Keeping in the spirit of nostalgia, I'm going to cherry pick a single sentence out of your lengthy post to respond to:

You saw Survivor Series, right? You really should because the match to which I'm referring was a cracker.

And if you thought you could make me openly admit that Sami Zayn's world title run will be mediocre but that I'm not disheartened because I subscribe to the frankly Marxist belief that any indie darling must first have a mediocre run as a secondary world champion before they achieve full communism (I mean, uh... true success) then you are sadly mistaken.

P. S. You should really just watch NXT.
