Can we Officially Label WWE WCW Status?

[The Intergalactic Koala]

• USA's contract is almost up/The Time Warner merger wanting nothing to do with wrestling
• Overbloated ass roster
• Old guys running the main event
• Cena not caring/Hogan not caring
• Punk leaving/Jericho leaving
• Cruiserweights being underused
• Giving away Network subscriptions every month/Giving away tickets every show
• Giving away a Wrestlemania match on a lukewarm PPV
• Outdated pop culture references

Good golly we officially dubba cee dubba boyz

Triple H = Hollywood Hulk Hogan

Now I need Hogan in the Wolfpack to chime on such accusations

Triple H = Hollywood Hulk Hogan

In more ways than one.

In more ways than one.

Double entendre don't even ask me how

WCW had better stars

I meant those of us still in the RAW thread every week. If it was easy for us to dip we would've by now.

Edit: Even 2015 is pretty late to dip compared to the viewers who started leaving in 2002.

I came back to watch in 2011 and dipped in 2015. I view 2011 and 2013 fondly tbh and even 2012 is nowhere near and bad as now and that was awful at the time

It's easy to leave. You guys stay because you entertain yourselves in the threads.

I was like that for some time. Then I realized there's other stuff to do. Now I only live post during PPVs.

There's no comparing WWE now to the absolute clusterfukk that was WCW in 2000-2001.

I never knew HHH had so many marks for him. They weren't even this supportive during his peak face run

Gotta be people who started watching in 2009 or whenever he was getting cheered and was finally looking accepted

WCWE= World Championship Wrestling Entertainment

You enjoyed that?

That whole ending was confusing and poorly performed......but still, the anger that HHH brings out of ya'll is astonishing. Especially since he's been doing the same exact shyt for the past 6 years.

Nobody is angry. Just tired of the same act that benefits nobody. Doesn't help ratings, build stars, or create classic memories. Just the same dude getting attention when it would better suit the product if attention was disbursed to active and in their prime wrestlers. shyt is pointless and tired.

I agree with you.....but it's almost like y'all expected something different. Every year around this time H comes back and shoehorns himself into a program leading up to Wrestlemania. He goes away for a while, comes back and does the same shyt all over again. And each and every time it the same complaints.

As much as I appreciated the jokes and gifs in spoilers, once I didn't have instant access to the net while I was watching shows, I realized that I wasn't really being entertained that much by the show itself. I watch PPVs, I drop in here for Takeovers (the only time the WWE can be trusted to put on a good 2 hour show from top to bottom). Other than that, I can go weeks without watching "the product" and be unbothered because I want good wrestling, and the storylines don't do much for the actual wresting. It kinda depends on what you're a fan of.

It's tough to watch now, but it'll never be WCW status because they have two shows and one will always be somewhat entertaining.

I continue to believe that someone needs to create another promotion that could capitalize on WWE. I truly believe someone could thrive in this era right now and the non-WWE NA territories - I could be wrong, I'm sure some indy is thriving - just aren't doing it.

personally I wish the rock and his fam would make a promotion.
