Because all you do is complain and its gets old so I call you on it. Do you know how hard it is to bodybuild, train to be a wrestler,learn how to speak in public well, have a character,act and perform so that you are entertaining? No wonder wrestlers rip on the internet. It is easy to sit in a computer chair and make stupid jokes about them when you obviously have no respect for what they have to go through just to even stay in shape too look how they do.

By that logic, we should tolerate the crapness that was Nathan Jones 'because he had to go through a lot to stay in shape and try to develop a character'.

In a word, no

Just because you happen to be on my TV screen doesn't mean that you have the God given right to command me to love everything that you do. I for one think Luther is probably the most impressive of the three new(ish) faces that competed at GAB. Suzuki was poor that night and Mordecai stunk. I like Luther's offence, his look and his pretty impressive command of backstage skits for someone so 'green'. He has some serious potential.

With all due respect to a WWE worker who has most likely (hell, they actually have) worked their rear ends off to get where they are in the biggest promotion on the planet, wrestling fans are like sports fans that are used to seeing their team perform to a certain standard and then when the team falls below that standard, they get upset. Thats how it works in my mind. Wrestlers should be seasoned before they get on TV and if they can't work then they shouldnt really be on TV on a mainstream show or even in WWE full stop. I think WWE realised that with Kevin Fertig and John Heidenreich and sent them back to OVW (although Heidenreich is now back). We have the right to rip on wrestlers coz we're indirectly paying their wages and we have the right to want a better product, its as simple as that.

I understand what you are saying and to a point I agree but i was more so directed at Steveo alone because I have seen him time after time dis on a wrestler when they bebut without even seeing them more then maybe once or twice.

I like Suzuki and like his ring presence and character. Everyone is not going to be an Air Jordan but togehter they all make up a team and some are going to be better at some things then others.

What is wrong with trying to find the positive things instead of seeing a negitive and start saying they suck or dis them.

I am a fan of wrestling,not a critic.

THIS THREAD IS SHITTY!!!

But what happens on the internet is mostly critisizm. If everything was perfect in the merry old land of WWE noone would be talking about it. Critisizm is what generates conversation. After the Bash I think the rest of the people who watched it including me realized that Kenzo needs some work as well as Mordecai. I ciritisized them before and i was justified as such after their big matches on a crappy PPV from a crappy show that has done nothing to help itself. Now that Angle is back i hope it'll get better. You wanna hear me praise something. Last week I witnessed a match of the year candidate when Orton and Edge wrestled at Vengeance. Its times like that i feel proud to have spent money and devoted a good portion of my life since i was 4 years old to a sport that i love. But in that same token I watched WWE put one of their world titles on a man whos biggest claim to fame is being a 2 or 3 time tag champ and the only reason he got it was so that his boss could say fuck you to CNBC and everyone else who had problems with some questionable gestures that he did. That made me hang my head as a fan and wonder what the hell has become of the sport I love. But if everyone was having 5 star matches and things like the Bradshaw incident never happened no one would ever talk about wrestling. WWE set a standard for themselves in 1998 what is wrong with expecting that out of them anymore. I'm just supposed to accept crappy booking & bad wrestling just because there isn't much of an alternative? I refuse to do that. I expect the level of excellence i saw for about 4 years in a row and nothing less. That is not asking too much. I will continue to complain as such until it returns. Like it has been said I pay the bills for these guys i want good wrestling,good shows, and no shit.

This whole topic has gone through the wall.

AudioSavior · 07-19-2004, 11:55 PM

Like i said, I am a fan not a critic. I'll watch it good or bad. And to quote Simon, "Its like pizza and sex. No matter how bad it is, its still pretty good." And to add, I still want it no matter what.
