Patrick B. Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 In an attempt to prevent a mid-month thread stoppage: I really miss King Of The Ring. Out of all the gimmick PPVs they have nowadays, I wish they hadn't ditched the one with the most history(only dusting it off when they need to fill out a random Raw). If they did KOTR this year, would would benefit most from winning it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenbat Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Way too early WM booking idea but I had to share. Reigns wins the title, Rollins cashes in, Ambrose breaks it up. Rollins says "let's do this!" FIRST EVER TRIPLE THREAD CASH IN! SHIELD VS SHIELD! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my head I have a while eighteen month plan to go into sympathetic baby face after Lana ditches him when he fails for the title, becomes a bitch to Lana's new dude, Cena takes him under his wing, shows him Ahhhmericuh! Two months feud with replacement, ends at the King of the Ring! A star is born!It's so easy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nature Boy Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 King Rusev with Queen Lana would be glorious. Tsar Rusev and Tsarina Lana would be even more glorious. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scraylo187 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I'd say Rusev or Cesaro for King of the Ring. Hell, I'd watch them main event a KOTR PPV with that final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spontaneous Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I miss King of the Ring but I feel Money in the Bank has replaced it. I wish they would do it annually as a RAW in say October to build to Survivor Series or something but it was annually one of their lowest sellers so I guess I can't blame them. Would like to have seen Cesaro or someone else in the mid card win it, to give them a boost. King Cesaro could have worked wonders for him.

Nice Guy Eddie Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 King Cesaro made too much sense. Hell, we already had the King of Swing shirt in the style of the old KOTR logo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dre013 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Watching 1995 ECW TV. A few observations...three way tag feud with Public Enemy/Taz & Sabu/Benoit & Malenko is entertaining as hell...I still don't get why Dreamer was over here, he is terrible in the ring and mic, unlikeable...Mikey Whipwreck was better than I remembered, a bump machine with some unique offense.

Josh Mann Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Gene's looking well. He needs to give us some new Legends Roundtables. The whole thing was great but I just about died at the callback to 1989 at the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonL21 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Since it's been 20 years to the event that opened the arena, When was the last time the WWE ran at the United Center? I know it's a busy venue, but one would think it should at least get a show or two a year. It's almost like they have some sort of deal with the AllState Arena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Lord Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I never understood why they never went back after Summerslam 94. I know WCW always used the United Center for Nitro's so I figured that probably had something to do with it. WCW had the United Center in Chicago. The WWF had Madison Square Garden. Much like the new Comiskey Field (which looked a hell of a lot like the remodeled Yankee Stadium) in the 90's, the United Center was the midwest's MSG with Jerry Reinsdorf. Maybe Vince just doesn't like him and that's why he won't even rent the building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Don't get me wrong; ALS is horrible and I'd dearly love to see an end to it. But "raising awareness" is just a way for people to feel good about themselves without actually, you know, doing anything. So kudos to HHH. Wait a minute, Cool Arrow has been Lance Storm this entire time If you don't get the reference, follow Lance's twitter page in the last 4 or 5 hours. Needless to say he has some pretty strong opinions on it as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed that ease of access was one of the reasons why Vince never went back to the United Center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Meanie Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Thank you Sean and Mike McGuirk. I got excited thinking that we'd actually see Sean Mooney. Still hoping for the day of Ian Mooney's return, also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 At a guess, it's stuff that's been said. 1) WWE has a relationship with Allstate Arena going back to when it was the Rosemont Horizon in the 80s. 2) It's probably a hell of a lot cheaper to rent. 3) Ease of access from O'Hare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Sorrow Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Supposedly they recorded some Legends shows with Bruno last year when he was inducted into the HOF. I'm chomping at the bit for those, if only to see some of the panelists awkwardly back up on their Bruno bashing from the 70's ep. The one where Hayes and company shit on Bruno until JJ Dillion speaks up and basically owns them all about how awesome and important Bruno was.
