Wow, I was 5 seconds into replying to this this thread saying the same thing. I was just looking at it and it was a nice looking best. But I am biased since I feel that was the best example of "wrestling" that probably happened in my lifetime.

Sometimes I hate the affect WWF had on my perception of wrestling.  It's hard for me to enjoy a match without a decent storyline behind it.  I've gotten better at appreciating well executed moves and hating stiff wrestlers thanks to this thread though

I think the WWE would benefit from a ranking system. Also main event Summerslam with Kevin Dunn and Jim Cornette in a HIAC match. :smokin
 
A timeless topic, but man been watching random Rock clips (returns, saves, moments), and he is easily my all time favorite.

:hat

The Jericho/Ziggler feud was the start of his push. Fandango/Jericho didn't go anywhere but it was more Fandango the gimmick. My only issues with Jericho's last few returns is he hasn't won any matches or feuds so the rub really isn't there.

But I blame WWE booking and poor use of enhancement talent and building credible competitors as the issue. UFC has a ranking system, does prime time specials to build up key matches. Probably why their cards have broke 1 million while WWE not so much besides Mania.

The WWE could learn a lot from the UFC.

Personally, I've been saying FOREVER that having something as simple as a tale of the tape would do a ton to legitimize the business.
 
Hey...let's not pretend like the UFC is perfect. Over saturation, weak cards, bland stars post GSP, Diaz, Brock, Ortiz, Rampage, Silva, etc.

But they're not grossly incompetent like Michael Hayes, Kevin Dunn, Vince's Dufus Son in Law, etc. I can't believe the shareholders haven't asked for heads to roll.
 
I was listening to Cheap Heat and the other guy said Naomi was the Brock Lesnar of the Divas division. A few weeks before he said it was Charlotte.

The Divas division hasn't had so many talented divas as now. But we get random Total Divas storylines like Naomi/Cameron. The Steph/Bella's isn't bad. Easy build and payoff. Hopefully, Brie doesn't botch it with her acting.
 
I see a lot of jr influence in some of these post. Just take the product for what it's worth.

I'm not selling DDP Yoga, Deer Hunter, Onnit, etc.

And the product isn't worth much or Vince wouldn't have most $300 million in Monopoly money. They'd be promoting a million network subscribers. Mania would've broken a million buys. And they would've gotten a Nascar TV contract vice small bump from NBC.

Off to watch NXT.

Macho Man always had great outfits. Definitely one of the GOATs.

Deer hunter is the truth tho...

And it's non of my business if Vince lost 300M. I just watch the product he presents to me and choose to keep watching it. If I didn't like it I'd watch the stuff I did like on the network.
