Well, you can't say that January 2006 wasn't an eventful month for WWE. From Edge becoming the first man to ever cash in a Money in the Bank briefcase, using it to win the WWE Championship from a...
Now this is what I'm talking about - a night of just straight-forward good wrestling (mostly), a complete lack of BS and screwiness (mostly), and a big event feel that was enhanced by the final two...

For a brief moment in December 2015, WWE had found a winning path with their generally-maligned choice of superhero, Roman Reigns. His swath of destruction at the end of TLC, followed by his...
