>>18595589>most of the cruiserweight matches don't hold upThey didn't hold up back then either, that's why they were usually in the first hour when raw wasn't on, whether it be the 2 hour Nitros or later 3 hour nitros. Assuming you watched back then you'll know the "flippy" in flipping shit refered to changing the channel. Since the big names in the cruiserweight division all got brought into the fed, the WWE produced documentaries were all magnanimous and praised the division as game changing when in reality they were filler. I don't know one person who was excited for the radicalz comming into the fed. They were dimeless tiny men and only Jericho, who preceded the radicalz, could cut a promo, but the stink fo the cruiserweight division lingered over them for years. It wasn't until fat Jericho in early AEW where I could forget these were cruiserweights, aka, dimeless vanilla midgets. That nash insult cut deep because of how accurate it was. Maybe they'd be dime machines now, but for the time the majority of the wrestling audience wanted anything but long drawn out non psychology matches. I had lapsed by the time Guerrero and Benoit won their world title belts but I remember thinking "of they're on top I'm glad I'm not watching"
