    Honestly, with how many satellite belts each federation has, I'm a bit surprised it is "only" four years.

    The thing I like about Taker is it easily fades into oblivion as a one off that doesnt require follow up

    I don’t know about ever passing JR, or Gorilla and the Brain, or Jesse, or even Vince. But once his run does end, I can see a lot of fans start considering him the voice of their childhood and beyond, and that’s definitely something to be proud of.

    Now it's officially official. Cody still had Roman's plates on during his McAfee appearance today and mentioned about how it was keeping that moment alive a little longer.

    It'd be funny if they put Drew's plates on as part of the tradition, then took them right off.

    Damn. Triple H is in god mode right now in the fans' eyes.

    Can't wait to see how tonight's show goes on.
