What Happened to Wrestling?

Vince McMahon has destroyed wrestling with his greed.

I used to like it; back when it wasn't so much of a soap opera.  It's more dialog and insults than the actual wrestling and showmanship.

Saw it, and some of the matches came off badly. The HBK vs. McMahons match was a waste of time and a disappointment for fans...the lame pre-match God related stuff Vince did was unnecessary and is turning off the fans. Plus, they didn't let HBK do another dive onto Vince & Shane, which angered the fans further. This feud will culminate at the next Raw PPV with HBK soundly trouncing Vince & Shane, or possibly with Shane's help. \n\nThe main event was a huge disapppointment. Thought sure they'd let HHH take the belt...but don't worry, he will very soon. And it's not just a coincidence that both HHH and HBK are flashing the DX sign. Look for a mini-DX reunion in the future.\n\nThe ladies' title match ran short because Trish hurt herself after Mickie botched a move causing Trish to land hard on her shoulder. If you watch the replay, Trish flashed a sign to the ref, who told Mickie James to end the match by getting DQ'd. You notice that after the fall Mickie didn't grapple Trish hard, she just started "choking" her through the 5 count. I think this was supposed to be a title change... but they will reschedule it for TV or maybe the next PPV. Trish isn't hurt that bad.\n\nThe Matt Striker/Eugene/booger thing was a waste of time but the show was running a bit short so it made a good space filler.\n\nLook for a Kane/Big Show reunion sometime after Kane's movie premieres. This whole current storyline between them is nothing more than hype for the movie.\n\nShelton vs. RVD was good, but I think you should see RVD lose either the belt or the money in the bank contract...he won't keep both. I'm thinking he'll keep the belt and lose the briefcase to either Shelton or perhaps someone else they want to promote. Shelton was getting played out as champ and the whole "Big Mama" storyline was lame...so they killed it by having Shelton's "mom" go in for surgery of some sort. I'll be very surprised if she ever comes back. Shelton's character needs some help...maybe by turning bad guy it will give him some good heat from the fans.\n \nOverall, I'd say it was an entertaining PPV but had many disappointments...definitely not one of WWE's best.

I am a straight guy and I don't like wrestling. Seems kinda gay to me, seriously: sweaty men rolling around grasping each other, getting in between each others legs, not to mention they wear tights. Also, it is not violent, it is so fake like the WWE. The story lines on that show are so freaking cheesy.

I totaly agree with you. I grew up on WWF....this whole WWE with the "modern" way of wrestling is more like a soap opera then sports entertainment. I watch the pay per views on occasion but I rarely tune in to the weekly stuff anymore ... just not worth the headache and diminished IQ points.

He is not wrestling as of now. He was dropped by the WWE.\nread on. . . . . . \n\nMarty Jannetty claimed the reason he was dropped was because he wasn't allowed for parole reasons to travel to Alabama on Monday and thus WWE had to drop him from a continuing storyline, and that WWE is trying to help him clear it up so he can return. He was also critical of what was reported (on the internet). He (Meltzer) was given the info from somone in the WWE current inner circle that Jannetty being gone was not a work, along with the specifics already reported, as well as that creative was told to proceed as if he was gone, erase him from the already written TV and that he would never be used again. Of course in wrestling, you know what "never" means.

Yea  I think they are losing the creative edge.  The whole Wcw Vs. WWE confrontation should have lasted years!  YOu had so much talent and so many diferent characters and combonations coming together, it was a fans dream!  But so many people were let go nothing happened.  But of course there were a lot of people who refused to go back to work with Mr McMahon.\n\nthe Ecw/ Wcw Vs WWE was a great addition  and it continues today..  at least as far as ECW goes..  I am glad that ECW and WWE are somewhat intertwining their matches.\n\nNow WWE is talking with people from "Pride"  That is Japan's version of UFC or Ultimate fighting championships. I dont know..  When they had Ken Shamrock in thier roster.. I didnt like it.  Shamrock was one: being held back in terms of his skills, and two: his character was kinda lost in limbo.. They really didnt know what to do with him and he really didnt have much chemistry with the other wrestlers to perform a really good match.\n\nI liked the return of DX.  If they can somehow get the new age outlaws back  that would be awesome!  \n\nI love Eddie Guerrero, but let the man Rest in peace.  It's kinda sad that they keep bringing up his name in this way. I will never forget Eddie, and WWE has promised to always remember him.. but not to go into a "He didnt love you cause you're not a Geurrero" story line.  I think that is bad taste.\n\nIs WWE losing it?  Yea...  one more example...  Survior series..  COME ON...  your bringing out , Ric Flair, Dusty Rhodes, Sgt Slaughter and ( it was Piper) now Ron Simmons?  Dont get me wrong, I love to see these guys get in there and whupp Spirit squad a new one, but I mean...  talk about re living your glory days. \n\nOn the last Raw, Dusty Rhodes got back in the ring to take on one of the Spirit squad and he performed like 5 or six moves .  Dusty was Sweating and out of breath!  I thought he was going to have a heart attack right on TV!\n\nYes, WWE is losing it.

WWE hasn't been the same since The Rock and Stone Cold stopped wrestling.

Wrestling has long been stupid, I find.  There is no element of a real contest, the "characters" are completely outrageous, and it has become such a soap opera that there's a phone number you can call to find out what happened on wrestling.  I would have wanted to see an actual contest, not the idiotic stuff on pay per view!  Don't get me wrong, I like Sumo, but at least winning yokozuna in Japanese sumo has some element of athletic prowress, unlike a match that's all about the trash talk.

I agree it totally sucks...they should take it back to the old school way, 1 Championship belt, 1 Intercontinental belt, 1 tag team belt. And make it about heroes, not just whores and fags

There's a new ECW? joking\n\nThere are rumors that the name will change.  It seems dumb people can't figure out that ECW is owned by WWE.

Until recently it was WWE because of the Superior graphics and roster, now all of the older wrestlers are leaving either cos there injured or because they haven't been given any real title chances. Vince has concentrated on the wrestlers he already had rather than bringing in new talent. John Cena was a panic buy, lets face it the only reason he was brought in so fast was because the story lines where getting stale. TNA is now the best place to watch true wrestling talent and anyone who doesn't think so needs to watch The Bound For Glory pay per view line up. There wrestlers are allowed to create new moves and be daring which is far more entertaining than watching an overly muscular wrestler from the WWE fight another overly muscular wrestler. TNA build up story lines and keep them going.\n\nI have to say after been a fan of WWE for over 10 years i am disappointed with their latest offerings.

the main problem with wwe is that they are now a main-stream business. this is a money-making machine so as long as people are coming to the shows, buying the t-shirts and the likes then vince is a happy man cos hes getting richer. the other problem that faces wwe is that they pushed the boundaries so far during the 90's and the start of the 00's that there is hardly anywhere else for them to go, can you think of anything that we havent seen on wwe (i know that somethings have been good and some have been very bad)
