Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
There really was an air of unpredictability back then that can never be duplicated in the environment we're currently in. I read recently that Cena wants blood and profanity back in wrestling again. I've long been an advocate of bringing back blood for the big matches. (HIAC, Elimination Chamber, bringing back first blood matches and maybe even for last man standing matches) I'm not nearly as receptive to the idea of bringing back profanity especially since the majority of talent today are scripted in their promos though there are exceptions. (You can't tell me New Day have scripted promos) It will sound stilted and adding profanity just to get a rise out of fans would look rather transparent though the guys who've been on the stick for a long time and aren't scripted could work it in pretty well.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

I am also tired with the first name last name gimmicks and the one name gimmick.
More Undertakers and Warriors and less Seth Rollins and Cesaro's or you could give more nicknames aka "Natural" Dustin Rhodes.Last edited by PeoplesChampGB; 05-01-2016, 01:47 PM.NFL- Green Bay Packers

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
Nah man, it's not just that. That crowd wasn't just filled with teenagers. WWE was just legit exciting and must-see-TV back then, hence why it was pulling ratings over the 5-6.0 range and now it's barely in the 2.0 range.Comment

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
When you're starting in 02/03 yea not really enough. I am going through Evolution's run on Raw right now. Which if you go by Wikipedia started at Unforgiven '02. It will take me a couple of months to get through that. Especially now that I am done with school.Comment

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
I'm not watching every minute of every show/PPV either, that's why I'm flying thru them.#RespectTheCultureComment

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
I actually am and I am still plowing through them. I usually watch an episode or 2 per night. But when I'm done with school I will be able to go through a month's worth in a day or so. The shows usually last around 1.5 hours for the Raws and SD. But the PPVs are like 2.5 hours.Comment

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
If I see a garbage or boring segment/promo, I skip over that. The hell I wanna sit thru that for when I already do that with the current product? Lol#RespectTheCultureComment
