And it was a QUALIFYING match for KING OF THE RING.

So much :wtf: :dwillhuh::mindblown: here.

supposedly Vince got hot at Austin for comments he made on byte this about the creative of the show over the past few weeks and how it sucked. I vaguely remember listening to that episode and I think he actually used the words "it sucks" then next thing you know Austin is scheduled to job to Brock on Raw

Hogan has never been ethered as badly as he was here. And it did make sense in that it built up Brock, who was still very new, as a huge threat against Rock for a big Summerslam main event against Rock, who was leaving.

Blowing this match for free on Smackdown was incredibly stupid


It was to make up for Austin not losing Lesnar to help build Rock/Brock. Since Austin wouldn't do it, Hogan was forced to do it. Haven't watched it since like 2008 and I remember the finish like yesterday. Bear hug. Lol.

Brock lesnar is such a beast.

Dude came straight out the gate with undeniably clean wins over the rock, undertaker, and hulk hogan all in the same year.:wow:
He's not a beast...Rock wasn't political and was gonna run either show upon all returns..as he kept doing. Taker did the Bullshyt finish at Unforgiven first and Hogan had no choice.

Of course that's why the heat was through the roof for Lesnar when he quit at WM XX because the smarks knew how many real stars really put him over.

Austin was on Byte This bashing creative because he had just done the May PPV stuff and it was him losing to Taker and him doing a Flair/Big Show handicap match angle. Lol.

He had the GOAT rookie year.

He beat taker at no mercy hell in a cell and he beat the rock at summerslam.

Matter of fact the wins that I mentioned with taker, hogan, and the rock all happened in the span of 2-3 months.:ohlawd:

Like I said dude is a Beast.:yeshrug:

Id be pissed too...he ran the show for basically the whole year prior...all of a sudden he's got a match at mania midcard no one cares about and other midcard feuds. Then he gets told to lose to someone who just walked In the door :damn:
