every time I hear WWE/F and Invasion in the same sentence it feels like a thousand stings by a warrior wasp my soul is stilly trying to cope with the thrown away potential :(
@@bugsquashinghero891 Yes, and no. I mean "no" because the last thing I wanna see is more of him. Seth is dirty and trashy, but he's a breath of fresh air compared to Roman. I'd rather see my boys rise up to dethrone him and be dirtier and trashier than him. Literally.
I would probably say this with WWE last great year. 2016 was most definitely a huge upgrade from how terrible 2015 was. Sure they were a few low points… - Year 2 of the Roman Reigns Experiment - WrestleMania 32 fell flat - Fin Bálor’s badly timed injury (which forever tainted his push) - Daniel Bryan‘s retirement Everything else was amazing. - The year of AJ Styles - SmackDown Live was relevant again - The Cruiserweight Classic - Amazing feuds (Miz vs Ziggler, Cena vs Styles, Sasha vs Charlotte, Styles vs Ambrose, etc.) - JeriKO were amazing - The Authority finally ended (even though they should’ve ended at Survivor Series 2014) - Amazing matches - The Women’s Division
To add on the list, Good: - NXT(Shinsuke Nakamura, Samoa Joe, DIY, Revival, American Alpha, Enzo and Cass, Asuka) - Heath Slater(no joke) - James Ellsworth(before he became repetitive) - The Brand Split(which was good before they kept doing it) - Tag Team Wrestling(New Day’s legendary title run, DIY, Revival, American Alpha, The Usos, The Bar, Enzo and Cass, Rhyno and Slater) Bad: - Universal Title Design - Underwhelming Dean Ambrose title run - The Wyatt Family doing nothing
Honestly, the 2016 superstar of the year is The Miz in my book. AJ Styles was amazing as champion, and he comes in as a close second, but Miz carried the upper midcard and gave the IC title the prestige it had lost in recent years.
@@edgeisthegoat I never said The Miz was the best wrestler of 2016, I just said it's fair if you think he is. I do think AJ Styles was the best wrestler this year too.
2016 was so awesome, whether it was Bray Wyatt or rejuvenated Smackdown LIVE, the entire AJ styles run, everything related to Jeri-KO, Cena- AJ feud, Danielson as GM, Charlotte-Sasha-Becky triple threat etc etc etc .. it was just so good.
They really need to bring back general managers. I like Adam Pearce, but Smackdown was so good in 2016 with Bryan as the Smackdown GM and Foley/Angle as the RAW GMs. I don't know what it is, but there was something so special about having fan favorite authority figures, and the matches we'd get were quite exciting. The era of Styles and Owens as champions was really fun.
Facts Bro 2016 was awesome The General Manager Concept just Worked plus it was an Amazing Survivor Series especially cause the General Manager thing made it better.Adam Pearce is pretty Bland and but ok.2016 is the year NXT reached its popularity it brought back the Love for Tag Team Wrestling
No, we don’t need general managers or any kind of authority figures onscreen. Wrestling has shown before that the Stone Cold vs. Vince McMahon formula isn’t necessary anymore. Leave that shit in the past.
@@NoxWyatt you sound like a damn What Culture or Wrestle Talk video when you regurgitate the same thing all smarks say when anyone brings up Authority figures in WWE 🤣🤣🤣
Survivor Series 2016 was greatly built, it’s legendary from build up to the show. Only thing that have come close to that is Survivor Series 2019. Survivor Series used to be my favorite ppv but they gotta get rid of it or change the format to make it more interesting. First thing I feel they gotta do is get rid of that raw vs sd angle. It’s only worked in 2005 & 2016
MITB 2016 is one of my all time favourite ppvs. Ambrose cashing in, Cena v AJ.. even had one of my favourite bands doing the theme. Black Honey by Thrice fit so well with this show .. 10/10
Man. I miss the bromance of Jericho and Owens. To this day, I believe that Jericho Owens should have main evented WrestleMania for the Universal Title. But I guess, where there is money, there is big matches.
Finally met someone who had exactly the same experience as I did back in 2016 (I was 14). Smackdown live 2016 was soo great, I too didn't pay attention to nxt.
WWE in 2016 was like WWE in 2000. Everything about that year was awesome if not close to perfect. Minus that one bad blemish that that year's WrestleMania.
I tend to think of WWE in terms of Wrestlemania to Wrestlemania rather than calendar years. Having said that, the time period from WM 32 to WM 33 is fondly remembered. Miz's IC title run, the meteoric rise of Braun Strowmann, the growing legitimacy of the women's division, THE ROOKIE YEAR OF AJ STYLES with his great programs (With Cena of course, but I think his program with Roman was underrated), KO and Jericho, the List of Jericho, Enzo & Cass before it went tits up, Goldberg's return before he overstayed his welcome post-WM 33, the first year of SmackDown Live in general, the Usos transforming from nobodies into a great team, and probably like a dozen other things I'm forgetting. Great memories.
2016 was one of my favorite years for WWE. I got the Network for Styles vs Cena. The cruiserweight classic. NXT. The brand split. Talking Smack. 2016 Men's Survivor Series match is my favorite SS match of all time. It all just clicked for me. 2016 was also the first year I started watching New Japan. Great year.
This video is bringing back a lot of nostalgia since 2016 was when I watched wwe the most. Everything about that year was nostalgic, wwe was good, tna was still tna, broken hardys, omega and the young bucks was still in bullet club and bullet club was still popular, the adpocalypse never happened yet, and filthy frank and leafy were still making videos.
The promo between Ambrose and Cena always stood out to me as one of the rare promo that Cena completely sold instead of doing the "Fine speech." _rubs bald spot_ routine
The build up to Survivor series in 2016 and 19 were really great. 2016 gave us a lot of good matches and promos were really good on Raw/SD/Talking Smack. And also, NXT and Cruiserweight bought back the pure wrestling matches that were missing from years.
2016 was such a wild time. While the first half was ok to mediocre, the second half was just legendary stuff. Lots of new faces to the company, like AJ Styles, the return of the brand split, the roster was stacked, both Raw and SmackDown were equally entertaining, NXT was still legendary stuff, every PPV of the second half was great, and so much more. 2016 as a whole was a great year. I wish I can go back to it, good times.😌
Smackdown Live was so fun back in 2016. Raw seemed old and stodgy, while SDL was new and fresh. It was the same on Smackdown when Paul Heyman booked the show, in the early years of this century.
16:25 THE NOSTALGIA!!! I used to play this song on repeat when it was announced as the theme for Battleground just because of how great of a song it was.
I remember watching my very first full episode of RAW in the summer of 2016. Must've been mid July. It was simply incredible. I decided to start following the WWE loyaly since then despite watching random matches since 2013. And that's one of the best decisions I've ever made. I watched SD Live the next day. I absolutely fell for the product, and admitedly I got my new WWE crush through SD Live in Alexa Bliss. I kinda still have a crush on the Goddess ngl. I remember how over the List of Jericho was. Watching it back today I'm impressed with how the former Y2J got a pen and a wooden board over. I didn't buy WWE 2K17 bc I had bought FIFA 17 that year but I got both versions of those two games the next year. WWE in 2016, at least in my opinion, just hit different
No he had a lot of problems like the fact that wwe focused on Jericho and the list more than the actual universal champion and he was feuding with seth and Roman at every ppv and the only ppv title defense that wasn't against one of them ended up being his last so yeah it was fun but nothing amazing
2016 was absolutely one of the best years in WWE in a LONG time, brother got into it again then out of it till Cody this last year or so , but yea 2016 the draft and 2 shows being run separately with separate ppvs, etc. they were doing different things and trying different creative routes, things felt fresh, a lot of great talent, nxt at a peak, then 2017 happened and it was a wrap ....man ya had funny breezdango segments and slater I have kids stuff and the glorious roode stuff, and Ambrose and Becky as champs, on raw you had lol and Jericho , sami there, Braun doing monster shit, miz ic title run, but in general smackdown live was AWESOME, it was quick in and out comedy, action, we out, then vince said oh everyone's having fun? Cut that shit back , bring roman and Brock back into the picture and screw the roster split.....pal!......btw also lead to bryans in ring return, crazy fun year
I love the Women’s Revolution :) “We’re fighting against how the women are being treated!” WWE: “YEAH HELL YEAH LETS DO THIS!” “But aren’t you the ones that are treating us like this?💀”
2016 was special. Aj’s run didn’t disappoint, nxt was on fire. 1998 goldberg returning. i should have enjoyed dean’s reign but it was only decent and it was the right call they gave the title to aj, finally wwe doing something right for talents that came over from other promotions. hell tna got the broken hardys and la knight was starting to talk.
Bizzarely i aprreciate wwe in 2015 a lot as well the main roster being mediocre but NXT being good felt like waiting to open a christams present and 2016 being christmas day, soo many of the stars of nxt that I'd watched in NXT being brought up to the main roster, It felt like a start of a new era
2017 wasn’t good at all: - Kevin Owens dropping the universal title to Goldberg - failed MITB cash in - jinder mahal title reign - bray Wyatt lackluster title reign
Wow in hindsight 2016 was amazing compared to what we got after that. Should’ve enjoyed that time more in the moment. But cheers, WWE is fun to watch now again under Triple H.
2k16 was one of the most amazing year of my life I was just a 12 years old in 6th class but I watched every episode of wwe raw and smack down as well as every paper view matches that same year and enjoy it so much I never forget it bro.
As i’m sure it was for many , 2016 was the year that got me back into WWE cause of how good it was. I’m a ruthless aggression child born in 2000 and stopped watching after CM punk left in later 2013, when 2016 brand split happened It brought so much intrigue back.
Can't wait to watch this full video but I can confidently say it was all downhill from here. 2016 was probably the last full year where I watched nearly everything the WWE put out.
SmackDown in 2016 was really good, AJ Styles vs John Cena, AJ Styles vs Dean Ambrose, The Miz vs Dolph Ziggler etc. All of the talents shined. But it wasn't a great year either imo, Raw was really Bad especially after the draft, The Raw tag team championship feuds were a disaster, the Intercontinental champion was...forgettable, Kevin Owens was a pretty weak champion who was overshadowed by Chris Jericho and has feuded with two unconvinceable babyfaces at the moment : Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, Charlotte Flair vs Sasha Banks was good but overdone as hell and don't get me started on Titus O'Neil vs Darren Young lmao. But overall, 2016 was a decent year.
2016 Smackdown just after the draft was amazing Best roster in both men’s and women’s Only lasted a while To me in ended when Ambrose, Mickie James and Alexa Bliss got drafted to Raw
I will argue that 2016 was a huge improvement for WWE and was better than any year between 2003-2015. If Brock Lesnar and the Roman Reigns push wasn't so obvious, then it would have been even better
2016 was Aj styles year The face that runs the place The mega push for AJ styles was all worth it It was just phenomenal... Basically WWE in the year 2016 was the year that Aj styles built ❣️ Hat's off to the phenomenal one
Or don't downgrade it, besides elimination chamber and the royal rumble, WWE has been delivering in PLEs. AEW has had one of the best storylines in wrestling in a long time, Punk and MJF. Forbidden Door, WrestleMania 38, Hell in a Cell, SummerSlam and Revolution. Vince retires; and his water-spitting, stoic son in law, gains the absolute advantage in the handling of WWE booking. Gives faith to WWE fans and to those that have lapsed with a broken dream. So he says to the old regime, " out of time, so say goodbye" and gives second chances to those who were, unceremoniously divorced from the once heaven for wrestling paradise without. That's Wrestling in 2022 so far
They need to bring back invasion storylines for Survivor Series. The 2016 build up for Survivor Series was fantastic.

Can't wait to watch this full video but I can confidently say it was all downhill from here.
2016 was probably the last full year where I watched nearly everything the WWE put out.
2014 2016 & 2017 were decent years for wwe, aint no attitude era but still fun
Seeing the album “Starboy” made my day
2016 was undoubtably the greatest year since 2009!! Except Goldberg return crap
2016 was amazing the best year of WWE in the 2010s I remember how fun it was with the brand split and all the fueds they had at the time. I miss it.
YOU JUST MADE THE LIST
"Man, SmackDown was really into fisting". 🤣
Daniel Bryan always sus😂
SmackDown in 2016 was really good, AJ Styles vs John Cena, AJ Styles vs Dean Ambrose, The Miz vs Dolph Ziggler etc. All of the talents shined. But it wasn't a great year either imo, Raw was really Bad especially after the draft, The Raw tag team championship feuds were a disaster, the Intercontinental champion was...forgettable, Kevin Owens was a pretty weak champion who was overshadowed by Chris Jericho and has feuded with two unconvinceable babyfaces at the moment : Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, Charlotte Flair vs Sasha Banks was good but overdone as hell and don't get me started on Titus O'Neil vs Darren Young lmao.
But overall, 2016 was a decent year.
2016 Smackdown just after the draft was amazing
Best roster in both men’s and women’s
Only lasted a while
To me in ended when Ambrose, Mickie James and Alexa Bliss got drafted to Raw
I will argue that 2016 was a huge improvement for WWE and was better than any year between 2003-2015. If Brock Lesnar and the Roman Reigns push wasn't so obvious, then it would have been even better
Amazing video can you do royal rumble 2022 rebooking?
WWE 2016 IS THE BEST ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The year I started watching wrestling again
This just me my favorite ppv of 2016 mitb
2016 was Aj styles year
The face that runs the place
The mega push for AJ styles was all worth it
It was just phenomenal...
Basically WWE in the year 2016 was the year that Aj styles built ❣️
Hat's off to the phenomenal one
2016 was the best year ever
the dean/moxley cash is my favorite moment in WWE history
And now were ganna talk about how great 2022 was well at least a Mid year, when HHH era started
Or don't downgrade it, besides elimination chamber and the royal rumble, WWE has been delivering in PLEs. AEW has had one of the best storylines in wrestling in a long time, Punk and MJF. Forbidden Door, WrestleMania 38, Hell in a Cell, SummerSlam and Revolution. Vince retires; and his water-spitting, stoic son in law, gains the absolute advantage in the handling of WWE booking. Gives faith to WWE fans and to those that have lapsed with a broken dream. So he says to the old regime, " out of time, so say goodbye" and gives second chances to those who were, unceremoniously divorced from the once heaven for wrestling paradise without.
That's Wrestling in 2022 so far
My most fav is still 2014_15 since 2010
Expecially Brocks Title Reign was a amazing
