    Being reported that Paige has to retire from wrestling, only 25 could have had a great career

    In fairness, she already had a great career. Look at all she achieved

    I've watched the first two Raws ever on the network due to the 25th anniversary and after listening to Rob Bartlett I'll never complain about any WWE commentators again. All is forgiven.

    He was a walking cringe machine! It's so bad it's good now.

    There is one point where he calls doink something like durk and Vince just
    stares at him. It's brilliant.

    I'm quite surprised Vince hasn't been #Metoo'd so far.

    I don't really think it would work on McMahon because for it to really gain traction, it has to be someone with a high mainstream profile and a pretty clean reputation. Vince has been through so much scandal in his time as boss of WWE that he could probably just shrug off whatever accusations were levelled at him, unless they were properly heinous.

    If it did happen to Vince, it would be the least shocking revelation ever.

    I've just watched the "Top 25 moments of Raw" on the network and would now love to see a "Toy Story" style show with all the former characters all living in the Raw warehouse with Mooney and the conquistador's

    There was one a few years ago that mysteriously disappeared all of a sudden. I'm not saying a payoff was involved.

    Only thing Vince has to worry about is that his wife is a part of the US's current administration and she wouldn't want any dirt splashing on her, and....Oh, wait, it's the Trump presidency, so she's no worry about standing out on the controversy front.

    Watched Eddie Guerrero vs Rey Mysterio Jr at Halloween Havoc 1997 last night, man that suicide dive into a head-scissors is just unbelievable and never gets old.

    He was accused of raping female referee Rita Chatterson in 1986.

    Don't think it ever went anywhere.

    There was a Gym attendant about 10 years ago too, that's the one I was thinking of. Either a gym or a tanning place.

    Just watching Ground Zero and Bret vs The Patriot, and the crowd are loving the latter, however I'm surprised at how much of a chump they made him out to do in the finish.

    He taps out right at the ropes where in this day age, no one taps out when they are in that position in the ring. Then he takes a beating post match.

    Now I know there are conflicting reports out there about the guy, where Jim Cornette would say he was a victim of the politics at that time, while others say it's because the guy didn't fess up to injuries and they just got worse, but I couldn't help but feel bad for the guy.

    Having said that, Bret cuts an almighty promo after the match. Really was at his best at the time of his departure.

    I often wonder how good would the Hart Foundation vs DX feud have gotten if Bret hadn't left or did DX need the catalyst of Bret leaving to really kick on themselves.

    That's right, it was a tanning salon attendant somewhere in in Florida IIRC.

    I've no doubt that he was or still is a bit of a perv, and I'd be inclined to believe the stories.

    Sad really to think about it as I'd have a lot of respect for him in others ways, his tireless work ethic, drive and ambition etc.

    He's made out with basically all the Divas in the Ruthless Aggression era. Like imagine the pitch if you were one of the girls, ''Eh Vince wants to do a bit where you and him get it on...''. If you say no it could be future endeavours or you're playing Katie Vick's kid or something.

    that 02/03/04 version of Vince was very odd

    he was having an affair with his personal assistant sable, chatting up women galore and had a match with Stephanie

    And then we got that brutal I Quit match between him and Steph.

    To be fair, I thought the match itself was better than it had any right to be! But the angle was a disaster.

    Well I meant brutal as in vicious (though it's been a few years since I've seen it, so I could be remembering it differently to how it was).

    And his Plan B was having Shane be the father. Both siblings nixed it. Vince, what a twisted carny.

    Speaking of Shane, did we ever find out what that secret was meant to be in the lockbox (Taker match at WM32)? Or was it just never gonna be revealed and there for story purposes?

    Wasn't Vince sexually abused by his mother or something when he lived with her in a trailer?
