    Am I Just Burned Out?

    Dave Melzer has recently said the average age of a WWE fan is around 49 or 50. Put simply the hard core have been watching since Hogan. Hell I am 38 and 1st watched in 1988, I did not watch any wrestling from 1999-2016 though although I followed some of the big stories via the media (Eddie...

    Am I Just Burned Out?

    Well their television rights are up in 2 years or so and on current rating they won't have a great bargaining position. THe brand split was done to boost ratings because of complaints from whatever network they are on. Its possible they lose TV rights on the current track.

    ??? 2000 character "Miss Hancock"

    WCW 2000 is on the network.

    Am I Just Burned Out?

    Well rating are down becau WWE is shit, the other companies are more sports orientated than sports entertainment. As I said if you like that older WWF/E and WCW are your best bets.

    Am I Just Burned Out?

    Vince has no real competition is the problem. Listening to shoot interviews apparently he does not like NXT and Dunn undermines the NXT call ups. Hell Sasha banks has been delegated to trying to save the 205 turkey. Watch 205 live and then the 1st hour of WCW Nitro from 20 yearsa ago and spot...

    Am I Just Burned Out?

    Its not PG, its shit story lines and booking. I am watching the attitude era now (up to WM 16) and most of it could be done on PG. I have also watched some older WWF and WCW matches recently going back to the 80's and its all PG and its good wrestling. NXT, the Cruiserweight Classic and the UK...

    Am I Just Burned Out?

    I have watched a couple of their matches, they were decent enough but I keep hearing about Okada/Omega in Japan. I'm not asking if you like WCPW just is the wrestling/storylines any good. I would watch almost any of them for free to try them out and then would be willing to subscribe or pay...

    Am I Just Burned Out?

    WCPW any good? They are doing a free week.

    Am I Just Burned Out?

    Might actually be worse. New Generation still had Owen/Bret Hart, Razor Ramone, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels and there were some really good events like Wrestlemania X.

    Am I Just Burned Out?

    NXT is still good, old RAW is goods, hell if you have not tried it I have watched a couple of WCW nitros from 1997 and did not hate it. I'll watch something new if there is a free trial or whatever.

    Am I Just Burned Out?

    Yeah RAW is fairly bad and SD is going to shit. I watch NXT and I am getting tempted by New Japan. Ratings are in the shitter as well. Even on the network RAW is still 2 hours 20 mins. I have watched some older PPVs with Wrestlemania just over 3 hours, PG era WWE matches and even some old...

    Did you guys at one point, ever felt bad/sympathy for Lilian Garcia because of what she often...

    She seems to get it rough from the boys so to speak. A shoot interview they were talking about her pubic hair.

    Goldberg teases return.

    Nopes that is more or less it. It was shit, it had the House of Horrors match which I vaguely remember because its shit.

    Goldberg teases return.

    I have the network now, back in t he day I watched it out of order often several years late. I enjoyed Elimination, WM was OK, Payback was a bit of a dud. Options were limited in New Zealand.

    Goldberg teases return.

    I have been watching some WCW matches from late 1997 and Goldberg was on in his 2nd match. Basically just seeing the build towards Stnig/Hogan, WCW at its height and seeing how PG wrestling holds up 20 years later. It was in 1997 when WCW landed here IIRC, had not watched televised wrestling...

    Which of the two WWE wrestlers do you think had a longer reign of terror in WWE history?

    Thats got nothing to do with it lol. HHH has lost more matches at WM for example than he actually won and apparently at his worst was really only bad for 2 years or so.

    REMEMBER THIS................?

    I was 10 when I started watching wrestling. I do have vague memories of shows I watched as a 4 year old but I do not remember plots or anything like that. I remember the Smurfs, the silver Centurions from Battlestar Galactic and the uniforms and actors out of CHiP's.

    Why I THink Samoa Joe Will Beat Brock

    He could be around though just no in the ring. Hogan in 10 years wrestled on free TV 60 times so there is a bit to be siad about a champion appearance meaning something. Hogan would cut promos though and make an appearance.

    Why I THink Samoa Joe Will Beat Brock

    SJ is now the number 1 contender vs Brock. With a rumoured Brock/Reigns WM 34 match it kind of hints at who will win the rumble. But I think Joe will beat Brock. 1. Reigns/Brock at WM 34 may not actually happen. 2. Even if it does you do not need the title involved. 3. Ratings are in the...

    Raw & SmackDown may be pulled from cable TV

    The TV deals are their biggest source of income. Without them they would actually lose money.
