Introducing the Worked-Shoot Era of WWE

[DallasGirl50]

Kane was trained by Taker...and has been passed over for years for belts...just like Mark. While Cena is rarely a month without a belt. I whine about it more than either of them. They are both absolute pros!

 

[DallasGirl50]

If they'd ever let him go back to be the goofy heel, like he once was in WWE, then he could be big in the performance area too. Kurt is golden on the mic and can be downright funny.

Kurt is a funny guy..I use to not like him. Dumb me...the guy is flat out great.

It's honestly why I do believe that both would make the Hall of Fame (I mean Taker is a given with the huge matches, feuds, his iconic character, and THE STREAK!!!!!) even without more than a couple championship reigns.

They're simply just that good. Sort of like Rick Rude and Curt Henning were without ever being the heavyweight Champion. They were still just that dang good at their jobs, and their roles in the company.

Professionals. The world needs more guys like this.

Kurt is a funny guy..I use to not like him. Dumb me...the guy is flat out great.

I hear ya. I have plenty of friends who hated him at first but quickly came around because of how dang funny he was. I was a fan from the start. I just loved the goofy, silly, over the top way he was a heel and would go on and on about his Gold Medals. Kurt Angle is a top 10 wrestler, all time, in my book. The guy is amazing.

 

[DallasGirl50]

Even with all his personal issues Angle is still a great wrestler...I was just ding dong dumb about him...he rubbed me the wrong way at first . He is definitely an all time great & to me when he left WWE they lost alot. Heck Kurt is just a great athlete period.

Steve Austin Says ‘Tough Enough’ Is Returning, Comments On CM Punk

http://wrestleheat.com/steve-austin-tough-enough-returning-comments-cm-punk=11027

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Ehhh I'll probably watch it. I watched TE earlier this year and it was pretty good. Having Steve on the show made it a lot more enjoyable and I certainly enjoyed the guest appearances by other guys, especially The Rock and Cena.

Another month another Cena PPV main event, the whole Punk/Nash thing is just a way to get Punk out of the title picture so they can keep showing Cena down our throats.

The more things change the more they stay the same

I really think it's more to set up Punk vs. HHH which doesn't need to be revolving around the title, and quite frankly, shouldn't have the title involved in it.

That's one of those feuds that will be amazing without the use of the title as a prop in it. I like the idea of Punk vs. HHH.

Not so much about the title as it is Cena who's one of the worst in ring performers in the WWE in every main even, is it to much to ask that they mix it up a little? Cena in the main event is pretty much a guarantee it's going to suck unless it's against Punk who can make anyone even Cena look good

I could not disagree more.

If you've seen one Cena match you've seen them all, enjoy your
five knuckle shuffles :laugh1:

Every famous wrestler is that way.

Stone Cold, The Rock, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, The Undertaker, Ric Flair, and yes even Punk.


You do not like Cena ...... I get it.

 

[DallasGirl50]

I've grown use to Cena rarely being a month without a belt...it has been that way for a long time so I just FF over his matches. He has always been lame to me. I think HHH/Punk has the potential to be very good IF that is what will happen. Punk looks like a little kid up against Nash...he towered over HHH too. I thought that was kind of funny...Punk was funny there talking about Stephanie.

Cena falls into the Hulk Hogan/Ultimate Warrior category

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Whats unfortunate is that it's the gimmick and the WWE style that has made people think Cena can't work a good match. Much like back when Austin was doing nothing but punching, kicking, Lou Thesz (I know I spelled this wrong) Press, Stunner and would have people always saying "Steve Austin can't work a good match. He only does 5 moves!!!".

THe truth is that Cena, when given a green light, can actually do quite well in the ring. It's a shame he gets hamstrung by the way they limit him.

Cena falls into the Hulk Hogan/Ultimate Warrior category

That's one of the more insulting things I've ever seen said about Cena. I'm not huge Cena fan, by any means, but I've seen the guy work and I know, for sure, he's light years ahead of Hogan and Warrior in the ring.

He's just not allowed to show it in the WWE.

Cena falls into the Hulk Hogan/Ultimate Warrior category

Yea ....... ok.

Its official ..... you have no clue.

 

[DallasGirl50]

John is a hard worker..and I've seen many guys that aren't the caliber of wrestler he is. That being said MANY guys have been passed over for belts while he never has. Not his fault but a fan is gonna hate on the wrestler & not the writers who they never see. His gimmick is boring. One dimensional. I get why he's popular with kids. I'm not a kid though so he bores me to tears. He knows all this & plays up to the haters. But he is a hard worker...
