The_Rev Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 From 10 minutes onwards, how many more matches have there been where the crowd have been as mental as that? I'll bet they loved this backstage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 17, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted April 17, 2014 We talked about that a few pages back. Absolute peak of wrestling, that. I've never heard anything like that pop when the glass breaks for Austin. "That's gonna put some butts in the seats" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 17, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted April 17, 2014 One thing that struck me about wrestlemania was the shit commentators. I'm sure Cole and Lawler used to be good together, even though neither of them could touch JR. But at mania they didn't really seem bothered. No emotion. They sounded at times like buddies chatting about the match in front of their TVs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 The pop for Ziggler cashing in last year was awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sounded at times like buddies chatting about the match in front of their TVs Yeah, I agree, when I take a nostalgic look back through old shows, great commentary goes all the way through and I do think it was an integral part and added to the atmosphere and experience. When Vince used to do it, Bobby Heenan and JR gets a lot of stick in the 'All he does is repeat the same thing over and over with feeling' but 'Ma Gawd!' he was good at it! Used to make my hairs stand up on my arms. Not an intentional hair pun. A good example, was the No Way Out 2003 Bishoff vs Austin Match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 One of the biggest pops of all time. Thanks Schiavone, some people might have missed it if you hadn't warned everybody. King has been lame for years. Heel King was superb, a fantastic example of which is on that very video above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

regular_john Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 One of the best pops ever was Bret 'returning' to Montreal when Shawn Michaels was doing his heel run against Hogan. The crowd go absolutely mental only to be completely let down...twice! Heel Shawn was awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Just rewatched the Punk v Cena MITB 2011 match from Chicago. White hot crowd, up there with any prolonged crowd noise I've heard. Chicago always delivers though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 18, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted April 18, 2014 Jericho's was the best debut I've ever seen. That Millenium Clock business was genius. The Rock destroying him on the mic afterwards was also a bonus (I didn't really know who Jericho was back then though. But still loved it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Cesaro's new music is horrible. Good to see Barrett get the win over Sheamus though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heffoman Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I see Daniel Bryan's father died suddenly. Daniel got a bad beat down by Kane so I presume that was a storyline cover to keep him off air for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 They didn't even want him to show up to Raw but he insisted so they could get the Kane/Bryan Extreme Rules match set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
