I think it's funny sometimes to see commentary from back in the day when certain events actually took place. For example, this was written by Rick Scaia after the WWF Mind Games PPV in 1996 where Sandman spit beer in the face of Savio Vega in the first match: "Inconveniently enough, they spill out to the exact side of the ring where the ECW guests are seated. Savio regains the advantage outside, but stumbles just within range of the Sandman; and Sandman takes the opportunity to spit a mouthful of beer in Savio's face. Savio is surprised by this, and Sandman decides he wants to rumble, afterall. Savio figures he'd better just let it be, and hauls Bradshaw back into the ring while Paul E. and Dreamer try to contain Sandman, and are eventually hauled out of the building themselves. Throughout the ordeal, McMahon says only, "Well, there is the local wrestling company we told you about earlier... and some of their wrestlers are in attendence here tonight, trying to make a name for themselves at the expense of the WWF. This is an unfortunate incident, and our cameras will not shoot this footage." The cameras did indeed stay wide, and we only saw bits and piece of the trio being escorted away. Work or real sabotage attempt? My gut says this is the beginning of a promotion vs. promotion angle that will make WCW's contrived "NWO" look downright lame." The internet wrestling community says a lot...what are some things looking back, that you or others said that is kind of funny now to look back on?

Because it's "The Cage." "The Cage" has been involved in some of the greatest matches in wrestling history. But, who could forget "The Ropes," or "The Turnbuckle," or "The Mat?" "The Apron"'s a legend killer. It ended Steamboat's career. That fiend "exposed steel turnbuckle" has ended many a match and spilled much blood.

"BAH GAWD!!! It's CAGE!!! He's back for the second time tonight!!!!" JR: That cage has no business out here, dammit! DAMN YOU TO HELL, CAGE!!! DAMN YOU STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!

Glen Jacobs is looking more and more like an old man every week.

Jamal splashing Carmella would be kinda funny.

There's always Garrison Cade to steal a briefcase full of money.

The hardsell for the PPV is on so what match did they not hype yet? The brilliance of them combining those two pay per view tag matches into one match tonight was pure brilliance. Booking GENIUSES, I tell ya!

He can always put the ladder in a resthold.

So by the power of "the guy who loses at the show before the pay per view wins at the pay per view" booking logic is Jericho going to win at Unforgiven?

Wow, big win for Tomko.

They should run a Cartman-like storyline where another guy sees Eugene's success, so he pretends to be a retard to get in the WWE. "DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!"

Yeah, it's so last RAW episode.

Did they ever explain why Jericho and Christian get the shot at the IC title on Sunday? Wouldn't, like...other wrestlers want a shot at the belt?

Doesn't matter...nobody ever wins by going out the door anyways. HHH just pulled it off. HHH is always the exception to the rule I suppose.

Doesn't matter...nobody ever wins by going out the door anyways.

That'd be kinda cool. Or not. I'm not sure.

Why do they always have cage matches on RAW and Smackdown but almost never on PPV?

Trish looks quite fetching tonight, I dare say!

He was heating up when he hit those German suplexes, and then when he hit that headbutt he was just on fire.

And that's different than 90% of WWE PPVs how? But are'nt the PPVs spaced out 6 weeks now? It looks like The Creative is made of several college freshmen who started writing a research paper at midnight when it is due at 8 AM the next mourning. I'm not arguing with you. We see it all the time and it's pathetic. They've shown the ability to have about 2 storylines going at once, and no more than that.

Man, it'd be sweet if there was a no countout match tonight.

And that's different than 90% of WWE PPVs how?

Sure, why not?

They might as well have made it a TLC match. Well, at least there will be one pretty entertaining match on the show, even if we've seen it a zillion times before.

Someone has a sign that says "We're Eugene's friends". That HAS to be a plant.
