With Brock Lesnar "breaking" CM Punks record even though it's not the same title no matter how wwe spins it, what are some other past examples of WWE's pettiness towards a prior talent
Quick ones I can think of is Nikki Bella breaking AJs record, New Day breaking Demolitons record, and Randy Orton being pushed to the moon just to become the youngest world champ after Brock left. Any others?

No, because it was established before WWE rented the arena that the game, if the series reached that point, would take place at that venue. It was an error on the part of management, but the Nuggets did claim it first.

DizzyTechno posted...HotshotDougB posted...show hidden quote(s) There was a decent amount of parodies on both sides, however. But most of these are circumstantial, at best. Like we've no idea the reasons behind Lesnar's reign length but people have convinced themselves WWE have some kind of hate boner for CM Punk so the only reason they must have booked a 440+ was to beat Punk's 6th place placing in the longest reigns table. There's been a few like this, remember they 'had' New Day beat Demolition's record because one of them was involved in that class action lawsuit. Like if you asked Vince, would he have any idea who the longest reigning tag team champions even were? The Denver Nuggets thing as well, maybe they thought 'lol what a situation, let's do something about it on air, make light of it all and make fun of ourselves a little bit too, people will find it funny.' Nope. People will hold it against you 10 years later

New Day breaking Demolitons record
So what are you saying? No record should ever be broken? Were the WWF being petty when they gave Demolition that record over the last champions? I get it. Vince feels that he portrayed his company in a negative light by using illegal substances. I guess my issue is that a) Vince already knew he was a weed head. b) He knows half the locker room gets high as admitted by several wrestlers And c) drugs are bad but steroids are okay? I guess it's the singling him out part that doesn't sit right with me. Wasn't the problem more the he was arrested by the police? I agree complaining about a known druggie doing drugs is idiotic (I never would have pushed him to begin with) but Vince seems more of the "do what you want, just don't get caught" type.

I agree somewhat. I don't think Brock was originally going to beat the record since it seems he was originally going to lose it earlier (but plans changed) and now it's probablty a happy coincidence for them.
Nikki Bella and AJ I could definately see since they seemed to drag her title reign out completely unneccessary just for her to get the record and then dropped it right afterwards.I love to watch you cry

There was no need make a point of showing him in the first place but obviously they weren't going to be able to resist passing it up but just came across so gleeful by showing him like this was some sort of victory over WWE or something.

I don't think they're doing this all just because it's "best for business". Brock would draw with or WITHOUT the belt. He doesn't need it. I think they just booked him with it long enough that they just decided "lets let him keep it".
It certainly doesn't make much sense from a booking standpoint. He could have dropped it to Roman by now, and even the smarkiest smark would get it. Marks don't want Brock to have it.

He doesn't want to admit that every NJPW wrestler dreams of working for Vince McMahon."Not only is Andre way smarter than you, he's also way smarter than you think you are." - SaikyoStyle(edited 1 day ago)Kota Ibushi literally didn't know who Vince McMahon was when they met.ironic love for yoshi tatsuIf you think I care about ROH getting fucked over then lol ROH is the only promotion worse than WWE. I just want to point out how dumb you'd have to be not to see that WWE were deliberately fucking them over. Like, I'm talking I would be worried to leave you with anything sharper than a spoon dumb.https://imgur.com/mZ99iDE

It's not the fact that they booked him fullstop, but that they literally only did it so ROH couldn't book him that weekend, based seemingly on ROH releasing a figurine, despite the fact that WWE have never shown any interest in booking him before then.
Yeah yeah, tell me where did you buy your tinfoil hat?
You can't actually refute my point so you've taken to insults, how adult of you.Brotherhood. Peace. Unity.
In the name of Kane.bigpatpunchhard posted...If you can't see that this is the one time WWE brought in outside NJPW talent and it just happened to coincide with a tour ROH were doing with NJPW right when WWE were in a dispute with ROH and think that something fishy was going on, then your brain must be incredibly smooth.
Of course @sniperfox29 was the only person still getting really angry about my classic James Storm/RVD topics years into their run so we all know what kind of person he is and we all pity him.
Just leave it, he's clearly a troll then who has to result to insulting people instead of any legitimate argument in the face of facts.Brotherhood. Peace. Unity.

Like damn, they hated the guy so much they went out of the way to put together a documentary on the guy mocking his career and accomplishments.
That's some next level shit right there.
And lol at anyone trying to suggest that the blatant efforts by the company to erase the accomplishments of former talent that are on the outs with them isn't intentional. Goddamn how blinded by WWE do you have to be?Dude, you were the "Marty Jannetty" of a tag team with Marty Jannetty in it, shut the **** up. - DizzyTechno on Al Snow- Boards
