This is why I, and other millennials, would like to remind you all that our generation has the best wrestlers.
The locker room is full of awesome people like, Daniel Bryan.
He voted Jill Stein

And he liked the Wyatts so well he squashed them at WM.
Wrestlers are forever carnies. And their base instinct is to put themselves over, always.
He burnt his bridges with Japan as a whole and WWE over fucking weed.
It's pathetic that someone throws it all away over an obsession with weed. Idiot.

The WCW Invasion
Wait a while before doing the angle so you can actually get people like Goldberg, Flair, DDP, Booker, etc on board so WCW's lineup isn't just a bunch of midcard WCW wrestlers. Also no fucking ECW wrestlers. Build up to the Invasion PPV and build up to the main event elimation match with WWF super stars vs WCW super stars. We get close to the finale of the match, get down to Rock and Austin versus Goldberg and DDP. Then just before we get a winner - the lights go out and suddenly this happens
Hogan, Nash, Hall and a bunch of the reunited nWo show up and clean house - ending the show with the nWo spraypainting everyone. The end result for the next month or two is that WWF and WCW end their war and join forces to fight the newly revived nWo. Also, this nWo includes the members of DX - so it's full on Kliq nWo at full power. The WCW/WWF alliance seems to be slowly losing to the nWo - and then from the rafters one last star shows up to tip the balance in favor of WCW and WWF
Well. It certainly couldn't have been worse than what we got.

I love Bryan but word could get out he's a huge jackass behind the scenes and I wouldn't even be shocked.This is why I, and other millennials, would like to remind you all that our generation has the best wrestlers.

He isn't actually anti-vaccination and that was just shit people said with no source, right?
Go lie down, imbask.

This does remind me how much of a mindfuck it was for me as a when when I saw he looked nothing like Darth Vader.
we're not talking about real people
of course they're ALL assholes when we look at it that way
we're talking about WORK
IT'S FUCKING FAKE
and hunter is the worst worker that ever worked this side of a shoot
and that's a shoot
Lol. Dude is just as addicted as any other addict. Spent 2 weeks in a Japanese jail for it.
Vaping weed is pretty harmless, but at the same time he's at a point where he NEEDS it and can't go anywhere with out it. It's a problem.

I do like how at least the current generation of wrestlers just play video games behind the scenes for the most part instead of some crazy shit.

Him supporting Jill Stein adds credence to it, if anything

The dude's foot is fucking mangled. Hard to blame him.
Also there are some people that are just against over-vaccination. I think there are like double the amount of vaccinations they want kids to take compared to when I grew up. So there are some parents that are just not into the sheer amount of vaccinations the state requires a kid to have.
The people who are against ANY vaccinations are the true idiots.

I thought Total Divas was just working me when they made Bryan and Brie look like insane hippie people.
If it's his only way to manage the pain then cool. I'm not him though so I can't say.
AT LEAST SOMEONE RECOGNIZES MY GREATNESS
My facebook has been buzzing with people saying it's really good and better than Episode 7
He tried to kill Foley in front of his family and made a bunch of homophobic promos. He's far from perfect. Very charismatic though.
You know who didn't do that (except for trying to kill Mick Foley)? Mick Foley.
All that being said when it comes to the big 5 in the WWE they all have different agendas
Oddly enough because of these things from an entertainment perspective HHH gets and understands wrestling fans today maybe better than anyone else in the company.
NXT proved it and him keeping somebody like Ryan Wards near him shows he understands the history of wrestling and what works and what doesn't work.
His mixture of raiding talent and using NXT to try and elevate new talent has not only made NXT a viable touring promotion but he also took the Johhny Ace roster that may have been the worst of all time and upgraded it to where it is today.
I honestly believe that HHH is changing from the insecure talent who Warrior buried to somebody who sees the bigger picture in wrestling. Then he has his moments when he flashes back into 2002-4 HHH.
- Barrios wants the company as profitable as possible and an image as clean as a whistle
- HHH wants to be liked and respected by people in wrestling. He wants to be Ric Flair with his matches and his impact on wrestling (except for the jobbing part).
- Steph wants to be respected in business circles. Something that if she were to run for office she could point with pride that she ran the WWE.
- Vince wants his image and his story regardless of if it matches fan or economic interest.
- Dunn wants and Emmy and a product that is more entertainment and less sport.

Would not be surprised. Episode 7 was trying desperately to just put things back on track from the prequels, rather than do anything new or interesting.

Stan Hansen's got to be one of the nicest dudes, doesn't have a bad word to say about anyone, made his money and got out with his health intact, only really guilty of maybe hitting dudes a teensy bit too hard and running over the AWA title with his truck.
Also, Terry Funk. Anyone ever buried the Funker? Not to my knowledge.

Caderfix with the quality post, gunning for Browny's spot in the WrassleGAF Power Rankings.
Fantastic post. Agree with all of it.
Although I would maybe emphasize that Stephanie DESPERATELY wants to be respected in business circles.

Sounds good to me. Get to hear Kofi's theme again
Episode 7 was familiar and safe and I was okay with that because, after the prequels, that's exactly what Star Wars needed.

It takes time for things to start clicking, but once it does, it's unstoppable. The last act had me over the moon.
Terry Funk is pretty much every wrestler's best friend. He seems like the nicest guy on the planet.

I still don't know if I'd go that far, despite personally looking forward to it more than Ep7. Might need a rewatch
That said, it's really fucking good. I hope everyone can appreciate this era of Star Wars we're living through right now, because we've come a lonnnnnnnnnng way from Eps1-3
I'm sure Mic Foley's wife isn't a fan of Terry lol.
Half the crazy shit that Foley did in the WWE was his idea.

I don't have much to add about Triple H, but I do think it's funny that people think Shane would run the business better and is way less crazy than his fath- ... OH SHIT, he's about to jump off of something really tall again!
People who say any of the prequel movies are better than any of the other Star Wars movies are out of their minds.
And are probably HHH marks, too

Shane by all accounts had terrible ideas for creative, it just seems like the very anti-Vince/HHH/Stephanie crowd think he could save the business.
But at the same time a lot of people think everything good is HHH. The first Raw of the brand split was fantastic whereas Smackdown was meh so everyone was all 'oh it had to be HHH for Raw and Vince for Smackdown'. Then it gets out Vince booked that Raw.
Flashforward a few months and suddenly 'oh yeah, Smackdown is way too good for Vince to have any involvement' and then more words get out of how Vince is highly involved in Smackdown too.

I think the only people on the planet that like the prequels better than the original trilogy are kids that were born within the past 10-15 years, and they just saw those first.
Lol no.
Although Episode 3 is much better than Episode 1 or 2.
But I'll go ever further and say New Hope isn't really that great of a movie in the first place. The only one from the original trilogy that Lucas directed funnily enough.
They completely forgot the NWA streaming service though Tharpe did meet with HHH recently so who knows what the long term plans for that service are.
If it wasn't such a pain for a western company to manage a business in Japan I'd say WWE should have just bought AJPW or NOAH.

SHOOT: I went to Star Wars conventions in the 90's, but haven't seen the last 3 or 4 films (lost track) and wouldn't waste a second of my precious time doing so.
Dead to me.
