To be honest,....
Cripple ache ruined the boom draw of wrasslin with the outcome to change the end year face wins dynamic at mania.
When he went over the rock and mankind in a four way.
That I feel the black demographic to the general fan base were turned off from just apparent racism to not have the rock go over.
Deflected onto driving numbers by the WWE to get a second high by rate for backlash. Coupled with the horrible actual outcome of the booking for backlash.
Where hhh never actually took the loss he should have in the quality of the storyline.
That it turned the viewership off to the point I feel the casual mainstream crowd will never give wrasslin a large mainstream booming draw ever again.
Despite, what the spreadsheet numbers say on twitter.
That the WWE will try to use to authenticate to marketing wings of any corporation to get a check.
Yet, the damage was done in that decision and unless the McMahon regime never addresses that.
Or books a decision based on quality to rectify it.
WWE will never create another mainstream drawing boom era again.
As, they turned off the actual fan base that would create a boom from ever trusting the company to blow up in mainstream permation and media again.

If WWE was smart they have the opportunity to rectify the racist decision.
they made to never give rock a mania title win over cripple ache.
Yet, this company is inept and knows they don't want to admit.
they were wrong at that level of corporate execution.
That they will never do the right thing and they will never redraw.
or create a mainstream boom because of it ever again.

Yeah, rock is appearing at mania.
Yet, if he never beats hhh at mania for the title.
WWE can forget about being a mainstream cosigned draw ever again and the window is closing in the next four years to do it where it would count.
Imo, the window is closing this year for it to matter.
So, after mania this year, imo....
If the rock is never booked to beat hhh for the title at mania.
WWE will have lost its opportunity to ever be a real mainstream draw ever again.

Especially with the whole Hogan racist elephant thing in the room.
Plus, their will never be another black mainstream ringsport based personality.
to create the boom that Mr t and Tyson did to ignite or reignite the WWE as a drawing powerhouse.

The appeal it still has after all these years is fascinating to me. I remember this chick I use to work with hood as it gets telling me about all the current wrestlers they have.

You would've broke yo neck trying to do a Phoenix Splash or a Salida del sol off a ladder

My cousin did one of those flips off my bunk bed when we was kids, busted his head on the pencil sharpener attach to my dresser Me, my brother, and my other cousin laughed at his ass for a good 5 minutes before helping him.

People who criticize people who watch wrestling are stupid, it's not only naked men fighting. There is drama, and stories behind each character..it's like watching a drama show. The fight then is just the nice part of it, it's no different than watching some fighting movie. I will agree the product has been trash these recent years but I don't understand the criticism behind it.

 

[Mac Casper]

they just move onto UFC actually

don't believe me? compare the rating demographics

Don't have an opinion, just here for the fukkery

This thread gets made more than threads asking why grown ass men watch reality shows about housewives or grown ass men listening to industry plant rap in 2016

 

[Koba St]

Whats the difference between watching wrestling which isnt real but pretending to be and a hollywood movie which isnt real but also pretending to be?

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

You definitely should've dropped this thread in tsc.

I'm guessing you was too nervous to come to the neighborhood and congregate.

WWE was the shyt between 1995 and 2003 when the Attitude Era was in full effect. These new kids are really missing out.

Wwf was horrible in all the nineties and late eighties, till Austin was made the actual real focal point.

I stopped watching wrestling years ago when I was a kid and wrestling is trash. However almost all TV is trash.
I looked at a listed of highly rated shows, and highlighted all the bs.
Paying for TV in 2016

You can not base the quality of tv on the neilsen ratings.
As they give out those boxes to people who are well off from the redline era and mindlessly part ways with their cash for no real reason.

Basing tv show quality off ratings is outdated and sooner or later..the entire system will be either eradicated or used to reveal it is a barometer of the one Percent of wealth's spending habit/frequencies in this country.
If it is not already apparent what the ratings demographic really is.
