"Then why didn't he?"

Because a man of integrity doesn't need to stoop to the lowest level to make a point.

And I know you SAY you think wrestling should be a mix of both, and since we both agree that Storm can wrestle, I pointed out that he had other gimmicks and got over BIG time in other promotions. Just becuase WWE chose to push him one way that didn't work didn't mean it was the performers fault.

As to you comments of why WCW and ECW failed...let's review the reasons they ACTUALLY failed, and this is not only my opinion but that of everyone in the know. WCW didn't fail. WCW made hundreds of millions of dollars. Even in the "failing" years (which by the by I don't blame Hulk for, infact I go so far as to say that Hulk was only a positive thing in WCW) which I do blame the failing years on Russo, WCW was STILL making money. Why did it fold? Gee-wiz becuase Turner Networks were bought out by AOL and AOL didn't want to continue to show WCW program, and truly didn't want WCW around anymore since it might hurt their image. So WCW was NOT a failure. Now on to why ECW failed. Was it bad booking? No. Poor performing? Hell no. ECW failed becuase Paul Heyman wasn't a business man. Every single person involved with ECW (besides Paul) has said the reason the company went under was becuase Paul didn't know how to manage a company that was GROWING and MAKING as much money as it did. Mismanagment was the ultimate cause of failure.

I don't blame WWE's current situtation on Hunter. I don't like him nor do I like seeing him on TV, but the fact is he is one of the biggest draws the company has. So your jabs at me ultimatly are nothing more then a man without a valid point trying to attack someone who knows more about this business then he.

As for this being a "Legend Killer" of TPWW. Listen here champ, I ain't no legend. This is a mother fucking forum where people come to talk about wrestling, and before you showed up we all got along relatively well. This is now the second time you have tried to make yourself out to be a wrestler or to have a gimmick. And let's review, not real, not important, and ultimatly makes you out to look like a wank. I don't know who this other "vet" that you owened was, but I doubt you did little more then bore him with your usless ramblings until he finally left.
