Things that WWE Network Vault reminded you of / that you learned

[Ben Ovabich]

- I hated the Piper/Hogan feud because it felt like it was forced and random...
- 2 Cold Scorpio's ECW run was so underrated..
- I didnt know Rick Rude was in ECW.
- I feel uncomfortable watching Chris Benoit/ Woman feud with Kevin Suvillan..

They chanted faggit at Billy Gunn at one episode of raw

Heres another


Bobby heenan WAS COMPLETELY mailing it in from 96 on. He always looked uninterested and was uninspired on the mic.

He was so clearly drunk on air particularly in 1999, but also at every outdoor event he called. Brain even half assing it was still one of the best color guys around. Compare half in the bag Brain to squealing Jerry Lawler talking about t*ts non-stop, or Mike Tenay's neckbeard acting up as he threw out insider references to pop Observer readers.

I'll say that Bret's WCW run is actually underrated at this point, not from a match stand point, because he only had a handful of matches worth watching there, but his promos were fukking hilarious. It's crazy he spent most of the 90s as a beloved, straight laced hero, because he was such a smarmy a$$hole in WCW. And he did it SO WELL. Dude made the funniest faces.

His weekly shyt on whatever for no reason promos were always a highlight of Nitro in 1998. His cadence was also hilarious. He had a groin pull the likes of which you've never seen.

It pisses me off how terribly the WWE used Vader. He should've been booked like current Lesnar and held the WWF title for at least a year.

You know Vader was fukked when his first PPV match with Yoko had him as a chicken shyt heel who kept stalling and running out of the ring. His only offense would come from Corny running interference. Against 700 pound Yoko who he kept beating the shyt out of and was going to be taken off TV the next night or a week later anyway.

I've been re watching the old ECW on TNN episodes, just takes me back to when they were on on Friday nights. Used to watch them on TV with my homie every damn week when we were kids. ECW came along at the PERFECT time for people my age.

Larry Zbysko brought NOTHING to Nitro commentary table. Dude would either attempt to get himself over or drone on about the nWo and fukk whatever match was on.

I know we saying Heenan wasn't anything to write home about in 96 and beyond but after dealing with Zbysko for the first hour of Nitro Heenan was a GODSEND

Why they took till late 99/2000 to move him to Thunder I'll never know

I used to be when Hall would come out and son Zbysko

The 97 hogan piper fued was fukkin awful. The onlygood part was the BEATDOWNS flair and piper got from the wolfpac

Lillian Garcia has always been meh but she was truly AWFUL when she first started in '99.

Cosign 3 hour Nitros being a chore to get through

Listening to King and JR in their prime really drives home how important the commentators are to pushing storylines and characters. Something the product is in desperate need of

why you gotta be so selfish, Bret?

Bragging rights at the Hart family dinner table is real:notimpressedbret:

I said it in the main WWE Network thread , but Rob Bartlett was so TRASH as a commentator on Raw. Even his impersonations were garbage.

 

[DaylitoJames]

WCW's The Giant >>> WWF/E's The Big Show by a wide mile

 

[Berniewood Hogan]

Saturn was fukkin awesome.

THIS POINT IN PARTICULAR ILLUSTRATES HOW BADLY THE DEATH OF THE OLD TERRITORY SYSTEM HAS fukkED UP THE BUSINESS, BROTHER! EVEN PERMANENT MIDCARD HAM AND EGGERS LIKE SATURN WERE GODLY HANDS IN THE RING COMPARED TO THESE PERFORMANCE CENTER JABRONES, DUDE!

WCW's The Giant >>> WWF/E's The Big Show by a wide mile

I disgaree...he was corny and always looked uncomfortable asf. And he didnt even have entrance music which just made no sense. MARTY JANETTY and RICK MARTEL had stock music even

He didn't need music. He was a giant and had a custom name plate.
