    The dual-branded tag team divisions will collapse, sooner or later.

    The key difference I see between "then" and "now" in terms of brand split tag titles is that: before you didn't have ANY teams. Just two singles guys in a spot. The Big Show and Jericho. The Big Show and Kane. The Big Show and Miz. When a real "team" would come along, like La Resistance, they...

    80s Stars That Would Fit In Current Day WWE

    What I would give to see Bray Wyatt walk in to the Snake Pit and have an interview with Jake The Snake Roberts. Would they be friends? Do the snakes follow the path of the buzzards? Or would they be bitter enemies, buzzard and snake fighting over a carcass. I wouldn't even mind seeing today's...

    Reason for WWE viewership decreases

    I made this comment on another forum, but a week or so ago the Chicago Blackhawks vs the St. Louis Blues were tied in the third peroid of game seven, going in to overtime. Or, you could stick around and watch another rendition of Alberto del Rio vs Roman Reigns. You know Roman isn't going to...

    Dean Ambrose's hair

    Only if it's gonna be in some kind of Hair vs. Something match. If you're gonna do it, might as well sell some tickets for it. So, who should put up their Hair/Mask/whatever vs. Him for it?

    CM Punk Speculation

    I see you're not familiar with the concepts of investments, and compound interest. Plus, you have no idea what his lifestyle is like now that he's no longer on the road. One could easily retire, make some living adjustments, and still live very well in an area like Chicago on that kind of...

    At least their theme song was good

    I was a big fan of Ezikel Jackson's theme, "Domination". It's great to work out or run to. I also really enjoyed Cryme Tyme's theme. I'd pop every time I heard "Brooklyn, Brooklyn!" I feel like music makes or breaks the character in the WWE. It literally sets the tone. I wonder when Jim...

    Nobody cheats anymore?

    I blame that string of three or four PPVs where HHH kept the belt via DQ finish, usually by hitting someone with a hammer. I believe overuse, and the rise + fall of the hardcore Memphis/ECW style, has led to heels that are just jerks and occasional liars, but not often cheats. Really think...

    WWE Cave, Release Non-Shit Daniel Bryan Merchandise: Join The Movement

    Ironically, the shirt you chose to link to is, itself, referencing one of Shepherd Farley's other works, his iconic HOPE image from Obama's first campaign: And yes, the same Shepherd Farley is responsible for both the Andre the Giant has a Posse image, as well as Obama's HOPE.

    WWE Network Rated PG?

    From their FAQ: http://www.wwe.com/help#twenty-six They also use the phrase "uncut and uncensored" several times throughout the FAQ. So no, it doesn't sound like they will be going through and giving everything a sanitation pass. With some of those ECW shows, that would be a pretty impossible...

    Where do you see WWE Network in 10 years?

    We'll never know all the numbers involved, after fees they pay to the PPV providers, et all. But one also has to consider if they get between 750 thousand and 1 million subscribers over the whole year, that has to be a net gain versus doing a million Wrestlemania PPV buys and only a few hundred...

    Where do you see WWE Network in 10 years?

    I think they'll let the price point get away from them, in much the same way that PPV rates have climbed over the years. They'll miss the fact that so many people subscribe to Netflix because the pricepoint is so miniscule that it lowers the barrier of entry to even try the product, and actively...

    Would You Push #13: Sweet T (Tensai)

    I don't often engage in fantasy booking, but I had an easy idea to fix Tensai before they rebooted him as Sweet T. He wasn't getting over because he was a fat white man, cutting promos in Japanese. It didn't make a lick of sense to anyone. So you have him come out and cut one in English. Have...

    Has the WWE killed "Pro Wrestling"?

    They didn't monopolize it. They globalized it. Look at the business they do when they go overseas. People are nuts for the WWE product all over the globe, now more than ever before. If they monopolized it, then where are we getting all these indie wrestler signings from? Business is cyclical...

    WWE to mock Glenn Beck on Raw

    Mocking a right wing extremist who isn't even on TV anymore? An advertised fight between two old non-wrestlers? Boy it's gonna be a hot card Monday night in Dallas.

    Why doesnt Big E Langston just kick ass?

    "Why doesnt big e langston just kick ass?" Because he doesn't have to. He walks softly, and carries a big stick as it were. You already believe he's a monster, and he's barely done anything. You know it's a matter of when, not if, with this guy. And when they pull the trigger on "when" you...
