The only thing to upset about last night was the shield didn't get more time to cook. At least 5 more minutes
I get it; he was champ tell me again please
He still went 4-3 overall and had a short lived career no matter how you break it down
I don't think he lived up to the hype in the least...that's my opinion so you won't change it
If you used to sell tickets then the expectations are there
What company puts someone as their face but has no expectations for them?

Would've came down eventually anyway. Market's been weak so that crack was due.Investor expectation doesn't matter the stock has doubled since November basically. It was due for this pull back. I blame the streak ending if anything
So the expectation of a higher subscriber number than what was delivered didnt impact the $6 per share dive?

Sidebar: am I the only one who thinks that Cesaro could not do a swing on Big Show if he tried? A pick up and throw over the top is one thing, but let's not get carried away. Seems the entire internet is certain it's possible except me.
I understand they used his name to sell tickets, but that doesn't necessarily means there was a consensus that he would be successful. They used his name because he was popular in wrestling. And at the time, wrestling and UFC fans were kinda sorta the same person.UFC used his name to sell a lot of tickets and PPV's and hyped him up big time
He never lived up to that hype if you ask me
So unless there was a general expectation that he would be a star, which he was, I don't know how he can be considered a bust.
I agree.I can't agree with that. Popular people (regardless of success) are used to sell ticket. Case-in point. Jeremy Lin. Jeremy Lin was a marketing machine first and foremost. He had decent talent but he sold tickets. He drew ratings. But his skill level did not match that. Do we consider him a bust? Not at all. He is an overachiever.If you used to sell tickets then the expectations are there

I just don't understand how a dude goes from pro wrestling and moves to UFC< dominates briefly, and then gets brought back down to earth is considered a bust.
There were so many question marks heading into his career. Like I said, if he was EXPECTED to be a beast, sure. But he wasn't.
I don't see how the, "He was used to sell tickets" arguments holds water. He was used to sell tickets because his NAME was recognizable. Not because people projected him to be the best.
Thank you man. Brock is a freak of nature. Yes he has assistance but all of what you said is so true.I agree.
I know people who have boxed and done MMA at the amateur and pro level. I myself have trained and sparred to stay in shape and keep my speed up. What Brock was able to accomplish with no prior experience is respectable. Bear in mind that dude was battling a disease that nearly killed him. That played a role in the way he fell off towards the end.
Dude is a physical freak. Would've liked to of seen him give it a shot in his 20s and without the illness hanging over his head.
Like him or hate him, dude is one tough mofo.
I think his last few matches already did that, for me, at least. I thought he's definitely been on fumes the last few years and last year was just everything he had left. You can tell he was completely done last night.
Yeah I agree; I really wasn't excited about his last few matches
I still think they should have had HBK end the streak then retire on his own terms
Use the Alert Bar pleighboi.Nt need a auto refresh option, I was tired of manually refreshing this page last night or for that matter every Monday night raw. Could work with major release threads also
After last night, I started frequenting some of the old wrestling boards that I used to be heavily active on as a kid all the way til around the time I graduated from undergrad.How many of you non-wrestling dudes looked at the post count of this thread and THEN decided to come take a look at what was going on.
is sting really gonna be on raw tonight? dont wanna tune in for nothing
