10 Once Awesome WWE Storylines Which Overstayed Their Welcome
5. The Anonymous Raw GM
This one is a little different than the others. However, this storyline dragged on all the same.
When first introduced, it was an interesting concept. Fans kept guessing who could be behind the computer, which is just what the company wanted. It kept people on the edge of their seats, as at any moment an email could come through and the whole landscape of the show could be turned on its head.
People went looking for answers.
Who was behind the computer? Could it be a legend? A returning superstar? A debuting superstar?!
In the end, the only question being asked was, who cares?
The computer was even nearly destroyed a couple of times, but yet, it always came back with the same result, nobody was named. The big reveal never came, months went by and still no name behind the computer. The computer notifications were met with resounding boos every time the chimes rang throughout the arena, chants were created to express how much the Raw GM sucked and it turned Michael Cole into a figure who would be despised by the fans for years to come.
Thankfully, the computer was quietly scrapped. However, the person behind the whole thing was finally revealed a year later as none other than Hornswoggle! Yeah, that's right, Hornswoggle, the leprechaun under the ring.
