    And to think, Terry Funk was the 53 year old hardcore legend seemingly on his deathbed 23 years ago, as he outlasted two others and then best Raven at Barely Legal to win the Ecw world title.  Funk got unanimous praise, unlike Goldberg.

    Knowing this board’s tastes, they’d want to see Funk vs Roman because he still throws beautiful punches.

  2. That’s so true about kids and Goldberg. My nephew also saw Goldberg’s entrance in one of those 2K games and he wouldn’t shut up about it. Goldberg’s mystique is alive and well with little kids. If there’s anyone they can buy beating The Fiend, it’s the guy who beat Brock Lesnar in a minute, who has highlights on the Network of him giving The Big Show a Jackhammer and who always shows up on tv and destroys everybody.

    @Overly Critical Man what's confusing? It's a fresh feud of two talented individuals 

    I think it was the use of the word “finally” that confused me, as I think there’s been lots of women feuds in the WWE that I would say were interesting watches in the last year. Unless you meant the Smackdown brand and Bayley specifically.

    Bianca Belair.  She does have a title match this week but I mean come on,  she has about as much of a chance as Ricochet does in Saudi.  She shouldn't go over Rhea Ripley,  not now of course because Rhea is red hot but that begs the question why has she had so many title opportunities where it's clear as day she's just there to do the job?  

    I'm sure someone in the back thought she'd be fine because look how many people she eliminated in the Rumble but no.. she's not fine.  She has a reputation of failing when it matters most. 

    I'm starting to think they view her as a good talent that can put other people over and that's the absolute dumbest thing they should be thinking because she has a star quality and they are failing to capitalize on it. No surprise either.  

    How else can they capitalize on Bianca Belair? If she doesn’t get a title shot it could be seen as a waste but the fact she IS getting one is also a waste? In this thread alone, I’ve seen Ruby Riott, Bianca Belair, Montez Ford and Liv Morgan described as wrestlers that “deserve better”. The idea that everyone deserves it is the reason why the detestable concept of 50/50 booking exists. If everyone is special...then no one is special. And even when WWE tries to do something with these wrestlers it’s still not seen as good enough. The fact is, not everyone can be pushed straight to the top at the same time and someone’s gotta put over the actual chosen ones. And I’m glad they’ve actually decided to strike when the iron is hot for once and Rhea is their chosen one. If Bianca or Io or Shayna or Charlotte or whoever has to be sacrificed for that greater good then so be it.

    It was the medal Leia was holding on her death bed, so it was likely Han's medal from ANH. Something that would likely mean a lot to him for multiple reasons, much more than a consolation prize

    iirc, Lucas said Wookies don’t really care about medals, but I can see how Han’s medal would carry a lot of significance to Chewie and why that scene is more than just Chewie getting a random prize.

    Sasha made a feud with Lacey entertaining in about 5 seconds.   Becky couldn't do it in months.  WWE still doesn't realize who the star of the SD women's division is.

    Let’s be honest here...Lacey Evans’ daughter made Sasha interesting in 5 seconds.
