Not when he returned in late-2002. This is a 2008 Kane. …exactly my point…

Anyone see the McFarlane BvS Batman at any Targets? I saw Crystal Lake got a full case of the Bale-bats but haven’t seen Affleck anywhere yet.

Found a chase Punk at Crystal Lake Walmart (first AEW chase I’ve ever found). The rest of the set is there.

Anyone see the new steelbook section at any NW Walmarts? Looking for a copy of Snyder’s Justice League. Woodstock put theirs out a few days ago but didn’t have the one I wanted.

Just got mine today. Love it. I did swap the neck peg for the JL Affleck one and it helps give him that beefier neck and cowl.

FA Rey was my most anticipated figure from the set. Lame.
That HHH headscan is ridiculous. It’s suppose to be early-corporate HHH and they got the picture on the box right but gave him that goofy DX head.

Has anyone seen the Hogan 3 pack? Never found them. Other than the new legends and basics it’s been pretty dry Target app and Popfinder shows that they're in Elgin, Wheeling, and West Schaumburg. I was in both Elgin Targets this morning. Nothing on the shelves.

Bottom line: the people who are upset will still be watching after WM. Rock/Roman is a mainstream match and those are the people they hope to grab additional revenue from.

The problem is that the marks wanted to ignore reality. The reality is that Roman is going to break Hogan’s record. The reality is that they've been trying to book Roman vs Rock at Wrestlemania for the last 2-3 years. The reality is wrestling is about making money, and there's a crap ton more money having the rock instead of cody Consider yourselves lucky. Cody would have lost at Wrestlemania against roman. Yeah no, Cody is one of the most over babyfaces they've had, he needs the story more than a gassed 52 year old egomaniac

The reality also is Rock looked like he needed an oxygen tank against Punk on PPV in Jan/Feb 2013, He also tore his abdomen as Cena had to carry him home he was that gassed. 11 years ago. The reality also is Reigns has his own issues and needs a capable worker to bump for him & lead the match. Realistically this isn't The Rock. But as Triple S says? Let's see how it plays out I’m not disagreeing with any of this. Rock was a shell of himself even back in 2011-2013. Roman is not great worker either and has always needed someone to carry him through matches, which Rock can’t do at this point. Does the WWE or TKO care? No. They know Rock is one of the biggest action stars in the world and see more $$$ with him over Cody. Is it the right move long-term? Probably not, but that’s not what the share holders care about.

Honestly, it would have made more sense than Vince winning it for a few days. As someone else mentioned, it wouldn’t have been shocking to see him steal the title during the Corproation era, only to have his a** handed to him shortly after. Shane was booked as cowardly and weak, but smart as hell and one of the fastest guys in the ring so it could have worked with the right story.
Could he have won it? Sure. Should he have won it? It wouldn’t have bothered me either way, especially in hindsight when we’ve had plenty of undeserving performers win a world title in recent memory.

It's HHH. He's not going to go to bat for Cody. Why would he? Cody was a loser who went elsewhere and started shoveling shet all over HHH, his reputation, career and his legacy. He started another company with the hopes of chopping down HHH's reign of power and control. He would openly mock HHH on TV and PPVs. And when none of that worked he went crawling back to HHH. Had things worked out for Cody he'd still be in AEW taking those same shots and HHH knows that. If HHH could still wrestle we all know they'd have a Mania match and HHH would have won. That's not an option though now so HHH will just find another way to do what he does. Slipping Rock into Cody's spot and cucking him on live tv sounds very much like something HHH would HAPPILY do to Cody. If HHH wanted to I'm sure he could sit down with TKO executives and lay out the story they've been planning, the ratings bumps, increase in merch sales, increase in ticket sales, videos of fan reactions, social media views etc. and make an easy case for Cody. Financially you can cash ONE payday with The Rock, or have a money printing machine in Cody. But why would HHH do that? If you had the power to back an old coworker who you got along with or an old coworker who trashed you when they were gone and then came back, who would you choose? If you were as vindictive as HHH, who would you choose? You must be living under a rock with Dwayne 😉 Hunter has openly and repeatedly endorsed Cody as their guy to be out there with the fan, making the wishes, and doing the PR. Cody didn’t “crawl” back, much like his counter part Dwayne has now done. Cody was contacted by Vince and Co. so much so that they came to him. Is the rock a quick cash grab and main stream media attention getter, sure. Will those people care to keep up with the week to week after seeing the headline, nope. Roman and Rock are going to be unmerciful boo’ed out of the stadium at Mania. Maybe Roman will get cheers, but Rock pigeon holed himself into the same spot that Randy and Batista were in at WM30. No one wants to see this take precedence over Cody and the culmination of “Finishing the story”. Rock breaks records though, he now holds the esteemed honor of having the most disliked video on WWE socials. You should be use to WM main events with Roman being boo’d out of the building by this point. Won’t be any different than WM32, 33, and 34.

We got that already and it sucked. That's the joke lol. Imagine the awkwardness if they had another one Austin has already admitted that awkwardness was his fault and apologized to him. Mox isn’t a super-social person to begin with and was forced to do it. Austin kept prodding him about his childhood and that clearly is a sore sport for him that he didn’t want to get into publicly. Austin then said Mox needs to be more like him and speak up about booking, and Mox plainly laid it out that it’s not 1997 any more and things don’t work like that.
