    You have to watch matches without your modern day lenses. You cant judge a match based on today. If it werent for the early day wrestlers, todays wrestling wouldnt exist. They paved the way. If you watch bret vs shawn today, sure, it doesnt seem great. But for the time it was amazing. Keep in mind we were coming right out of the era where the marquee matches were like Ultimate Warrior vs. Hulk Hogan or Greg Valentine vs. Harley Race. It was a HUGE DIFFERENCE.

    HHH vs. Rock should have Headlined WrestleMania 2000 (16). I am a huge Helmsley fan, and seeing him retain at Mania was cool and all, but the Backlash 2000 main event should have been the Mania Main event. But I guess Austin wasnt ready until April, so they did what they did. IF the Mania main event goes down the same way Backlash did, it would be remembered as one of the greatest main events in Mania history.

    Vince didn't pin the US justice system 1-2-3, he kicked out at 2 and a half. They were trying to pin him.
    Then Vince used Diesel to ruin the illusion of wrestling. Bret Hart just spent a year defending against the pesky, determined Bob Backlund, eventually losing in peak drama.
    Of course we know how quickly and easily it transitioned to Diesel.. and stayed on him for a year of boring stories.
    Vince must have been living his untouchable status vicariously thru Big D... And it almost cost him the company
