As for the intended topic of the thread, I actually agree with Tedious on this. But another thing I'd like to throw out there: Keep in mind that professional wrestling is still a carny business. Politics still run wild.

Let's say a great wrestler shows up in the WWE, and he's just supernaturally talented, but knows nothing about the business. I can't see guys like The Undertaker and Triple H liking him too much if he doesn't respect the shit they have done for the industry. To respect who The Undertaker and Triple H are, you need to be able to go back a fair way. For The Undertaker's streak to matter to you, WrestleMania needs to matter to you. For Triple H being such a great heel in your mind, you need to be able to compare him to other great heels.

I think a young guy with all the talent in the world, but no understanding for how the business works is going to run into too many walls. They'll get an initial push based on their talents, before they get jobbed out, then saddled with a ridiculous gimmick, before they get fed-up and quit.

Noid, I think you just proved that you don't understand how the buisness works.

Well, I just see too many guys "tested" for their dedication to wrestling today. MVP has been through a period like that, and Jack Swagger is going through it right now. Plus, doesn't FCW make its students watch tapes from the past? I think wrestling history knowledge is at least somewhat important to a wrestler's success.
