The Boss
'The Boss' Of Pro Wrestling
You're trying to associate this with pro wrestling. This will be 100% "WWE Product" meaning it's all about show - not wrestling. The "title" is simply a gimmick used as a reason for the Legends to lace up the boots again.Years ago during NBA All Star Weekend the NBA would host a Legends Game. It was a disaster. Some of the greatest names in league history trying to relive past glory but mostly just spent their time tearing ligaments. I'm not saying that is what is going to happen with wrestlers but the body has limits.
Still though, I am old so I like seeing guys that I grew up with. I think promoting an occassional legends match may have a place. When I was a kid I remember seeing a gray haired Bruno Sammartino slap around a heel (may have been Macho) and that moment really stuck with me and made me a bigger fan.
No Legends Title is necessary and there is no reason to make a competitor a surprise (its probably too hard to keep the surprises interesting). WWE should consider throwing and promoting this type of match on Main Event or Smackdown and it would certainly draw me in and maybe some young fans as well who want to learn about prior generations of talent.
Putting it on Raw is likely a crowd momentum killer.
You must remember this is WWE. It's not about pro wrestling. It's about show. That's why this would fit in so well there. It wouldn't work in TNA or ROH. But it's perfect for WWE.
