For The Haters: What's it gonna take for you guy to like this shit?

[Jordan]

So I got a problem right now which is that for me, TPWW is actually making me like wrestling less, because of all the constant negativity. For me there were several years recently where I really didn't care for WWE or any other company all that much, still come to TPWW and watched when I wanted but the product was lacking. This was during the forced years of Cena and JBL, which were pretty terrible at the time (I thought). Perhaps it wasn't the product entirely but I was just into different shit, I dunno.

The mark of change for me was in the latest Randy Orton/John Cena feud which culminated in a highly creative and sick Iron Man Match. That feud I feel was like a lighting bolt of electricity to WWE and started the natural rise of both those superstars. Natural meaning, finally the fans saw these guys as the top two in the company instead of being told "These are the top two guys in the company, boo/cheer accordingly".

Ever since that feud Cena and Orton have both brought it big time when it comes to PPV matches and promo's. Sure Cena isn't loved by most wrestling insiders because we know he (like The Truth said) is a product of WWE marketing. People wanna hate Cena, but hell he's doing great with what he's given (which is the WWE Universe) and you cannot fault him for how he is booked, as he is a talent not a creative member. If you do fault Cena for how his is booked then you are a Smart Mark which is a paradox and cancels out any type of enjoyment you might find from WWE.

What I don't get is why aren't there threads on TPWW about how fuckin good WWE is right now? We have the biggest characters since the Attitude boom or maybe even the late 80's, we have probably one of the most talented and potential filled rosters in WWE history, as well as some real originality happening which is what everyone bitched about for so many years.

WWE is doing exactly what I want them to do, they are expanding internationally into Mexico and bringing Lucha to the USA, they are pushing wrestlers based on talent and potential instead of their body size, and they are thinking outside of the box to ensure that each PPV is different than the last. I feel like this years PPV's have all been special and all been very well done. Probably one of the best years so far for PPV's in a long long time.

The deal is some of you guys need to relax a little with the hate. Look, you hate Michael Cole because WWE has told you to, and they mind trick you into thinking that he is the biggest annoying jackass ever, because that's how they book him! It's all a work, it's all on purpose and it's all in good fun. Michael Cole in real life is not the guy we get on screen. I find it ridiculous that a lot of you guys cannot make the connection that when you get on here and chat about how annoying Cole is, WWE has worked you over! They won! But you talk about it as if it were Cole's decisions as a human man not a character, which is where you become a paradoxical smart mark.

The same can be said about the hate for anybody. WWE knows that fans of the business (us, the people who like the behind the scenes gossip, the wrestling dorks) are gonna hate their leader, their Hogan, their Cena, but you know what, they know that you are still gonna watch! So they don't care, by pushing Cena they are keeping you glued to the tube just as much as a little kid spoutin Hustle! Loyalty! Respect! on the playground before he gives a little girl a black eye trying to five knuckle shuffle her bitch ass on the sea saw.

I've been unusually aggressive on here lately because my patience has grown this with all the haterade spewing about. And you know what, I really don't dislike anyone here, I just want you guys to try and relax and enjoy the product, become apart of it instead of dissecting it and arm chair booking and getting emotionally invested in what you WANT to happen instead of getting emotionally invested in what COULD happen. Wrestling is something extremely simple and we tend to make more out of it than it is. If you want to dissect something try a book or a museum, wrestling is fairly basic and not to be taken too seriously.

I don't expect what I've written to change everybody, I just hope that maybe someone could read this and open their eyes a little bit on how to enjoy wrestling. Most of us started as kids, and it was more fun then right? So when you watch wrestling use it as an excuse to chill out and be a kid for a few hours, it's tons more fun that way.

To make a discussion here, for those who are unhappy with the product (any product) feel free to post here what changes would make you happy. Or maybe discuss what you do like about the product right now and see if that helps you realize how good it is at the moment.

For me some of the positives are...

+ The Ring Work
My god hasn't it improved vastly? It seems like the guys are actually going for something in matches now and doing research from the library to improve and use what works to get the fans excited. A great example is Randy Orton who I feel learned a shit ton from CM Punk and now he is a ring general. His matches with Christian are some of the best in years and it wasn't only Christian who brought the skills to the table.

Alberto Del Rio brings a realistic energy that makes him quite dangerous and a viable contender to take out Cena, or even a monster like Kane and Big Show.

Punk obviously is WWE's new X-Pac and is bringing the skill level of anyone he works with to new heights.

Sheamus is one of the best bruisers to come along since Brock Lesnar and reminds me in some ways of a young Scott Hall (even aside from the finish).

Christian is one of those HBK types now who can have a great match with anyone and adapt his style and moves to a weaker opponents move set to make them awesome, see Mark Henry.

Sin Cara and Rey Mysterio are two of the most exciting wrestlers I have ever seen and I love the Spanish influence in WWE right now, these two guys are fucking money for WWE, and fucking awesome for the Universe to enjoy.

Cole brings something to WWE we haven't had since Bobby Heenan was blowing up, of course Cole is much different but he is filling that spot which has been vacant for years and eventually Cole is gonna bring big money and big pops for a lot of wrestlers.


-Negatives
WWE has a great mid card division right now on Raw and Smackdown and still I'd like them to have a big more focus, and to do that I want more focus on the mid card titles.

Tag Teams, this speaks for itself. WWE needs to gimmick tag teams onces again and they will see how much money is in two bad ass guys with matching outfits and cool tandem moves. We need a Road Warriors type team to light it up. I really want Kidd and DH Smith to get back together, as well as Ted and Cody.

Okay so in closing, sorry for being a dickhead to some of you guys lately but I've been watching JCW a lot so I've picked up swearing too much
