I was a big proponent of the cruiserweight division coming back but that was with the caveat that the main event scene shouldn't be riddled with smaller guys. You could justify a few Daniel Bryan types "transcending the weight class" and working with the heavyweights but when they're all over the place, the division doesn't make sense.

Vince didn't create Sting or Goldberg

They bring back the Cruiserweight Title just as they drop "Heavyweight" from the World Title. It makes very little sense to me how they've done it. You also have guys like Cedric Alexander cutting weight in order to be in the division, while guys like Seth Rollins are in the "World" Title scene. It's really weird. They should have just done the CWC as a stand-alone thing, given it to Ibushi and called it a day until next year.

Wherever I hear his blind faith followers like yourself parrot those types of lines I laugh. The company had never been stronger than it is now. Guys like Dave and you have been saying Doomsday is coming. Eventually if you keep repeating it, it might be true and then you can say "see told ya", but ignore the decades of being wrong.

Meanwhile the company continues to increase Network subs, continues to increase TV rights fees, Mania is on a decade long streak of doing 60k plus seat venues. All of which suggest the real fans, not the people who complain on TPWW (all ten of you guys), are very happy with the product.
It's a common phrase -- I didn't make it up; nor did Dave Meltzer. It's cute you've memorized things he wrote in 1998 though. Sheep.

The numbers thing is some serious loltrolling though. Not anywhere near as good as other stuff these forums has seen, but crosses the line into being ridiculous enough that it is actually amusing.
