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

Just read the story on the news. lol@ Wack ass Batista and Orton being suspended but :( at King Booker and Mr. Kennedy. Oh well you do the time, you do the crime.
Anyway Professional Wrestling is dying so who cares?

Just bury it.

Fans are already disintersted in the storylines and the main eventers presented.There's no charasmatic wrestlers with good on mic delivery (Rock and Austin) or great in ring wrestlers who can sell a crowd on funamentals ( Four Horseman, Bret Hart), most are probably complacent due to lack of competition ( its virtually a monopoly, TNA cant compete budgest-wise, though they try). It's peaked creativley and athleticaly and this culture of better bodies is causing more people to take steroids to replace in ring talent (though it was always a thing). I mean UFC ovetook them. How can they let that happen?

Just bury it. I loved it, We all loved it but it's dead as Kurt Angle will be in 5 years....

I agree with all of this entirely. It has just declined so much in terms of quality. I'll watch it very occasionally these days, and I mean VERY occasionally, like once every couple of months, and there just isn't anything interesting.

It wasn't that long ago they had alot of interesting guys who were great to watch. Austin, Rock, HHH, Taker, Angle, etc etc. You had ALOT of good main eventer talent. HHH and Taker are still there, but there isn't anyone good for them to fued with, so whats the point?

These days the two main good guys are jokes. Cena - the older fans ****ing hate Cena because he just has no personality, or in ring talent. The only reason younger fans like him is beause they're so gullible and eat up the bull**** rapper angle. Batista - a ****ing steroid freak. Again, he doesn't have even a fraction of the personality the Rock or Austin had.

The problem with wrestling these days is there isn't anyone like Austin or Rock that can make a crowd go crazy like they could. Both Austin and Rock had the ability to make the whole crowd, young and old, go absolutely ape **** bananas. Nobody in the WWE currently has that ability.

Even the tag teams were better only a short time ago. Edge and Christian, Hardy Boyz, Dudley Boyz, some good tag team talent that had excellent matches. There aren't any good tag teams anymore.

Meh, professional wrestling time has come and gone.
 
If this is the case, then haven't they been dealing with these sorts of problems for a long time now? It can't just be now.

What you think everyone is complaining about (fans, editors, blogs, mainstream media etc etc etc)?

Maybe (gasp) they are actually clean. This is what ruins wrestling for me as a fan....other fans who want wrestlers they don't like to be in trouble, or fired, or suspended....but god forbid someone they like gets in trouble, then it's all HE"S INNOCENT....hypocrites

Like I implied, there the franchise boys, so they probably didnt make them even take a test (HHH too)

Come on BL you don't think Cena developed and maintains his physique on Whey protein and creatine alone do you?

I wouldn't know, but considering the list that was released has names of individuals who have been either the "WWE" or "world champion" at one time or another, and one of those names is the current "ECW" champion...I'm of the mind that everyone who is taking or ingesting something they aren't supposed to be will get caught eventually. Maybe he'll get caught next week...maybe today...no one really knows.
 
Any Jericho return updates? What's the latest news (if any) dudes?
 
On wiki it says they're working through the paperwork.. and that hasn't been edited or deleted for a while now.

In any case it will be at least 2-3 months before he's in any kind of shape to wrestle though.....they could do a whole revenge thing though...getting back at Cena for getting him "fired"
 
I think they really need someone like him right now... man, I've never seen someone with as much charisma as Y2J.
 
They really oughta just make Cena a heel. Everyone hates him anyway. Its just not right to see a Champion thats supposed to be the good guy get booed every show.

he gets booed depending on where they are.....down south they love him..same with the west coast. it's the northern chunk of the states where the boos seem loudest.. here's the hook...the Women and the Kids love him....that right there is enough to keep him a good guy....i'm from CT and go to shows when I can....most of the booing i've heard comes from the nosebleeds...and who cares what poor people think anyway.

You are welcome to your opinion on wrestling but it will never die even if WWE were to go under, which is unlikely. Even if they cut ties with many performers over the drug allegations, WWE can always draw on the vast talent pool of the indy scene. Also, consider that pro wrestling has an even larger stronghold in Japan and Mexico. Nobody is investigating NJPW or AAA. Hardcore wrestling fans are never short on options.
 
have we figured who they are selling them to yet?

49erVenom maybe?

True,,,Japan is big on their wrestling....New Japan, HUSTLE....they have a lot of feds....and considering Indy feds seem to be on the rise here in the US...there are 3 here in CT that i know of...

Wrestlers are bigger than rock stars in Japan and Mexico. Certain wrestlers, like Jushin Liger and El Santo, achieve mythic status.
As far as the indies in the US, they are plentiful. I've seen 30 different organizations live over the years. There were 7 that performed in VA in the last two years.
 
theres actually a couple hundred independent promotions in the states
