Sure sounds 'amazing'

>>2513220
This sort of.

I really do think 2016 was a pretty good year for wrestling. And I think 3017 is doing just fine so far. Especially coming from 08-12

pfffft HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA *breathes* AHAHAHAHAHAHA

outside of Shane returning and Cena carrying that redneck faggot to three good matches everything on here was shit

>can't remember a single thing about Dean's title run except how boring the Ziggler match was
>Owens and Becky were joke champions
>the HIAC was shit
>Nakamura had one good match
AJ was the only worthwhile part of the year as far as the main roster went

that first line is bullshit because it literally correlates with the last thing you said

was 10x better than 2015,which wasn't hard to do but still it has that going for it

2016 was pretty based, particularly from an in-ring perspective and even from a writing perspective, SmackDown was spinning gold from like August straight to the end of the year.

2017 is off to a good start too and if they finally commit to Roman going heel (lol), it could be outstanding.

ITT it's the year 3017

And still RoboCornette complains that wrestling isn't what its used to be.

There was plenty of great non-AJ matches in WWE this year. I think almost all of them were in NXT, but still.

Let's see, though
>Intercontinental Ladder Match
>Intercontinental Fatal Four Way
>Money in the Bank
>Zayn vs. Owens @ Battleground
>Cesaro vs. Sheamus Match 7
>Survivor Series: Raw Tag Teams vs. SmackDown Tag Teams
>Goldberg vs. Lesnar
>Cesaro and Sheamus vs. New Day
>One of the Owens/Rollins matches, I dunno which one.

Yeah that's about it.

2016 was like living out the worst case scenario of wrestling abandoning any veil of masculinity it had and becoming an American Idol rip-off. People don't like the idea of a big bad guy as champ, they want the hard-working manlet as top guy and they yell "YOU DE ZERVE IT!" the night he wins it and they stop watching the program the next night because an underdog has no purpose after he wins. It's record-low rating D-Bry all over again.

I forget, is Money in the Bank still a thing? I remember it having its own PPV then becoming a Wrestlemania meme because one Hell in a Cell ppv isn't enough.

>all Indy shit

Nah it was horrible

>>2513365
Yeah, it's its own PPV. It's SmackDown exclusive this year.
