-NXT for the most part is trash aside from the woman's division. As far as episodes go we have 1 good match, we maybe have 1 match that doesn't mean anything and 1 squash match. I feel like Neckbeards are looking for something to believe in.

Nxt needs to step up their story telling game, a good match without a good story is like a visually pleasing movie with a mediocre soundtrack

I can't stand the Young Bucks.

The Miz is a good heel and one of the few genuine heels left.

Sheamus is a top 5 worker when motivated (or not facing Orton for the 500th time).

Saxton is decent on commentary.

Neckbeards swear up and down that nxt is the hottest thing in wrestling today when it's not. They overhype it because raw and smackdown is trash.

Bray wyatt is overhyped and isn't as good as some people make him out to be. His mic skills are solid, but his promos are boring. Dude loses more fueds than he wins. He's 0-2 at wrestlemania, and he's an average in-ring wrestler at best. This is the dude that's suppose to be the face of fear, but no ones afraid of him. He's been on the scene long enough and he doesn't have any championship accolades, money in the bank, or royal rumble victories. I don't even believe he have any great matches.

In all honesty, he hasn't really shown much. :yeshrug:

Ecw gets way too much love in comparison to wcw. Nikkas act like wcw never contributed to the progression of pro wrestling(yeah I know they were terribly ran, but still). Wcw had the hottest angle of all time. It was the nwo that kick started the biggest peak in wrestling; the austin 3:16 stuff just added on to what the nwo`s popularity was already doing for wrestling in the same sense of how austin kick started the attitude era and then the rock made it bigger.

Wcw made goldberg and basically set the standard for undefeated streaks in pro wrestling from there on. The undefeated streaks that samoa joe, crismon, ryback, umaga, moose, and others had was influenced from that goldberg streak.

In hindsight Vince McMahon does everything he can to discredit wcw.

Dx ain't better than the nwo and they never were:yeshrug:

It's always ecw this and ecw that and that's not to say that they didn't influence the culture in a good way, but it seems like wcw stay getting sh!tted on. Ecw had a lot of innovative stuff, but they wasn't perfect neither. They always showcased less talented guys like tommy dreamer and sandman. Maybe Vince holds them in higher regards because he saw it as a non-threat. Despite the revisionist history ,Wcw`s presence is still missed to this very day. I just don't understand why ecw gets so much love while wcw gets so much shade. It's as if wcw wasn't even a factor to the business.:upsetfavre:

Randy orton gets too much hate. He played that young arrogant pretty boy role perfectly during his evolution/ legend killer days. His Viper days were cool although legacy was garbage. He consistently have one of the biggest pop on raw. He has one of the better movesets in the main event scene in the wwe. Powerslam, hanging rope ddt, top rope suplex, t-bone suplex, and the rko(the most popular finisher in the game). Unlike cena he doesn't need the spot light and he doesn't always have to win. Dude had two great gimmicks(although legend killer>>>viper)

Eva Marie & Nikki Bella are so overrated looks wise. Eva looks too plastic and Nikki is average at best.

Naomi is mediocre to okay at best.

Character is so overemphasized in importance in WWE and the wrestling aspect is so underappreciated.

Summerslam 2003 isn't as bad of show as "smarks" make it out to be.

Wrestlers using other popular wrestlers moves is stupid and comes off as desperate to get over with the audience.

Storylines about Nationalism will always be stupid.

The wwe overhypes the Michaels/Hart fued because they didn't have anything better.

The new generation isn't an era. It was a transitional period that consisted of new lows. :martin:

The iron man match that Shawn and Bret had is overrated. :yeshrug:
