Don't remember if Jake Roberts was upset at Austin mocking his religious beliefs but Jarrett took a personal offense to Austin's 3:16 promo and him being the symbol of the edgier direction wrestling was heading towards.

Everything after him insulting WWF and Vince in the promo was all unscripted stuff. Its why whatever big plans WWF had for Jarrett got quickly dropped and when those plans resumed in 1999, Austin remembered Jarrett's attempt to wreck his gimmick so he returned the favor by wrecking Jarrett's chance at a big push.

Austin had long-stemming heat with Jarrett as it was, going back to the dying days of the territories. I'm sure he was only too happy to leverage Jarrett out of pretty much any opportunity for the sake of sweet, sweet schadenfreude.

Loved London & Kendrick as a team. Hated when they advertised a four-team rematch at No Way Out only for the bait and switch to be Deuce N’ Domino to smack ‘em in the mouth and get the belts.

Mr. Nerfect 03-24-2019 12:19 PM

Armageddon was traditonally a very shit PPV. Besides the spectacle of the 2000 Hell in a Cell, I think the next two highlights are the Ladder Match and Funaki’s “Armageddon your Cruiserweight Title” line in 2004. I think it was aimed at heel Spike Dudley, if you remember his run as “The Boss.”

Jeff Hardy won his first World Heavyweight Title at Armageddon in 08.

Austin and JR are the reason Jarrett left for WCW in 99. Vince put JR in charge of getting Jeff resigned in 99, but JR dragged his feet on getting the contract done because of Austin. Reportedly, Road Dogg cut a promo on Jim Ross and Vince was fuming at JR.

Seems WWE was extra lazy with their handling of all the trademarks they got from WCW's purchase.

Turns out another former WCW trademark ended up in the possession of someone else. This time involving Lethal Lottery which was used in the early 90s by WCW.

Interesting enough is this trademark is related to one filed earlier by Cody Rhodes for Battlebowl since it was used in that match type.

Within the past couple of years, they allowed someone else to trademark WarGames, Halloween Havoc, Battlebowl, Bash at the Beach, Bunkhouse Stampede, and now Lethal Lottery. Arn Anderson is also in the process of owning some rights to the Four Horseman trademark.

Wait so Cody/AEW bought BattleBowl/Lethal Lottery? Eh... bad purchase. Leave that shit to TNA.

Apparently Taker once sent a photo of his balls to Big Show as a post-match prank.

"We had a great match many years later, one of my favorite matches I've ever had. I sent him a text a bit later and said, 'Hey man, thanks for such a great match, I appreciate everything you've done for me, you're the man'. He sends me a text back and it's a picture of his balls and he's flipping me the bird." Big Show said. "I didn't know how to reply to that. I didn't see him for about a month afterwards and when I did, he just went red and started laughing. I said, 'Yeah thanks for that' and he asked, 'Well, did you get the message?'. Yeah, loud and clear."

Someone else applied for the Lethal Lottery trademark.

According to Cody, he doesn't have any plans to use Battlebowl or Bunkhouse Stampede in AEW and only did it for sentimental reasons since Dusty invented both matches.

Main Event is a word thrown around in WWE loosely. I am very happy about this if it actually means what it means.
