Ziggler gets a Wrestling Thread...It's About Damn Time!!!

[Hunter Rider]

Who eliminated Sandow?

 

[Metallo]

Whoever it was is on my sh** list.

 

[The Sage]

Were Punk and Bryan in this match?

 

[The Sage]

Are they redeeming Zack Ryder?!

 

[Metallo]

Yeah Broski!

 

[Trainwreck2100]

Who eliminated Sandow?

ryder

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

I hope this means they'll start pushing Zack again.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Every other person has been the GM for both shows but we should have known when the Battle Royale win was only to be GM of SD that it was not likely to be a bigger star.

Even so nice to see a fresh ending and what seems like a possible renewal of Ryder's push.

 

[Metallo]

ryder

Tooooooooooooooooorn!

 

[Karelia]

WWWYKI.

Glad to see he finally won something. Ryder's one of the few I find to be reeking of coolosity these days.

 

[Wheels]

Can't wait for Friday Night Brodown next week.

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

Zack needs to get revenge on Eve and Kane next week, Cena should be a part of that too, but we all know there is no chance in hell of that happening.

At least Ziggler and Rhodes are in MITB. Now we have two guys who feel like legit possible winners.

 

[Metallo]

As much as I like Rhodes I hope Ziggler wins it. Rhodes is the better talker but it just feels like its time for Ziggler to be elevated and he's ready in every other way. He can get better on the stick ala Bret hart.

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

Just saw Hunter's avatar for the first time...

Mah goodness!

I would be fine with either man winning, but Rhodes has a better chance to be booked stronger given that his father works for the company. I would prefer Ziggler but I could see him being booked like Bryan and Punk where he's jobbing alot while holding the briefcase.

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

I'm guessing that there will be another entrant in the WHC MITB match? There's 7 so far. Who should it be?

 

[venom892]

Might be Barrett.He is due to come back soon.

 

[AndrewGilkison]

I don't see any ego involved because I think for Cena and Punk all they want to be is wrestlers, so they aren't jealous because Rock has made a bunch of mainly awful b movies.

Those "awful b movies" are like The Godfather trilogy and Citizen Kane compared to the **** Cena has starred in. Let's be frank, here.

Oh, and it's funny how Cena has starred in his fair share of movies, despite having no interest in being a movie star. Mighty funny, I say.

I don't recall saying Cena's movies were good, in fact I've never seen any of them.

He's the companies star, Vince wants to launch a movie division, who else is going to do it? It was just a job for him for WWE, he's never pursued any part outside of the ones WWE cast him in.

 

[Slushy]

Yes, got my wishes! Sheamus Vs. Del Rio and Cody and Ziggler in MITB!

At least Ziggler and Rhodes are in MITB. Now we have two guys who feel like legit possible winners.

I'm so torn on this. Zigger is the better wrestler, but Cody is better at everything else. ARGH!

Barrett although if he joins, that will make the match heel dominated as you have Sandom, A-Train, Ziggler, AND Rhodes compared to Christian, Santino, and Kidd. If Wade doesn't make it back in time, I hope Kofi gets put in there to even the playing fields as well as steal the show again.

If we're being frank Cena has NEVER done a piece of sh** as bad as Doom. Or Tooth Fairy.

And yeah it "funny" because what you're saying is a real WTF. Just because Cena has made some movies it doesn't mean he wants to leave wrestling and be a "movie star."

Or did you forget all the other wrestlers who have done films that didn't have any interest in being "movie stars" and leaving the wrestling business for good. Even The Undertaker has done films and tv. As far as I know he never had any interest in leaving wrestling to make movies. Same is true for HHH, Edge, Verne Gagne, Terry Funk, Sting, Kane, Big Show, and a lot of other guys.

What Cena has done is no different than what a lot of guys have done before him. Piper did want a career in the movies so he LEFT the business for a while. Ventura even made a stronger go at it in films and tv. Even Hogan tried harder than Cena. If Cena wanted to be a movie star as much as you claim he would have been trying a lot harder than he is. Movies have been side projects for him but his priority has been WWE. And even when he DID make movies it was to expand the WWE brand name.

But how much of that is his lack of interest in being a movie star and more of Hollywood's lack of interest in having John Cena star in their movies?

I mean, how many major directors and producers want to cast Cena as a leading man in something they are making (that they bank on being successful)?

If we're being Frank Cena has NEVER done a piece of sh** as bad as Doom. Or Tooth Fairy.

Cena has never made a movie as good as The Rundown, so Rock is still ahead of him there.

The difference. None of those men ever had the opportunity to make a career out of it the way Rock was able to. That opportunity never existed for them and it never will for Cena.

That's fine. There is nothing wrong with that. Not everyone gets the opportunity to become a movie star.

But I think Rock gets too much **** in wrestling circles and on the Net (this board in particular) over "selling out" and becoming a movie star. I would've rather him "sell out" and become a movie star and then come back to do one or two matches a year, rather then be like Ric Flair and keep wrestling until his 70's because he owes money to four ex-wives, or dying before his 40th birthday like has happened to so many wrestlers this past decade.

Cenas probably gotten offers and never taken many of them. Cenas shown he can make money and Hollywood likes money. People with less talent than him have been given opportunities. Talents isn't aways even a big factor.

Other wrestlers have gotten small parts and worked their way up. The Rock's first role wasn't some huge part for a leading man. Guys like HHH and Nash and Goldberg have gotten small roles and none of them have the more traditional Hollywood look that Cena has.

Who gives a damn about Rock or Cena's movie careers? What I care about is what they do in WWE.
