facing? Cena's wrestling The Rock and I personally hate the idea of him facing Triple H two years in a row (although their match last year was awesome). The only two possibilities I see are Alberto Del Rio or Mick Foley in like a nostalgic hardcore match or something.
It really depends on what kind of shape he's in. If he can't really go, they should put him in there with an easier opponent that he can beat fairly easily and be protected. If he is ready to go, I could see them pushing someone like Brodus Clay as a monster and Taker then beating him at Mania.
Who started the "kliq" hand gesture? Watching the Bret vs. Shawn DVD, I see him, HHH, Nash & Hall doing it. Yet I remember that being an NWO thing as well.
Those guys were doing that back in the WWF before they went to WCW. They took it to WCW with them when they went.
Last Monday, as usual, I tried to watch Raw on the internet (JustinTV) since I don't have a TV. There is usually many links to watch Raw but last Monday they were all gone. Do you know if it is the WWE that has reinforced their copyright to make sure that everyone would turn their TV on to watch the Rock and therefore boost their TV ratings, or was it just a coincidence?
I can't say for sure but I do know that WWE monitors JustinTV because people have posted PPVs there in the past. I would not be shocked to hear that they are trying to protect their corporate partner, NBC Universal, by blocking feeds of Raw there as well. I would if I were them.
