2004 was a transitional year. Focus on veterans like Benoit, Guerrero, Bradshaw, BookerT, HHH, HBK taking to the main event, while new stars like Cena, Orton, Batista were starting to gain traction. Then you had Kenzo Suzuki and Mordecai 😂

@@sreenaths6829 Nah, Kenzo was garbage IMO. Even back in 2004 I was used to japanese wrestlers being awesome in the ring, mostly due to guys like Tajiri, Taka, Kaientai or Ultimo Dragon. Kenzo was an embarrassment for any japanese dojo. I watched him a few years ago in All Japan and was hoping to see some improvement, but he still is one of the worst japanese wrestlers I have ever seen.

You know, I always look back at 2004 as being a consistently great year for WWE and one of my personal favorite years in general. But I never really fully realized how much of a hit the business took that year....with Austin leaving, Rock, Lesnar, Goldberg...Cena, Orton, and Batista still not *yet* molded into the mega-stars they would become and no one but HHH, HBK, Taker and a few others to fill in those MASSIVE holes those guys left (and no one ever really fully did). *THAT* was the year WWE and wrestling as a whole really took its " Death Blow".....and its been bleeding out ever since. And then ofc...the following year...Eddie passed, and not too long after Benoit; both shrouded in controversy (especially Benoit), and then ofc the following scandals... only further cementing WWES' fate.

Yup. The draft destroyed Smackdown and it never really recovered for the remainder of the brand split. Benoit, Edge, Tajiri, Rhyno and Benjamin, all gone to Raw. All of them incredibly skilled guys. Heyman gone as well. The only two decent guys SD got out of the draft were RVD and Booker T. Then Brock left for NFL and Angle was injured for most of the year. Adding absolute duds like Luther Reigns, Mark Jindrak, the Bashams or Orlando Jordan to the roster also didn't help much. I think at one point during the year RVD and Rene Dupree had the same exact match every week for like 2 months in a row. That's when I realised how desperate the SD roster was.
