AAP and Nature Boy..we need a plan to fix..

[i-Supplements]

the world of Pro Wrestling. Maybe we should start up our own promotion first off. Vinnie Mac needs some competition. We definetely need to go back to old school ways.
First off let's go back to time limits.
Next, let's bring back a TV title which gets defended every week.
Fueds lasting longer than a month.
We have to bring back the foreign object. When I was a kid and the heel would break out a foreign object, that was such a big deal. Abdullah was the king of the hiding something to bloody his opponent up. I loved him.
Along with the foreign object, the ref needs to start checking the wrestlers before the bell rings to see if they are hiding any type of object on them.
NO DIVAS!!!!!
This is a start.

 

[the nature boy]

4 PPV a year. 5 matches per hour, minimum, per televised show.

 

[i-Supplements]

That would be good. That would give time for fueds to build and make the fans want to seethe PPV. Defenitely the matches need to go longer. Low card matches are 15 minute time limits. Main events are 30-60 minutes. Flair in the day would always wrestle 20 plus minutes on any main event. These turds now can't hardly make it 10. Very few have Flair's type of stamina in his day.

 

[AAP]

Long title reigns.

No more shitty ass storylines. No marriages, no pregnacies, no girlfriend angles, none of that WWE shit.

Cut down on the number of "run ins".

Get tougher referees. Seems like every night at least 4 are knocked out. We need to clone good ol' Nick Patrick.

Bring back the piledriver.

Do away with the steel chair. Used to be when you hit someone with one, they were out for two months. What I hate now is during a match where one guy has had the shit beat out of him, he gets hit with a steel chair... the referee counts 1....2..... he lifts his shoulder. Of course, if he were out doing an interview and had not even wrestled one minute and got hit, he would be out cold. WTF?

Bring back legitimate villians. I'm sorry, Big Show only makes me laugh when he is trying to look evil and leering. Nikita Koloff, Sid Vicious, Abdullah, Jake the Snake... now those were villians.

Stop announcing "run ins" with playing the interfering wrestler's entrance theme first.

bring back REAL tag teams. not just two guys thrown together. Recreate the Powers of Pain.. two hugely buff powerhouses.

Get real cage matches. None of this climb out of the ring shit.

Let managers use roll of quarters again.

 

[i-Supplements]

Speaking of villans, remeber Kevin Sullivan and Marl Lewin. They were plain fucking evil. I think the Missing Link was in the group as well.

Long title reigns were great. That would at least give the title holder more credibility to the title and as a champion.


The Tag scene has been horrible for years. I agee, we need teams like The Road warriors, The Skyscrapers, Doom, now they were some great teams. Nothing like that now. Hell even Brad Armstrong and Tim Horner were more of a formitable team than teams today.

I would like to see more gimmick matches. Barbed wire matches, bullrope matches, lights out matches, come as you are street fights, but only one per PPV.

We need good managers again too. Like JJ Dillon or Bobby Heenan or the likes of even Skandar Akbar.

 

[the nature boy]

bring back the texas strap match.

As AAP said, what's with playing entrance themes when run in's happen? Music makes something that seems unplanned, planned. Although every now and then it's cool to hear the Stone Cold entrance music unexpectedly.

Also, make finishing moves actually finish people.

Finally, they need to stop with the impromptu tag matches at the end of each show, pitting guy who hate each other on the same tag team.

Since I haven't seen WWE in months (so my recommendations might be outdated) make the Dudleys heels and make Jericho a heel (and get rid of his into music). And get rid of Paul Hayman. And bring back the Cat as a manager.

 

[AAP]

The best entertainers are gone... The Cat, Screamin Norman Smiley, Vampiro, La Parka, Disco Inferno, Johnny B Badd, etc...

Stop giving pushes to lackluster stars. I'm sorry but Edge has nothing going for him since he went solo. Neither has Matt Hardy. HHH is nothing but a fat sack of skin.

 

[i-Supplements]

The Cat was great. I loved how he would verbally slam people in the crowd.
Smiley=The BIG WIGGLE...CLASSIC.

Speaking of pushes...Snitsky???

 

[i-Supplements]

if we bring back the Texas strap match, we definetely have to bring back the Russian chain match.

 

[the nature boy]

The Cat was great. I loved how he would verbally slam people in the crowd.
Smiley=The BIG WIGGLE...CLASSIC.

Speaking of pushes...Snitsky???

"Hey you fat boy! You with the cowboy hat that's to small for your big fat head!! Don't make me whoop you son!!"

"Somebody call my mamma, I'm gonna whoop somebody!!"

My favorite bit with the Cat was when he'd challenge anyone in the back to a match, and if he lost, he would say that he'd never return to that town again. Then of course Scott "Flash" Norton would come out and beat the crap out of him.

 

[i-Supplements]

Good stuff. Norton would just annihalate Smiley every time. Did'nt Smiley beat Norton once?

 

[i-Supplements]

I can't believe it stayed on the chat board as long as it did.

 

[AAP]

"3 time.... 3 time... the greatest of them all... " The Cat had the greatest interviews out there second only to Ric Flair. Arn Anderson was third.

I think any wrestler out there that has ever lost a match to Vince, Shane, Eric, Coach, Zach Gowin, Spike Dudley, Xpac or Michael Cole should never be allowed to lace up the boots again.

One of the biggest travesty in wrestling history was the entire year+ that Sting hid up in the rafters all night. What a douchebag. Then when he did wrestle, he wore that fucking body suit so you couldn't see how horribly his physique deteriorated.

Remember how Tully Blanchard used to load his elbow pad to knock them out? Classic. Hell now days, all foreign objects are hidden under the ring. Don't you think if I were going to face HHH, I would get there early enough to wait him out and after he hid that sledgehammer under there, go remove it?

I think Kevin Von Erich was the last of the barefoot wrestlers... I never got that entire thing anyway. WTF was it suppose to be about?

Instead of the next WWE pay per view, I want to see the airplane footage for that Trip To Hell that they had coming back from overseas.... the infamous flight that had Ric Flair walking up and down the aisle wearing nothing but his boots and telling flight attendents to "touch The Man"... Where Brock Lesnar and Curt Henning got in a fist fight in the aisle, Scott Hall having intercourse in the back of the plane, where a flight attendent charged Golddust with imprisonment because he kept her cornered in an empty seat licking her face, where a group of wrestlers got together and cut off Michael Hayes trade mark pony tail while he slept. Shit, I would pay money to see all this.

 

[i-Supplements]

Ahhh, The Infamous Trip From Hell. I'm withyou AAP, I would pay good money to see what really happened on that flight.

I hated that Sting angle as well. Freakin' stupid. We need angles again with the likes of Mr. WrsetlingII, never breaking the rules. He had that devastating knee lift too. i loved it when his protege Jake Roberts turned on him. Good stuff.
I think the internet has pretty much killed wrestling along with Vinnie Mac. There are hardly any surprises these days. It was always huge when tag partners would turn on one another, or when when arch enemies would all of the sudden fight side by side(Flair.Steamboat). Heel and face turns used to be huge, now we all know before they happen.

 

[zxe003]

The best entertainers are gone... The Cat, Screamin Norman Smiley.

...........YESSSSS!!

 

[SanFrancisco]

more accidental nudity

 

[gymrat]

More gimmik wrestlers like the Hurricane (killer bees etc).

 

[DDYSMGMT]

More gimmik wrestlers like the Hurricane (killer bees etc).

I think a hell of a lot less gimmik wrestling. I find it insulting. Gimmiks and stupid non wrestling related plots like babys, weddings, superhero training are killing wrestling. The way they are killing it is that the more we have to see of that the less actual wrestling we see. What happened to the day when two guys would kick the shit out of each other like say Rick Flair and Dusty, they both talk for a little before or after to the whole crowd it is not pretaped they do it live so you can feel the excitement of the moment in it. The crowds would react to seeing the wrestlers and seeing the live performance. Most of the backing of the plot would be how Flair and the Horsemen broke Dusty's leg or nikita's arm. Shit hate to say it but the NWO even did it right. They always talked in front of the live crowd they never really taped anything, and the wrestling world did love them for a while.

I have a work nights and do not get to see any wrestling when the show is actually on it is always the next day with my DVR. I always fast forward through the pretaped interviews they do nothing but give announcers you never get to see in the form of interviewers. McMahon should save the money by cutting out the interviewing jobs and the boredom of the segments. Let them come to the ring and cut their promo at least do that if your not going to actually show us matches.
