A rant I was having during the main event

P: Ready for a boring match?
???: yup, cause Orton's in it
P: all matches are the same with a few exceptions
???: you're right, except for some of the technical or high flying matches
P: yeah even hassan is just another average wrestler
???: yup, and look how well average wrestlers succeed in WWE
P: true
P: Instead of having an eye candy match they could have had some diva be the ref and shake her titties because longer matches always are more entertaining like the HHH vs HBK match last year or the triple threat at mania.
P: There is no wrestler on raw that I want to watch wrestle in a normal match. Besides Eugene and Visera.
???: LOL
P: seriously
P: Eugene because he does differnt things in his matches and Vis because hes so fat people have to work around it to beat him
???: they are world title material
P: nah
P: But this rant is over I have to watch what happens at the end of this boring match
--------------------------------
Do you agree that generally matches are boring?
*Deleted scene*
???: Eugene as champion would inspire retards around the world to push themselves to succeed
P: haha
???: and Vis would do the same for fat ppl
P: "Jimmie eugene is the world champ....doesn't that inpire you to spell "Hat""?

I agree that, generally, tag team matches are boring as hell.

Face team gets offense
Heel team takes the advantage
Heel team works over one wrestler for a few minutes
Tease a couple of hot tags
Hot tag
Fresh man cleans house
Heel team wins by cheating, or face team wins clean.


Every fucking time like clock work.

Yeah, how come in tag matches when the heel team makes a tag and the ref doesn't see it it doesn't matter, but when the face team does it the ref tells them to get out? Let's be fair here guys!

Yeah, I hate how every tag match is exactly the same. One time I actually called every single move correctly in the ending segment.

Also, whenever a heel grabs the tights or ropes JR points it out and yells, yet when a face does the same thing JR sees no problem. Same thing with women getting attacked. Face women don't deserve it, yet heels do.

Wrestling is way too predictable sometimes, but eh they make their money so they don't give a shit.

Oh yeah.. most matches are boring. Actually.. almost all of them now. I've yet to see a good ol' fashioned match. Like Ultimate Warrior vs. Andre. Now THAT was a match.

LOL.

My favorite Jim Ross moment (or atleast one I can recall), was back in 2001:



JR circa September 2001: Bah Gawd Paul - deep down in Austin's heart, he knows that he can't beat Angle!

JR circa December 2001: Bah Gawd King - deep down in Angle's heart, he knows that he can't beat Austin!

I said this in the RAW thread, but I wish one time when the face is being double teamed while his partner is being held by the ref, I just wish that the face would pick up the ref and turn him around

In my opinion, most marks would prefer shorter matches (more conclusion oriented).

Since marks compose of 90-95% of the fanbase, one would think that it would be wise to cater to them.

There is still a place for the longer matches, but it should be done on occassion.

Almost everything done in the year 2000 was perfect IMO.

Can't help but agree with tag team matches being boring. Alittle change now and then but nope. There's Resistance beating on Benoit or whoever while his partner is trying to get the ref to look, etc. But what can you do, as it's been like that for decades. It's usually the more interesting characters that change those rules at times, like I thought in the recent Rey v. Eddie match (both faces) when the ref caught the face Eddie cheating was different and fun. But either way, it shows you that the ref's rules are not always the same as some will DQ without warning and others don't DQ, even after ten warnings and attempts.

And yeah, Paul, Eugene = Ratings! ** AIRPLANE SPINS ! ** God, it's gonna be a long couple of months without that character.

I love longer matches....I would love to get my hands on some of the old Flair footage when he had those hour long matches back before WcW. I heard that some of those were really good.
