Because Vince McMahon likes to ignore that they have brands

What was the kayfabe/general reason for unifying the European & Intercontinental title?

 

[klunderbunker]

I don't think there was a kayfabe one.

General, someone thought the one brand one champion was actually a good idea.

Last night, JR mentioned that he had never seen the Undertaker lose by tapping out. Later, King referenced this comment when HBK locked in another submission. Does anyone know if (and if yes, when of course) the Undertaker has lost by tapping out?

I think the one time I heard he has, might be the same match as Angle that KB said, I'm not sure. But it's a few weeks before Vengeance 2002, because in the Triple Threat match between Rock, Angle & Taker, JR says that Angle made Taker tap out.

According to wwe.com 2. RAW General Manager Eric Bischoff ordered a title unification match between Hardy and Intercontinental Champion Rob Van Dam. Van Dam won and it was last anybody saw of the European Championship.

I was under the impression that Bischoff said on screen that there were too many champions and there should only be one, hence the orgy of unification throughout the period.

Hardcore Title - Would that ever make a return?

 

[Harthan]

Was there a WHC on ONS 06?

If so why was it not used 4 the ECW title?

If you mean was it defended, yes. Rey Mysterio defended against Sabu in an Extreme Rules Match that went to a no contest. A doctor said that they couldn't continue after a table spot. It was all kayfabe.

I assume that WWE creative simply didn't want RVD on SmackDown or to end Mysterio's reign at that time.

Does someone know (or can someone check) to see if Superstars is showing the encore 2 or 3 hours after on Thursday. Showing all these replays is so convenient for me so I can acutally have a life and not plan around when wrestlings on, haha. I wish of the shows were like that. So I'm guessing this encore thing Thursdays nights is sticking? Thanks.

What's the deal with the tag titles? The champions, only on RAW orr?

What's the deal with the tag titles? The champions, only on RAW orr?

I assume that over the next year, the belts will float around on all three brands. I guess it's easier for the writers to focus on one set of tag champions at once.

When the old WWF finally beat WCW in the ratings after getting beat for 84 straight weeks, what date was the episode of RAW and what were the two main events on that night?

 

[klunderbunker]

It was sometime in April of 98 and I believe the main event was Austin vs. McMahon.

Not sure if you meant it to be but this isn't for trivia.

 

[Fuzznutzzz]

actually i believe it was the night foley/mankind won his first world title and tony schivone shot his mouth off with comment "that'll put some butts in the seats" but i could be wrong

 

[Sharmania]

Hello. There was an advert a few years ago featuring Batista in a suit stood at the docks next to a sports car... does anyone remember what it was for? Mysterio was in it too. Cheers.

What's the hightest rated Raw ever? What was the date and what were the matches? Thanks.

The highest rating of Raw was on September 27, 1999, in an episode that featured a 25min.long "This Is Your Life" segment with Mankind and The Rock. It was an 8.4

No the first guy was right it was when Steve Austin had and Vince Mcmhaon had their first match that Raw beat Nitro in the ratings for the first time in 84 weeks

This is not a trivia thread, it's if you genuinely need to know an answer. Please stay on topic.
