I am posting my 1,000th post landmark in here since I spend most of my time here and I am going to make it wrestling related.
I think most people feel that wrestling has been on a bit of a decline since the 90's when the Monday Night Wars were still around. But what have been the good things since 2000. And what have been the really bad things.
So list 5 good things and 5 really bad things that have occured since the beginning of the new millenium.
Good Things
1)Emergence of TNA particularly AJ Styles
2)Chris Benoit vs Kurt Angle at RR 2003
3)Emergence of John Cena and Randy Orton
4)Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero becoming the World and WWE champions
5)Shawn Michaels returning to the ring at a very decent standard
Really Bad Things
1)Purchase of WCW (no real competition allowing the WWE to get complacent and write poor shows)
2)Mis-use of several talented wrestlers in the WWE (Taz, Raven, Sean O'haire, Jerry Lynn, Ultimo Dragon, Chris Kanyon etc)
3)The nWo angle (so badly done)
4)Scott Steiner vs HHH (this may have been one of the worst matches I have seen)
5)The way the Cruiserweight division has been handled
