    Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread

    Been watching some classic SS matchups.

    HBK vs Razor ladder match, nowhere near the level of the WM match. HBK had a bad night all around, almost broke his leg multiple times and botched the ending. If his opponent was anyone but Razor in that match, you'd probably never see that guy in the company again. Crazy to think just a short while after, HBK would get legit beat up and hurt. And obviously Razor heads to WCW in less than a year.

    Taker vs Mankind boiler room brawl. I actually didn't think this match was as good as people say. Although the ending was obviously great. Those technical difficulties were brutal. Fans were gonna riot with all those interruptions throughout.

      Wasn't perfect like the WM10 ladder match, but there were a ton of cool moments. And one of my favorite punches ever when HBK did the baseball slide out of the ring and Razer nailed him. Hall was one of the best ever at throwing punches, and no one sold like Shawn.

          Didn't Vince tell them that they couldn't use the ladder as a weapon for the SS match?

            Watched the WWE Untold about Bayley vs Sasha from Takeover Brooklyn last night. It's a must watch, they show clips of them in promo school and seeing where they are now is absolutely amazing. I do wonder when they did interviews for this because Charlotte nor Becky are in the special outside of the curtain call moment.

            Also WWE Timeline came on after this featuring AJ vs John Cena. They snubbed the hell out of Enzo & Cass during that. They showed them but just calling them superstars who were standing alongside Cena lol.

                  I’ve always wondered if it was because he wanted the match to be different or if he just didn’t want weapons used.

                  Either way it’s still a good match.

                        I vote the latter. It's 1995 and Shawn is the babyface for kids and teens (sponsored by Stridex). Bret Hart is wrestling a dentist, Sparky Plugg is running around, etc. Supposedly the house show matches leading up to the WM10 match were way different and arguably better, so I'm sure they could have made this one unique without sacrificing using the ladder like that.

                            Let’s also not forget it was a thrown together match too.

                              Vince's reaction on commentary when Razor brought out a 2nd ladder was like "RAZOR IS BRINGING OUT ANOTHER LADDER. THIS IS THE STANDBY LADDER. 2 LADDERS, THIS IS UNHEARD OF!"

                                Still watching SS shows this week.

                                Caught SS92. The main event was cool, ending felt like a WM ending. Bret in RA era would've been so good if he could've faced Angle, Benoit, Eddie, Jericho and others. Watching his old stuff, crazy to think that about a guy who was already the face of the company and one of their top guys of all time.

                                Macho Man vs Warrior with the story that Flair/Perfect were gonna align with one of the 2 men was another cool story too.
