Here’s a really long and good article from reader, all about getting your push killed through no fault of your own.
Hey Scott, Bill Chase from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada here. Been a fan since I was 4, I'm now 27. Here's something I put together recently, I hope you enjoy.
Lugered, def:
(1) An invented wrestling term, where someone is hyped up so big for a major title win, and then it doesen't happen derailing momentum to epic amounts of failure.
(2) Derived from wrestler, Lex Luger.
(3) Triple H has "Lugered" more people than anyone.

MICHAEL'S IMPACT REVIEW #13
MARCH 29, 2010
ORLANDO, FLORIDA - THE IMPACT ZONE
- Well, let me give you a quick look on how I received Wrestlemania 26. Of the 9 matches I knew about, I picked 7 correct, only getting Punk and Kofi in the MITB wrong. MizShow vs. Morrison/Truth could have been on the pre-show. Last year's match for the Unified belts would have been well received on pay per view. Orton is on fire. I don't know where they take it from here, unless you want to see Orton and Cena face off for the belt, AGAIN. Money in the Bank kinda left me with a "it was ok" feeling. Swagger could not have been anyone's pick. Triple H and Sheamus literally put me to sleep. Thank God for DVR. Same goes for Rey and Punk. The Bret hart match was about as good as it could go. Unfortunately it looked like DH Smith and Tyson Kidd were laying those shots in pretty hard. Jericho and Edge got my attention the last five minutes of the match. They could have stolen the show if they could have gone longer....BUT...the Diva's tag match was HORRIFIC!!!!!! There is your 15 extra minutes wasted with that horseshit. Seriously, Eddie Guerrero had to be dizzy from spinning in his grave after watching his wife point to the sky before botching her "hog splash". In my opinion, John Cena and Batista stole the show. That's right, I said it. For two guys that aren't very "net friendly" performers, they put on a helluva match, My moment that I will take away with me this year was watching Cena standing with the "We Hate Cena" crowd. I love it. As for the main event, HBK and Taker put on about as good of a match as they could. They couldn't top last year's match unless they were both covered in blood and went about 45 minutes. Interestingly enough, I do believe that this match was the same exact time as the Flair/HBK match from WM24. I could be wrong, but exactly 24 minutes sticks out in my head for some reason. Oh yeah, Impact is on tonight...LET'S CROSS THE LINE!!!

Scott,
A few weeks ago, I started a small project about trying to find a wrestler
to consider as "Mr. Wrestlemania". I wanted to see how wrestlers measured
up against each other over the 25 years. For instance, Hulk Hogan main
evented at 7 Wrestlemanias, but the Undertaker has appeared at more. I saw
that you posted someone's chart of Royal Rumble star power, and thought
that since Wrestlemania is coming up that I'd share my work with you and
the blog posters.
I created a point system and based everything off of Match Results and
they are as follows:

The Netcop Retro Rant for Royal Rumble 1991
- Live from Miami, Florida, bastion of Americana and/or old people.
- Your hosts are Gorilla Monsoon and Roddy Piper.
- This show is, of course, in the thick of the Gulf War and the Sgt. Slaughter storyline, and hence the crowd is in full xenophobic form.

The SmarK Retro Rant for WWF Royal Rumble 1994
- I'm stuck with the Anthology DVD version, which at least has much better video quality than my original VHS dub, so blame that for any inconsistencies with the original review. At least that means the full PPV version and not the Coliseum edit.
- Live from Providence, Rhode Island.
- Your hosts are Vince McMahon & Ted Dibiase. This actually now makes more sense to me given the rotating color commentators on RAW after the departure of Bobby Heenan. Back in the day, it was totally random to me because I only got to watch Superstars.

The SmarK Retro Rant for WWF Survivor Series 1993
So since I'm at that point with Monday Night RAW now and the original rant badly needs a redo, here you are. Plus my theater isn't showing Bragging Rights (can you blame them?) and I don't feel like spending $50 on the HD PPV, so this is what you get from me today instead.
- Live from Boston, MA.
- Your hosts are Vince and for the last time on a WWF PPV, Bobby Heenan.
