Deep Sea with that Vinnie Mac mentality man. So when Trips finally takes over and we all know it'll happen eventually and he has smaller guys carrying the title you won't like the product bc of that?

Ultimo there are degrees of suspension of disbelief. You have to give me a reason to do so man.
Of course I know it is fake but don't remind me it is. That is all I axe

All you took away was the first line of that paragraph? Believable and pro wrestling shouldn't be an issue. Thats where I'm getting at.

Its real easy to book a match where its "believable" for a smaller opponent to win.

See that is where we differ, I believe it SHOULD be believable. We can agree to disagree
It depends on who the small wrestler is an who the other wrestler is. But we aren't simply discussing WINS and LOSES. We are talking about actual title reigns. Big difference.

Eddie is in my Top 10 all time, but him being the #1 of a whole company, nah man. I can't buy that.DC not even cool with Eddie being champ? Damn.
Nobody was serious about them whooping a pro wrestler man LOL. Simmer down.Some of y'all are hilarious talking about you could beat up pro wrestlers
Don't you realize that even the small dudes live in the gym and have muscles you could only dream of having
Not to mention ridiculous cardio and that most have the ability to be hyper aware of they're surroundings
Your looking at them on a screen or monitor so they appear to be small but even the smallest guys are wider and more built than an average person
On another note this is supposed to be looked at as a professional sport when we suspend suspend our belief
That being said everyone on the roster is supposed to be looked at as something special because they made it there
With some of your logic I bet you would look at someone like Bruce Lee and mutter to yourself "I can take him"
But I do feel there is a problem if you look at the WORLD CHAMPION and think you stand a chance in a one-on-one battle.

I feel like this an elaborate plan by DC to impress BDB.

DC would have to take on a Raekwon roleplay account to do that.

Nah, I know @brendasdeadbaby feels the same way as I do but I am being dead serious here man. I want the wrestling business get back to where it once was. That won't happen if "ordinary dudes" are on top running things. That isn't going to draw folks in.
Yall forget that wrestling is essentially a circus, nobody goes to look at the circus to see people that look like them. They want to see abnormal looking humans do abnormal things.
There is a place for Dolph, Rey, Seth, Daniel Bryan, but that isn't being the champion of the world.

Haha I'm not getting hot or nothing, just saying with that logic no one can be champion if they don't look like a massive warrior. It would kill what most of is love about wrestling and that's the connection we get from people who can really get over. It's all about suspended belief so there is no reason a small guy who's good shouldn't be the champion

You are missing the point. That is so far from what this discussion is about.
Again, I never said that "ordinary dudes" aren't allowed to be successful. I simply said you have to be careful with who you are putting that title on. There are plenty of other ways folks can get over than being the WORLD champion
I think Seth Rollins's title reign was weak for a few reasons.
1. He was booked like a b****
2. He LOOKS like a B****

The entire 90's run of AJPW laughs at this entire post. Misawa for all intents & purposes looked like an angry Asian dad and they sold out Tokyo Dome after Tokyo Dome.

Ultimo, you know that MANY times in this discussion I said these "rules" only apply to American Wrestling, specifically WWE.

DC these marks are a product of the attitude/Monday night wars/ecw era which we both agreed breed terrible habits still seen today. Can't talk to these marks about it they are in fantasy land. Now stop "@" me b. not in the states and I get a email pop up every time
