Imagine if Sammartino, Backlund, Hogan, Savage and Warrior showed up to dominate WM17

[BodeineBrazy]

New Day could have won the match... Gotten beat down and had the same moment. Old guys come out... Beat up LON. And Xavier and crew drink brews with Stone Cold.

The WAY they did it, made everybody look like chumps.

Just proved HBGOAT more over then anyone on the active roster, let the GOAT cook

 

[James Dean]

Yall mad

I don't mind legends appearing, but it should be used to get current guys over

 

[John Reena]

Not gonna front, Punk was right about the E's use of part timers. BUT, at the end of the day, it's a business and you gotta put asses in seats.....so it is what is.

 

[BodeineBrazy]

Because that's pretty much the equivalent of what we saw tonight

You shoulda got 100 daps for this btw

I was there. This wrestlemania would have been shyt without the legends. Best parts of the show. Loudest pops of the show. With all these injuries, they had to do that.

They can't showcase the legends without doing it at the expense of the current talent?

Law of diminishing returns. When the main guys always put over the old guys who show up just a few times a year, fewer and fewer people tune in to see it.

 

[Kill Dat Noize]

There are ppl who only watch wrestling one time a year and last night was it, and now they have no incentive to watch any other days of the year because it's established that all of the current guys are scrubs.

 

[James Dean]

A lot of you guys overrate how much this matters.

When at the end of the day the fault lies in the booking which is the bigger problem. WWE could have had current guys go over old timers all day long but it they drop the ball Post that, which they do. It wouldn't even matter.

Yall need to let these one off segments live and stop overanalyzing.

People who only watch once a year are going to do just that. You cant just magically sway their mind. A current guy going over an old guy isn't going to just make people want to watch full time.

It will if the match or promo is booked well but they don't have the capability to do that.

last years mania and 30 wer3 MUCH better than this years. what they did to the much hyped deabn/lesnar matchw as a travesty. match was literallty .. german german german kendo stick shot by dean, german german german charis by dean, german german f5 win. fukk outta here

the shane match.. the fact were HYPED for shane to be in the semi main event says it all

 

[James Dean]

Which proves my point. It goes beyond just one little part timer vs full timer segment. Its a bigger issue with WWE booking.
