What a neccbeard question
Hulk Hogan took WWF national
Steve Austin and The Rock saved WWF and took it to all-time highs

Ask 10 people outside right now to name a wrestler and they will say Hogan, Rock, Cena, or Austin

Rikidozan and El Santo were national icons that transcended the sport in their countries

Daniel Bryan has a bunch of beards excited at a show they were gonna buy tickets to no matter what

When Hogan left, WWF business went down
When Austin turned heel, WWF business went down
When Austin and Rock left, WWE business went down
When Cena is on a show there is a noticeable increase in tickets
Daniel Bryan ___? People chanted his name when he didn't win matches they wanted him to win. Yeah that's almost the same :mjlol:
1-star, neg pending
No Cena increase in tickets since like 2007. They ran to Floyd and others over Cena.

:mjlol: WHAT???? Not even close to being the most over. Part-Time Rock outdrew Daniel Bryan in his prime the year prior to his biggest WM crowning at WM 30. Daniel Bryan never moved the ratings and that's a big part of being over. People think he's even more over than GOLDBERG was in his prime? :mindblown:

The only difference between Austin, Hoegan and Bryan is that Vince is not pushing Daniel Bryan

Vince pushed Hoegan

Vince, even if it took a while, pushed Austin

Vince RELUCTANTLY pushed Daniel Bryan because he was not what Cokeboy wanted to be the face of the company, and real talk the only reason why he's wrestling next Sunday is because Vince knows if Daniel Bryan left this summer, he'd be at WrestleKingdom in January, having marquee matchups with Okada, Naito, Omega, and even Jericho. Hell, once Punk gets his ass beat again he might head over there too and then you got two of the biggest WWE stars of the past decade, not only helping NJPW grow, but strengthening its foothold in the states, and propping up ROH as well.


New Japan missed its chance to take over all of north America in the start of a seige.
when they never put over omega and the iwgp title as a belt anyone in the world could win in their promotion without being kr siphoning off of the Indy built best wrassler and their own inhouse viewed built up creation and star in omega. Then to be so dense to let said star never win. Then, ruin the best rampup gimmick and character change in the history of wrasslin. All in exchange for a ambiguous gay duo based tag team.
Straight up the stoopidest decision after letting the son in law beat the rock and Mick Foley at mania xvii.
New Japan can forget it now cause there are no more Indy Herod who saved wrasslin left. Plus new Japan has no idea about quality when it comes to actually knowing what non Asian wrassler to choose to be a focal point of the promotion outside of bullet club.
New Japan showed they too are to built in race and not understanding how to market a global based product. When the company is called new Japan which does not mean the promotion has to have a Asian flagship to make it global.

Just a complete inept decision, and to nit step in or step up to crown Kenny and curtail bullet club in quality is why they will never be global just local. Regardless if they have a show that is on a global syndication.

I am so fukk'n sick of Asian Orton I don't know wtf to do.

When yes, Naito and omega in the main event scene made the company compelling past the what if Orton and cena meets manga come to life style ideals of tanahashi and Okada.
Now the stink of the orton/cena in Asia comparison rings even largely more true. Plus the funk of being orton/cena in Asia will never create a mainstream boom as the domestic Orton and cena have never created a boom.
Like njow just jagged the better version of the nwo and hijacked clique rules.
shyt is so mindboggling and stoopid.

Jag going global, breh's.

You can't go global with a pretty boi strip gimmick and he ain't once had no hoes or development that resonates with what making it rain means to a global audience. Dude would have to be the godfather with phoney money to get the gimmick to crack and I don't think you can go global marketing the godfather with no hoes as your flagship. That is how stoopid njpw has been with this Asian Orton bullshyt.

Plus real talk,...
They could have been smart and put over hangman over jay white and recaptured the draw and mystique of bullet club immestediately. Instead, they jagged't a chance to rebolster the appeal to these crackas with Paige and rebolster bullet club with a new change up.
to whom could be viewed as the flagship. Instead they continue this use our in house over everyone shyt and that never worked for them.
or WWE to be all the way real.

Ruin the greatest and dopest black tshirt logo in history, breh.

I dunno sometimes if I wanna wear my bullet club shirt no more after this omega shyt.

shyt feel like when they kept emasculating heman for she-Ra and not capping that shyt and putting back over he-man and making Adam more masculine and focused. Instead of making adora Into the intense hard body and focused alter ego character over Adam.
Got Adam being a p*ssy on eternia still and adora as a brooding war general in the nikka skeletor scared of army. Where adora without a power sword look like she would body hordak and skeletor with no sword.

This shyt is that stoopid. Got bullet club out here looking gay and the gimmick started off with cool ass gimmick names like the shooter. Then evolve to the cleaner,...

shyt a slap in the face.


Especially when hangman came to Japan up'd his look to the best in the biz complete with knee pads too.
Then, put on the real six star classic match with the njpw dojo golden boi.

Mid match I would called in the audible to jay white like you dropping that strap to hangman.
Hangman survives the bladerunner and hangman hits his cold ass hell finish and bullet club rides again and we salvage going global. Instead,...nuffin and we get huff ass Zach sabre and weak ass juice Robinson instead.
Straight fukk the Asian racism in njpw too.

They don't get it as far as being global.
