>>19538617Completley forgot Punk cashed on Edge with the help of Batista. Thanks OP for the link
>>19538617>Tanks the ratings in three seperate decadesPhil and Paul have more in common than you'd think
>>19538617CVV knows his history
>>19538640Cena was the one in charge of RAW at the time. Any tanking was completely and totally his fault
>>19538617>Punk still wrestling>Edge still wrestling>Batista is a fag now
>>19538942pretty sure cena was injured around this time
>>19538617why don't they keep the history of the old and the current title at one, yet it's separated
>>19538617>>19538951Does pro wrestling have an aging crisis? Seems like very few athletes/body builders in their 20s want to get into the industry.
>>19538951Literally can’t and dare wouldn’t make this up in 2008. Grim
>>195386172008 was such a forgettable year outside of Mania 24 & Jericho's heel run.
>>19540580Don't quote me, but I believe it is because the history of the OG WHC is part of the WWE title when they unified it with Big Gold at the end of 2013.
>>19541154Mania 24 was really good, but yeah 2008 sucked overall and it was the last vestiges of the Ruthless Aggression era playing themselves out.
>>19538617Bro Punk looks like a homless person here
>>19543644Truther faith
>>19540591Why would they? They'd have to language for years on the indies or in developmental. At best they'd be jobbing nightly to all these old 48 year olds still on top.
>>19538914He just takes everything from other pages
>>19538617I hate how WWE always retcons their own retcons...This new belt is separate from the historic WCW belt, but somehow now it's the exact same thing, despite the fact that canonically, the WCW belt is merged with the WWE belt and universal title, which is the one Cody now has. Brock combined them into one ~10 years ago when he beat Cena at summerslam. End of autism rant.
>>19545555if they say its the same thing it's the same thing. it's a fake sport lmao
>>19545563Of course it's a fake sport, but can they at least try even a little bit? It seems their fans are just too dumb to even care about continuity..The whole reason this belt even exists is cause Roman showed up 10 times a year to work
>>19538617Technically it's closer to 17 years, not 18.
>>19545580it's not your fault for being an anti-social sperg retard, it's fans' fault for being too dumb to care
>>19545982I'm not anti-social lol but seriously the belt that Punk currently has is its own entity. It has no actual lineage.
>>19545982NTA but to be fair, he has a point. Remember when they retired the US title during the Invasion storyline only to bring it back for the inaugural brand split? They kept the lineage there.
