Wrestling careers can end and future headliners can turn to journeymen in a split second and at any time. Get an injury, pick up a bad habit, gimmick goes out of fashion or you just get yourself cancelled somehow... there's a thousand ways someone might not be the same prospect in 6 months, let alone a couple decades.

If a guy has It now it's a promoters responsibility to use it. Now.

Ya’ll gotta stop comparing everyone to Breakker lol

A guy like Oba Femi is gonna make it to the main event quicker than a guy like Rey Fenix every time, and we know the reason why.

Breh, I like Bron Breakker but when he came up to the main roster I noticed that he's about 5'10" in real life. Far from a brolic monster. Trick Williams would dwarf him

I believe you do lol

and I’m not disputing that, I’m just saying comparing everyone’s push to Breakker’s is kinda ridiculous. He’s not the tallest, but he’s a freak of nature and moves fukking insane. We KNOW he’s getting hot shot because of that. Everyone’s trajectory isn’t going to be his. Most people’s aren’t.


Jacob Fatu is in a similar situation. He’s not that tall.. not even that big.. but he has a different type of presence than someone like.. let’s say Ricky Starks. It would be pretty fukkin retarded to expect them to be pushed and used the same way


The super jacked menacing presence is always going to handled much different than the skinny high flyer.

I agree with you on how they typically book someone of Young OG's size but Montez Ford is built and he's 6'1" and he can talk and he has a star presence, Trick Williams is a big guy and can talk, Oba is a monster and can talk. Something gotta happen soon for them if you ask me :pachaha:

I don’t think it’s gonna happen for Montez as a singles guy at this point as much as we all want it to.

Trick will get that push and so will Oba IMO but if yall still waiting for Montez, you might as well wrap it up. Hes stuck where he’s at and is better off leaving the company if he even cares about shyt like wrestling in main events. I feel like that about a number of people in WWE. Finn is another. Can't see it happening for Grayson either. these are people who IMO have hit their ceiling in WWE and wont go much higher

He's basically saying he can get booked like a chump for 15 years and get a "he's been here forever and is a hard worker" run like Kofi :hhh:

when it comes to wrestling, why are the only options jobber or world champion? lol I'll never understand the idea that anyone who isn't booked like prime Roman Reigns is a failure.

by your definition Sami Zayn who has been a mainstay on WWE tv for a decade and is very easily a shoe in for the hall of fame, has been booked like a chump.


this multi time world champion or failed career mindset nikkas have with wrestlers will never not be crazy. that's not nuts to yall?


I still want Evans to be a multi champ tho, just on some fan shyt. he my favorite nikka right now :hubie:

It’s new right?

When I was growing up I always wanted my favorites to be champion as a fan but I never thought lesser of guys like Jericho or RVD, or even tag guys like the Dudley’s who weren’t lol.. it was obvious to me what they contributed to the product


I feel like these days nikkas will tell you with a straight face that fukkin Drew McIntyre is misused and being fumbled specifically because he’s not world champ.. like, excuse me?

You're projecting. There's nothing wrong with being a mid carder because not everyone has IT, but it's clear Je'Von has the IT factor. Why should he have to sit around and wait 15 years to get a run? You strike while the iron is hot.

You also picked the worst example because Sami should've been champion by now. He was the best babyface in wrestling at one point. They missed his opportunity. Sami will get a world title run at the tail end of his career and people will call it a feel good moment. He deserves better and so do we as fans.

Some older people live in a false reality where people don't get disabled, accidents don't happen, and death waits until you're ready. It's either that or they refuse to admit the truth about death.

It's wild. I've heard this opinion a few times "you have time" "no need to rush" It's delusion. It's not even about rushing, it's about not wasting time because time waits for no man.

I had plenty of time with my father (R.I.P) and I still want more time, because I stupidly thought it would last.

As I get older I start to realize that some older people just got old, but that's not the same as wise, and it doesn't mean they know everything.

I've noticed a pattern with some older people. They always seem to think you have time. Trust me, you do not. Life doesn't work that way. Plenty of people are in the graveyard or injured now who thought they had time.

You never know what will happen.

Ask Tyson Kidd, Jesse Sorenson, Chris Bey, etc.

Ask the families of Owen Hart, Bray Wyatt, Eddie Guerrero, etc.

Life doesn't care about your schedule.
One thing anyone has noticed...old or not.. is favoritism. Gunther...Rhea who is like 29 and they got her winning almost every year at Mania...Stratton is 25 with a plastic MAGA look and they kept her undefeated all year until the Vaquer loss.
