Why is burying Jordan even an option ? If he's not gonna do the match..Why do it to prop up a has been like Cripple H? The guy who has turned into the Anti Draw of the industry.

Why is everything always about getting a rub or even worse, giving a rub to people who don't even warrant it to begin with? Throwing Jason Jordan or Dillinger in this match ain't the smart thing to do cause either way, they'd be gettin' bumped out early. Like homie said, wrestling isn't like basketball or football where being younger is always the advantageous thing. Half of this match are older stars who have been around for a long time, but they're also experienced main eventers. The others aren't necessarily 'young' but they're also all experienced main event performers (Braun being the exception, but he's over like a MF). Why would swapping one of them out for someone as inexperienced and unover as Jason Jordan be 'the smart thing'?

The point is the company has failed to create enough new stars in the past decade.

At least four of the guy's in this match are not even full time wrestlers. This is why Mania's are built around Taker, Goldberg, HHH etc

I don't care about Jason Jordon. The issue is they should already have more developed, younger stars ready to step up in this match. The fact that they don't pinpoints how shytty their efforts have been to build up the younger guys.

And this doesn't bode well for the future as the Attitude Era nostalgic acts are nearly done.

Age itself isn't necessarily the problem, but 5 out of 10 guys are tired, stale acts who have been in the main event scene for the last 15-20 years. 1 of those 5 guys is a part-timer, 2 of those 5 guys are semi-retired, and another 1 out of that 5 isn't a career wrestler. This is what WCW used to get made fun of for. Now it's WWE that is the home of the dinosaurs.

WWE is doing Starrcade and War Games in the same month in 2017, dude. That's as WCW as it can possibly get.

Maybe it's not a fair comparison but outside of Tamina and Asuka all the other women in the Women's match are younger than Bray.

It is fair, and Mickie brought this up at HIAC where her age was a sticking point in the angle, yet she brought up that there were multiple women as old or older than her on the roster, and half the men on the card that night were older than her.

Man stop watching then shyt. You nikkas complain about wwe and their bullshyt all the time but can’t stop talking about them. NoBODY aside from his family was mad they bumped him for HHH either you nikkas like complaining g like bytches or are just weird and. It in a creative cool way just weird. That goes for everyone acting like there age matters, by the time AJ and all the part timers are done the young guys in nxt will be 30+ and hitting their stride just in time to take over. Are y’all going to complain when jinder turns the corner and hits his stride in the next 5 or so years? Calling him old

Wrestlers always trended older... Due to it being a performance art. Your usually better the older you get. It's not like actual competitive sport where being younger has physical advantages.

I mean every era for the most part the headliners were usually no younger than 30

Hogan was in his

You are mostly right with one exception...I'd say the early 2000s OVW era call ups with Brock Orton Cena and Batista were mostly young guys..but that time frame is the exception

I complain no because it sucks and I havent watched TV since 2015. You'e the ones stuck and mired in the muck. I told u it would fall off and the arenas have been ghost towns in the aftermath of the Bryan retirement.

The “A” show must always look good. That’s the only thing I don’t like about this build is how stacked raw is. Smack down needs the win and angle should be able to keep his job. But being that his job is on the line means they are winning

I suspect that AJ will lose due to Jinder fukkery, the rest of the champs on Smackdown will win and Shield will win.

The two team matches are questionable but I don't know how you get rid of Braun or Asuka without ruining their mystique. I would've kept both off the team.

Braun either can be counted out or DQ'd

I think Asuka will be one of the winners.
