Prax, whatever you're smoking, can you hook me up with some?
Your opinions couldn't be more wrong. To say a guy like Cena gives 110% is absolute horse shit and I don't understand how you could believe such a thing. If Cena were giving 110% than maybe he would've taken it upon himself to learn more than ten or fifteen moves. Seriously, the only match I've ever seen him in where he showed marginal talent at best was his jobber debut against Angle a few years ago. You want to know why people don't like the 80s brawler style? Because it's the year 2007. That shit was okay back than, when people didn't have a choice. When there was no internet to watch indy wrestling on, no ECW, no TNA, no attitude era, that was a day when all you had to do to be a successful wrestler was to train for a few years on how to bodyslam, dropkick, etc (the basics) and that was cool for that era, because it fits it perfectly. That's not to say that there weren't classic matches in the 80s because obviously there were dozens and dozens of them between skilled wrestlers who decided to actually go and learn more than the basic set of moves you learn at three hundred dollar wrestling school. In this day and age, he's garbage. Maybe we would like him better if it was 1987 but the fact is that it isn't. Wrestlers these days actually know how to put on a good match at the drop of a hat, and have trained years and years and years all over the world learning all styles to perfection. It's just another case of evolution, everything evolves. To say Cena is good in the ring is like saying Betamax is just as good as DVD players. Sure, back in the day it was good, but there's a reason why things evolved and thats because the stagnant past was killing the sport and if WWE didn't change in the mid 90s they would've been taken over by WCW.
I'm not even going to get into Lashley, because the argument is the same as above. To say these guys give us their all is an insult to wrestling fan's intelligence. If they gave it their all they wouldn't stink up every single friggin match they appear in, week after week after week after week. Not to mention the incredibly undeserved title reigns of Cena and Lashley, but I won't get into that either. Lashley should've stuck to amateur wrestling where you don't have to perform quality matches for an audience, you just have to pin your opponent in a minute or two. There's a reason why amateur wrestlers don't cut promos, and this man is why.
I hope I'm not being too hard on you, but I just can't understand how anyone could interpret what these two men do as anything more than drivel.
