The days of cocaine, steroids, overt racism, getting yelled at for eating chicken near a referee's bag and being forced to have sex while the guy who forced you is getting off in the closet to it like :ohhh: are over.

It's a different era now and guys have
guaranteed checks. They can't leave even if they wanted to. :yeshrug:
They still do all of that stuff...especially the overt racism.
Old locker room also had a competitor on equal footing and was in the midst of a massive ratings war. WWE now is the end game, so peeps are complacent. Before AEW, it was manufactured rivalries between RAW and Smackdown which most of the time came off corny as hell. It wasn't until AEW launched that WWE cared about locking people up to longer contracts or not letting anyone go to the competition.
Which is even more reason to step up now and be more vocal. As mundane as the WWE has gotten it still isn't as bad as WCW 2000. They're already letting the talent have more freedom with their promos, which again is thanks to AEW.

Oh here we go with the bs brass ring talk again.

You can try to do that, but wwe is 100% corporate now. Everything is micromanaged.

You can't even add in a single "and" or "the" to your scripted promo without getting pulled aside backstage.

Take any talk about being soft from this guy. brehs:mjlol:

The story goes that Show was beat up, frustrated, and wanted to try something new when his WWE contract was about to expire at the end of 2006. So, he reached out to long-time associate Hulk Hogan, who recommended Show try boxing. Hogan linked him up with training and promotional assistance.

Of course, Hogan was in the middle of a personal struggle that included his infamous affair with Heather Clem, the ex-wife of Bubba the Love Sponge, that has also resulted in Hogan’s ongoing legal battle against Gawker for releasing the video.

Show linked up with SoBe, which helped Show with an advance on his Florida home and an IRS tax payment. So, Show began training in Miami. After several months of training in 2007, he took one punch from heavyweight T.J. Wilson during a sparring session and it frightened him.


“I remember trapping [Wilson] in the comer, him getting out of the corner, and then I remember waking up in my Hummer with the keys in the ignition,” Show said in testimony during his ongoing legal matter with SoBe. “Apparently, they had taken my gloves off, called the match, and I had taken my bag and walked out of the gym and was sitting in my car with the car running, when I woke up. It scared the s— out of me.”

Show then backed out of boxing at the end of 2007, told Hogan he was quitting, got reprimanded by Hogan for backing out, and Show decided to return to WWE

:martin: Tell the talent to get themselves over without Management's approval, Big Brehs.

fukk around and get Zack Ryder'd if you want to. Better off waiting til your contract is up like the Revival or Moxley, or just stacking up your retirement plan.

If Vince doesn't seen you as a Superstar, then it will not matter if you're ruffling feathers back there. All it will do is get you heat with your own co-workers while you're still curtain jerking Main Event tapings, lol.

There's a real fukking disconnect with what we see/hear happens, and what these old heads are talking about. The old ways sounded more "rugged" and thus are romanticized. And if shyt was still structured that way, where you could push your way thru to the top just based off talent and passion, then i'd see what he was saying. But it's just fukking not. The cream of the crop CAN rise to the top, but only if they're okay with it. But for most of the roster, like 90% of it on the main shows, the cream rises to the middle and it fukking sits there. And there's just not much hope or consistency. And not much room for creativity.

With the money being guaranteed and some folks getting penalized for rocking the boat despite being encouraged to do so? fukk yeah i'm gonna sit and play video games with the homies, launch a YouTube channel and chill. My passion could MUCH more easily be a liability than a benefit.
