Have to agree
Undercarder injuring another no draw was the only time that he indirectly drew a dime
>>2001195
begging ya to stop living paycheckk to paycheck
HBGays back was fine
He just knew that Austin was on the rise and no matter how many times he sucked Vince off his run at the top was finished. So he got "injured", jobbed once, and ran away. Taker took the role of being Austins bitch for the rest of the year that Shawn would have had
>>2001192
This might have been the best injury of all time

Lol Shawn would have never let that happen. He would have buried Austin like he did every other threat.
>>2001212
>buried Austin like he did every other threat
Hogan worked him into having an autistic fit in the ring once he found out he wasn't going over nor getting a second match, another example of an actual draw BTFOing HBGay
i enjoy hbk's matches and there's nothing you can do about it.
sounded like the guy needed a break at this time in his career, but he could put on, imho, great, entertaining matches
>>2001216
Only nerds and faggots hate HBK, he's one of the GOATs
>>2001212
him and hhh tried to end the rocks push by pushing for bret to take the IC belt off him (also to get bret out of the main event picture) but Bret vetoed it
>>2001218
>Michaels and Hunter conspired to obstruct Rock's push in March 1997, who was the Intercontinental Champion at the time. Michaels suggested to Vince McMahon that Rock lose the title to Hart on an episode of RAW. Meanwhile, Hunter insisted to Hart that he beat Rock. Their suggestion would serve two purposes - sabotage Rock's push and take Hart out of the world title scene. Hart, however, refused to beat Rock. Hart felt it wouldn't build heat for his newly launched heel turn, not to mention that it would undermine Rock. Instead, Hart insisted on a DQ finish, which infuriated Michaels and Hunter.
>>2001222
That sounds like they were trying to bury Bret more than Rock. Dont see how Rock losing the IC Belt to a 4x WWF Champ at the time would bury him..
>>2001245
Because if the Rock lost the belt and didn't have a heel turn in the bag he would've became wwf's Prince iaukea. If he lost his push he was finished.
>>2001354
>If he lost his push
That wasn't going to happen, Rock was only in wrestling bc of his family ties to Vince and he was failed Football player, he was basically the first Roman Reigns except he was God tier on the mic.
True. HBK would have politic his way to snub people out, who knows who we would have missed had HBK stayed healthy.
>>2001373
>Le family connections
Not an arguement.
I honestly believe Shawn redeemed himself when he got back
>>2001192
What the fuck was that supposed to be
>>2001192
He didn't even hit his back. He faked it like all the other injuries he faked.
>>2001222
Those two were such cock sucking faggots in the 90s.
This didn't injure him, he used it as an excuse because he lost his smile because he knew big match steve was taking his spot.
he tried to make it look like he dropped the strap because his back was hurt but it was really because he wasn't a draw.
>>2001215
That entire match is poetry.
>>2001373
>God tier on the mic
yeah because saying the same stupid lines about jabronis checking in and knowing their hole, every single night, is the pinnacle. please.
i really wish there had been a Scott Steiner or Kevin Nash around to point out what a jibbering idiot he was, The Crock was okay but had that stale "dicks and butts lol" trademark shawn & haitch banter that was also getting to be a real snooze to sit through
>>2002817
>Kevin Nash around to point out what a jibbering idiot he was
he was there in 2002 and the Rock BTFO'd him so hard he takes shot at him in every shoot interview to this day
>>2002817
Nash was >>>/trash/ on the mic.
>-t. 90s kid who grew up on Nitro

Match?
>>2003253
Look up Shawn v Hogan and you'll find it, especially when you see Shawn get punched once and do 9 somersaults
>>2001192
When shawn faked breaking his back so he could eat pills full time?
>>2003216
nEETwolfcucTV has a meltdown every time somebody threatens his delusional safe space.
>>2001192
Between this and being a coked up time bomb him leaving was completely best for business
>>2003502
>waffle house
Funny how Nash went off script to try and get a jab on Punk yet he's been complaining for fourteen years about Rock doing the exact same thing to him
>>2003502
>implying anybody was ever "mad" about the "waffle house incident"
Punk visibly didn't even give a shit when it happened, dumb anti-smarklet tripcuck.
>>2003540
The Rock got away scot free because he, just like Nash, was a top guy in their respective companies. I doubt Roddy Piper was crying when Nash went out and put everyone to sleep talking about potholes for ten minutes, but yet Nash still goes on about getting called "big daddy bitch" and how unfair it was
>>2003540
>what people say
Nash memers are literally illiterate.
>>2003546
Remember that one time the entire first hour of Nitro was a Nash retrospective? And when asked why he did it, he said "because he could"?
