I thought 08 was one of thee best years the WWE had in the “PG Era (08-20).” The RR was a classic show , No Way Out was a great B show , Wrestlemania 24 is imo a top 10 Mania , & Summerslam was very good . Edge v Rey / Edge v Taker were two great feuds on smack down , HBK & Y2J was feud of the year , and even Cena & Orton was prime at that point. I personally thought 08 was a very good year for WWE .

Honky Tonk Man vs. Santino had to be a screwy joke match because it was the best way to do the match. Honky's whole gimmick was being an irritating coward who held the IC title hostage by exploiting DQ's & Countouts, then you have the fact he was older and couldn't go very long without showing his limitations so having him get screwed protected him while also doing the idea of being cowardly heels justice

If the Elimination Chamber has proven anything, Beth was in the right place at the worst time. A wrestler of her caliber could've instrumental in getting women's wrestling back to prominence. Sadly, she was around during the "I'm a perverted old man" phase of Vince's life. Hearing Adam comment about how all six men commented on the women themselves and not the wrestler pretty much told the story. Coincidentally, this is was at the time I effectively tuned out of watching the WWE. It was so rubbish that it wasn't worth it anymore.

Sometimes I feel we drag Cena way more than he deserves, especially to satisfy the marks. But literally 2008 was a year in which he wasn't even in the main event spot and y'all are still bitching?

Otherwise he was nowhere near as present in the main event scene
