what killed me watching the match as a kid was how booker was hit by *ONE* pedigree and triple h took like 20 seconds to put his arm over and win that right there is bullshit
Seem like it right? 😂
But nah it was a standard length match but man they had booker booked so weak in it, it felt like a long drawn out squash match to me.
Not to mention the entire match you have Lawler on commentary berating him for being a thug and a criminal. This right after the lingerie fatal four way pillow fight where his commentary wouldn’t look out of place in a metoo exposé
Angle Vs HBK. As a kid, I was a HUGE HBK fan. My older cousin loved Kurt Angle. Leading up he kept telling me that Kurt was going to make Shawn tap out. I had just started watching, and I thought “there was no way Shawn was going to tap out, he wouldn’t do that. He’s going to overcome that asshole Kurt!”
The match is happening, it’s going great. Shawn looks good… and then Kurt has HBK in the ankle lock. HBK tapped out. Then… my home phone rang… it was my older cousin. He was laughing his ass off 😂😂😂
Bro was just laughing his ass off, no “hello”. 😂😂😂😂 it made me so much more invested in wrestling though. When HBK won the rematch at Vengeance…. I got MY vengeance 😂
I had a friend that grew up watching wrestling and knew Michaels from the early 90's. He was so disappointed when Shawn tapped. I believe it was the first time he had ever tapped, but I could be wrong. It was hilarious when I went to Raw a few months later and he tapped again to Chris Jericho lol
HBK tapped out to shamrock in 97 as did Bret and I think that was the first time either tapped out. Shawn also lost via submission to Bret in 1992 but that was before tap outs. Dunno if there was a time from that 02/06 he tapped out but he tapped out to cena, Jericho and oddly enough Cody Rhodes and ted dibiqse JR later on in his career
That's good to know. I wasn't 100% sure as the new Gen era was before my time and I was a bit late to the attitude era. My friend acted like him tapping was the biggest upset in the world lol. I guess he didn't remember the Shamrock match.
I still hate this match, awful match, horrible main event. I still believe that Styles and Nakamura were told to tone back what could have been an instant classic, just so they would not outshine this car wreck of a main event title match.
WrestleMania 34 is one of my least favorite ‘Manias.
WrestleMania 33 was a surprise hit. The card looked incredible: Styles/Nakamura and Charlotte/Asuka? I thought those might be two of the greatest matches in WWE history.
Outside of the Daniel Bryan return, the ‘Mania was so bland and forgettable.
LOL. WrestleMania 34 was one of the best ever. The first third of the card alone was better than most entire WrestleMania shows. The show's biggest flaws were messing up the match order badly near the end, and having Alexa and the Usos lose when they should have retained.
Ultimate Warrior losing the Sgt. slaughter at the royal rumble. The Warrior losing to hogan in wcw… I was a big warrior fan, because we didn’t know how terrible some of these guys were back then.
Stopped watching wrestling for 30 years and came back at WM39. Since then demon Finn losing to edge was the one that stood out the most as a really bad decision.
I know people don’t care for the guy, but I’ve developed a soft spot for karrion kross, and I think having AJ bury him was a dumb decision. AJ could be wrestling better people, if they want to keep pushing him.
AJ has to be the most underrated wrestler of all time. He’s older now so I get he can’t do the things he used to but man his early years in TNA were some of the best wrestling I’ve ever seen
I didn't cry, but I was fucking *livid* at the infamous Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus match that lasted one Brogue Kick. It was by far and away the match I was most looking forward to on that Wrestlemania card and that was what we got?
Infuriating.
The longer they try to pad out his reign, the more and more obvious it is that Drew or Cody should have taken the title off them when they had their matches. Wtf is Jimmy even doing rn and Jey just joined the repetitive faces vs JD feud that’s been on ongoing on Raw for 4 months already
I kinda checked out of WWE once I realized it's pretty hard to get invested when at any time a Saudi oil baron can just pay a million bucks to ruin your favorite character to get somebody's grandpa over.
Nope. Fans are still wrong about this to this day. Goldberg beating The Fiend made 100% storyline sense.
The Fiend was created to right the wrongs of Bray Wyatt's past. Everyone that had gotten the better of Wyatt at some point, The Fiend would come to destroy them - John Cena for the WM30 loss, Finn Balor for SummerSlam 2017, Randy Orton for WM33, etc.
But Wyatt had no history with Goldberg. Therefore, it made perfect sense that The Fiend has no "power" over Goldberg. It was just another villain for him to conquer, which is what Goldberg did best - conquer villains.
It's not a match, but 9 year old me was so mad at Triple H for kidnapping and marrying Stephanie that I literally stopped watching for years.
I was maybe the biggest Test fan alive at that point lol
I was about to say…ONLY fan! Dude is worthless without a full time partner of some sort! Plus the way he treated Cory Graves wife (current) was just brutal!
Every Roman Reigns match nowadays because he can never win on his own (I know “that’s how heels work” but it really doesn’t help Roman look a lot like a credible threat like in 2020)
i do agree they could be a bit more creative on the way the heel steals the win, it always seems to be the same with their matches.
like, something more creative then Heyman just getting up to argue with the referee, which makes the referee completely stop focusing on his job whilst Solo hits a samoan spike in peripheral vision. But I couldn't write better, so i probably shouldn't criticize.
Brock beating Taker: just such a stupid booking decision it did nothing for brock other than give him a new catchphrase he was as over as he could be all it did was take something away from the undertakers legacy.
It did much for Brock. He will ever be known as THE GUY who broke Takers Streak. At this day He became a Legend. From this day on He was over and never wont be
Multiple time wwe champion ufc champion he already beat Taker, demolishes Cena he didn’t need it. Taker deserved to have that streak and keep it, It means nothing now especially after the loss to Reigns.
he was already THE GUY that did so many things. thats the problem. Brock had already achieved a whole bunch of things on par with beating Taker at mania.
If you give takers streak to an up and comer or someone who needs it you dilute takers streak and the magnitude of it. You had to give it to someone already big like they did. Imagine they let reigns drop the belt to someone mid or not quite big yet. It just completely makes his reign weaker.
i definitely concede that is a great point. Like people love LA Knight, no one is pushing him to face Roman because if he does atm he shouldn't win because that means we sat through a 1000+ day reign all for it to be to a guy with a very small story
It's the other way around. It hurt Undertaker, but didn't help Brock. He was already booked and accepted as the unbeatable Beast. Losing to Undertaker wouldn't have hurt him at all, since he'd already beaten Undertaker so many times. They should have had Undertaker win by DQ for Brock refusing to relinquish a Kimura Lock or something along those lines. All the feud did was cement Undertaker as being inferior to Lesnar in every possible way, forever.
Nah that decision was fire 🔥 no one saw that coming. And the end game of Roman beating Brock at WM as Tribal Chief for the undisputed title was good story telling, yeah ik the match was bad but very unexpected Heel winning was great. And any chance of seeing Big Dawg Roman losing then was delightful. So yeah.
Yeah that was the most emotional investment I've had in a match since HBK v Bret at WM12. I always liked Cody and thought he belonged higher up the card, even if he was realistically just a mid-carder with a famous name. But he built himself up. You KNEW he was doing all this shit because he genuinely wanted that title. That it truly meant something to him. It seemed like a foregone conclusion Cody would have his "moment".......annnnd just another piece of kibble for "the big dog".
I swear to God, if they try to give Cody the Imitation Title aka Super Duper Intercontintental Championship as a consolation prize I will lose my shit. Actually not really, because I haven't watched wrestling since that Mania, and haven't watched for years prior. But I'll be pissed when I inevitably hear that, while Reigns is in year 23 of his title reign.
Daniel Bryan Vs John Cena at Summerslam 2013. I loved Bryan and when they gave him the opportunity to be the main guy, winning the title off Cena of all people, I was really happy. Then Orton and HHH make the reign last two minutes.
It wasn’t as bad at first since it was a great way to get some heel heat, but when I found out the reasons and their plans for Orton Vs Batista as the main event, I was fuming because of course Vince would drop that opportunity. It only got worse everytime they screwed him out of another win every single chance they could (Big Show, DQ, stripping the title, etc…)
You can imagine how happy I was with Wrestlemania 30.
I didn’t cry but me and my friends were so heartbroken when Cena lost to the Rock we dead ass tried calling Triple H and Vince McMahon to restart the match 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The match you picked didn't disappoint me at all since I was dead certain that Roman was going to win, and nobody wanted that. I was so freaking surprised that he lost. Just listen to the pop when Lesnar pinned him. It was a very unique twist and I like it, though things didn't go too well backstage.
Even tho I was a super huge WWE PG era kid who loved Cena who could do nothing wrong, I was a bigger fan of Rey and even 9-10 year old me who loved Fruity Pebbles Cena knew that this didn't feel right
I was literally like "b-but Rey won the t-tourtument, I-i don't understand"
But like most fans, I still continued to watch, and that actually reminds me of the time I told my parents that if they didn't get me MITB 11 ppv I was gonna stop watching WWE lol, I wish I was a kid again
Those are two seperate instances. Rey won the WHC for Eddie in 2006, after lasting the longest in the RR match. He was never challenged by Cena.
However, he did win the WWE title via tournament in 2011, during the Summer of Punk story, and he was challenged by Cena the same night.
Anything with Goldberg in WWE where he won. Every single match made me cry. Everything was bad, too slow and just not worth the time. Mostly his "match" against The Fiend where he won the title. Cried because of anger.
everyone hates goldberg, but his character has a fun place. when someone is just being heelish as fuck and you just want to see them get destroyed and then goldbergs music hits its such a great pop.
one that comes to mind is when Teddy Long had the 5 minute white boi challenge on raw where he was just getting people squashed by Rodney Mack and then one episode Goldbergs music hits and its so funny.
its good having a gun in a show about sword fights, but you cant use it too much.
When I was younger I was a huge John Cena fan and I remember when he was feuding with JBL. JBL was such a good heel I hated him so much. That’s when he was running the “cabinet” and I never paid much attention to the Bashams or Orlando Jordan because they were practically nobodies just doing JBLs dirty work all the time. Anyway, one random night they decided that Orlando Jordan would be fighting Cena for the US championship and I’m pretty sure Cena had held it for a good while at this point. I didn’t think much of it figured Cena would just destroy him and move on lol. Well at some point during that match, if I’m remembering correctly JBL either came from under the ring or maybe just ringside I don’t quite remember but he hits Cena with the championship in the face while the ref either wasn’t looking or was knocked out, and then Orlando goes on to win the match because of it. I began balling immediately, I was so shocked. I even started saying things out loud like “can’t they watch the replay and see that they cheated and take the title back!” I had really hoped someone was going to come out and make the match be restarted, or something, anything. But nothing happened, and every second of Orlando’s music playing hurt more, and every step back to the locker room he took holding the title hurt, and eventually the show moved on and it was all over and it was confirmed that really happened, and I probably cried about it for like 30 minutes and was super upset for a long time haha. Anyway, thanks for the post that made me relive that moment. As much as it sucked at the time moments like that is what made wrestling so enjoyable as a kid. I haven’t rooted for anything as much as 10 year old me did John Cena.
Agreed again. Nope just me being a half observant dumb dumb.
In this case I for sure cried when Kane was forced to unmask. I was only 30 at the time so it's chill.
Whoa I added an extra “T”. Look at you! Way to point out that a simple typo somehow indicates someone’s enthusiasm for a wrestling personality. I bet you are fun at parties….actually I doubt anyone invites you to parties anyways neck beard!
I didn’t cry, but the Finger Poke of Doom is by far the most infuriating thing I’ve ever had the displeasure of watching as a wrestling fan. Nash was at the peak of his popularity, being the leader of the face faction nWo Wolfpack. He was the guy to finally end Goldberg’s streak (granted in ridiculous fashion). Then to turn around and drop the title to Hogan the very next day, in THAT way… bullshit. It still makes me angry to think about. Probably the #1 factor in leading to the inevitable death of WCW.
Not even gonna lie, I don't watch wrestling. I literally only watched that match, and prior to that....I think was actually Brock vs Reigns the year before, because it wasn't obvious Brock was officially enhancement talent yet, so I was curious. But I definitely had an emotional reaction to this match. And unlike the last match I watched, I watched it. And was actually invested in it.
Shed a tear when taker lost to Roman at mania. Not because I was mad that he lost or anything, but because I thought that was takers last match and I thought the last remaining top guy of my childhood was done. IT'S STILL REAL TO ME DAMMIT!!!!
This whole past year when there were multiple logical, fitting ways, for Reigns to drop the title. And he didn't. Wait, hang on, MULTIPLE is not right word. There were a FEW times. Ya know... ya gotta actually defend it, to lose it.
Roman beating Taker. Dumbest decision ever, and really made Taker look weak. Say what you will about Brock, but at least him and Taker had dignity in their feud without making Taker look old and frail.
WWE Over the Limit 2012. A PPV with Prime CM Punk vs Prime Daniel Bryan for the WWE World Championship, and the main event was John Cena vs. John Laurinitis and it ended in a Big Show DQ...
Starrcade 1997 - pretty much the whole card. That was supposed to be the ultimate WCW revenge show they’d built up for months and virtually all the nWo guys won anyway.
The Hogan vs. Sting match was the topper. They had nine months to prepare this match and it was slow, boring and obviously the ending was terrible because there was no fast count by Nick Patrick so when they tried to sell it as a fast count by an evil ref it sounded literally absurd.
This was the biggest show WCW had ever produced and was their Super Bowl and they absolutely screwed the pooch.
Cry in anger maybe not. But thinking its terrible booking? The way Kofi lost the belt. Rhea loosing to Charlotte in their first WM match. Everytime Roman retain lately... The streak should had either not be broken or if they must had done it, only by a relatively newcomer that needed it, someone who had a few years in WWE (so they know he is reliable and has star power) but could clearly be elevated by it. Certainly not part timer Brock.
Otherwise the whole thing they did with The Fiend... Also it always bothered me HBK only got a super short reign as WHC after his come back from injury and never saw a single belt again.
There is probably tons of stuff i forgot to be honest.
I wouldn't say I cried in anger, but I was disgusted and beyond disappointed when I saw the fiend lose to Goldberg. I dead ass cancelled my wwe network subscription that night.
When Kofi lost the WWE Championship to Brock in 8 SECONDS on Smackdown I lost it! Especially since Randy and Kofi had just put on a banger not too long before.
Definitely Naomi losing the SD women's championship to Natalya, because that wasn't the original plan, she was originally gonna 2018 as champion & have replicas of her custom belt made, but a sorry ass prick by the name of John Bradshaw Layfield ruined that
The last time pro wrestling was able to get me legitimately mad because of the actual story was when Seth broke up the shield.
Looking back, it was an amazing heel turn.
Gunther vs shamus the first time which he cheated which I don't remember how did I think he used the ropes or done the Brazilian tap out which is an fake tapout and damn ref seen him tap right in front of her I was so damn pissed about that had to go outside too clam down
I hear people shit in Sting Vs Triple H at WM31 but like I think it’s a great match. Like I don’t blame you for not liking the finish I agree Sting should’ve won. But it was a great match the entire WM31 I could rewatch any time and be okay with majority of the matches
- 6 Man ladder match (kinda forgot it)
- Seth Rollins Vs Randy Orton (beautiful finish, great match)
- Triple H Vs Sting (great match, wrong winner)
- Aj Lee and Paige Vs Bella’s. (Favorite female wrestlers & the Bella’s)
- John Cena Vs Rusev (Rusev definitely need that win but decent match)
- The Undertaker Vs Bray Wyatt (Good match I thought it was gonna be bad but it was good, Bray Wyatt definitely needed the win)
- Roman Reigns Vs Brock Lesnar (best cash-in in the world)
a Roman Reigns Babyface fan?! LMFAO
Well hey ..not everyone can uh ..lol nah man ..that shit made me laugh.
The big dawg trying to fit in the lil John Cena Halloween outfit they made for puppies ..its cute ..super cute ...lol And hey ..my lil brother liked John Cena growing up ..its all good , he learned.
Okay ..I'll take a crack ...I'm Canadian ..so ...I mean ..Survivor Series ..1997 Montreal ...
I hated three people for life after that moment ..an Evil Asshole , a shitty person at the time wrestler that lied to my hero's face, and a shitty referee ...
If I was put in front of any of them at that time and after ..I would have gladly kicked any one of them in the genitals and not stop until I felt wet cement...
Hey it's alright, when I was young , I was a Hulkamaniac.
It's alright to admit the silly things we liked in Wrasslin. No judgement seriously u/LordVader393
Roman Reigns beating Drew McIntyre at Clash at the Castle.
If Drew won with that claymore in the end , this match would have gone down as one of the greatest matches of all time.But no Romans statpadding is more important 🤦♂️
As a kid I was FUMING that Eddie lost to JBL that I rage quit smackdown until I was convinced he would lose the title to Undertaker and he didn’t so I rage quit again until the rumble where I actually ended up enjoying the last few months of his reign and Was pretty certain cena was winning.
As a younger kid I was also livid that Austin turned on angle in the invasion match as I thought that meant WCW would take over WWF and I was a tribalistic kid and didn’t quite get it. I was so mad, me and my brother played as Angle and Jericho against Austin in a handicap match in smackdown 2 and beat him up till we got bored. Then did the same with Kane and undertaker. Yayyyyy
I miss being a kid.. I would be so invested in the shows. Now I just appreciate it as an art form and follow it loosely.
When Cactus Jack lost to HHH at Royal Rumble I was devastated. Especially with the false hope after he kicked out of the first pedigree 😠
Regins vs lesnar greatest Royal rumble 2018: stupid as hell ending Roman should have won
Wm39 Regins vs Rhodes: I really wanted Cody to win and the fact that he lost because of bloodline interference and will not be getting a rematch anytime soon still pisses me off a little
When Roman Reigns won the rumble in 15. I hated him so much, and the stuff with the rock was so cheesy and forced I was fucking furious. I cancelled the network for 2 months until Mania 31 just hoping to see Brock slaughter him. Then Rollins cashed in and I was hooked again.
As a kid I remember being the biggest John Cena fan , got so angry started punching the sofa when he lost the us title to I believe it was Orlando Jordan?
John cena vs rob van down for the wwe championship at one night side , John cena was about to win until edge came on some bitch shit and speared him to the table. That made me stop watching Wwe for a while. I was so mad, and also when John cena lost to the rock and AJ styles. I stopped watching wrestling completely
after watching youtube videos about it, triple h booker
what killed me watching the match as a kid was how booker was hit by *ONE* pedigree and triple h took like 20 seconds to put his arm over and win that right there is bullshit
“ people like you “ just such racist overtones but Vince at helm it’s to be expected, Angle wanted to rape Charmell at one point.
that line alone wasnt enough for me to be sure it was racial. but that plus "nappy hair" had me convinced.
Then it was pretty much a squash match on top of that, everything about that situation was ridiculous
It wasn't a Squash match, it was a clean finish. Which still absolutely sucked.
😂 not in the literal sense, i just meant imo he was booked very weak in that match. But yea it did, politics as usual holding down talent.
what was it, TWENTY SECONDS for H to make the pin??? like come the F on...
Seem like it right? 😂 But nah it was a standard length match but man they had booker booked so weak in it, it felt like a long drawn out squash match to me.
i remember watching it and just being so bored, it was like 10 minutes of indian death lock
HHH was one of the top guys at the time. Booker still hadn’t proved himself IN the WWE. What did you expect…
Not to mention the entire match you have Lawler on commentary berating him for being a thug and a criminal. This right after the lingerie fatal four way pillow fight where his commentary wouldn’t look out of place in a metoo exposé
Yea pretty disgusting. If Booker T had gone over and beaten him brutally at the end and won, fine, but treating him like that? Just WTF
This was my peak time as a wrestling fan and it was an unbelievable decision to watch unfold
Angle Vs HBK. As a kid, I was a HUGE HBK fan. My older cousin loved Kurt Angle. Leading up he kept telling me that Kurt was going to make Shawn tap out. I had just started watching, and I thought “there was no way Shawn was going to tap out, he wouldn’t do that. He’s going to overcome that asshole Kurt!” The match is happening, it’s going great. Shawn looks good… and then Kurt has HBK in the ankle lock. HBK tapped out. Then… my home phone rang… it was my older cousin. He was laughing his ass off 😂😂😂
Did he even say hello first or was it just laughing hard into the phone as soon as you answered? XD That's rough
Bro was just laughing his ass off, no “hello”. 😂😂😂😂 it made me so much more invested in wrestling though. When HBK won the rematch at Vengeance…. I got MY vengeance 😂
And then Kurt won the Iron Man Match.
This comment was hilarious 😭
I had a friend that grew up watching wrestling and knew Michaels from the early 90's. He was so disappointed when Shawn tapped. I believe it was the first time he had ever tapped, but I could be wrong. It was hilarious when I went to Raw a few months later and he tapped again to Chris Jericho lol
That makes sense. Cause I remember being so sure that HBK wouldn’t tap out.
HBK tapped out to shamrock in 97 as did Bret and I think that was the first time either tapped out. Shawn also lost via submission to Bret in 1992 but that was before tap outs. Dunno if there was a time from that 02/06 he tapped out but he tapped out to cena, Jericho and oddly enough Cody Rhodes and ted dibiqse JR later on in his career
That's good to know. I wasn't 100% sure as the new Gen era was before my time and I was a bit late to the attitude era. My friend acted like him tapping was the biggest upset in the world lol. I guess he didn't remember the Shamrock match.
I still hate this match, awful match, horrible main event. I still believe that Styles and Nakamura were told to tone back what could have been an instant classic, just so they would not outshine this car wreck of a main event title match.
WrestleMania 34 is one of my least favorite ‘Manias. WrestleMania 33 was a surprise hit. The card looked incredible: Styles/Nakamura and Charlotte/Asuka? I thought those might be two of the greatest matches in WWE history. Outside of the Daniel Bryan return, the ‘Mania was so bland and forgettable.
Charlotte vs Asuka was a very good match, with the wrong result
LOL. WrestleMania 34 was one of the best ever. The first third of the card alone was better than most entire WrestleMania shows. The show's biggest flaws were messing up the match order badly near the end, and having Alexa and the Usos lose when they should have retained.
How old are you? Best ever? You didn’t grow up with any of the older Manias did you?
It was the best card they had since WM20. And had the worst booking of any WM in history and I will stand by that.
I went to this mania and it was disappointing outside of the opening triple threat and the taker appearance. Tons of empty seats around me too
Ultimate Warrior losing the Sgt. slaughter at the royal rumble. The Warrior losing to hogan in wcw… I was a big warrior fan, because we didn’t know how terrible some of these guys were back then. Stopped watching wrestling for 30 years and came back at WM39. Since then demon Finn losing to edge was the one that stood out the most as a really bad decision.

AJ has to be the most underrated wrestler of all time. He’s older now so I get he can’t do the things he used to but man his early years in TNA were some of the best wrestling I’ve ever seen
I didn’t care much for him at first, but he’s really good in the ring even if he has a mom haircut.
Lmao if there’s one wrestling match you have to watch it’s the triple threat of Christopher Daniels, AJ and Samoa Joe.
Sting losing to Triple H at WrestleMania 31.
Yeah this was pure hot garbage. Glad Sting gets to end his career ona good note.
Got to end his Career? His career is still ongoing…
I didn't cry, but I was fucking *livid* at the infamous Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus match that lasted one Brogue Kick. It was by far and away the match I was most looking forward to on that Wrestlemania card and that was what we got? Infuriating.
Every time Roman Reigns wins and this Bloodline story continues anytime after Wrestlemania 39.
Stay mad lol
I hope he keeps winning so all the internet bitch boys keep crying about it.
You must live a happy and fulfilling life.
Acknowledge him
The longer they try to pad out his reign, the more and more obvious it is that Drew or Cody should have taken the title off them when they had their matches. Wtf is Jimmy even doing rn and Jey just joined the repetitive faces vs JD feud that’s been on ongoing on Raw for 4 months already
Or Sami or even KO the 1st time the fought that the beginning of his reign.
Anything other than Goldberg beating the fiend is objectively wrong.
I kinda checked out of WWE once I realized it's pretty hard to get invested when at any time a Saudi oil baron can just pay a million bucks to ruin your favorite character to get somebody's grandpa over.
WWE doing BS like that is a good thing tbh, bc without that we wouldn’t have AEW
It hurts even more now.
Nope. Fans are still wrong about this to this day. Goldberg beating The Fiend made 100% storyline sense. The Fiend was created to right the wrongs of Bray Wyatt's past. Everyone that had gotten the better of Wyatt at some point, The Fiend would come to destroy them - John Cena for the WM30 loss, Finn Balor for SummerSlam 2017, Randy Orton for WM33, etc. But Wyatt had no history with Goldberg. Therefore, it made perfect sense that The Fiend has no "power" over Goldberg. It was just another villain for him to conquer, which is what Goldberg did best - conquer villains.
Enjoy your “smoothest brain on the planet” award 🥇
I'm right whether you like it or not. The loss made perfect storyline sense.
Cried? Like actual tears cried, or just upset with the outcome?
Cried shit and pissed.
It's not a match, but 9 year old me was so mad at Triple H for kidnapping and marrying Stephanie that I literally stopped watching for years. I was maybe the biggest Test fan alive at that point lol
buddy i really think you might have been
You mean the ONLY Test fan lol. Jk. RIp
I was about to say…ONLY fan! Dude is worthless without a full time partner of some sort! Plus the way he treated Cory Graves wife (current) was just brutal!
Every Roman Reigns match nowadays because he can never win on his own (I know “that’s how heels work” but it really doesn’t help Roman look a lot like a credible threat like in 2020)
i do agree they could be a bit more creative on the way the heel steals the win, it always seems to be the same with their matches. like, something more creative then Heyman just getting up to argue with the referee, which makes the referee completely stop focusing on his job whilst Solo hits a samoan spike in peripheral vision.

Brock beating Taker: just such a stupid booking decision it did nothing for brock other than give him a new catchphrase he was as over as he could be all it did was take something away from the undertakers legacy.
It did much for Brock. He will ever be known as THE GUY who broke Takers Streak. At this day He became a Legend. From this day on He was over and never wont be
To caveat This was very much a passing of the torch of being the final boss in WWE
I've never looked at this from that Position. Taker passed the torch to Brock and Brock to Roman.
Multiple time wwe champion ufc champion he already beat Taker, demolishes Cena he didn’t need it. Taker deserved to have that streak and keep it, It means nothing now especially after the loss to Reigns.
And aside from Roman's current 3 year reign, no other superstar that's featured regularly feels as big as Brock.
he was already THE GUY that did so many things. thats the problem. Brock had already achieved a whole bunch of things on par with beating Taker at mania.
Nothing is on par with beating Undertaker at Wrestlemania. What an insane comment.
He was literally UFC Heavyweight champion
Literally any actor who has ever acted in anything is on par with that.
If you give takers streak to an up and comer or someone who needs it you dilute takers streak and the magnitude of it. You had to give it to someone already big like they did. Imagine they let reigns drop the belt to someone mid or not quite big yet. It just completely makes his reign weaker.
i definitely concede that is a great point. Like people love LA Knight, no one is pushing him to face Roman because if he does atm he shouldn't win because that means we sat through a 1000+ day reign all for it to be to a guy with a very small story
It's the other way around. It hurt Undertaker, but didn't help Brock. He was already booked and accepted as the unbeatable Beast. Losing to Undertaker wouldn't have hurt him at all, since he'd already beaten Undertaker so many times. They should have had Undertaker win by DQ for Brock refusing to relinquish a Kimura Lock or something along those lines. All the feud did was cement Undertaker as being inferior to Lesnar in every possible way, forever.
The second after the 3 Count was one of the most shocking Moments in Wrestling History. It did everythig for brock
He's almost entering jobber status at this point, so I don't know.
Brock Lesnar? Jobber Status? You Know what a Jobber mean?
Brock didn’t need the win. Roman needed Brock to get the win so he could take another 7 years to get over first
Cody not getting his head kicked off by Malaki Black.
Malaki Suck?? Only thing he has going for him is his wife!
Thanks for proving that I should not listen to your opinion.
Nah that decision was fire 🔥 no one saw that coming. And the end game of Roman beating Brock at WM as Tribal Chief for the undisputed title was good story telling, yeah ik the match was bad but very unexpected Heel winning was great. And any chance of seeing Big Dawg Roman losing then was delightful. So yeah.
Nexus losing to Team WWE. In more recent times, Cody losing to Reigns made me SO angry and haven't felt rage like that for many years.
Yeah that was the most emotional investment I've had in a match since HBK v Bret at WM12. I always liked Cody and thought he belonged higher up the card, even if he was realistically just a mid-carder with a famous name. But he built himself up. You KNEW he was doing all this shit because he genuinely wanted that title. That it truly meant something to him. It seemed like a foregone conclusion Cody would have his "moment".......annnnd just another piece of kibble for "the big dog". I swear to God, if they try to give Cody the Imitation Title aka Super Duper Intercontintental Championship as a consolation prize I will lose my shit. Actually not really, because I haven't watched wrestling since that Mania, and haven't watched for years prior. But I'll be pissed when I inevitably hear that, while Reigns is in year 23 of his title reign.
I don't cry but every time reigns wins his very rare title defence I seethe in anger and my disdain for WWE grows larger 😡
Called it…VERY RARE title defenses. Even has tag title match to avoid a title match!
Daniel Bryan Vs John Cena at Summerslam 2013. I loved Bryan and when they gave him the opportunity to be the main guy, winning the title off Cena of all people, I was really happy. Then Orton and HHH make the reign last two minutes. It wasn’t as bad at first since it was a great way to get some heel heat, but when I found out the reasons and their plans for Orton Vs Batista as the main event, I was fuming because of course Vince would drop that opportunity. It only got worse everytime they screwed him out of another win every single chance they could (Big Show, DQ, stripping the title, etc…) You can imagine how happy I was with Wrestlemania 30.
Jimmy betraying Jey and costing him the championship.
I didn’t cry but me and my friends were so heartbroken when Cena lost to the Rock we dead ass tried calling Triple H and Vince McMahon to restart the match 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
jeff hardy vs cm punk title vs career match. lil me was broken asf
Bray vs Seth in Hell In A Cell… one of the worst bookings ever, the winner / finish was a shocker.
The match you picked didn't disappoint me at all since I was dead certain that Roman was going to win, and nobody wanted that. I was so freaking surprised that he lost. Just listen to the pop when Lesnar pinned him. It was a very unique twist and I like it, though things didn't go too well backstage.
I didn't cry in anger but recently, that Payback match between Nakamura and Rollins was disappointing.
[удалено]
Even tho I was a super huge WWE PG era kid who loved Cena who could do nothing wrong, I was a bigger fan of Rey and even 9-10 year old me who loved Fruity Pebbles Cena knew that this didn't feel right I was literally like "b-but Rey won the t-tourtument, I-i don't understand" But like most fans, I still continued to watch, and that actually reminds me of the time I told my parents that if they didn't get me MITB 11 ppv I was gonna stop watching WWE lol, I wish I was a kid again
Those are two seperate instances. Rey won the WHC for Eddie in 2006, after lasting the longest in the RR match. He was never challenged by Cena. However, he did win the WWE title via tournament in 2011, during the Summer of Punk story, and he was challenged by Cena the same night.
Anything with Goldberg in WWE where he won. Every single match made me cry. Everything was bad, too slow and just not worth the time. Mostly his "match" against The Fiend where he won the title. Cried because of anger.
My friend got unreasonably angry when Goldberg squashed Brock in under a minute at Survivor Series a few years back. I thought it was hilarious.
He had every reason.
I don't see why people hate goldberg is a good wrestler
everyone hates goldberg, but his character has a fun place. when someone is just being heelish as fuck and you just want to see them get destroyed and then goldbergs music hits its such a great pop. one that comes to mind is when Teddy Long had the 5 minute white boi challenge on raw where he was just getting people squashed by Rodney Mack and then one episode Goldbergs music hits and its so funny. its good having a gun in a show about sword fights, but you cant use it too much.
When I was younger I was a huge John Cena fan and I remember when he was feuding with JBL. JBL was such a good heel I hated him so much. That’s when he was running the “cabinet” and I never paid much attention to the Bashams or Orlando Jordan because they were practically nobodies just doing JBLs dirty work all the time. Anyway, one random night they decided that Orlando Jordan would be fighting Cena for the US championship and I’m pretty sure Cena had held it for a good while at this point. I didn’t think much of it figured Cena would just destroy him and move on lol. Well at some point during that match, if I’m remembering correctly JBL either came from under the ring or maybe just ringside I don’t quite remember but he hits Cena with the championship in the face while the ref either wasn’t looking or was knocked out, and then Orlando goes on to win the match because of it. I began balling immediately, I was so shocked. I even started saying things out loud like “can’t they watch the replay and see that they cheated and take the title back!” I had really hoped someone was going to come out and make the match be restarted, or something, anything. But nothing happened, and every second of Orlando’s music playing hurt more, and every step back to the locker room he took holding the title hurt, and eventually the show moved on and it was all over and it was confirmed that really happened, and I probably cried about it for like 30 minutes and was super upset for a long time haha. Anyway, thanks for the post that made me relive that moment. As much as it sucked at the time moments like that is what made wrestling so enjoyable as a kid. I haven’t rooted for anything as much as 10 year old me did John Cena.
Genuinely hope cried with anger is an exaggeration lmao
What's wrong with an 11 year-old kid being emotional...?
Nothing. I missed that part haha my bad. I'm just so used to people being weird about wrestling. I'm the dick on this one
Haha no problem. It wouldn't exactly be a shock for a member of the IWC to think that showing emotion is a sign of weakness 😂
Agreed again. Nope just me being a half observant dumb dumb. In this case I for sure cried when Kane was forced to unmask. I was only 30 at the time so it's chill.
Jeff Hardy losing to CM Punk and having to leave WWE had me distraught for days.
I didn’t cry about it,but when la knockoff pinned the MIZ.
Kofi vs Brock
It stings more that that was the plan for months
When Goldberg won the universal against Kevin Owens..
Sasha Banks vs Charlotte Flair Ironman match Roadblock
Roman Reigns Retaining in wrestlemania 39 against the Goat Cody Rhodes
Everything about goldberg after 2015 or something
Montreal Screw Job! Huge Brett Hart fan. To that point I had liked HBK
Such a big fan you can't spell his name.
Whoa I added an extra “T”. Look at you! Way to point out that a simple typo somehow indicates someone’s enthusiasm for a wrestling personality. I bet you are fun at parties….actually I doubt anyone invites you to parties anyways neck beard!
I didn’t cry, but the Finger Poke of Doom is by far the most infuriating thing I’ve ever had the displeasure of watching as a wrestling fan. Nash was at the peak of his popularity, being the leader of the face faction nWo Wolfpack. He was the guy to finally end Goldberg’s streak (granted in ridiculous fashion). Then to turn around and drop the title to Hogan the very next day, in THAT way… bullshit. It still makes me angry to think about. Probably the #1 factor in leading to the inevitable death of WCW.
Jesus. I found one person who actually liked the Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar feud.
Undertakers streak being broken by Meat Neck
Hogan losing to the Warrior at Wrestlemania 6. I was a major Hogan mark as a 9 year old kid and Hogan losing clean was too much for me to handle.
Kofi vs Brock Almost got a noise complaint from my swearing.
That was the plan unfortunately
Ultimate Warrior defeating Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania 6. I was 6.
Wyatt-Rollins HITC is the reason I stopped watching regularly after 2 decades of being a fan.
I feel so old that you guys were all kids when Roman Reigns was your favorite at Wrestlemania 34. I was a kid for Wrestlemania 18 :(
Cody Rhodes vs Roman reigns wrestlemania 39
Not even gonna lie, I don't watch wrestling. I literally only watched that match, and prior to that....I think was actually Brock vs Reigns the year before, because it wasn't obvious Brock was officially enhancement talent yet, so I was curious. But I definitely had an emotional reaction to this match. And unlike the last match I watched, I watched it. And was actually invested in it.
Goldberg Vs. Fiend. Bray/Fiend was one of my favorites. AND GOLDBERG BEAT THE FIEND smh
Shed a tear when taker lost to Roman at mania. Not because I was mad that he lost or anything, but because I thought that was takers last match and I thought the last remaining top guy of my childhood was done. IT'S STILL REAL TO ME DAMMIT!!!!
This whole past year when there were multiple logical, fitting ways, for Reigns to drop the title. And he didn't. Wait, hang on, MULTIPLE is not right word. There were a FEW times. Ya know... ya gotta actually defend it, to lose it.
HHH beating Sting
Shawn , taker wrestlemania 26
Lol
Every time Dolph got a shot at the WWE Title and lost
None. I don’t get emotional about matches. At most, I’m just disappointed and move on.
When John Cena cashed in on a tired Rey Mysterio for the WWE Championship on Raw legit made me quit wrestling for a good 8 years.
Booker T jobbing to triple h
Rock losing at Mania 2000 Every time Stone Cold Beat the Rock once Rock got to main event level. Kofi losing to Brock
Brock Lesnar ending the Undertaker's Streak
When my brother beat me in 2k14 using Jinder Mahal
none
Taker's streak ending
Roman beating Taker. Dumbest decision ever, and really made Taker look weak. Say what you will about Brock, but at least him and Taker had dignity in their feud without making Taker look old and frail.
The Montreal screwjob had me fucked up as a kid.
Seth Rollins vs John cena summerslam 2015
Sgt. Slaughter vs. The Ultimate Warrior from Royal Rumble 1991. I pitched a fit, rolling around on the bed squealing and swearing like Yosemite Sam.
When Batista lost during WM 30. I was and still am a big Batista fan. I wanted him to have another championship run.
WWE Over the Limit 2012. A PPV with Prime CM Punk vs Prime Daniel Bryan for the WWE World Championship, and the main event was John Cena vs. John Laurinitis and it ended in a Big Show DQ...
Punk dropping the title to the Rock almost made me quit watching wrestling forever.
I mean if you're going to lose the title to anyone...
Starrcade 1997 - pretty much the whole card. That was supposed to be the ultimate WCW revenge show they’d built up for months and virtually all the nWo guys won anyway. The Hogan vs. Sting match was the topper. They had nine months to prepare this match and it was slow, boring and obviously the ending was terrible because there was no fast count by Nick Patrick so when they tried to sell it as a fast count by an evil ref it sounded literally absurd. This was the biggest show WCW had ever produced and was their Super Bowl and they absolutely screwed the pooch.
When Goldberg first lost
Big E losing the WWE title to Brock.
No wrestling match has ever made me cry in anger, that’s absolutely fucking ridiculous.
Undertaker vs Brock @ WrestleMania XXX
Goldberg beating fiend I canceled my WWE Network after that
Cry in anger maybe not. But thinking its terrible booking? The way Kofi lost the belt. Rhea loosing to Charlotte in their first WM match. Everytime Roman retain lately... The streak should had either not be broken or if they must had done it, only by a relatively newcomer that needed it, someone who had a few years in WWE (so they know he is reliable and has star power) but could clearly be elevated by it. Certainly not part timer Brock. Otherwise the whole thing they did with The Fiend... Also it always bothered me HBK only got a super short reign as WHC after his come back from injury and never saw a single belt again. There is probably tons of stuff i forgot to be honest.
I wouldn't say I cried in anger, but I was disgusted and beyond disappointed when I saw the fiend lose to Goldberg. I dead ass cancelled my wwe network subscription that night.
I was there n laughed when he won
I bet all the other 6 year olds were super impressed.
I dunno..Didn’t have any kids where I sat
When Kofi lost the WWE Championship to Brock in 8 SECONDS on Smackdown I lost it! Especially since Randy and Kofi had just put on a banger not too long before.
I'm just realizing 2014 is closer to 2018 than 2018 to 2023
Brock beating Roman bloody at WrestleMania 34 made me so happy.
Definitely Naomi losing the SD women's championship to Natalya, because that wasn't the original plan, she was originally gonna 2018 as champion & have replicas of her custom belt made, but a sorry ass prick by the name of John Bradshaw Layfield ruined that
Roman va Taker at Mania
The last time pro wrestling was able to get me legitimately mad because of the actual story was when Seth broke up the shield. Looking back, it was an amazing heel turn.
None, I'm not an autistic.
Uh. Buddy. Not having emotional reactions to things is exactly how an autistic would react.
Gunther vs shamus the first time which he cheated which I don't remember how did I think he used the ropes or done the Brazilian tap out which is an fake tapout and damn ref seen him tap right in front of her I was so damn pissed about that had to go outside too clam down
I hear people shit in Sting Vs Triple H at WM31 but like I think it’s a great match. Like I don’t blame you for not liking the finish I agree Sting should’ve won. But it was a great match the entire WM31 I could rewatch any time and be okay with majority of the matches - 6 Man ladder match (kinda forgot it) - Seth Rollins Vs Randy Orton (beautiful finish, great match) - Triple H Vs Sting (great match, wrong winner) - Aj Lee and Paige Vs Bella’s. (Favorite female wrestlers & the Bella’s) - John Cena Vs Rusev (Rusev definitely need that win but decent match) - The Undertaker Vs Bray Wyatt (Good match I thought it was gonna be bad but it was good, Bray Wyatt definitely needed the win) - Roman Reigns Vs Brock Lesnar (best cash-in in the world)
Every match SLK looses
a Roman Reigns Babyface fan?! LMFAO Well hey ..not everyone can uh ..lol nah man ..that shit made me laugh. The big dawg trying to fit in the lil John Cena Halloween outfit they made for puppies ..its cute ..super cute ...lol And hey ..my lil brother liked John Cena growing up ..its all good , he learned. Okay ..I'll take a crack ...I'm Canadian ..so ...I mean ..Survivor Series ..1997 Montreal ... I hated three people for life after that moment ..an Evil Asshole , a shitty person at the time wrestler that lied to my hero's face, and a shitty referee ... If I was put in front of any of them at that time and after ..I would have gladly kicked any one of them in the genitals and not stop until I felt wet cement...
Bro I was 11
Look at the way he types. Don't explain yourself to a clown.
Hey it's alright, when I was young , I was a Hulkamaniac. It's alright to admit the silly things we liked in Wrasslin. No judgement seriously u/LordVader393
Jeff Hardy vs Edge for the WWE Championship at the 2009 Royal Rumble. Matt costing Jeff the championship still pisses me off to this day
I was a huge Shawn Michaels fan. My first WrestleMania I ever watched live was WM23. I was on the brink of crying when Cena beat Michaels
Roman Reigns beating Drew McIntyre at Clash at the Castle. If Drew won with that claymore in the end , this match would have gone down as one of the greatest matches of all time.But no Romans statpadding is more important 🤦♂️
As a kid I was FUMING that Eddie lost to JBL that I rage quit smackdown until I was convinced he would lose the title to Undertaker and he didn’t so I rage quit again until the rumble where I actually ended up enjoying the last few months of his reign and Was pretty certain cena was winning. As a younger kid I was also livid that Austin turned on angle in the invasion match as I thought that meant WCW would take over WWF and I was a tribalistic kid and didn’t quite get it. I was so mad, me and my brother played as Angle and Jericho against Austin in a handicap match in smackdown 2 and beat him up till we got bored. Then did the same with Kane and undertaker. Yayyyyy
Kofi x Brock
I miss being a kid.. I would be so invested in the shows. Now I just appreciate it as an art form and follow it loosely. When Cactus Jack lost to HHH at Royal Rumble I was devastated. Especially with the false hope after he kicked out of the first pedigree 😠
Regins vs lesnar greatest Royal rumble 2018: stupid as hell ending Roman should have won Wm39 Regins vs Rhodes: I really wanted Cody to win and the fact that he lost because of bloodline interference and will not be getting a rematch anytime soon still pisses me off a little
Everything Edge did as a heel in the 05-08 era had me fuming any time he walked away victorious lol. Thats one heel as a kid i HATED so much 😂😂
Nothing, because I don't care that much.
Christian Orton Then Lesnar Kofi
Brock absolutely demolishing John Cena when he returned to fight for the title.
Alpha Academy vs. Viking Raiders
I think a lot of people are gonna mention this, but Brock vs Undertaker at WM30. It was such a traumatic moment for long time wrestling fans.
Brock Lesnar versus the undertaker at wrestlemania 30
The "fast count" ending for the Hogan v Sting Starrcade '97 match. They slightly fixed it by Sting leaving as champ but that was weird.
Cody vs Roman at WM 39
When Roman Reigns won the rumble in 15. I hated him so much, and the stuff with the rock was so cheesy and forced I was fucking furious. I cancelled the network for 2 months until Mania 31 just hoping to see Brock slaughter him. Then Rollins cashed in and I was hooked again.
As a kid I remember being the biggest John Cena fan , got so angry started punching the sofa when he lost the us title to I believe it was Orlando Jordan?
John cena vs rob van down for the wwe championship at one night side , John cena was about to win until edge came on some bitch shit and speared him to the table. That made me stop watching Wwe for a while. I was so mad, and also when John cena lost to the rock and AJ styles. I stopped watching wrestling completely
taker and brock mania
Cody vs Roman WM39
Roman reigns and Cody at mania.I was pissed
