Getting Noticed By Management
Now let me just say this: I know I am part of the IWC. I know there are a lot of intelligent IWC posters who have some nice ideas. But a lot of the IWC gets on my nerves a lot. So I would like to list my top five problems with the IWC.
#5 Cena fans- Ok, a lot of people in the IWC like John Cena. That's fine. That's cool. I get that. I may not share your like of him but everybody has their favorites. What really pisses me off about Cena fans is that they don't seem to respect other people's opinions.
-When I was on WWE Universe forums I couldn't believe how many "Stop bashing Cena" threads I saw. Seriously? If people want to bash Cena, they are more than welcome to do so. Likewise if you guys want to like Cena, you are also more than welcome to do the same.
-Someone on wrestlingforum calling others out for not cheering for Cena, questioning what kind of society we live in for not cheering for the ultimate good guy but liking edgy characters like Stone Cold and the Rock.
-It'sSoEasy123- you piss me off to a great extent. More than any other Cena fan out there. I get your love for Cena. I disagree that I don't think he's as good of a wrestler as you say he is but if that's what you think then fine but here's the problems I have with you. You say that Cena being the goodie two shoes is not for us. Ok, it isn't. But guess what, do we have to like it? No. I mean if I'm going to watch I have to live with it then I don't have to like it.
You also accuse a lot of the IWC for not supporting the business and that the kiddies are the future, which leads me to my next point.
#4 Contradicting yourselves- People accuse each other of not supporting the business. Then when someone DOES support the business and try to make their voices heard, someone says: "Oh, you don't matter. You're not the target audience." If that's the case, why should I bother?
#3 Eating stuff up- everybody is entitled to their opinion but I also don't get how some people could defend some stuff. How they could defend Sting getting the World Title in TNA out of nowhere or Hardy winning the belt back so soon. How they could defend Eve winning the Divas title at the Rumble out of nowhere or some other stuff like that. I don't get it.
#2 So much complaining- Again, entitled to your opinion but it gets exhausting after awhile. Do you know how many threads I have read over the past year BEGGING for the Rock's return? Now a lot of the IWC hates him. This could go with #4 as well.
How I've seen people demand Zack Ryder on TV then he beats David Hart Smith on Superstars and that I see some Ryder hate.
How I saw so many threads demaning a Morrison push then he wins at TLC against Sheamus and the Morrison hate turns on.
I don't just look for stuff to complain about. If there is something bothering me, I will complain. If there is something I really like, I wil praise it.
#1 Over-analyzing
This bothers me to a great extent.
I made the thread asking before what was wrong with spot wrestlers. I still stand by this.
The people who can't take someone seriously because of an appearance. "Z0MG MORRISON'S BOOTS MIDCARD FOR LIFE!!!! CODY HAS NO KNEEPADS I CAN'T TAKE HIM SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!111"
It's more than just that too. It seems like the IWC just wants a bunch of castrated drones in their main event. So Kofi has energy. Doesn't mean it should hold him back. So Cody had a slightly comedic dashing gimmick. Doesn't mean I couldn't take him seriously.
I'm not saying I want Santino in my main event or anything but being someone who can bring comic relief is a way to win me over. So what if someone is funny? Doesn't mean I can't take them seriously. I mean Khali definitely does stupid stuff on TV but if ANY of you met Khali face to face you would shit your pants.
Someone questioning if Sin Cara can get over because we can't see his emotions with his mask. So? That's what makes his gimmick so great: a silent but deadly assasin. A guy who is so mystifying. That's something that makes him cool. But even then who is to say he couldn't sell or tell a story with that mask on?
Kayfabe. The only time IMO kayfabe needs to happen is on the air. Otherwise, who cares? Apparently some people do.
Someone saying we're not supposed to cheer for heels. I like whoever I wanna like. If you give me a reason to cheer for you, I will. For some reason TNA's faces are more appealing than WWE's and WWE's heels are more appealing than TNA's heels IMO.
Yeah I like Miz, Ziggler, Sheamus, Del Rio, Brodus, Swagger, Rhodes, Punk, Ryder a lot. But I also like faces too.
I like Morrison, Bryan, Kingston, Bourne, Tatsu, Sin Cara and of course Christian.
I don't really care for guys like Henry, McIntyre, Reks, Uso's, Riley or Nexus guys outside of Ryan and Punk.
But I'll like who I wish to like whether I am supposed to or not.
Then the people who say Zack Ryder doesn't deserve a push because a youtube channel doesn't equal a push. I agree with this but Ryder is different. He has talent. Can wrestle. Seems like he could actually hold his own on the mic. Curt Hawkins youtube channel sucks. Matt Hardy's is ok but that doesn't mean I think he should main event in TNA. Ryder is different.
I just have all of these gripes. Sorry. I tend to think of myself in a way of the anti-IWC'er. But that's just me.
