A Look Back at WWE Unforgiven 2006

[@WrestlinGifs]

I haven’t done a PPV retrospective like this in a LONG time. So I had to take it back to the old Pav. Hope you all enjoyed this. Took forever to make but I’m super proud of it❤️ What was the PPV that raised you?

Good stuff man.Paid for, and taped this PPV. It's was loaded with talent. Love seeing DX come back for the next generation....no pun intended 😂😂 .The PPV that raised me was Wrestlemania 17!!

[@redbullbrown9]

Wrestlemania 30 raised me

[@AndersonTenecela]

In one PPV we had a retirement match, a Hell in a Cell match, and a TLC match, one of the most stacked cards you will see in a normal WWE PPV. Like this is the type of match card you would see at a Wrestlemania

Unforgiven 2006 was an classic ppv full of memorable moments such as Cena vs Edge in TLC, Trish's emotional sendoff, Orton's crazy RKO outta nowhere and DX vs McMahon and Big Show in HIAC

[@thetruej7872]

For real man. Unforgiven 2006 was a really good PPV. I hope they bring back Unforgiven.

[@mbeas9612]

@thetruej7872 Agree man. This was during when Cena, Edge and Orton were WWE's top dogs(alongside Batista)at their peak while DX vs McMahon was entertaining and Trish and Lita were WWE's top women at the end of their peak

[@richborn6700]

I thought Jeff was dead. *Sees him in TNA* Oh he's alive!?! *Leaves TNA* Huh he must have died again. Matt must have been out there gathering the damn Dragonballs

[@alec2000]

Yo! Undoubtedly the BEST Unforgiven event ever. I mean where do we even begin? TLC and Hell in a Cell on the same night, which is impossible nowadays, we got Trish Stratus’s last match at the time, and it was amazing, Carlito Vs Randy Orton was incredible, DX Vs the McMahons was insane, and need we say more about the legendary feud of Edge and John Cena. I swear this night had it all, and for a brand exclusive show, it felt massive, and that’s why Ruthless Aggression will forever be special. Thank you for massive nostalgia of my childhood, Pav. You truly rule!😁🤘

R.I.P BRAY WYATT

[@ix-badsport-xix7433]

Trish’s fairly tale like retirement here will never not be emotional. Arguably the greatest women’s wrestler who came in with no experience or prior indy cred and despite being a former Muscle Mag model didn’t use that and her looks to coast by. She actually wanted to learn and take the time to improve her craft and that she did. Went from being a valet for Test and Albert to being the underdog and eventually capturing the women’s title a record 7 times which was unheard of at the time. Not to mention, 3 time babe of the year, Diva of the decade, and was a mainstream celebrity that everyone around the world recognized. Her 2004-2005 heel run will forever be iconic and it’s still takes about to this day, he’ll just about everything from her run is spoken about because she’s the undisputed goat. There’s a good reason WWE named her to be number 1 on their top 50 greatest modern of all time women wrestlers. We literally saw her grown in front of us and it was such an emotional send off that one of the all time greats at the time was hanging up the boots. Obviously almost 20 years later she came back for another run, but regardless her 2006 retirement will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you Trish for always putting entertainment first for the fans, as Jim Ross said; “there was never anyone any better” ❤🐐🫶🏼

[@hhtptai]

Extremely crazy when you realize that DX vs. The McMahons and Big Show was the last true Hell in a Cell match in the Ruthless Aggression era.

[@guess6635]

Yup. Was a 10 year old kid getting back to school... Pluto was no longer a planet so that sucked, starting 5th Grade up in Winnipeg watching Raw regularly along with Smackdown. From Carlito and the infamous RKO that night, to Umaga and Kane, the theee matches I remember clearly was DX putting an end to there near year long feud with the McMahon's and Big Show involved. (Fun fact how the eldest daughter to HHH and Stephanie was litterally born during this feud in 2006 and an episode was dedicated to all of them besides HBK being gone.. and that same newborn is now a Senior in High School about to graduate I'd imagine..time. Was a very bloody Hell in the Cell like it was known for and no match currently in the company has the same amount of violence and brutality to it. Trish final mstch as a full time at least back then was a big deal especially to us Canadians haha. Her leaving adter einning the women's title one last time from her biggest rival was truly a highlight back then, funny hoe people usually overlook the fact that both Trish and Lita left the company within the same Year very close to one another similar to how both Rock and Austin left. A Rivalry which many my age remember seeing nearly from the beginning in 2000 to the final confrontation in 2006. And of course, the Match you never competed in, the match I never Lost, TLC in his hometown. It was a match I was nervous since seeing Cena winning a TLC match ahainst Edge didnt seem normal.. was completely behind him but was being realistic and still was in Kayfabe 24/7. That match.. was truly one of the top 100 greatest matches in rhe history of the company and I'm not exaggerating. The build up, Rivalry, atmosphere, stars, action and one of the best finishes as well. Cena finally getting the.. Edge on Edge at least temporarily wss a great feeling when I tuned in the next night on Raw. One PPV from basically.. 17 years ago... my goodness, can get that type of feeling from myself. The fact we had both a Hell in the Cell and TLC match on the same show and night when they weren't yearly attractions really shows just how cool and fun Wrestling overall was wven back then when it was no longer at it's peak. Unforgiven 2006. A fun enjoyable show which I haven't forgotten.

That FU off the ladder through stacked tables is straight from the WWE games, pretty sure this was the only time a move done off a ladder was done through stacked tables as well (other than when they push the ladder over but that isn't when they are both are on the top)

R.I.P. Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt 😢

[@hubertplushandstuff2687]

Rest in peace Bray Wyatt

[@devilkid292]

This is literally my favorite ppv ever. Specifically because of the hell in a cell match, which I consider one of the top 3 hell in a cells ever and jeff hardy who was my hero when I was 11. But DX I was obsessed with and that hell in a cell was so hardcore and brutal. I fucking loved when triple h shoved a screw driver in McMahon head and then broke the sledgehammer over his fucking head. It was INSANE. Nothing compares to this nowadays. It was the end of an Era for me. I stopped watching when they went PG just hoping for another PPV like unforgiven

It’s been 17 years and I’m still pissed that I didn’t get to go to unforgiven as a kid there was a tlc match and a hell in a cell match on the same night but I was 10 at the time and I had school the next day but hey my mom still ordered it on ppv and 13 years I redeemed myself by attending nxt takeover Toronto in 2019 and very recently I attended smackdown and it was awesome. though smackdown was another show I almost didn’t attend because my mom was/is broke but thankfully we pulled it out by the skin of our teeth I missed raw last year because I was in no condition to go because I had a blood sugar spike and got type 2 diabetes so after being on a 7 month diet I had a much better summer and I went to smackdown I really wish they would bring another ppv to Toronto hell it’s been 21 years since wrestlemania took place in Toronto please do that even though tickets would be bought super fast because they were with summerslam in 2019

[@claytonphillips85]

I would have liked to see John Cena on Smackdown during 2006

[@Matt-cr4vv]

What’s funny looking back at this PPV I was a huge Cena kid and I hated edge so much. One of the funny things now when I look back is that the prior PPV was summer slam where edge screwed Cens over. I was convinced as a kid that Cena would win because if edge got DQd he’d lose the title but still win. But what’s also funny looking back is that Cena lost at SS, which was seen as his hometown. Then the next month edge loses when the match is in his hometown. So looking back now it makes me chuckle considering that for whatever reason they booked both guys to lose in their hometowns in back to back shows. So it was funny because the fans in Boston were pissed when edge and then when Cena won it back finally it was in the only places where the universally hated edge was cheered since it was his hometown and so fans weren’t happy to see Cena win.

[@DrooMighty]

Wrestling fans your age really were the last kids to experience the brutal and over the top carnage that was the Attitude and Ruthless Aggression eras. I'm ten years older than you and the genuine enthusiasm in your Ruthless Aggression videos is exactly how I feel about what made wrestling magical in my own childhood, right down to being glad you don't have to watch a wrestler you like on the garbage other show of the era lmao
