bob holly to me never had that IT factor..he is like jeff jarrett to me...hardcore holly (as well as upping the roid intake) extended his career longer than it should have..he was a good hand in the ring but really thats it

I think he was kept around to keep young guys in check

:dwillhuh:2 miscarriage storylines in 5 years:heh:

I forgot this shyt happened this way. It lowkey wasn't Gene's fault Kane was trying to crush his throat with a chair and Lita shouldn't have been in the ring. Great acting from Lita, it's a shame her best work was in her worst angle.

Out of all the wrestlers trained OVW Vince was so pleased with Gene Snitsky he called and thank Jim Cornette, the only time he ever did so. They even flew Gene in the company jet, this done for a wrestler who was supposed to be a one and done plot device in a tasteless angle.


He briefly talks about Trish taunting Lita during this angle. It's crazy that while WWE has crowned her the kayfabe GOAT babyface diva damn near all her best work was as a heel.

The Ahmed Johnson bio one could’ve been better. He kinda glossed over how over he was from 95-97, but especially 95-96. Crowds loved him as did management, he was just too reckless in the ring and became injury prone. He was basically Ryback, except once the bell rang, people cheered for more than just his finisher.
