10 Times WWE IGNORED The Fans (... And Got It Right!)

[@GoramYako]

Disagre with number 10 Not a 30 min match , but cmon! A 10 min match Taker vs Cena should be fantastic

[@mxkrvgr]

It was also WAY too late in their careers for them to wrestle at a Wrestlemania. It should’ve went down years prior.

[@LeMelleKH2]

WWE didnt get it right with Stardust. That was a reach to pull that Butterfly effect, like WWE planned the American Nightmare gimmick through keeping him as Stardust. They still got it wrong with Stardust, Cody Rhodes rose above that despite.

[@azrael_ao1]

I just clicked on the video, but if that's the revisionist history s*** their tryna pull after worshipping the ground He walked on for 3 years, then I'm about to unsubscribe from them AGAIN. I gave them a second chance mainly because of Simon.

[@CptMoralSupport]

Yeah. Sometimes these channels fumble

[@Jwjmcc]

Stardust with goldust short term worked,wasn’t as bad as was made out

[@jaredwilliams4998]

if they had dropped Stardust and given Jericho the respect he deserved over Goldberg, AEW wouldn't exist. Biggest fumble in the history of wrestling IMHO.

[@greatnessdelton1381]

Your precious AEW wouldn't exist without that "mistake" you claim they made. And I agree, AEW is a mistake.

[@Wavezumo]

Matt gets cheated on, fired, then rehired just to lose the feud to Edge and Edge becomes an 11 time world champion. Crazy when you think about it

[@alvinwhite94]

So triple h wanted to fire edge because he was having a affair with lita but didn’t chyna and him break up cause he started seeing Stephanie 🤔

[@thefuturist8864]

What about Rollins turning on The Shield? That’s definitely a contender for #1

[@ShaunInce123]

I always held the belief that Daniel Bryan would have retired much earlier, had he won the Rumble & had the Brock match in 2015. Also him being injured the year prior during his championship run in 2014 probably convinced them to not have him win in 2015.

Shut up, Mark

[@mdeproductions2132]

hopeful this is the same with LA Knight not winning MITB as HHH responded to this conversation LA was a clear favorite but good things happen to those who wait, hope he is the one to dethrone roman it looks like it is coming soon

[@zanethind]

Tbh if Taker trained for a 30 minute war then I would've loved to see that between him and John

[@MichaelTaylor-qp2xf]

Your description of Logan Paul's presentation makes me think that he's being booked by Paul Heyman in accentuating his strengths while hiding the negatives. That's classic ECW booking.

[@Unitenotfight]

Yea, as opposed to the 72,985 times they got it wrong.

[@TheRuns2]

That makes finding ones they got right more impressive for WhatCulture. Even though a couple of these were still wrong.

[@AcoylteKraven82]

The other comment was already way too long so I’ll add this. I stopped watching for a very long time. I really don’t remember the last PPV I watched live but I didn’t come back until last year. I won’t go into all the details of why/how I got back into it but the short version is because my daughter wanted to watch it and she got into it so much that it made me get back into it. And the match that she wanted to watch was Becky Lynch. Oh it was good! And I was very happy to see actual wrestlers in the women’s wrestling division! If you know you know. And if not I don’t really suggest looking back at it! But the only Undertaker match out of the last 5 or 6 of them I watched so far was the graveyard or boneyard match and……….. yeah! And if what you’re saying is right and it was “the best” out of the last whatever number you said then wow! That’s very disappointing!!! But I rarely agree with the masses anyways so I might just like one or more of them. I guess only time will tell!

[@money5noodles]

That was a smart move with the undertaker it give him extra push to wrestle more go out with a bang

[@IgnoresTrolls]

Bryan not winning in 2015 was right. Bryan being eliminated from the match turning the crowd on the winner, Bryan putting over Reigns, in fact all of both those mens booking except for the Seth cash in was terrible through that whole period.

He's OLD AF, though for basically a rookie on the main roster. I sincerely doubt he'll still A) be wrestling in five years and B) at a main-event level. For context, Stone Cold, the wrestler who people compare LA Knight to, retired at 38. Knight will be 41 in a few months.

This WrestleMania

[@AcoylteKraven82]

Proven correct?!? Um, if you say so! If you go back to “everything” that was going on and what everyone was saying, expecting and hoping around each one of these I bet there were many better options that could have happened! But yes, if WWE says hey this guy is your good guy and the fans say um no! WWE turns around puts a hat on him and says the same thing and all the fans are like oh this is a different guy we love him! It was very exhausting to be a fan mainly in the 90s and early 2000s for me! And others but honestly either they don’t watch anything wrestling anymore so they obviously can’t agree with something they will never see or they will lie and say I’m full of it. But also attack me over it because they know exactly what and how that makes them look! And the more they attack and harder they go just shows how right I am because their obviously are mad at the truth! But you can’t attack that

[@stevegallo8483]

The fans didn't see much in the Rocky Maivia character, because he was being pushed as a vanilla babyface who didn't connect with the fans. It was only when they turned him heel and allowed him to show some personality that he connected with fans.

[@greatnessdelton1381]

When fans are chanting "Die Rocky Die", it's more than just the character they didn't like.

[@azrael_ao1]

I don't necessarily think WWE got it right with the Undertaker versus John Cena. To me it just showed they had no faith in Undertaker to not let him go for their at least 20 minutes like he said he could. And the doubts would have never existed had WWE not put Roman Reigns in there the year prior and expected him to be the ring general and carry Undertaker to a good match. Because at that point, Roman was nowhere near ready to be a ring general and call spots 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@ceulgai2817]

"It turned out alright in the end, therefore they got it right." No, no, that's not how it works. Getting dumb luck isn't the same as doing the right thing.

Paul not good they put him with ppl who could carry him.

[@brandonnewby178]

I argue with number nine that Stone Cold would have worked just as well.

[@greatnessdelton1381]

Canada didn't hate him, they hated the Rock. Say whatever you want, but Stone Cold's worst time in his career was being a heel, while the Rock became who he was as a heel.

It's hard to say that the WWE was "right" about how they broke up the Shield, when they squandered Ambrose/Moxley afterwards. They left money on the table and pissed fans off. All three are absolutely amazing, but seeing Moxley becoming arguably one of the buggest draws of AEW has got to sting, when they could have done so mucb better by him and the fans.
