What next for the WWE, does it have a reason to exist?

[Spider-Fett]

I'll tell ya whats next...a huge probe and its not going through the backdoor
Politicians, prosecutors and the media are so bizzy going after the MLB and never thought to do this?

Except for one small problem, MLB is a competative sport.

Wrestling is not.

No, that's where Vince Mcmahon might go along with a number of others.

Let's hope they initiate some real reform and don't just put on a dog & pony show. I'm expecting the latter.

I'm not so sure, the WWE is a much easier target than real sports imo.

The first problem is that I haven't heard any talk about mandatory time off, retirement funds, counseling for alcohol & painkiller addiction ( that might have something to do with the fact that many of Congressional members have been drug abusers in the past too ) or any other problem that doesn't involve steroids. So I don't expect any real changes in the business. That's a shame since fans like myself have known for 20 years that some reform needs to happen.

 

[BlackLantern]

I agree they should do like a month off season from like mid December to Mid January

Official word from Chris himself....he is basically retired...if he came back it would only be short term

 

[aaron]

That truly saddens me

although...

In a recent interview in the Baltimore Sun, Jericho announced his full time return to the ring.[5] On July 9, 2007, Jericho appeared on the Larry King Live commenting on the death of Chris Benoit. Returning from a commercial break, Larry King asked Jericho if he was fired permanently or if he was coming back. Jericho replied that he currently was going through the paperwork and working on coming back.

 

[BlackLantern]

the guy did give close to 15 years to wrestling already.....if he comes back...that's great....but if he doesn't i cant fault the guy

 

[SalaciousVC]

mcmahon having an illegetimate child is the most ****ing dumbest storyline ever,mae young giving birth to a hand is better

Yeah, Jericho is coming back soon.
You do know why though?

...just like Hogan, Jericho needs some money.

Both sum up where the WWE is aimed.

I'd like to see him come back for a short run since WWE has so many stars on the shelf with injuries right now. Yet, I can't fault him for wanting to move on with his life. That's probably the right thing to do.

I hope it's umaga. t:

 

[Warhammer]

More than likely, it's Kennedy.

 

[R0rschach]

That's kinda obvious with the name and all.
I sure hope it's not cause he's kinda lame.

 

[Warhammer]

I like Kennedy, but yeah, that is the rumor on the net.
It's also very plausible not only because of his name, but due to him being moved to RAW and not really doing anything. Also, he is hyped up to be the next Stone Cold.

 

[chamber-music]

I can't believe Crush is Dead too. Apparently his the 108th wrestler to die before reaching the age of 50 in a decade.

R.I.P dude

How can you look at Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa and not say baseball is an easy target. Sure it's easy to single out wrestling, but in my mind, steriods in wrestling is kinda like all the stars doing drugs without consequences (cops could bust someone like Snoop Dogg or Kenny Rogers anytime they wanted for a big weed bust) because it's not a competetive sport it's a TV show. You just want wrestling shut down because you don't like it.

 

[DeaDheaD]

Considering the WWE is getting ready to do a story where Vince is the illigitimate father of Mr Kennedy, Yeah its time for McMahon and co. to go away.
