    WCW should've won the war!

    WCW died because of WCW, it was always a money pit made money for 2 years (late 96-mid 98 IIRC). It was always reliant on Teds money, he lot control of his company and had things like executives who did care aout losing money. And they drove their own fans away. The wrestling thing was also...

    Mishandled legends

    Back then retirement was generally around 40 hell. His was before WWF used part timers much and protected legends into their 40's and 50's. Its your body clock, Cena for example is around 40 and is winding down. Wrestling after 45 full time is rare still even now. Back then you would not get a...

    Alexa bliss the true savior of the women's division?

    She has the performance part down pat.

    Alexa Bliss as Women's Champion

    Well yeah the gimmick may have played out, it was better as a heel though IMHO.

    Alexa Bliss as Women's Champion

    Sasha neds a heel turn lol. Most of them lack mic skills is the problem. Alexis, and Charlotte sand out.

    Rate NXT Takeover Chicago

    Ciampa and Gargano are doping a tilogy, old school style fairly predictable who would win that match. Sullivan is green as, got carried a bit but played his part well IMHO. He is better than say Big Cass already with less experience.

    RIP Vader

    Back in the day I did not have acces to RAW just watched the tapes. When I first heard of Vader I thought kewl they gave a Darth Vader gimmick to someone. And then they fed him to Shawn Michael's who I liked in 1996 (well him and Bret). I did not really know about his WCW work, or the back...

    Alexa Bliss as Women's Champion

    Pity around half the horsewomen don't have that charisma thing going on and Alexa is not embarrassing in the ring (unlike Nia, Mandy Rose, Sonya etc). Probably better on the mic than Charlotte. Beats me what they're doing with Sasha though. Bailey and Becky have basically been ruined. Alexa...

    Big Cass Gone...

    I read the other reaosns but this is a big one. Can't put your hands on a lady and get away with it (me to, bad publicity etc). Carmella is a main eventer in the women's division. Combined with everything else.

    WWE Stock are at an all time high

    An extra 400 million dollars this year with Smackdown+ Saudi Arabia with another 200 million per year for the next 4 years after that and I assume RAW will be shipped out at a similar price (or superior). They might actually break a billion in revenue this year, that is something like 8 times...

    Rate NXT Takeover Chicago

    Weakest Takeover for a long time and it was still good. Not a Gargano fan but I bought into that match, I ould give it 4.5 or 5 stars. The title match was better than I though was not expecting to much. Dream and Ricochet was also very good. Seemed like a fast even as well.

    Can you name other wrestlers who look good physically and can wrestle but suck on the microphone ?

    Yeah 205 Neville segments were great even his ring psychology was entertaining he would set up for a red arrow and then refuse to do it trolling the audience (as a heel). He only busted it out for big matches. The red arrow was probably the best finisher in WWE. Neville with Miz was basically...

    Chris Benoit wasn't solely responsible for the PG Era

    I would also argue what made the AE era so great was the story teling and Austin/Rock most of the AE classic bits could be done with PG rating now. Most of the great wrestling moments are actually PG anyway and a lot of the edgy bits of the AE I don't want to see anyway like Foley taking 10 or...

    Can you name other wrestlers who look good physically and can wrestle but suck on the microphone ?

    Neville on 205 was brilliant, they made him a heel. Since Triple H took over 205 Live I think a random episode of 205 Live is better than RAW. Smackdown has been decent since WM, RAW is the dribbling shits atm. Best to worst IMHO right now NXT Smackdown 205 Live RAW In February I may have...

    Can you name other wrestlers who look good physically and can wrestle but suck on the microphone ?

    I liked Neville as a heel on 205 on the mic. Most of the names yeah not great. Mic work is more imortant than in ring skill now (Elias, Alexa come to mind but they are alright in the ring)

    Could I get over in the WWE if I'm a good actor ?

    If you are a good actor, you are not in the WWE lol.

    Vince McMahon Okay with Jericho in NJPW?

    Vince doesnt own Chris.

    How often do you watch WWE shows?

    NXT every week, Smackdown most weeks, RAW 50/50, sometimes watch 205 live which I enjoyed earlier in the year. Slowly watching RAW attitude era. Up to June 2000. The best parts are great but NXT I think is more consistent and is the better show.

    Are WWE fans aware there's more to the schedule than just RAW, Smackdown and pay per views ?

    Its roughly the equivalent of working 6 days a week without regular hours and always travelling. No wonder some of them like Japan/NXT/Indies/Impact or have the leverage to get a part time deal. That schedule though may be more dangerous than the "high risk" New Japan style. Think I would...

    John Cena's Net Worth

    Biggest year will probably be now. 200 million for GRR, another billion over 5 years for Smackdown.
