Guest Korrosive Report post Posted October 22, 2003 We all know that you aren't getting on top of the WWE unless Triple H or the Undertaker allow it. You may think i'm crazy but I think these 2 guys are responsible for guys like Benoit, RVD, and Eddie not getting the world title. You see, it took Undertaker approximately 7 years to win his first world title. It took Triple H about 4. I'm sure Paul and Mark want these guys to "pay their dues" before they are "ready" for a world title. With that in mind, RVD won't be winning the title until 2--5-2007 (if he somehow isn't fired) Benoit and Guerrero won't win their world title until 2004-2006.

But beating Hogan CLEANLY in the days where that NEVER happened is something to brag about. Er, didn't Flair slide in a steel chair, and Taker tombstoned Hogan on the steel chair to get the win and the title? Not exactly a clean win..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted October 22, 2003 Undertakers first reign is equal to Kane's in importance. It wasn't important. He defended it once (on T.V./PPV that is. He defended it against DBS on a house show that weekend) and lost the match to the guy he beat (with the help of Flair and a chair). Still, he WON the title, but not because Vince wanted him to have it. Just a way to get it on Flair w/o Hogan jobbing to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also Undertaker got instant approval as he beat Hogan for the title in his 1st year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Metal Maniac 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2003 then how did brock or kurt end up with the belt Because Vince knew before he ever put them on TV that they were GOING to be the champion, come Hell or high water. This is what gets me most about "It takes time to create new stars". It takes less then a year if they put fucking EFFORT into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
