Imagine if Sammartino, Backlund, Hogan, Savage and Warrior showed up to dominate WM17

Just stop it already, these wrestlers have the place all to themselves 364 days a year and can't draw this much attention. Having legends there one night hurts no one, and before y'all try to bring up Bray just remember they buried him long before tonight. They didn't need to bring legends to the past Manias because they had a loaded roster of superstars, legit stars who were appearing in tv shows, movies, & late night talk shows.

Having the legends come out and bury 364 days worth of work hurts the whole company. Del Rio is a 4 time champ still in his prime and still active getting bodied by old people. Sheamus was just champ a few months ago. Mick Foley could barely walk still getting "moments". At some point you have to move on. This could have been the one. But nope, gotta please attitude era idiot fans.

No Savio Vega though

I don't get it. This the same board that was DYING for Austin to face someone at WM.

But you're mad when he comes out and stuns a few LON members? Hell, Austin was the ONLY one who let someone get offense in. He let Russev get some good shots in before he took over.


I liked the segment.


The Rock's....ehhh. I thought it was cool but I just hate how the Wyatt Family is not a serious threat.

Where did Vince say this? Site your sources.

You need actual quotes as opposed to the last 15 years of booking?

I'm sorry but what work have they been doing for the Wyatts? Last time i check Harper went down with an ACL and they've given up on Strowman, so let's not act like they were buried by Rock & Cena when the Wyatts weren't even on the card to wrestle.

The most bizarre part of the segment was Rock putting over Bray in his promo. It's like he knew it was the wrong thing to do, but he had to do it anyway since Cokeboy signed the check

This is why WWE gets away with putting out so much garbage.

at one hand there were injuries and the main roster is pretty shytty as it is so legends were necessary

on the other hand was AJ losing to Y2J and the New Day jobbing and then getting beaten up by the flabby and sick crew necessary?

How can the Wyatts get momentum when they get beat by Brock (part timer), Taker (part timer), Rock (part timer), returning Cena? Bray has 3 "monsters" with him and somehow he doesn't win any titles or feuds. Even with alot of active top guys injured, they still found time to make these nikkas job part timer Rocky. Bray could have used that battle royal win. Or have him at least win the IC title in the ladder match or win the US title. Like the thread title said, imagine if all them legends came back during the attitude era beating up DX, Rock, and Austin.

Do some of yall understand? In kayfabe, how does it look when these prime athletes and champions are getting beat up retired folk. These are supposed to be the best in the world but some dudes can come in off the street and destroy them? Why am i explaining basic shyt?

The majority of their stars are injured and Stone Cold, HBK, Foley, and Rock took up like a total of 20 mins screen time, equivalent to what these legends get every year. There was a lot to complain about regarding Mania but the legends were among the highlights of the show This forum's getting annoyingly bytchy

See, I don't really buy the injuries excuse. If they don't have trust in their current roster to fill out a 5 hour show, then they could let the upper-card of NXT have 1 or 2 matches on the WM card. They could've elevated new stars that way rather than hurting their current ones.
