I realize and recognize that I lost interest in WWE when the new generation arrived
 
I havent watched WWE for a few months now. I look at spoilers to see if I want to watch the show and as soon as I see names like Daniel Bryan or CM Punk or The Miz or anyone else of this era I go "meh same old". I just havent been excited for wrestling with these new guys.

Anyone else or is everyone else creaming they pants over these new guys?

loopydate 06-05-2013 03:22 PM

How are "new guys" "meh same old?"

Anybody Thrilla 06-05-2013 03:44 PM

Why are the only two options for interest 'complete disinterest' and 'ejaculation'? Is this a troll thread? It feels like a troll thread. Prove me wrong, please.

Chavo Classic 06-05-2013 05:07 PM

Even after 7 years, CM Punk is a 'new' guy. :shifty:

The Snake 06-05-2013 09:31 PM

I feel like WWE suffered some from all the people they let go because of policy issues, budget cuts, etc.

I was watching some PPV's the other day from like 4-5 years ago. And so many guys they were working to put over are long gone. I didn't even realize it until kind of going back through these old vids. Some guys I was into before:
Shelton Benjamin, Jim Morrison, MVP, Mr. Kennedy etc

Those guys all got a lot of tv team and then were let go. They lost their transition class and now we're kind of stuck with the best of who's left.

I enjoy some of them. Daniel Bryan is good. But most of the people fighting for titles right now are a notch below some of the guys they were grooming not so long ago.

#1-norm-fan 06-05-2013 09:46 PM

Because they had personalities.

At least in most cases. I'd love to have MVP, Kennedy and Carlito back.

Morrison wasn't exactly oozing personality but I still prefer him to most of the newer guys who all blend in with each other.

Curtis has been such a serious poster until now. I refuse to believe that he would be less than sincere.

Bad News Gertner 06-05-2013 11:15 PM

AT, stop being racist. Curtis brings up a good point like usual.

My favorite John Morrison promo was when he was comparing Miz to Marty Jannetty and calling him "Mizzy Jannetty" with a really obnoxious, heelish whine (although Miz was supposed to be the heel, not Morrison). What's yours?

Mr. Nerfect 06-06-2013 01:09 AM

John Morrison's personality was meant to be heel. When he turned face he pretty much oozed mid-card, although there was a period where he was stealing the show constantly. It was 2011, I think, where it seemed pretty logical to have him in a few WWE Championship matches, but then his rivalry with R-Truth got canned.

I just said this in the 100,001 replies thread, but I'd love to see Morrison come back and reform his team with The Miz. As a singles face, Miz is pretty lost.

Morrisons problem was that he has -15 in mic skill stats. He sounds wooden and retarded on the mic. When he cuts a promo, it sounds like something a 4th grader memorized to recite in front of class.

Curtis 06-06-2013 01:12 AM

Also Morisson is too busy juggling his nuts in Melina's ass crack to come back to WWE

The New Generation killed me too. Didn't watch much between 94-96

Bad News Gertner 06-06-2013 02:33 AM

ABT running away with his tail between his legs. Another victory for Team Gorm.

Anybody Thrilla 06-06-2013 04:53 AM

Running away to go to work. I was hoping I was wrong. As long as there's actual discussion, thread stays. No problem here.

Thurman "sparky" plugg was awesome though. He drove a racecar.

He appeared @ WM 22 as a "mobster" or a chauffeur or something, but I don't think he officially debuted until sometime in 2007, IIRC.

He debuted in on July 4, 2006 as a part of the relaunched ECW.

To be fair, CM Punk still represents the "new guard" of things, so I can see calling him a "new guy." What surprises me is the fact that he's still employed with the company since he's been in the doghouse for 7 years.

Nark Order 06-09-2013 10:38 PM

If Curtis was even remotely intelligent, he would be pulling this troll thing off.

Nark Order 06-09-2013 10:40 PM

Gertner, I've been wondering. Can you describe the feeling you get when you get negative attention? Does it make you "high" or something? Why do you feel like you need it?

Nark Order 06-09-2013 10:46 PM

I want to take all humor and all non-sense out and just have a real conversation about the mental state of people that troll. I just really need to find out why these needs need to be fulfilled in certain people. It most definitely spawns back to childhood but I want to pinpoint it.

And no, under no circumstances will I ever accept "I just do it for fun, there's nothing wrong with me." Because it isn't true. If we find out what's wrong, we can help other people. Be selfless.

Narc on his way to becoming the world's first Troll Psychiatrist.

Nark Order 06-09-2013 11:11 PM

And don't you forget it.

Mr. Nerfect 06-11-2013 03:35 AM

Lol, Narc. Awesome.

Mr. Nerfect 06-11-2013 03:36 AM

Gertner is actually right about a fair bit. I do think he takes things to a troll extreme when it comes to some IWC favourites, however. I think that, secretly, Gertner sees the value in Daniel Bryan.

I have a chuckle and move on to something else. That's about it.

I've stated numerous times that I see the value in Daniel Bryan. Just because I don't agree with a point doesn't mean I'm trolling.

Sometimes I just do stuff to annoy, which you can generally pick out 95% of the time

Honestly, Shisen and I just do things to make each other laugh. That's it. We both live normal lives. There's no "underlying trauma". Just for amusement. I post mainly at night on my midnight shift. Basically I get paid to troll.

Iginfest knows what's up.

Isn't that trolling? :p

Bad News Gertner 06-11-2013 03:48 AM

Yes, but it's pretty obvious when I am. One off comments=trolling. Arguing a point=not trolling.

Mr. Nerfect 06-11-2013 03:50 AM

Oh, yeah, I get when you are trolling. I hope your love for Heath Slater is sincere, however.

Bad News Gertner 06-11-2013 03:52 AM

Lol Heath Slater is my fucking boy. He main evented Raw tonight.

Plus on Superstars this week


SPOILER: show
Heath Slater d Zack Ryder

Mr. Nerfect 06-11-2013 04:13 AM

Yessssssss! Love Slater.

Mr. Nerfect 06-11-2013 04:14 AM

Will Zack Ryder get a bit of a posse to go to war with 3MB? Santino Marella and Curt Hawkins aren't really doing anything. I'm not sure if the WWE even remembers that Hawkins & Ryder used to team, though. Might as well be Zack Ryder, Santino Marella & Justin Gabriel.

Bad News Gertner 06-11-2013 04:25 AM

I'm SHOCKED that Ryder and Hawkins haven't been put back together by now.
