The bad guy has to be on top at the beginning for any face to get over. I'm not even talking pro-wrestling, I'm talking storytelling 101.
parents these days with their 'let's give everyone a medal for participating' baby soft mentalities
Good Lord people are getting softer by the day
wrestling was "PG" for the most part in the late 80's early 90's and STILL I saw a dude get locked in a coffin, saw a voodoo master use black magic on a wrestler numerous times, a cat get bit by a snake, saw a woman get slapped, I saw a police officer get handcuffed to a rope and beaten by a prisoner in a jump suit and that's just the WWF AND this was all on saturday morningsyet I somehow became a productive member of society.
Guess what the difference was, moms always watched wrestling with me and explained shyt that needed to be explained and walked me thru shyt that didn't add up, she didn't write letters begging an entertainment company to her job as a parent.
-P-
can someone explain this shyt to me, I haven't watched wrestling in a couple years. What happened?Steph responded to another fan on twitter who called Ryback and the Corporation bullies by saying its just entertainment...."like any show or movie."
This is how Lord Zedd from Power Rangers got ruined, he came in and crushed the building making the rangers fall back. Then moms started to complain about Zedd being "too scary" and they made him a comedy villain as a result. Have your kids watch WWE Main Event, Zack Ryder can be your kid's hero.... or call 1-800-Fella.

c/s. No wonder why cartoons in the west have always been ultra, there's no level of threat because they villains are neutered because of bytches with kids. I noticed how they did my boy Zedd, Zedd was a monster when he debuted, after that he was team rocket status.
. Fukk outta here with this team rocket bullshyt, I want some real ass villains doing real ass heelish things, catching bodies and making the heroes look foolish. That's why nikkas went crazy when dragon ball z hit the scene. You had frieza and them goons crushing buildings all over the place. That's what made the eventual conflict better, You had a build up, because you witnessed first hand the kind of atrocities the heel committed, people don't appreciate proper heel development anymore.
I grew up watching the original teenage mutant ninja turtles and all of that but truth be told the cartoon shouldn't have been that campy, shredder should have been like the way he was depicted in the movies. A straight up deadly motherfukker who is capable of shutting shyt down, the good guys shouldn't be able to win effortlessly at the end of each episode. .
Outside of Justice League, gargoyles, avatar, most cartoons gotvillains.
