You're right. He really was over. And pretty deserving of it. A friend reminded me today that I was pretty jacked when he took the strap. I was always a DDP fan, going back to the Diamond Exchange in AWA. My dad always used to say "he's been there". I finally asked where "there" was. "To hell and back".

My God, JBB was terrible. No chemistry, no charisma, little talent. One of the reasons Regal is so underrated was his ability to carry glorified jobbers like Mero. His exposing Goldberg was some comical stuff too.
