I couldn't agree more :y:

Except Rey was stuck in the Cruiserweight Division for years. There are a few exceptions, but a lot of talent wouldn't be given the chance to even cut promos in the Cruiserweight Division.

I didn't say that Tyson Kidd would be THE GUY. Not everybody needs to be THE GUY. I can definitely see Tyson Kidd challenging a heel champion in Calgary with Bret Hart in his corner, though. I can definitely see Kidd facing Chris Jericho and maybe even pulling off a massive upset, though. I could even see Kidd getting a surprising amount of offense in on a Mark Henry type before getting put down by a powerful onslaught and finished. I could see Curtis Axel and Tyson Kidd renewing their rivalry, perhaps even with Kidd eventually joining Axel and Heyman. Paul Heyman could sell Kidd as a heel submission specialist to the WWE Universe. Give him a bodyguard that is less shit than Jackson Andrews and Kidd could work surprisingly well in a similar role to what The Brian Kendrick was playing before he fucked that up.

I completely agree. I still hope that we get Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton at Payback, as I feel that could a Match of the Year candidate, and that a win there would launch Daniel Bryan into the stratosphere. He also seems like a pretty logical choice to win a Money in the Bank briefcase this year.

I've taken it upon myself to maintain Curtis Axel's Wikipedia page. They won't change the name of the page from "Michael McGillicutty" to "Curtis Axel" or "Joe Henning".

Could you imagine how hot a Ziggler vs. Bryan match would be at the moment? I mean, Ziggler has been inactive for a bit, but their matches are always so fantastic and with the crowd so into Bryan? Wow.

Ziggler and Daniel had one of the best series of "Champion versus Champion" matches. All of them were consistently good.

lol. He wasn't "stuck" in the Cruiserweight division any more than he would have been "stuck" in a lower-card division without a title to go after before. The man even fucking challenged for the WCW title against Ric Flair while he was "stuck" in the cruiserweight division. Having a division to be at the top of did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to hamper him and in fact helped his career outside that division in the long run. How is this a bad thing? lol

Rey Rey was never "stuck" stuck. Although he was running after the Cruiserweight title, he was constantly involved in wrestling the top stars of Smackdown and getting shots at other belts.

Why does Vince McMahon think that a last-second rewrite that has no added promotional opportunities is going to do ANYTHING to change the Raw rating? This isn't 1999, and Mankind's not winning the strap.

It's just an appearance by Vince and Stephanie that lasted all of one segment, and there's no one sitting behind the NBA commentary desk that going to give two shits about WWE enough to make a "That'll put butts in seats" comment.

Court Bauer mentioned Vince can make his mind up for shit these days and constantly requests these changes. In listening to him it sounds like working WWE creative is fucking clown shoes.

Poor Vader. I always felt Shawn didn't go 100% in their match

Apparently Scotty 2 Hotty is now a fireman:

A guy I used to work with is now a fireman, and he posted on his Facebook a few weeks back:

"So the old wrestler "Scotty 2 Hotty" is going to school to be a firefighter and came to the station for dinner and hang out. Weird."

Apparently he was closer to done than he thought.

The guys with Main Event potential will always get out. They'll always find a way to catch on and crossover. Especially if you make that the intention of the Division.

I'd love a new Cruiserweight Divison (or something completely different to the current structure like the X Division or Hardcore Divisions were) as I think it'd give renewed focus to the lower card. The major benefit of using the smaller guys is that if Creative can't come up with anything storyline-wise the very least you get is a stellar match per show.

TNA are doing an interesting thing with their Triple Threat X Division setup that gets guys on TV, gives the audience a great 7-10 minute match and can lead to any number of angles if that's the way they wanna go.

Alternatively, you actually give focus back to the Tag Division with stoylines/promo time instead of these random matches here and there.

WWE.com has listed STING as the greatest wrestler never to appear in the WWE.

Even better than John Cena??????

Get it Slik? Because of his catch-phrase "You can't see me!"

That was a good joke.

Mind. Blown.

Some stuff from the dirtsheets:

So any bets on how long the tag revival lasts this time before the WWE loses interest again.


Also from what I've understand about the CHIKARA mess is that the company split off into around 7 smaller promotions (Wrestling Is coalition). Everything that involved money or backstage issues is indeed true while the hostile or new management takeover is just a work/storyline to keep people interested in the smaller promotions.

Damn it, thought for sure it'd be Alex Wright.

I'm guessing it's gonna be The Usos suddenly winning matches left and right for a month just to push them as viable contenders to The Shield and then after they lose the tag title match, going right back to where they were before.

Kinda like whenever a random diva gets a meaningless one month push to try to convince people they're relevant before it ends immediately following the title match.

Sadly, I had the exact same thought process.

Would have said that Muta should have been higher. Abby should have been much lower. I wish Kobashi was on this list.

*Shows up to see DLVH on his computer, kicks him from the room.*

Seriously, I don't know what's weirder: The fact that Kevin Sullivan was in WWWF, or that he was a face during that time.

Wow, this is pretty awesome. It's always touching to see stuff like this going down.
