Wrestling - Part 3

Said it for years. The actual wrestling now is by far and away better now. They just had bigger stars and better creative then.

Would like to have seen what Bryan, Ambrose, Rollins would have been like in that era with good scripts and TV14.

They probably wouldn't have been pushed. Vince loved the muscle more back then, undeniable.

Funny that Nxt is mainly all smaller technical wrestlers. They'll all struggle on the main roster tbh until Vince takes a step back. He simply doesn't book them very well, either by choice or lack of knowing.

They've done a brilliant job with Rollins though

HBK smaller than Rollins and Ambrose, only a couple of inches taller than Bryan and he certainly had a hard on for Shawn!

Dont think it will happen until he takes his last breath and even then I think he would put some contract in place to follow scripts to protect his legacy over a few years. I was watching that new WWE24 on the network and was cringing at watching him on the Mic in front of the monitor while Wrestlemania was on even at this stage in his life. WOuld love to here the things he says in the ears of the refs, commentators while an event is on like.

Rather than the attitude era, just after that around 2002 they would have been stellar, slotted in when the 'Smackdown Six' and Heyman booking SD into a better show than Raw they wouldnt have been out of place
 
Going by HHH interview on the wwe.com it's not gonna be bringing the WHC back, 'the triple threat match was incredible but the rumble match wasn't right, as I said we're not like the NFL, we're gonna put things right' well not exactly word for word but pretty much the gist of what he said, if they change things for a second year in a row because of fan reactions then they're only gonna cause more problems for themselves long term as fans know if they shit on the show WWE will change the outcome.

Its a disgrace, I was bored of his gimmick after about 3 segments but people seem to like it. Seems a real shame his great character will never return. In a year he will have turned face on Miz, dressed as a few opponents and jobbed, then possibly even released.

What I don't get is how someone who is Arrogant and full of himself willingly be a copy of himself.... you could Hunter Hearst Helmsley to be fair.

He had a great gimmick and character but had it abandoned for few laughs as a lacky to Miz. He will be in lower midcard of future endeavoured in 2016
