Who are the women you're talking about? Naomi? I don't see any of them trying to get over based in their looks alone. Who cares about skill and the divas revolution when you can get your drunk dad on TV?

In hindsight, what other wrestler managed to be as successful with even-stevens booking and overall stupid booking decisions as The Rock?

Watching the Nitro after Starrcade 97
Schiavone suggest that the nWo fans who live in their parents basement switch over to the Cartoon Network to watch Space Ghost Coast to Coast if they don't like the fact Zybszko is back... That may be worse than the Mick Foley title win call.

Yeah, I'd pretty much forgot - you going to London or Reading? Or both? I'll be at the London show, can't wait to see Liger live for the first time!
Raven had a 31% win rate in WCW in 1998. That was his first full year with the company. 97 was split halfway between ECW and WCW.
Yet he was pretty damn over and even got that Revenge cover spot. Wins can matter a lot less if you know how to book a character around it.

Well going by this interview happening, he is back in there good graces. So I expect him in it in 16 or 17.
Chris Bosh
Wasn't Chris Nowitzki highly praised in OVW before he had to retire?
Some people like Chris Sabin, right?
And how could you forget The Wildcat Chris Harris?

Wrestling in general is mostly about hot people doing hot things
It's the most CW thing in history

CW should get in on that market. Wrestling on CW, abbreviated to WCW, naturally.

You put work into your bod then you get to flaunt it, there's no reason why that can't be part of a wrestling character. I mean I guess if you're a DNB then you can concern troll on behalf of the "poor exploited women", meanwhile they're making bank off the Instagram circuit.

Meltzer getting read during a promo by Ric Flair on the Nitro after Starrcade. What a time.
Revolution, too. Get it?
I'm layering the shit out of these puns. And on a Friday afternoon too.

Daniel Bryan would probably clean up at a gay bar on folk music night tbh
That's fine, of course, but with all due respect... if the crowd then doesn't see you as a serious competitor because all your signature offense is based on you rubbing and pushing your sizable behind into another girls face, you can't blame them for your Revolution not catching on.

DNB? Drum n bass?
Can we stop with the stupid fucking acronyms, please.

Just imagine what a Ghost Vince would do.
I second the request. It makes me feel old when you guys use acronyms and I'm totally lost.
This one, however, I think I do know.

Do Nothing Bitch. It's a sports entertainment term coined by "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey

I don't think women being serious competitors requires the eradication of sexuality from their characters, particularly if they've been doing it for years. Sexiness is one of women's greatest innate advantages, and wrestling is base and exists to make money. Plenty of male wrestlers, including some all-time greats, explicitly sexualized themselves. It doesn't work for Bayley or Charlotte, but Nikki or Paige or Naomi? Sure.

The point of it is a humiliation tactic. Like when Rikishi was stinkfacing people that wasn't doing criticals, it was psychological. Though if you think that his use of the exact same move was also for sex appeal I would be willing to listen to the argument.
Shockingly the Miz keeps to kayfabe impressively on UpUpDownDown

Even if this wasn't true, Divas Revolution has had and much bigger problems.
Mikaze should feel fucking embarrassed. Losing to the Browns when you pick the Patriots? Goddamnit, son.
well it's hard to cheat in Madden heyooo
I'm pretty sure the real life Patriots could play with completely deflated footballs and still beat the Browns by two scores, lol.
I'm happy my team usually never sucks, means I never have to learn a different team in Madden! #GoPackGo
Until they met Madden boy Peyton Hillis!

Glorious.
it adds a certain spice to Demon Kane as well. Now instead of half assing his evil or his corporate suck up, he can real ass both of them.
