I just figured out what's missing in WWE
... besides coherant writing and general creativity.

The King of the Ring PPV. The tournament was brilliant, good mid-card and main event competition. It was the guarenteed time of the year that you had actual wrestling matches on TV. The PPV itself was usually always awesome. The tournament usually put alot of good mid-card talent on display. It also was the best possible way to set up a main-event push.

The Smackdown King of the Ring tournament was... well it was the right idea, but with only smackdown talent... it was lame. It really only works with a combined roster.

If we were going to do one these days, who would you want, and what brackets would you set up?

I don't like tournaments. I don't know why, but with very few exceptions, I have been disappointed by most every wrestling tourny ever. Infact off the top of my head Deadly Games is the only one I can think of that didn't blow three different types of ass.

That having said that, yes, King of the Ring is traditionally a way to get lower or mid card workers over and have them fight some of the upper of even main event guys.

Excellent KOTR PPV tournaments:

God-awful KOTR PPV tournaments:

I think that speaks for itself, as far as where I stand on the KOTR. In 10 years, only two cards that really stood out as fantastic PPVs.

And I'm not prejudiced against tournaments at all. WrestleMania IV, Deadly Game and KOTR 93 are some of my favourite PPVs ever (and WMIV sucked quite bad, I just love it for some unknown reason. The atmosphere, the inclusion of basically every wrestler on the roster, plus excellent commentary is what does it for me, I think.)

How exactly were you "guaranteed actual wrestling matches" on TV? I'm not getting that.

Well, it was more likely to get one match from the tournament than everyone getting byes.

Oh, okay, and when there was no King of the Ring tournament, Raw took place without a single match. Superstars as well, for that matter.

A few months back a RAW had like 2 matches. The KOTR basically guaranteed you at least 3 in a week, plus at least 2 other matches.

In the old school King of the Ring, the tournament happened all in one night, with only qualifiers taking place anywhere else, and sometimes, they'd even do those on PPV the month before. If you had those "at least 3" King of the Ring matches, though, you weren't guaranteed two other matches.

All you did was disguise the usual "there's no wrestling in WWE" as something sorta different, but very similar.

KOTR sucked imo. It was a good way of getting mid card guys over, but then WWE started to fuck that up. The matches were mostly boring and predictable anyway.

I'll always remember that Angle/ Shane Street fight match. Especially when Shane took that sick bump when Angle belly to belly suplexes him on the glass and it didn't break.

I was there live, and while that was a very awesome moment, the Super Angle Slam looked a bit cooler in person.

Aside from the fact that you merely put a new hat on the Undertaker and packaged him as something different, you choce a relatively insignificant portion of this "difference." BAD JIMMY!

Man I wish TNA would stop giving Steiner the mic.

Kevin Nash should do commentary.

I think the King of the Ring Tournament would be a fun thing to bring back as an interpromotional event. Have every single wrestle that's held a Championship be entered, and compete in singles matches on their brand until only one remains, then at Summerslam have them clash. It fills the middle of the year, which is usually pretty vacant. The lack of a King of the Ring PPV makes the year seem less emptier.

They need to stop making RAW shit as well. If Triple H and Shawn Michaels are going to be on TV, they need to wrestle guys like Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas, preparing them for the big time.

I'd love to see HBK put Hass over. Turn that into the KoTR Finals next year.

JBL's Booker T commentary is the highlight of the show. Unless you're refering to Sharmell.

1996 wasn't that great - Vader/Jake wasn't exactly [img]the[/img] five star match of our generation. Still, Austin's two matches were pretty hawt, and Shawn/Davey was great, as was Pillman's promo

1993 KOTR ruled.

They should have some kind of "King of Kings Tournament". Each King of the Ring Winner gets to compete in a tournament, and if they are unable to compete, they select a replacement to compete for them:

Test (Bret Hart's Replacement) vs. Harry Smith (Owen Hart's Replacement)

Viscera vs. Shelton Benjamin (Stone Cold Steve Austin's Replacement)

Triple H vs. Sylvester Terkay (Ken Shamrock's "Replacement")

Chuck Palumbo (Billy Gunn's "Replacement") vs. Kurt Angle

Edge vs. Bobby Lashley (Brock Lesnar's "Replacement")

King Booker vs. Jerry Lawler (Random "King" Appearance)

-Harry Smith and Test are both selected by Bret Hart as Hart had a lot to do with Test's training, and Smith is his relative. Smith wins their match with a Running Powerslam.

-Shelton Benjamin had Stone Cold Steve Austin's support when he first came to RAW. Continuity time (Ha!). Benjamin pins Viscera, which pisses off Charlie Haas, which leads to Haas and Benjamin feuding.

-Just as Triple H is about to beat Sylvester Terkay, Elijah Burke attacks Terkay, giving his associate the disqualification victory. This leads to a tag team match with Terkay & Burke facing DX.

-Kurt Angle forces Chuck Palumbo to submit to the Ankle Lock.

-Bobby Lashley defeats the WWE Champion, Edge, with a Running Powerslam. Lashley is chosen as he has a similar style to Brock Lesnar.

-King Booker defeats Jerry Lawler with the Scissors Kick.

-In the second round, Harry Smith defeats Shelton Benjamin, as Charlie Haas gets involved, continuing the feud with his former partner. Smith gets the pin with the Running Powerslam.

-Sylvester Terkay defeats Kurt Angle, fuelling their ghost rivalry.

-Bobby Lashley defeats the World Heavyweight Champion, King Booker, with a Running Powerslam to advance. Lashley has beaten the WWE Champion and World Heavyweight Champion in back-to-back tournament matches, now.

-In the semi-finals, Sylvester Terkay defeats Harry Smith when Elijah Burke gets involved many times. Bobby Lashley gets a bye, or has a match with Elijah Burke, or something like that.

-In the finals, Sylvester Terkay defeats Bobby Lashley to become the "King of Kings". Elijah Burke then starts to use Triple H's theme music.

That would be a pretty sweet tournament.

Alienoid, a "King of Kings" tournament is a great idea, but watering it down with nothing but "replacements" for the ACTUAL winners would kill it dead before it even started. Why should Lashley (as an example) be given the position earned by Brock Lesnar, despite not having beaten any of the opponents Lesnar had to beat, nor being associated with Lesnar in any way? And especially why have Turkay, who is not over and I doubt he ever will be, become "King of Kings" when he never won a KOTR to begin with??

Of the KOTR winners, only three are no-gos. Bret Hart is unable to wrestle due to a brain injury, Owen Hart is dead, and Billy Gunn is under contract to TNA. Steve Austin is inactive, but he could conceivably work a match if required (and against a "worthy" opponent). Shamrock is not associated with wrestling anymore, but could still work a match if offered anough moolah (cash, not Fabulous). And all other KOTR PPV winners are available.

Additionally, Harley Race claims he could still work another match if he was required. Haku hasn't long retired, if he even has. Jim Duggan is still floating around. Randy Savage competed as recently as last year (although it's doubtful WWE will re-employ the "Macho Man") And Jerry Lawler stills works regularly too (he is an official WWF KOTR, having beaten Bret Hart for the crown at SummerSlam '93). So you still have enough possibilities to make a King Of Kings tourney work. Of course, why bother, because Trips would win it to solidify his "king of kings" moniker anyway.

As a side note, WWE already featured a "King Of Kings" scenario in 1998, when they had Ken Shamrock defeat all previous Kings (they cited the match where Shamrock made Bret tap behind the referees back as his "victory" over Bret) and declared "The World's Most Dangerous Man" as the pre-eminant King of the Ring.
