Fun's my Chinese neighbour's name
This question came to me this afternoon when I was thinking about all the debate on 'big names' from the likes of ROH etc. There is no doubt in my mind that the likes of AJ Styles and CM Punk have proven that it is possible to make the move to larger companies and become successful, but what about the other names?
Now, this question has two prongs to it, since I believe that yes, it is possible to make the move up to bigger companies, and just because some have failed, doesn't mean all will. But I can't help think of the likes of ECW and WCW. Both companies had big names (RVD, Raven Diamond Dallas Page, Booker T), yet not one of these names ever enjoyed the success attained by say HHH or Undertaker - mainstays in the company.
Take Vader...massive in Japan, a success in WCW, but Vince seemed to have reluctance to push him to the levels he attained elsewhere.
So with my thoughts in mind...is it better to be the big fish in a smaller pond, than to move up and be buried by the HHHs of the bigger leagues.
