It has been an interesting year. I guess every year is interesting with highs and lows. Wrestling is no different. There were a lot of both, possibly more lows than highs. To the best of my ability, I will try to recap 2014 for both TNA and WWE. Not too much cause I don't want these posts to be to wordy.
Let's start with the first part of the year. We had a single WWE world heavyweight champion. Randy Orton. Who was the golden boy of the Authority, and the face of the WWE. Despite all of that he probably wasn't the most popular WWE superstar, nor was John Cena. No that would be either CM Punk or Daniel Bryan.
Daniel Bryan popularity was white hot...but he was in a feud with Bray Wyatt that resulted in Bryan joining the Wyatt family for about 2 weeks and then it ended all of sudden. And what happened to CM Punk? Well you probably remember that. Of course going into the Rumble. A lot of fans wanted either CM Punk or Daniel Bryan to win. But neither of those men won the rumble.
Batista won the Royal Rumble which was disappointing and the crowd voiced that opinion. Actually they booed Batista and Rey Mysterio. Who boos Rey Mysterio? And of course not long after that CM Punk exited stage left and wasn't seen on WWE again. Which this is the part were I believe writing said "now what?" CM Punk leaving WWE, threw a huge wrench into WWE plans. I don't have conformation on that, but I'm sure they had him doing something major. But when he left that all changed. And at this point I think the YES movement was born.
