So John Sina is about to retire, he has retired, or he's been retired for a good old while. It depends when you watch this video. But the truth is, the goat, or one of the goats of professional wrestling, has now hung up his boots. And given out Adam and John Sina has been about never breaking his retirement, I don't think he is going to be like other wrestlers. And even if one day he'd go up to his house and say, he's $72 billion, he's going to like, I'm sorry, Chief, I promise the fans I'd never come back and I got to stick to it. Therefore, what we should do as a fan base is go through some of his most important and some of his most exciting matches. And remind ourselves that while some fans did like to chart Newkart wrestle, actually when it did come down to it, John Sina was pretty flipping good.

So it's 20 John Sina matches. You should check out today. Number 20 versus RVD at ECW one-night

0:44.0

stand 2006. So as we know, John Sina was essentially Mr. P.G. After WW, we had decided,

0:49.8

oh, hi, we should try and make our content more family friendly. John Sina was the top star, so any kind of edge, not Adam Copeland, he went to AEW, that could have been on television, on Raw, Smackdown was taken away. John was told, listen, if you could appeal to kids, we'd really appreciate it. And that was not quite the same at ECW One Nightstand 2006, because of course, this was a throwback to the original Extreme Championship Wrestling even if it was under a w w banner and given that it was in the hammersstein ballroom a bunch of eccw fans did turn up and they didn't like john sina at all in fact they looked at the guy and said you know what we think you're everything wrong with pro wrestling seen it wasn't an idiot either he was so damn prepared therefore when he walked in and did his entrance, he had his head down, he just held his W.W.E. Tyler loft. And yes, this is the night when he threw his t-ja into the crowd and they threw it back as RVD Rob Van Dam, who was the challenger, was also having the time of his life. This match is actually pretty good anyway. But with the atmosphere in that venue and just how mad everybody is,

1:47.7

I tell you men, having the time of his life. This match is actually pretty good anyway, but with the atmosphere

1:44.1

in that venue and just how mad everybody is, I tell you man, it's totally fantastic. And it

1:50.2

basically gave birth to a meme. What's the famous sign that isn't the crowd? John Sina wins

1:54.9

we right. Actually, he didn't win at all. That's what makes it even better too, because of course

1:58.4

Edge gets involved in allowing RVD to become the WW champion. So not only had we finally seen John Cena as a

2:04.8

heel, basically, which is what so many people wanted, but flipping Rob Van Dam was the

2:09.7

WWE champion. It's one of those moments in time that you owe it to yourself to watch

2:14.5

because it's flubbing brilliant. Number 19 versus Kevin Owens at the Elimination Chamber 2015.

2:19.1

So actually, you could probably make a case for 2015 being John Sinner's best year ever,

2:23.1

mostly given what he did in that US Tile Open Challenge.

2:26.4

Not only did he have just great matches against everybody like Pack or Neville or Sammy Zane

2:30.7

or a bunch of other folk too, he actually took the championship and finally made it mean something and believe you meet.

2:36.6

When you go to the history of WWE and that their belt, it is hit and miss.

2:40.7

There's also the same time WWE decided to take Kevin Owens from NXT and put him on the main roster.

2:45.8

Every single thing we did here was basically perfect because while everybody kind of hoped that

2:50.5

KIO would get the victory over John Cena at the pay-per-view, nobody believed it down in their tum-tum. So when Kevin Owens did it with basically a single pop-up power bomb and no shenanigans and no real cheating, nobody could believe it. And again, if you were just a fan of the main roster product and you didn't watch nxte straight away you were like well who

3:07.9

is this kevin oh man's better keep an eye on him and what has ko done ever since then he's basically been a

3:12.6

tip of top star it was an offshoot to this of course as well because nxte was bringing about the best
