Summary

It’s time for The Lapsed Fan to go “Big Time” on its 30-week WrestleMania journey, as your co-chairmen take the deep dive into Chicago’s AllState Arena for WrestleMania 22 in 2006.

Join hosts Jack Encarnacao and JP Sarro as they dissect the night the WWE definitely said John Cena is our man, whether you like it or not, as he taps Triple H in what was, at the time, a shocking outcome. Plus, contrasts with the half-hearted crowning for Rey Mysterio as World Heavyweight Champion in a finish done for the moment but not the long-term.

Also jump in to:

- The look on Vince McMahon’s face as his son’s face is shoved in his bare ass

- The hardest chair shot in WrestleMania history

- Ric Flair takes a superplex off a ladder in 2006. Because, you know, he has to prove himself. Refs do the “X” sign and pretend he’s dead

- Kurt Angle’s final Mania appearance, the story of his departure, and why he’s one of the greatest performance in Mania history

- Benoit falls to defending the U.S. title on the show two years after taking center stage

- The most horrifying moment of Mick Foley’s bump through a flaming table off an Edge spear

- Trish v. Mickie in the greatest Diva feud of all time

- Jim Ross says: “He is one sick, perverse son of a bitch, he is genuinely evil, he is headed to hell is Vince McMahon.”

- CM Punk’s debut Mania appearance, in Easter Egg form

All that plus Dave Meltzer’s reflection on the beginnings of the crowd turning on Cena, the full story behind making the call to put th ebelt on Mysterio, and so much more.

So get Lapsed across the face with TLF’s 22nd installment of a one-of-a-kind sojourn by downloading here.
