Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

wrestling sucks right now. fix it.

post your solutions below.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

make every single match the royal rumble. done.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

the draft sucked now i have to watch smackdown b/c the good wrestlers are there now

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

Multiple, competitive federations.

Bring back hardcore.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

stop all the run ins after basically every match.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

Bring back the Ultimate Warrior.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

Eliminate marriage story lines. I also heartily agree with eliminating the seemingly endless succession of run ins.

Hopefully another federation in the mold of the ECW will rise to the top. I have a feeling that a federation like this would attract a lot of us who used to be big wrestling fans but are unimpressed at best with the current wrestlecrap being perpetrated on us. But I have no idea how to make this happed. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Wanna start up an OOT Wrestling Federation with me? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I am going to assume for your sake that this is a joke.

The draft [censored] sucks.

To make Wrestling better you need TNA to be better funded so it can actually compete with WWE.

I think the entire love story/triagle gambit has run its course and should be put on ice for the 25 years.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

never again should a ref be bumped into and be "knocked out"

Yeah. The draft was perfectly executed until they took Christian. I was content to never watch SD again.

I don't think it sucks. Had you posed this in January I would have agreed, but it's certainly better now than it has been at any point in the past few years.

we need a mulitple personality guy like cactus jack, bang bang was the greatest...nobody bled like that bastard.

I'm watching their latest on real player right now. They seem to have gone on long in cleaning up some of their suckiness by getting rid of that fast ass, no talent, POS, ass clown Dusty Rhodes and putting the belt on Raven (only 2 years to late). Although I am still hearing that dumb ass, no talent, POS, ass clown Don West so they still have a ways to go.

Somehow those two did manage to have a great match. But seriously, Warrior is insane.

it looks like TNA is gonna go with Spike when the WWF(sorry, will never call it WWE) goes back to USA. Everyone here owes it to themselves to check out Ring Of Honor, it maybe a bit too indy at times, but those guys go out there and bust their asses. Also who watches Japanese Puro, I'd love to see NOAH and All Japan reunite since Mrs. Baba has no involvement anymore with AJPW

Also he sucks. Anyone see his last run in WCW?

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

Yeah, I was at the monday nitro when he came back. It was sweet.

It was kind of cool that first night. Then we all realized that he sucks, he's always sucked, and he had since lost his mind.

do yourself a big favor and get the Ric Flair DVD and watch the 2/3 falls steamboat match from Clash6. The entire trilogy from 89 is some of the best american wrestling ever. You also need to check out the Magnum TA/ TUlly BLanchard I quit match. Once you check those matches out, you will never want to watch a Hogan match ever again. Oh, if you think the WMVI was good between those two then you really need to check out some Japanese Puro matches, makes those two dolts look like rookies

Which one? I heard rumors that a few (up to 10? played him).

The Hogan vs Warrior match was definately a favorite of mine too. Ohh, the good old days.

I tried watching the 'new era' of Wrestling, and I don't care to follow it. Maybe something will happen in the next few years to bring some integrity back to the sport.

Dude, he wants the Ultimate freaking Warrior to come back! There is no way could ever appreciate any of that.

Who would you challenge to a nightstick on a pole match?

Yes get rid of that crap and other similar crap as well. Thanks for reminding me.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

I don't know I haven't watched wrestlingin a while. (not since Triple H simulated sex with a dead corpse) I don't feel much like getting back into it.

I guess I was the only Ultimate Warrior fan.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

I assume you prefer solid in-ring action over the entertainment aspects. Can I inquire about a time and place when you really liked the product?

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

yeah, wayyyy too many gimmick matches. also, vince needs to stop it with the stupid triple threat match, three way dance baby

one could wish that a ultimate idiot fan could be transformed into a Kenta Kobashi fan [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

This truly was the worst moment ever. Even worse than the Bossman HIAC matches. It's taken them a long time to recover from dumb [censored] like that.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

And it looks like Samoa Joe is gonna get a big push. for those of you who haven't seen Joe, he is damn good

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

I am a big fan of 90s AJPW. I've always been a big fan. WHen I was a kid in chicago I was a bigger fan of crockett wrestling than Vince style wrestling. To me Flair was the be all end all. I never like Hogan. Flair just seemed cool and, to me, was larger than life. I stopped watching a little after Vader got depushed in WCW(late 93) but started watching again after Bash at the Beach 96, and really got back in 97. WWF was good wrestling in 97 and so was WCW, unfortunetly 98 arrived and the entertainment aspect really took over. I have always preferred in ring guys and always will. I think that's why I took to Japan Puro the way I did

[/ QUOTE ]

Actually I demand both. I want a good in ring match accentuated with a good out of ring story.

I'm not sure. I liked what they did with Brock Lesnar when he first showed up as an example.

I would in general say that unless the WWE is moving to HBO the sex & wrestling has played it self out.

Re: Wrestling fans and former fans only.
 

We need more clean matches. in fact, I'd like to see nothing but clean finishes for 6 months in the WWF and I can garuntee you that the non smart fans wouldn't even notice and would enjoy the product just as much
