    In WWE 12 Michael Cole has a random commentary line that stuck with Barrett until the move to PS4 and Xbox one that was something like “Wade Barrett’s only motivation is the almighty dollar.”💀

    33:36 - The comment he made that led to his firing was "TITUS O'NEIL IS LIKE KOBE BRYANT IN A COLORADO HOTEL ROOM! HE IS UNSTOPPABLE!". Brian Jossie (Washington) claims that he was actually terminated because he used a company account to promote something related to Linda McMahon's 2012 Senate campaign (despite the company directing talent not to use their WWE-affiliated/kayfabed accounts to promote anything related to her).

      Its the same reason why if a wrestling company have a bad rut for a while, they will just continue on, because they think hopefully and eventually they will get out of it.
      Its probably the same mindset of someone like Roman has. Was hated despite being babyface but hey someday it will get better so just put your head down and work towards it.

    Aren’t the 4 people that aren’t acknowledged in ECW’s championship history all champions when it was Eastern Championship Wrestling and decidedly part of NWA? Sandman also won the Eastern Championship Wrestling title. If so, then WWE doesn’t have the intellectual property rights to mention those reigns; NWA still owns that.

    WWECW wasnt ECW. But i enjoyed watching the show every week moreso than Raw or Smackdown. I liked how we saw people we usually didnt see. Plus it seemed like people got more time to wrestle. I hated the Hubcap title & hated how EJ won the title on the final night. I liked EJ but would have preferred Christian end as champion because he was awesome on the show.

    • @iiTsFaded_
      @iiTsFaded_ 6 місяців тому +1

      I feel the reason why they had Ezekiel Jackson take the title was because Christian immediately transitioned into being a pro on NXT. So if he was preoccupied with that and wasn’t defending the title much on Monday night Raw, I can see why they would take the title off him.
