For those who want to see who I like, here you go MAAAN: A.J.

You think if WCW would of pushed the younger talented wrestlers on the roster would they still be around today?
The Undertaker wrestled in WCW in 1989 for about 1 year on September 1, 1990 WCW had decided not to renew his contract he wrestled under the name "Mean Mark" Callous and he was part of the tall buildings tag team with his partner Dan Spivey in October 1990 he signed with the WWF and the rest is history he along with Mick Foley and Steve Austin became legends in WWE.
Why IWC always blaming wrestlers to ruining pro wrestling?+BQ?
They'll say John Cena, Hulk Hogan, The Rock and more others. I'd thought pro wrestling was dead for years. We'd never get something from the promoters because The wrestling fans always complaining, bitching and moaning. Man, This is your fault John Cena, Hulk Hogan and The Rock. Are you guys had killed pro wrestling? They should have blame on the booking and promoters. We have the legends back because IWC wanted them to comeback. you got your wish that, Undertaker had returned last night. How Wwe are supposed to build new stars that, They'd never get reaction from the crowd ?The dead crowd always dead since, It was pg era again around 2008. I'll say Charisma and mic skills always been important their wrestling skills. John Cena is only biggest draw in wwe. All the young talent are on nxt. I wish people just enjoyed the show besides complaining. BQ Do You think people are lying to say They'll stop watching wrestling until their favorite wrestler had leave the wrestling business for good? Examples Undertaker, Cm Punk, The Rock, John Cena and more others. I know They would still keep watching wrestling.
Would a World Championship wrestling roster split have worked?
It doesn't really work in WWE so my answer would be noWWE did the Raw vs SmackDown brand split kinda reminiscent of the Monday night Wars from back in the 80’s & 90’s with the “”Attitude Era. But its watered down both programs so much that I find it hard to keep my interest. Triple H and Stephanie have gotten way ahead of themselves in some ways. They don't need to compete anymore with other brands. ROH, impact wrestling, TNA are all miserable failures and pose no threat to the WWE kingdom.The only real problem WWE has is keeping it's top named superstars in the ring. Injuries and other career moves have depleted their roster to the point of boredom. John Cena has become a part time wrestler at best. CM Punk is gone from sight. Legends like Dusty Rhodes, Roddy Piper and many others are all dead. Ric Flair has one foot in the grave. Hulk Hogan has been exiled to the island of “To never be heard from again” for his racist rant involving his daughter Brooke. Countless other big named legends are all gone, retired or dead. And the shelflife of the average WWE superstars is far less than that of the old schoolers who hung around far too long. Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Edge, Bret Hart, etc are all gone and the new guard of wrestlers don't seem to have the longevity of their predecessors.I believe that in my lifetime, and I'm now 58 yrs old, WWE and all of professional wrestling will be a thing of the past.WCW never could have survived a roster split. They never had the sized roster to do it. And btw….wrestling commentary is absolutely attrocious. Guys like Jim Ross, Jesse Ventura, Bobby Heenan, Tony Schiavone, Jim Cornette and a slew of others….oh and I can't forget Gordon Solie, are all dinosaurs the likes of which will never be seen again. Which makes it even harder towatch a watered down roster try to hold ones attention. Michael Cole is the best they got and he's really not that good although he's come a long way from the days in which he gave away the result of a WrestleMania main event two hrs before the match.That being said, I mean look, we all have to grow up sometime. Maybe I'm too old school but I've finally outgrown wrestling. Their demagraphic is impressionable teenagers, young children, the elderly and special needs people. I'm no longer in their sightlines as a potential viewer which is why I believe the sport is not long for this world. Even the WWE Network hasn't been able to save the slipping ratings.
Professional Wrestling: Bray Wyatt, Eric Rowan, Luke Harper Vs Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins Vs Knux, Crazy Steve, The Freak?
I think the Wyatts take it. They have beaten the Shield a couple of times now and I would say the Shield would whoop Menagerie so by that theory it's the Wyatts. The Wyatts are still not into a full year on the WWE main roster but have had wrestlemania storylines and pay per views strongly built around them, they have managed to gain a fan following so I would say that is decent success for less than a year in. The Shield like the Wyatts have built a strong fan following even more so I think. They ran the yard until the Wyatts began to rival them, they managed to win the tag team and US titles in their very first attempts. They too are in main event feuds with the likes of Evolution, Cena etc. Menagerie to be realistic has only been on tv a few weeks so it has all been about a fancy ring entrance so far. So truthfully no accomplishments yet.
Adam Cole on the main roster. ALREADY!?
So reportedly by Sportskeeda Adam Cole said some nice things to Vince about KO. Also Vince seems to like Cole and he wanted him for years, looks like Vinny is pushing for Adam to be on the main by January and Royal Rumble in Phila. Cole is from Lancaster. I don't know how much reliable Sportskeeda website is. Also If rumors came out to be true I don't know If It's too early for Cole to make a step to RAW or SD. Ya'll just look what happened to Sami, Tye and other guys...
Is New Japan Pro Wrestling the only wrestling promotion in the world that can compete with WWE?
NJPW is the second biggest wrestling promotion and federation in the world after WWE. They have working relations with CMLL, AAA, NOAH, ROH, AJPW, DDT Chikara, PWG, Zero1, FIP and GFW. They use to work with TNA until Jeff Hardy messed things up. There also American and Canadian wrestlers wrestling in NJPW and I think some British UK and Russian wrestlers in NJPW too because I remember seeing some in NJPW on Youtube a while back before. They're all doing fabulous on the show, so NJPW may become huge competition to WWE someday when they come to the United States! NJPW also has the greatest Japanese stars, the greatest Luchadores and Mexican wrestlers, the greatest talent in the world, the best female wrestlers (I remember seeing some on NJPW) and they have that huge mainstream look and feel! Wrestle Kingdom 9 was way better and bigger than any PG Wrestlemania. NJPW is the greatest and hottest wrestling promotion in the world today and I think once they get extremely popular and famous in the United States, they will give WWE competition like WCW did in the 90s because NJPW is as big as WCW was in the 90s! I see NJPW pro wrestling being the future of wrestling someday because they're already the second largest promotion in the world behind WWE. So do you think NJPW itself is the only wrestling promotion in the world that can give WWE big competition? Let me know what you all think.
Why is pro wrestling (WWE) so popular?
Just kidding. All jokes aside, think of pro wrestling like the travelling circus. You have the high flying acrobat, you have the brute strength, you have the eye candy. Its all about entertainment. Wrestling isn’t fake in the true sense of the word, its scripted i.e. the outcomes of the match/feud/storyline are already determined in advance, it all depends on how the performers execute these plans and make their aforementioned match/feud/storyline compelling.Another thing that makes pro wrestling so compelling is the kind of characters being portrayed. Yeah, there maybe the sterotypical roles like the foreign heel (Rusev), the weird backwoods cult (Wyatt family), undead monster (Undertaker) among others, but the way these are booked and portrayed makes them seem larger than life. And occasionally we get the story of the underdog who faced all odds and managed to make it big- Daniel Bryan’s win at Wrestlemania 30, Chris Benoit winning the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania 20, Eddie Guerrero’s title win-these are not the typical huge musclebound guys that dominate the WWE roster, they are smaller in stature, insanely talented and hardworking, there was a “regular guy” kind of vibe with these chaps, something that we could associate with. That made their wins worth watching.Some of the bumps that these guys take are crazy and can cause major injuries at any given time if wrongly done (botched). Some botches can have really bad effects long term causing pro wrestlers to get seriously injured- concussions, fractures, muscle tears or even retire. Most recently during Payback Enzo Amore was injured in the match against The Vaudevillians, thankfully he is getting better soon. Seth Rollins had a horrible injury and was forced to vacate his title. Daniel Bryan had to retire due to many injuries. Likewise Edge and Stone Cold. These people put their bodies on the line in order to entertain us. They are on the road for most of the year, its not something everyone can do. So while it may all be scripted or fake, the men and women going out there and working their asses off to keep the audience happy. They deserve a lot of respect from us.
Why are you considered "not a real wrestling fan" if you like John Cena?
Why are you considered "not a real wrestling fan" if you like John Cena? Just because you like him doesn't mean that you aren't a fan at all. I keep hearing this, and it infuriates me every time I hear it. Cena fans are IMMEDIATELY labeled as "not a real wrestling fan" if they tell someone they like Cena. It's like going up to someone and asking them if they smoke cigarettes, and they say "no, and you reply by saying that they are not cool because of it. It doesn't make sense to do that, so why do that to a wrestling fan? I just want to know, why are people (including me) labeled as not a real wrestling fan if we like Cena? It's not like we ONLY like Cena. We like others, too. I personally like 'Taker, HBK, Triple H, Y2J, Edge, Randy Orton, etc. I just want to know why. If you agree with me, then just tell me what you think of this. **** DON'T FORGET TO STAR IF YOU LIKE THE QUESTION ****
