I'd say not agreeing with your point and not getting it are two very different issues.

I would agree, were it not for the fact that you were only a couple posts ago arguing that you were not disputing my point when you clearly were.

Please, stick to one story. The thing about internet message boards is it's possible to look back at prior messages. You can't weasel your way out by changing the script and hoping nobody notices.

You're claiming that you understand the point (Which you've demonstrated you don't) but you disagree, though you claimed you were not disputing it. Either a shite argument or a shite trolljob.

It seems like one of those "fix all" things like ending the Brand Split, that on further inspection, holds very little water.

It doesn't hurt that most of these responses are "I don't like it, so getting rid of it will fix things."

The nature of the IWC is regressive rather than progressive, and before anyone tosses up the pained strawman that I think I'm blasting only others, I find myself doing it, too. Doesn't mean it's right. It's certainly something I try to avoid.

But let's face it. The tendency is to look back to the golden years. Things were better in the Attitude Era, and it's not so much because they were the right place and the right time as it is they were just awesome. People rarely look at how things could be progressively better. The answer is always "go back to (X)," or so often as to make little difference.

We need to go back to blood and major stunts and garbage wrestling, because the way back si the way forward. It's also pretty much literally the cheapest fix, though not necessarily the right one.

Hey KK, do me a favour? Suggest a time when WWE "failed" in the PG Era so that ccm can attempt to show me how a non-PG environment would have fixed the problem.

The only exceptionally bad storyline I can think of in recent times was the Edge Kidnaps Paul Bearer storyline. Yes, it was corny as hell. Yes, there were holes bigger than the Grand Canyon in the logic of the whole thing. I can only imagine that a non-PG version would have Edge going even crazier and bloodying Bearer instead of tossing pizza at him, but that doesn't change the fact that, as a face, Edge shouldn'thave been doing any of that stuff to egin with. So, poor example.

How compelte does it has to be? Because JBL is poopy immediately came to mind.

I'd as soon not nitpick, but I think this epitomises the difference between old Cena and new Cena.

Onthe other hand, I disagree the problem there is with the PG rating, since PG didn't require them to go that far.

I don't know. I have trouble looking at the problem as a PG one, so thinking of what could have been fixed is a little challenging. I mean, the Nexus angle could have been fucked by Daniel Bryan Daniels choking out a bitch, but simply not choking a bitch wouldn't have really made that angle worse. That was a fucking awesome deal, which was eventually ruined more by lack of direction.

So I'm not rally sure what to say.

You're claiming that you understand the point (Which you've demonstrated you don't) but you disagree, though you claimed you were not disputing it. Either a shite argument or a shite trolljob.

I never claimed I wasn't arguing with you. To some extent, I agree being PG isn't the only problems WWE have. My opinion differs from yours however that being PG for WWE is an issue. To claim being PG doesn't hurt them any is ludicrous. Telling the 18-34 demographic to fuck off and targeting kids makes no sense ratings wise. Especially since having that demographic could make a huge difference.

And I never have backed down from my opinion on the subject. Agreeing with one point you made and endorsing your views are two different things. Whether you agree or not, the PG rating pisses off the adult audience and limits them to a degree. WWE trying to market themselves as something their not is laughable. For instance, having Keystone Light as a sponsor and having Keith Stone on RAW. How exactly does that scream PG??? Just backs up my point that most of their sponsors are adult oriented and being PG isn't a real big benefit.

I like how you ignore certain parts of my debate to try and claim I don't get your points. I do know what you're saying, I simply disagree for the most part. I never disputed being PG was the entire problem for WWE, but to overlook it has a connection to the show quality is wrong. It's all about fan perception. Most fans over the age of 18 probably thinks being PG blows and start looking elsewhere for entertainment. The numbers don't lie here is the bottom line for me and major overhauls to the shows have to be made...

Just an update on last night's ratings:

WWE RAW (9-10pm EDT): 1.5 adults (18-49) (4.484 million total viewers)
WWE RAW (10-11:05 pm EDT): 1.8 adults (18-49) (5.126 million total viewers)

Those numbers were good enough to take the third and fifth place spots for Monday night respectively.

Alberto Del Rio has once again been victimized by WWE's haphazard booking as his long planned match with John Cena at SummerSlam was nixed hours before last night's Raw telecast in Hampton, Virginia.

Creative overhauled the match line-up for SummerSlam Monday afternoon after deeming their creative plans for CM Punk for the event as "awful." Del Rio was effectively removed from the title picture as a result. WWE's braintrust felt that had Punk not been slotted in the title match, his much talked about storyline would extinguish.

Though Del Rio had the rug pulled out from under him once again, creative has the 34-year-old pegged for a title run this fall. WWE announced today they will present a landmark tour across Mexico this October and a number of high ranking officials feel the countryman returning as a conquering hero will garner a great deal of media attention.

Meanwhile, The Miz was at one point scheduled to reign supreme in the WWE Championship Tournament on Raw. Creative later changed their mind and the WWE Championship was awarded to Rey Mysterio, who got to hold the belt for approximately an hour and a half.

Emperor Smeat

07-26-2011, 10:17 PM

I wonder if it also meant the rumors of the new belt was scrapped as well since Miz was originally rumored to win the new belt from the tournament but on RAW it was just the replica of the old Cena style belt.

I'd assume Rey is going to get tossed out of any chance for the title at Summerslam with his rematch next week and lose again to Cena.

In a move that is sure to please many fans, WWE is planning to make changes to its booking philosphy, namely, focusing on more long-term booking. WWE made an unprecedented move several months back by announcing John Cena vs. The Rock for next year's WrestleMania a full year in advance - and it appears we'll be seeing more big matches set up this way. This is somewhat of an "old school" approach - with the company deciding on a featured match and then 'working backwards'

Wrestling ratings usually pop for the NEXT week, not the current episode. People have to find out what happened first. Remember the rating the week Rock "returned" (3.14) was nothing compared to the following week (3.9) after everyone knew about it.

Now if next week's rating remains the usual 3.2 or worse, I may start to worry

<font color=goldenrod>NXT Season 5 is now 21 episodes old with no end in sight, no hints as to when it might end, nothing. Derrick Bateman has won every match since returning, almost as if WWE is telling the audience who to vote for. Yet despite that Titus O'Neil continues to win every challenge because the fans cheer for him solely due to the dog bark/association with Hornswoggle. Yoshi Tatsu and Tyson Kidd have main evented the show for about a month now. Every week its the same thing on repeat.

I really have no idea why they are dragging this season on for so stupidly long. I almost wonder if they don't have 5 guys in FCW they feel comfortable calling up.</font>

Still catching up on SmackDown! (up to two weeks ago now) and I've noticed that AJ is an awesome wrestler. Some of her stuff is off, but she comes across as a wrestler, not a Diva, and is enjoyable to watch in the ring (from an in-ring standpoint). She could develop into something really awesome down the road.

Also, Triple H has been awarded the WWE and WHC titles 2 times each without having to face anyone. That's 4 times he became champion without having to face anyone, unless I'm mistaken.

07-29-2011, 04:06 AM

When did this happen?

I remember he won the title(s) a couple of times when they were "vacant".

07-29-2011, 04:12 AM

He won the WWE Title at Unforgiven 99 after Vince vacated it. And he won the WHC in an Elimination Chamber after it became vacant due to a Double Finish (pinfall/tapout iirc).

Are you confusing these instances of winning the belt when it was vacated with being awarded the belt?

Juan

07-29-2011, 04:27 AM

I think he's referring to HHH's WWE title win at No Way Out 2009. WWE has his opponent listed as "n/a" but he won it in the Elimination Chamber and Edge was the first one eliminated.

Also, he was awarded the WHC when Eric Bishoff introduced it in 2002

Jura

07-29-2011, 05:11 AM

Yeah I'm referring to the "n/a". I didn't know what happened on those dates so I assumed each instance was with the title vacated somehow or something.

Emperor Smeat

I just looked at the WWE title history and noticed something. John Cena has beaten everyone back who has beaten him for the title except for when he's in a triple threat match or there's some kind of stipulation. For example:

He loses his first title to Edge then wins it back from Edge. He loses it to RVD and then there's a triple threat match where Edge wins.

Later on he beats Randy Orton then loses it to him then wins it back.

Sheamus then beats John but he wins it back.

Batista beats John but then he wins it back.

He then loses it in a Fatal 4 way.

It's like he gets the last laugh in the feud and if he doesn't end up with the title it's because it takes a triple threat, fatal 4 way or some other kind of stipulation to take the title off of him for a while. You can say he didn't beat CM Punk to win back the title but the future is still unwritten and it could be looking ugly.

He's been booked almost exactly like Hogan in the 1980s and 1990s or even Triple H in the early Brand Split era where both guys always got the last laugh or key win even if it meant the lack of new stars created or main event becoming stale.

Although the biggest difference was Hogan politicked and back stabbed a lot to keep his grip and Triple H benefited a lot from his marriage while it appears Cena's grip is done on purpose by Vince.

WWF was in between shows at the local airport, and the wrestlers were waiting by the baggage collection bay and Bradshaw decided to dick about trying to push Blackman onto the moving luggage belt. Blackman turned around unflustered and planted a crescent kick flush on Bradshaw's jaw, knocking him clean out, picked up his bag and walked on. Both shook hands when it was done. UPDATE: a reader saw an interview with the Blue Meanie which says Bradshaw was pissing Blackman off, calling him allsorts of stuff. Blackman just turned around and hit him in the face and body a dozen times then went to finish him off with a kick but got his foot caught in a luggage bag. This gave the guys watching a chance to separate the two. Bradshaw apologized straight after. If only other legit tough guys would do the same to Mr Layfield.

Thats from this (http://www.operationsports.com/forums/wrestling/175212-real-backstage-fights-between-wrestlers-official-list.html) site. They say take it with a grain of salt, but that seems believable. And badass.

Amazing that they made a title that makes the Spinner look less ridiculous.

Keep mistaking Zack's new logo (as seen on the belt) as a packet of fries or something.

I suggest everyone download the Review-A-Wai podcast from the LAW. They review old shows, some from early 90s WCW and WWF are downright hilarious.

Well, that's not so much ridiculous but badly designed and looks about on par with a backyard fed's title.

Why does he have a Mexican Heavyweight Title anyways?
