I feel like this year's Wrestlemania could have comftorably been made a two-day event. Thoughts?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not a fan of the idea at all.

 

[DarksideEric]

Who was the first to wear something other than the normal tights on the ring?

 

[klunderbunker]

Probably a cowboy character back in the day.

 

[DarksideEric]

Was Macho Man the first one to wear the super flashy stuff? Like tassels, multi-colored, etc.

 

[klunderbunker]

Look up Gorgeous George.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

Did you ever think Daniel Bryan would main event any WrestleMania ever, let alone the one you'll be attending?

 

[klunderbunker]

No I didn't. The guy surprised me.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

No I didn't. The guy surprised me.

Was that because of the perception that he was a good wrestler, but a bland personality?

 

[klunderbunker]

Mostly. That and him getting fired his first night on Raw (as stupid as that was).

 

[Spidey Revivey]

What're your thoughts on Sean O'haire? Care for his vignettes any?

 

[DarksideEric]

Look up Gorgeous George.

I thought George just wore regular gear in the ring. I know about his outfits that he wears to the ring, I was meaning actual ring gear.

What's your favorite PPV theme song and favorite "tribute song" that WWE used to do. Like Bret got the "You Start the Fire," they did a bunch of videos to "My Sacrifice," etc.

Surely Superstar Billy Graham would be one too.

I'm the first to admit that I'm not very knowledgeable or much of a fan of wrestling pre-90s. I've gone back and watched some stuff around then 83-89 era (when I was still super young) and some 70s stuff, but it didn't hold me all that much, hence why I don't know a lot about it.

KB, were you a fan of Angle and Lesnar's short-lived friendship and their silly segments together on Smackdown?

Loved it. So much potential there that they just wasted.

My Sacrifice. I was a big Creed fan and I have no shame in saying that.

That's what I came in here to say.

KB, were you a fan of Angle and Lesnar's short-lived friendship and their silly segments together on Smackdown?

Yep.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

Yep.

Any particular favourite moments? I just watched their push-up challenge for the first time since watching that episode when it originally aired and forgot how good it was.

I don't think I would put their material over Angle and Austin's in the Invasion days though.

 

[klunderbunker]

Them drinking milk.

Yeah Angle singing with the cowboy hat is priceless.

 

[alfonzo13]

What is the percent chance that Orton leaves 'Mania with the title? (Ala WM 24)

Does this Wrestlemania even have an 'official' theme song? I've heard like 3.

Were you a fan of the 40-man Royal Rumble concept?

 

[klunderbunker]

Less than 10.

They're all official.

Not really.

 

[The Fabulous Rougeau's]

While no single event lead to the ultimate failure of WCW, which one had a larger impact in it:

Nash beating Goldberg and ending his streak at Starrcade
or
Hogan winning the title 8 days later with the finger poke of doom
or
is the fact that they happened within 8 days of one another make it tough to seperate the two

 

[Alex]

Thoughts on Xavier Woods??

 

[Randy Orton's Head Blood]

Your top WWE Superstar is forced to retire due to injury, say John Cena.

Who do you bring up as Number 1?

Who do you bring up (From the lowercard or NXT) to replace the other guy you made number 1?

 

[JohnJohnson]

What is the song that was used in the second half of the Triple H years of dominance promo on this week's Raw?

It wasn't GOldberg losing. It had to happen eventually and Nash was a fine choice as champion. That was stupid but not crippling. The Fingerpoke was worse but more for what came with it.

Not a fan.

Reigns for lack of anyone better.

Zayn. The guy just has it.

I wasn't paying attention.
