WWE: Losing the War?

[phillyfan4life]

I agree,1999-2004 were the best years in wwe. Now u have Matches that end in DQ all the F'ing its so pointless. You also have characters like kevin thorn and carlito? Come on wake up wwe bring back some but not all the ledgends austin,rock,hogan,biker taker,these were the ones that made wwe intresting and fun to whatch.

For all who say the WWE product sucks, do you even watch ECW or SD? Those two shows contain some of the best pure wrestling action today. Heck, SD's main event is far better than RAWs and with the exception of BDV, everyone on ECW has potential of putting on great matches.

Secondly, Untill TNA can straighten their creative decisions, they will not be close to WWE. Yes their wrestlers can do cool flippies and they might drop someone on the head. However, their finishes are terrible(run in, ooh another run-in....and finally another run in) and their backstage skits are worse than the Hornswaggle skits.

The reason why alot of people say they're not interested in the WWE anymore is because if you've been a fan long enough it gets to a point where you've basically seen it all! We've seen all the possible matches that can happen, all the storylines that they can pull, etc.

When I recently started watching TNA I became interested because it was new to me. I didnt know all the wrestlers ( I still don't ) I couldnt predict matches because I don't know who's who & whats what. It's natural for someone to get tired of the same ol' same & look to something new. Who knows maybe in a few years I'll get tired of TNA & turn over to WWE & see new things.

To each his own.

what? i have seen predictions on these websites and most of the time they are wrong.... and when you guess who the winner of the match will be, your at a 50-50 chance... or 1 out of 4 if its a 4 man match... either way if you lose interest then you lose interest... i personally have enjoyed the recent things that have happened on WWE...

50-50??? Come on now!!!
The only matches that are SLIGHTLY unpredictable are PPVS.

Based on what you're saying it's like when Lilian announces two wrestlers for a match you don't know who's gonna win. I'm not trying to sound phsycic or nothing but 95% of the time I know who will win the match already. It's obvious. Watch.....

Next time these people fight in a match they'll win!!! (write em down)

Jeff Hardy
Mr. Kennedy
Ric Flair
Chris Jericho
HHH
Hornswaggle
Mickie James
Chuck Palumbo
Cody Rhodes

Should I go on?

i think i just proved that the wwe is not losing any war... even the guy that said he lost interest in wwe just named off a bunch of wwe stars and knows the storylines... idk... i will write these names down but i dont think they have anything to do with the war...

I'm suppossed to forget who wrestles for the co. because I don't watch anymore?? I used those names because those are the people that win everytime they step in a ring right?? What's the point of watching em hype up a match to which I already know the outcome?? I don't know the storylines as of now.....But judging by your response they are indeed in storylines which proves MY same ol' same point.

you ain't the only one guy. I just started watching Raw again after a good 2 to 3 months of not watching it. I only started watching it again because of all the Chris Jericho hype. If it wasn't for that, I'd be doing something else monday nights. With Jericho back and this new Ric Flair storyline, and most importantly Cena being injured, I could watch Raw again FINALLY.

Sorry hit enter when I wasn't done, as far as them losing the war, I don't think they're losing. If anything, they're probably getting wind of TNA right now. It's gonna take at least another year and a half for TNA to REALLY getting popping and to really start to circulate. They got Angle, Christian, Booker T, Samoa Joe, Kev Nash, X-Division, Team 3d, The Steiners, they definitely got talent. It's just going to take a while for them to really cement things and get something going. right now I don't think they're highlighting their best stuff. The X-division has really taken a backseat to the Heavyweight p33ps but its not like they're non-existent. WWE right now is just probably realizing the threat. Are they losing, absolutely not. It's going to take a little more time and effort to get to that status.

yes! TNA is 100000000 x better than WWE, What once was an amazing show is now gone and destroyed, Jeff Hardy, Kahli, Mysterio as main eventers, and Cenas popularity has made the WWE an embarrasment to what it once was, a total joke. 3 brands??!?! Go back to 1 show, its stupid to have split it up to 2 shows much less 3 now. I watch TNA and im reminded of the good ole days and hopefully TNA will push WWE out of business in about 10 years or so.

Haha yeah an embarrassment. That's why Cena's products make millions for the WWE each year and the word about the WWE is getting spread throughout the whole country and other countries thanks to the WWE's most hardest worker, John Cena.

 

[greer44644]

yes it may seem like the wwe is lossing the war .... but in my opinion there is no war really .. imean they do take pokes at each other here and there but war no way... but stop and look at it if there is a (WAR) then why did the wwe double there tv veiwngs from 2006... more and more people are still buying ppv's and merchandise ... obviously it seems bad for tna in there part although the fan ratings have gone up the tna organization is still in dept ... untill they are out of it i think the wwe is winning this (WAR) but if a third promo is added then there will be a war lol

Hmmm ok its great that he makes the WWE money, BUT say 4 or 5 years ago, if someone told u the biggest Superstar in the WWE was gonna be a wigger, u wouldnt think the WWE went to hell?

I guess not. But if you'd told me that Stunning Steve Austin or one half of The Rockers were going to be the biggest star in the company I'd have told you to lay off the crack.

Thing is, time's change. The WWE's done all the hard work, messing up when there's no serious competition would be ridiculous on their part, as well as pissing off the shareholders. So what do they do? What any sane company would do, take out the risk factor, play it safe. I suppose that's pretty much why it follows the basic formula created all those years ago, and why it's so predictable.

Is WWE losing the war? Not in any sense really. While I prefer the TNA product, the WWE product is designed so much better, it finds mainstream success and keeps the ratings consistent. TNA are climbing up to that point, but that don't quite have it down yet.
