I remember JBL was feuding with Shawn and somehow Shawn was working for him, I dont remember Jericho feuding with JBL. Because JBL was so overpushed and forgettable, the only feuds and matches that he had that anyone remembers were the Eddie and Cena ones. And that's only because both men almost bled to death trying to get him over. The Cena match isn't even talked about all that much. And that was Cena's Muta scale moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies if wrong! I am a sneakerhead but Shawn Michaels is the last guy I'd think of as 'cool' in 2020... :lol: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I should go back and check out 2008 PPV on the network I remember enjoying that year, lots of fresh talent like Punk emerging and Umaga, Taker was still a workhorse Finlay still going 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrestleMania XXIV is a top three WrestleMania of all time, No Mercy is a must see and you had the celebrated Chris Jericho/Shawn Michaels feud. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Log Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 WWE, for seeing themselves as this gigantic multi-national entertainment company, sure like to do storylines where their employees (yes, I know, “independent contractors”) are barely hanging on financially.

Jericho was so good in 2008 that as a dickhead heel he won a kayfabed Slammy for wrestler of the year because he was shoot the wrestler of the year. One of the best runs you’ll see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a long list. But Walmart, etc don’t do commercials about it. WWE has done the Michaels storyline and did a similar one with Big Show. They also had Kevin Owens (as a face) begging for his job to Shane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
