I mean nikkas don't come up with that much creative stuff anymore, and reharshing storylines are getting old. Wrestlers get used wrong and end up being " what if". Only thing I look forward to now is them dirt sheets :ld:

you are actually watching the death of quality wrasslin now.

once punk and dbry, and any past roh official guys are gone.
which could happen on some whatever shyt, to any of those guys like hero.

seth rollins : tyler black : the most proven and actual talented out of the shield. that could get lost in the shuffle.
Davey Richards : could clash personality wise and be ousted to the endeavors package
eddie Edwards : could get lost in the shuffle. just because it is the wwe and they have no idea how to use or what talent is.
el generic : sami zayn : could get spike Dudley'd or tazz'd out the shuffle. just because.

so, after that and maybe no tna.
we are watching the end of quality wrasslin domestically.

Pro Wrestling has been around for a long time and it's not going to go away in the forseeable future. Even if Vince dies and the WWE goes out of business 15-20 years from now, doesn't mean Pro Wrestling is done... it has been proven that wrestling can make money, and that assures that someone will always step up to supply for that demand.

One day Austin will be back..probably before he's 50 and Hogan will be back on TV. They'll have another surge for the business. After that? Who knows Cripple H is a cancer to pro wrestling though. That truth is never changing.

Wrestling is only as bad as the fan...

This. Complaining about how something isn't as good as it used to be is like having nostalgia for an age that never existed. If 'wrestling is dying', why did the WWE pump millions of dollars into a Performance Centre? It's an investment in their future. Wrestling, and especially WWE, will be around for years to come, in one form or another. Despite the booking, tv ratings, PPV buyrates and other shyt people like to cry, bytch and moan about, guys like Punk, Bryan, Cena (as much as some will try to deny it), Cesaro, Goldust, The Shield, etc have been killing it recently.

And if you can't enjoy that... :manny:

A lot of these so called fans aren't really fans of wrestling, they are fans of eras, people and time periods. I love wrestling because it is an art form that takes dedication to perfect. All of these guys who tuned out for years or don't watch because they had their feelings hurt are fair weather fans. All of these arm chair bookers and experts are the real poison.



Anybody shytting on Cena, Bryan or Punk for being great are retarded.

It's never going to die. At least the WWE won't. It'll always be around. Will there come a time where I say I'm done with it? Maybe. But it's always going to go on. I've been watching this for 20 years and I've been there for the bad (1995, the HHH 02-05 burial World Tour, the Chris Benoit heel turn of 07, etc.) and I've been there for the good (the nWo, the Attitude era, etc.). I've seen wrestlers debut, flourish, retire, and sadly, in a lot of cases, pass away. It's like nature as it always progresses. I think wrestling will always be there to catch everyone's attention.

Just my two cents.

So that must include the WrestleMania match against The Rock, right?

I think Cena has worked his ass off in matches against the likes of Sandow, Cesaro / Swagger and Del Rio since he came back from injury. But hey... Wrestling is subjective.

Pro Wrestling will never die. WWE will in time, because Vince is the spirit of the company. He built the empire from his own will, where Stephenie & Trips are inheriting the company. Stephenie you can see is not really good enough to be a CEO, like Linda or Vince. She is better off running a HR Department, where Triple H should be head of Talent Relations.

I think WWE has another 7 years on top. In that time, SOMEONE will start a brand and bring the heat to them. Too many good video platforms opening up like Hulu, Netflix, ChromeCast, etc. someone will disrupt the McMahon's.

not gonna happen.

TNA out-classed the wwe for years and at the end of the day, all they have to show for it is baby steps.....and most of those baby steps were taken after they dumbed down the product. and they had a good timeslot. you think people are gonna go out of their way to check something out on Netflix? hell no. I mean, you have people fakin the funk, and proppin up indies(that they know will never be a threat as a company) to make themselves feel like real heads. you know all the wannabe ecw/roh fans that aint really bout it.

that's when I knew wrestling was done. new-aged wrestling "fans" and their product bias. dudes forced themselves to watch the wwe thru its worst years ever, and chose to complain about the bad product, rather than support the better products.

I saw the writing on the wall. I don't even bother with wrestling much anymore.
