Wrestling Thread (WWE, AEW, etc)

Correction, Ziegler didnt blow the save but did give up the lead when it was tied in the 9th.

f**king wrong thread again...

As for Foley, I read a while ago that WWE blocked Foley once from going to TNA, guess they won't or can't this time around.

Flair also was released from his contract with the WWE, but doubt he'll go to TNA like so many former WWE stars who left the company over the past handful of seasons. Good luck to Foley though, one of the main reasons why there was an attitude era in the WWE.

Personally, I think if Foley didn't get thrown off that Hell in a Cell, the Attitude Era as we know it may have been completely different.

Well Mankind had been in WWF for a while before the infamous Hell in a Cell match, but he was always basically a midcarder. However, after that match the buzz around Foley grew exponentially, and if you recall the key moment where momentum switched in the Monday Night War was when during Nitro's 'finger poke of doom' episode (in which they advertised Nash v. Goldberg as the main even but instead had Nash lie down to Hogan, giving up the World Title while Goldberg was 'arrested') they announced on WCW that Foley was gonna win the WWF title on Raw (which was taped at the time). If not for the Hell in a Cell, Foley may not have been pushed to begin with, and if so he wouldn't have won the world title.

So yea, there's my theory . It's got some potential holes in it but at the very least it's food for thought.

Undertaker sent Edge straight to hell!
