A very very very entertaining performer circa 1998 to 2006 like ludicrously entertaining. Dont thunk there will ever be a better Heel/Foil and Lord knows they’ve tried time and time again to copy the formula.

3 for the sheer entertainment. Such a bizarre fucking sociopath though, easily one of the most unlikeable people on the planet

Haha wow. Hes such a bizarre man, and he put himself on TV too much but during 1998 to 2001, he was one of the greatest performers on tv. The storyline with Austin is perfectly done, and he’s genuinely an amazing actor.

As an in ring performer he wasnt good but better than he had any right to be. Absolute fool now, washed up, but gave me.some of my fondest memories of tv ever

Genuinely have no idea how to rate this man, I equal parts love and hate him, I guess that means a 3?

He’s an awful person, but utterly fascinating.

Having to restart a botched Royal Rumble from a seated position because he’d innocuously fucked both his legs power-walking missing from the best moment poll also

Forgot that! Loved how he tried to sell the sitting down as intentional with his arms crossed :joy:

Might be apocryphal but I think the story was he tore one entering the ring, then insisted on walking to the back unaided and tore the other one on the way.

I mean, an incredible heel really. 10/10 as a character. Middling wrestler.

Fucking weird toxic cunt whose behaviour’s literally contributed to the deaths and misery of quite a lot of people, though. 0/10.

An incredibly bizarre man. Pure evil incarnate in many ways - he won’t think twice about destroying people if it serves himself or for the most spurious reasons and yet he’s also a father figure to an large number of people who’ve been through horrific things themselves.

I’m not sure there’s ever been a better heel character than Mr McMahon tbh. Limited as he was in the ring, he did things a largely untrained man his age had no right to (he was in his 50s when he debuted!) and was capable of getting red hot heel heat on himself. As a character he’s probably a 4 overall though due to his limitations and overuse.

fascinatingly weird human, almost certainly awful, but as a pro wrestling performer, man, he’s just the best.

really sad that he can’t be on tv more, because when he does turn up he’s still great

this was in philadelphia, the same arena where earlier that year roman was booed out of the building after winning the rumble. vince (and steph, earlier in the night) gets that hostile crowd going nuts for roman winning the title. he’s the best

oops sorry col, didn’t mean to reply to you there

Proper loved The Corporation

Shane with his shit eating grin, Patterson and Briscoe being utter weasels, The Rock being the most arrogant prick alive, Bossman looking menacing, Shamrock looking psychotic, Test was there too

Just a great bunch of different personalities
