>>12177144>Ortonyou're out of your fucking mind, he's won like 8 World Championships since and has never been not over. If you think him quitting in an extremely physical I Quit match (very underrated and possibly their best) is him being "buried" then I don't know what to tell you, especially because he pinned Cena at HIAC the next month, then lost the title again in a very close Iron Man match.
>Batistavery fitting loss for his character at the time, and did absolutely zero to harm him. Batista himself said he was unhappy with the direction the company was headed at the time (PG, he was fined for blading the previous year) and was gonna quit to try to become an actor anyway.
>DXWhy the fuck would you put the world title on 42 year old Shawn Michaels in the main event of WrestleMania? What makes you think Shawn even wanted the belt? He was used exactly as he should've during his final years. And I sincerely doubt anyone during those years outsold Cena in merch. We don't even have to talk about Triple H, because.. lol
>BobboLike I said, it's the closest thing to "burying" someone who they could've made into a star, but come on, go actually watch that match and try to tell me Bobby was ready for the world title. They definitely tried, which is why he got the rub from Trump and Vince, but it just wasn't his time yet.
>PunkLike I said, Punk's win at MITB was massive and put him over about as well as it could've. It wasn't "clean" because of the Vince shit, but it was a 1-2-3 in the middle of the ring and made Punk a superstar. It was the Nash & Paul shit that buried Punk.
And beyond all that I think you're forgetting that Cena doesn't book the show.
