Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 You know what would be a great angle is if there was some sort of authority figure bad guy trying to hold back the fan favorite from  making it to the top. It'd be especially good if they did it over and over and over again for 20 ****ing years and never came up with anything else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallen5862 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Â If HHH loses to Batista at WrestleMania he has to retire from Wrestling. Could their be an angle where Sting makes an appearance and causes HHH to lose and force his retirement. The other angle could be the Nature Boy helps HHH to win and get his revenge from being attacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo, the ECW was a direct influence on that. Changed the nature of how they did all their matches 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's lame is they did the exact same match/stipulation with them about 5 years ago. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justice98 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 They shoulda kept the old stage set-up.   BTW, Enzo and Cass hopped the rail and crashed the ROH/NJPW G1 Supercard show. But that seems like a work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJPW surprised me by having both their IC & Heavyweight titles changing hands again so some after WrestleKingdom.  Have you checked out MLW or Booker T's ROW? Both shows are available free on the FITE app & have really good production. Harlem Heat recently reunited on ROW. A few weeks back on MLW, Konan vs LO Ki did a no holds barred match where Konan took a spike to the eye. MLW has a pretty good roster. Cornette on color. Pillman's kid is part of the Heart Foundation with one of the Harts & Davey Boy's kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) Who has done more for the WWE (aka WWF)?  Hogan, Austin, Rock, or Cena? That's a solid Rushmore of WWE, right?  Edit..I'm sure Triple H would **** about not being included. 🙄 Edited April 8, 2019 by The Evil Genius 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere near the others on that list.  Good to see Kofi Kingston get the belt. Imo it's about 17 years in the making since Booker T should of won the belt against Triple H at WM 19  Edited April 9, 2019 by Mr. Sinister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallen5862 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I was right about "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair helping HHH win his match. The ending for the Women's match was reportedly botched. Media reports said that Charlotte was to tap out to Becky Lynch. Then it looked like the makeup finish was the roll up bit Rhonda's shoulder was off the mat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere near the others on that list.   I think I would put HHH over the Rock though. His contributions to WWE and the wrestling business in general are pretty substantial when you think about it. From his solo career, to DX, to what he's done with NXT is more than what Rock's contribution was, in aggregate. NXT, in particular is gonna shape WWE (and pro wrestling) for many years to come. And he was main eventing PPVs long after Rock was gone.   Because the question was, who has done more for WWE. It wasnt necessarily who was the bigger star.  In totality, it's Hogan, Austin, HHH, Rock.   I think HHH gets the "along for the ride" treatment because he was a heel most of the time. He was the foil for the babyface, but faces need a foil, and he was gold in that role.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busch1724 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Cena couldn't hold the Rock's jock. Cena is like Chris Samuels. A great player with a once great and proud organization but the organization just isn't what it used to be. Just kind of the placeholder until the next generational talent arrives. Obviously we're still waiting on that person, and so is the WWE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justice98 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I feel like y'all gotta re-read Evil Genius' question. It's not who was better, who was cooler, who had more catchphrases, or even who had better matches. It was who has done more for WWE. Make an argument the Rock did more.

His crossover appeal brought more casuals and interest to the sport than ever before. He was on morning talk shows, in movies, on SNL, literally everywhere. He cast a spotlight on the promotion that Cena was never able to duplicate. Ratings consistently declined during Cena's era. Cena may have been there longer, but he oversaw a worse period of WWE. Plus, Cena doesn't exist without the presence and platform that the Rock created.  A huge part of this graph is due to Austin but Rock was the face and leading star when it peaked and his absence directly ties into it's decline despite Austin returning as a regular.   Edited April 9, 2019 by Momma There Goes That Man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
