Y'all hate Vince this much to believe this bull.:mjlol:

It's SCREAMING "work".

You've got NXT guys passing the belt around and main eventing Raws and PPVs. Forget The Shield for a second and recall that Rusev was an NXT guy as were Woods and Big E.

All of the current main roster champions are NXT guys/women with the exception of Trips (who runs NXT).

Your biggest money guy has been booked against The Shield two Manias in a row since breaking Taker's streak.



It may not be his favorite, but I doubt he hates the talent.:comeon:

Folks in here talking trash about the New Age Outlaws? Man their intro got more pops than anyone else in DX.

And dont give me that shyt about him not being a legend because only people in a certain age range know him. How many people alive now give a shyt about Arnold Skaaland and Mikel Scicluna.

People need to realize that, ironic as it sounds, Vince McMahon has NEVER been a big fan of wrestling. He's a fan of machismo. He's a fan of fukkery and old school carny shows. He's a fan of big muscled men flexing on stage. He's a fan of money, but not at the expense of the other things. And the actual wrestling? He can take it or leave it.

Vince's real passion was the World Bodybuilding Federation, and when that failed, he just turned the wrestling federation into the WBF. He was owner and CEO and put himself on commentary to control everything, and he never even bothered learning the names of the wrestling moves.

So yeah, NXT is basically the opposite of everything he's always loved about the business.

:lupe:

I could be writer for the WWE. I got some crazy storylines that he would like. Only problem is they are not PG.

I don't know about all the legend stuff. That's all semantics and what not. I just know that they had their moment.

Top 20 Things You Didn't Know About D-Generation X

As a group, D-Generation X was incredibly popular and one of the major acts of the Attitude Era. Within that group, The New Age Outlaws were even more popular. The WWE has stated that Road Dogg and Billy Gunn were considered the most popular duo of the era. The merchandise sales back that up, as they were the
third best seller of merch, only trailing Stone Cold Steve Austin and the Rock. That’s pretty impressive company.

Billy Gunn > Triple H on merchandise in the Attitude Era. Filed and understood.

Gotta let these dudes cook. Its not all about the Main Event, Main Belt etc. There is a whole team. You can be a great contributor at any level. So to say Vince doesnt see anything in these guys is asinine. It's different levels of money in all these guys.

People really put to much stock into fake belts and ring times and shyt. Thats like going to the circus and saying "yo this Lion Tamer is really good he needs a push, why is the Elephant going on Last!?!" I always looked at wrestling like a play or a opera. Its all ONE big Main Event, different slots and attractions. Flippy shyt, Brawling, Titties, Tall Guys, Comedy Guys, etc. It's all just parts to a machine. Vince knows that.

Theyre performers and they all can find a comfortable spot. And make different levels of cash for the company. Vince eating off Naomi's T shirt as well as Cena's. It's all cash in the pot. You never know who that break out superstar will be. He knows that. He might be out of touch and stubborn. But that nikka aint stupid. He knows hes gonna need new wrestlers. Thats common sense.

Every wrestler tweaked and evolved. Cena says he was a few weeks away from being fired before he changed his gimmick and got hot. So that potential argument is kinda off.

Road Dogg is legend. He started as The Roadie. Became one of the most popular wrestlers in wrestlings hottest era.

Billy Gun was Rockabilly... managed by the Honky Tonk Man.

Kane was the fake Diesel. I could go on and on with these examples.

How long were Jeff and Matt Hardy jobbers?!?! They tweaked, and they evolved. Thats the nature of the business.


in other words,...
it is not supposed to be good, when you reaching for the brass ring.
