    Big Bad Bart had huge potential after he won the Brawl for All tourney. They destroyed that then when he was put up against Butterbean at Wrestlemania.

    Bart Gunn had little charisma in the WWE and just seemed to be one of those guys doomed to be lost in the shuffle. His winning the Brawl for All was impressive, but it was not exactly a breakout moment ala Austin 3:16. Fans, at that time just didn't care about legitimate tough guys as much as they wanted to be entertained by outrageous storylines. If they did, Steve Blackman and Ken Shamrock would have been way bigger. Gunn managed to get through the WWE roster in BfA, but that was a field of untrained boxers, really. When he came up against an actual competitor, he got knocked the F out.

    Same has been said about Dr. Death Steve Williams, who also participated in the BFA. Touted as a big star, got creamed, never heard from again. Really, the whole tournament was a bad idea, and I can only imagine it caused friction backstage as well.

    The people on the SquaredCircle subreddit can be very unrealistic with their ideas.

    Their blind hatred of Sheamus is a bit annoying, too. Like, all you have to do to get a few upvotes is post "F*ck Sheamus" apropos of nothing in a thread. Even if you find Sheamus unbearable, that kind of hive mind carry on is equally irritating.

    My face when I heard Paige was going to be on Stone Cold's WWE Network podcast:

    I realise she was replacing Hogan but surely you could think of somebody better than her! Who cares!?!

    Do we know whether it's the case that Paige was an emergency interview or she was just the next in the bank?

    No way people could like something you don't.

    Definitely not, totally implausible.

    Yea who wants to hear from the 22 year old female vet who comes from a wrestling family! A woman/diva who started the womens wrestling revolution last year on NXT and then in WWE. F*ck Paige :rolleyes:

    Sorry lads.
    But at the end of the day, I'd pick Hulk Hogan over Paige.

    She was really good the two times she was on Jericho's podcast and is probably one of the better people I've seen that does Q&As at Comic Cons.

    Realistically speaking, the standard of guests that Austin was going to get on his podcasts was always going to gradually diminish, there's nowhere but down from the McMahons I suppose, Paige is quite a drop off from his previous guests though circumstances left them in a predicament.

    This is what I'm saying, you go from Paul Heyman to this.

    I like Paige but following her on Instagram leads me to believe that she's the same as all the dolly birds she gives out about ...

    It's something that bugs me on social media, women/ fellas taking pictures of themselves half naked....immediately I think "that person is a narcissistic pr!ck"

    See your point but it's best not to get too worked up on what someone in their early 20's says and does be it on social media or not. She plays a role as the anti diva but I'm sure she still has the same insecurities we all do or did at that age. Wouldn't say it's narcissism really.

    I tend to not think bad things when Paige starts showing her arse off. Probably just me though... :pac:

    I get your point but I think it's more a case of knowing your audience and fanbase.

    Possibly referring to Paige's onscreen gripe with the Bellas?

    My favourite live enterances have to be Punk at 'Mania 29 and Randy and Wyatt at 'Maina 30.

    Rev Theory were garbage at 'Mania 30 but it looked so cool seeing Randy swagger down with the two titles and have the band playing him out.

    Every time a wrestler dies, I pray that they don't turn into the wrestling version of Paul Walker.
