      Baron Corbin is not the reason for the low tv ratings their tv ratings was down over 2 decades since the 2000s Ruthless aggression had a terrible product why they had low ratings and blackout their areas during the Ruthless aggression in that era they had very low attendances like now I went to a raw event in 2005 they blackout me there

    One of my favorites was during a John Cena promo where he said some fans wanted him to learn new moves, maybe even a "heel turn" as he turned on the heel of his foot in the ring. He then said that will NEVER HAPPEN because of all the Make A Wish kids who chose to see him in their last days. As much as I didn't like him before, I respect him SO MUCH for this. Even if it's part of his act, it was real to the HUNDREDS of kids that he met and made life better for, even if just for a day!

      It's not just children who get cancer though.
      I lost a brother to cancer. He was 42. What wish did he get? There are mothers and fathers who have cancer, who will never get to see their children grow up.
      Cancer is terrible, no matter what age you get it. It is never good.
      It is great that children get wishes fulfilled. I am not taking away from them for one moment. But I sometimes feel older people suffer in silence.
      My brother wasn't a child, but he was still too young to die. He had just bought a house (which I shared with him) and was in a good place in. His life. We were best mates as well as brothers. I miss him.
      I also lost my father to a heart attack, which I believe was partly due to grief and being "broken-hearted", since he never got over outliving his son. You can still lose a child to cancer, no matter what age they are.

So they put together something quickly. Unfortunate the details came out the following Tuesday morning after the show. I don't fault the wwe on this one. They thought of everyone who loved and cared for them, then the crushing facts came out and needed to address that and I think vince did the best he could with all the emotions he also was also going through. From losing a friend, and amazing talent, probably dealing with backstage talent that loved Chris and his wife and son and consoling them during another tough time.

    Some extra nuggets about Paul Heyman addressing what happened with CM Punk. 1. They were in Chicago and they knew the fans planned to take over the show with CM Punk chants. 2. Everything Paul said was his own work, there was little preparation to this segment. 3. He spun that crowd so freaking expertly he managed to save the whole damn show that night and, as mentioned in the video, started the hype behind Taker vs Lesner.

She got a decent Smackdown Women's title reign, a better Women's Tag Title reign, was even a double champion very briefly holding all the main roster Women's gold along with Bayley and then when she dropped the Smackdown Women's title to Bianca Belair, she left again.

And learning of a death of a beloved guy that the fans loved and even guys in the back. It was all emotions. It wasn't until the following morning when the details came out. Which had to hurt even more, knowing a person you've been working with, Got to know and love did something like that.

      The worst thing about the Austin walkout was that he was about set to have programs with Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit, who were moved from Smackdown to RAW specifically because Austin hand-picked them, as one was his complaints was that he was sick of fighting the same guys, and was wanted "new blood" to have matches against
      So Guerrero and Benoit change brands, only for the matches to not happen, because Austin walked out.
      Those matches could have fast-tracked Eddie and Chris's push in WWE sooner, and then they wouldn't have had to bulk up on steroids to be taken seriously as main eventers (which ultimately lead to tragedy in both cases).
