| Re: Lance Storm's Rules of Wrestling
Quote: | Well you're right I don't think Storm is gospel, but you're also right that he is spot on here. The points are fairly obvious. I think a lot of members here could come up with a list similar to this, its just WWE and TNA who seem oblivious to the fundamental principals of wrestling. Storm's wrestling views are rather like those of Paul Heyman. Yes, he is always right, but the points he makes are not exactly revolutionary.
I agree with pretty much all of these 100% though, especially the point about the World Title meaning everything and the idea that stip matches should never be done cold. WWE just throw title changes and gimmicks at the product in order to try to make it more entertaining. The most ridiculous thing is the Extreme Rules PPV. Matches should only be contested under "Extreme Rules" if the feud calls for it. To say having a whole PPV full of these stips cheapens it would be an understatement. The same goes for Lockdown. |
Although I agree with the article and you, at least WWE give some sort of small reasoning for most of their gimmick matches. Unlike TNA where you get random matches with no feud behind it (seemingly following one of the steps correctly...) but then adds arandom stip and ends it in less than 5 min.
