Seriously have not seen a crowd that hot for a return since The Rock came back in 2011.

That crowd was on FIRE. And seeing Vince's "holy shit....they like this guy-er my son that much?" face is priceless.

Vince's son-in-law got the biggest pop of the night to open the show, and his biological son got the second biggest pop of the night to close the show.

It wasn't supposed to break at all, that was not a planned part of the match. They made their way up there and Shane suddenly said "throw me through that glass." It took more than one suplex because the glass wasn't breakaway glass and Angle didn't throw him hard enough to break it the first time.

No it was planned ahead of time. But it was supposed to be sugar glass (which breaks easily), but instead it was plexiglass. That's why there were no pyrotechnics, because they were afraid the sugar glass would crumble before the match.

There isn't anyone else that could return and have me more hyped than Shane. Loved him as a wrestler and have followed his career as a businessman. It took a lot of guts to do some of the bumps he did in the attitude era. It took even more to leave the WWE and succeed on his own. I don't know if WWE will screw this up before it is all said and done, but it is so good to see him back, even just for a little while.

Just wait until the Corporate Ministry reforms!

Corporate Ministry comes back to fight against Vince, led by a man hidden in robes. They terrorize Vince with all of his bad decisions and awful actions over the decades, over the course of several months, culminating with some final match where Vince has to leave the company if his guy (Cena) loses. He does, then the leader comes out comes out, and pushes Vince into a "grave" that shows up int he middle of the ring, he removes the hood, its HHH, he says 'It's what's best for business' and the grave "explodes" in flames.

Vince never makes a public appearance ever again.

OH MY GAWD, OH MY GAWD, HE BROKE HIM IN HALF!

(Honestly though that shit is hardcore and I think wrestling needs to take more risks like this, Shane had some serious balls which I never expected when first seeing him.)

I have a level of respect for guys like Shane and foley that put their bodies through that, but wrestling absolutely does not need more of that. Nobody should be putting their lives are risk for something so trivial.

Especially considering how injuries the WWE has even with a baby-bump system in place.

Then Stone Cold comes out and confirms that it's now him and Shane running the WWE and they are ushering in a new era of rated R wrasslin.

They both pop a beer and then have a hardcore Street fight which ends in Stone Cold giving a stunner off the jumbotron into a stack of 15 chairs.

WWE is back. EDIT* JR comes back.

I remember being shocked back in the day when Vince came out in his first match and was legitimately fit.

Anybody know what Vince's first real match was? There's mixed info on the internet. I thought I remember the announcers acting surprised as well when he came out and generally looked way more fit than everybody expected.
