Vince Doesn't See Money in the Wrestling Thread

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

What DVD that WWE hasn't released would you like to see most? I'd like to see a top busts/flash in the pan countdown. That would be controversial.

Undertaker documentary out of character, I think there is a strong possibility of this happening within the next few years.

A Ruthless Aggression Era DVD.

CM Punk: Best In the World Part II. Shouldnt be released until his career is over. Covering where part I left off untill his retirement.

Kurt Angle documentary.

Christian documentary.

 

[TX85]

Apparently this is in the August issue of WWE Magazine..

Pretty cool IF true,I'm surprised Warrior agreed to be in the game even though he was in All Stars But I'm guessing 2K offered him a very nice pay check!

Now that is a surprise. Will recreate the match where Triple H jobbed to him. Hope it's not shopped.

I'll be doing the same too, if so.

 

[Donnie Darko]

I could see that happening but I'd like to hear what Vince has to say about Ahmed Johnson and what Dusty's and other WCW employees thoughts on Van Hammer are. As well as plenty of others.

I'd definitely like to see it if it was "fair" I guess. They'd definitely have to bring up Glacier, since he was hyped for a long time through vignettes and promos and then never did anything. Goldberg in WWF/E is another that didn't live up to the hype.

Paul Heyman's father passed away. Thanks for financially backing ECW, Richard. No doubt you will be missed by your loved ones.

It's good to see London and Kendrick are still teaming together. It seemed like WWE was pushing them to the moon, and then... nothing. Split them up, gave Kendrick a bit of a singles push, and then they both disappeared. Was it all because London laughed during the exploding limo scene?

It's a shame about both of them, as they used to be two of my favourites when they were in the E.

Reports have surfaced online over the past month that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson may be involved in an upcoming lead role in the new Terminator film, which is planned as the start of a new trilogy.

PWInsider confirmed earlier today that those reports are just rumors, and as of right now their is nothing has been that confirmed of the former WWE Champion's involvement.

That would be mean but insightful:

Ahmed Johnson, Brian Kendrick, Bobby Lashley, Outback Jack (a lot of hype footage shot for a nobody), Kenzo Suzuki (really? that's the best you managed to get out of Japan?), Tiger Ali Singh ...

I doubt it, have you seen the contracts that even guys like Rhodes and Sandow are on for downside guarantees? and this is before all the bonuses and merch money.

Head & shoulders above Magnus, Barett and McIntyre? quite possibly, but I'd take Sheamus and Cesaro any day over him. The reason he isn't in WWE is simple, he doesn't have enough to make it outside of a promotion where all that matters is workrate.

Or because he wasn't interested enough to actively pursue a WWE contract. Considering that Adrian Neville (whom was given the spot monkey tag) has made it into the company and became a popular character in NXT, I'm sure Devitt easily could if he wanted to. We're talking about a company that employs Jack Swagger, Fandango and Ryback after all....

Not to mention, Im sure WWE could use a guy Iike him in the midcard that can put on matches like this: http://youtu.be/HZt01rQmZm4

Just saying....

ION TV is re-running last week's Main Event right now!

Also keep in mind that once the WWE signs you, most likely you will spend minimum 1 year in developmental, with no guarantee you'll ever be on the main roster. And from what I have heard, those developmental contracts can barely keep a roof over your head.

So basically we can agree that a wrestler not being in big promotions doesn't automatically mean that he/she is not good enough to adapt beyond workrate right? Lol

True. I think if you opened up the books, the major Japanese promotions make TNA look bush league.

Not to mention a fair bit of wrestlers have honed their craft working in Japan...such as Jericho, Bret Hart, Benoit, Daniel Bryan, Ric Flair, CM Punk and many others.

In fact, you could say any wrestler that came out of the Stampede is essentially trained in Japan, as the main trainers in Stampede were Japanese, as was the subsequent working style they developed.

See Japan isn't ALL about the "Stiff" style. Lol
