Bret Hart was respected long before Vince lost most of the ''big guys'' to WCW. Both he and Shawn Michaels were under development for years, and Bret especially had been in the main event picture before Diesel became the WWE Champion. It seems to me Vince could have easily cut those two off his pay roll in order to afford/convince bringing back some of the other big name superstars, but decided against it, since he was adamant a new era was on the horizon. I believe both Shawn and Bret have brought this up during interviews at one time or another. |
Oh yes, it's true it's true!

Well, another thing is that back in '92 there was a huge scandal in WWF with the steroid and drug usage and for some time after that scandal was dropped, the guys were not allowed to use the juice leading to a lot of them shrinking. It might have been that Vince wanted to let some of those bigger guy like Nash and Hall and Warrior go and showcase smaller guys to help clear that image of massive, bulging biceps flexing all over the screen. IDK, but I find it hard to believe with Vince being so focused on pushing larger wrestlers over smaller ones that he did it willingly. Maybe Shawn and Bret were eyeing leaving WWF at the time also? |

The following are highlights from Seth Rollins' interview with The National: On his character: “My character is very polarizing, sure. There’s a lot of stuff I’ve done over the past year that people haven’t been too pleased about – and to be the best at anything, you’ve gotta make some enemies. So call me number 1 villain, call me hero, call me top guy in WWE. Whatever you want, it doesn’t matter to me. I’m happy with what I’ve done to get here.” On who he wants to face at WrestleMania 31: “Whoever the WWE World Heavyweight Champion is at that point, it doesn’t matter. As long as the title’s on the line, that’s the match I want to be in.” On his in-ring style: “I’m well-versed on the mat, but I can pick up people much bigger than me. I can hang with anybody, I can trade power moves, I can fly through the air. Maybe there’s no one in the history of WWE who can say they can do all those things.” |

Mick Foley recently posted the following blog on his official Facebook page: ''I’ve been asked quite a bit over the past several days for my opinion on CM Punk’s decision to sign with UFC. I applaud it. While I have no idea how Punk will fare with top level MMA competitors, I do know that no one will out-train him or out-work him, and that, whether he wins or loses, succeeds or fails, he’s likely to be responsible for a few incredible PPV buy-rates – which had been a cause of concern for him since the dawning of the #WWENetwork…which, last time I checked was only $9.99 a month. Just as importantly, #CMPunk won’t end up sitting on his couch 10 years from now, muttering the two dirtiest words in the English language: “what if”?'' EDIT: This was actually from a couple of days ago, but I've only just found out about it now. Edited by pokajabba, Dec 21 2014, 11:39:49 PM.

True, but that's why guys like Ryder, Gabriel, etc who have loads of talent don't get a shot |

I think a part of it was because Bret and Shawn were stubborn as fuck, knew they had the talent, and refused to accept anything less. Jericho pointed out in his new book that he knows that Vince likes when the talent sticks up for themselves and arent afraid to tell off someone else (which is why Kofi had to wrestle Vince). So I think guys need to fight for better spots rather than accepting what is given to them. |

The difference is that back then, Vince was in control of everything. Vince was pretty much creative back then, sure, there was a little Pat Patterson also, but it was all Vince. Today, there are dozens of writers and dozens more guys like Triple H and Michael Hayes and those guys are so close to Vince and have his ear. You stick up for yourself to Vince, he respects that, you do it to Triple H or Hayes and you're fucked. There's so many egos that rampage backstage the guys can't breathe. One uber monster is beatable, because he's not everywhere while a bunch of little minions are impossible to avoid. |

Well no, a guy like Ziggler bitches about how he's handled on Twitter, and is then punished for it on TV until he finally shapes up his online persona. I don't imagine the situation is too different backstage... |

Yup, someone posted the full video of that a while back. She grew up to take Lita's spot in the WWE, AND marry her ex. Now if that ain't a fan, I don't know what is.

The question is does AJ want to be like Lita or BE Lita? |

''New Japan Pro Wrestling’s “NJPWWorld” on demand service (their version of the WWE Network) achieved over 10,000 subscribers in its first 3 weeks of service, according to a report at Enuhito.com. This translates to approximately 1.2 million yen per year in income for NJPW. NJPW Takaaki Kidani previously stated 30,000 subscribers was a realistic goal for the first year, but now it appears they will reach that much sooner. The NJPW Documentary series is said to be one of the most popular features on NJPWWorld. The first two editions focus on Hiroshi Tanahashi and Kazuchika Okada.''
