honestly, I dont give a shyt if lil johnny down the block likes the product, I just want it to be a better product overall....thats when it will get more mainstream....I mean when the Wars were going on, all the WWF did was steal shyt from ECW and put it on a bigger stage to get over with the older crowd...but times are different and things change. life evolves....it is what it is I guess.

It was big, no doubt, but cool? Not even close. Woody Allen movies from that time were mocking pro wrasslin as something for inbreds.

Only when Austin presented that MTV VMA award was it officially apart of the cool crowd, notice how just 1-2 years laters no wrestler was invited again, the coolness was over.


It's sad when wrestling fans are crying for it to be cool again, it's not and likely won't be, be secure in yourself and enjoy it


were you around during rocky III to hulkamania?

another boom peiod will never occur.
until the mcmahon/hhh regime allows themselves to be vulnerable.
right now, the clique could use their own playbook of the nwo and use the shield to be the nwo at mania.
To take over the WWE by serving hhh throughed't Seth rollins/mitb and dean Ambrose winning the ic title.
by having reigns realign by all means necessary with tue shield and screw lesnar and db and the McMahons.
yet, this will never happen because the mcmahons are never going to be vulnerable.

It seems as though they don't really care to give a damn about the product anymore. The belts have been devalued in ways where cats are just holding them and their still in the same spot that they were in 5 years ago. Reigns should have had a nice solid run with the IC title and it would have brought credibility back into the title and give Reigns alot of momentum. Instead they hot dog the title around left and right while nobody is being developed to go into that main spot. You have Barrett instead feuding with Ambrose which would have been great on paper but theres no story behind it, Theirs no reasoning behind their sudden beef, and it gives us no reason to want to see Barrett get his ass kicked or root for Dean.. Its like Cokeboy tells them to just "Go out there, Give them a solid 10 minutes and have a good night".

Another Qualm I have is how you still have Kane and Show clogging up the Main Event scene and main stories. Those two spots could have been easily for guys like Barrett and Ceesaro. They both could be legitimate hit men for the Authority and it would provide fresh matchups for Bryan, Ziggler, Orton(whom is returning), Ambrose, Sheamus, Cena or whomever is left to hold that babyface slot. Those two would really shine heavily in those roles like Gully Blanchard and Arn Anderson did in the Horsemen but instead them muthafuggas got Ceesaro as a damn Rosebudd going against the New Day. And they wonder why this shyt aint interesting.

These nikkas are publicly traded now so there will never, ever be a boom for wrestling again. At least not because of them.
I think Austin and Rock could open up a wrestling federation and everyone would flock to it. Overnight. Much like everyone did with the SOHH to Coli transition.
