Thread for the truly heartbreaking stories that were supposed to happen but didn't.

Gregory Helms is a really sad story about what couldve been. He was given the green light for a huge main event push that would have seen him win the World Heavyweight title around 2007- 2008 and be a headlining superstar. Vince had a lot of high hopes for Helms mostly for his dedication and willingness to just go with the flow. Helms was going to be bigger than ever. That was derailed when he was in his motorcycle accident back in may of 2007.

It was also rumored that had he not gone back to his hurricane Helms gimmick during his 2008 return, he could have been put back into his place he was in prior to the accident and been a threat for a world title run. Instead he had a mediocre run as the hurricane from 08-2010 when ECW went defunct for the 2nd time. Such a bummer.

His neck injury put him on thin ice, and then he got that DUI while he had THAT GUT

Tough break. He was in TNA's Bound for Glory this year just for a bit and still looked out of shape.
>>
>>803937
Yeah tough break about his neck. Hes wrestling on borrowed time. And what's worse is he was significantly older than Edge when his happened. I'll give Helms another 5 years at most before he hangs up the Cape and mask

What if WWE made their schedule more reasonable (breaks between tours like puro or less nights wrestling per week) which allowed them to de-sterilize their style and have fresh matches?

Will he be the best in the world in the UFC?
66 posts and 12 images submitted.
>>
hes a barely trained amateur that was only allowed in because he brings a draw

he has a background in kempo, like every 6 year old that has ever taken a karate class
and a blue belt in jiujitsu.
They are going to throw him up against a cream puff a few times to see if he can even survive against low tier people before they let him fight actual fighters.
>>
>>803861
Wouldn't it make them more money to pair him up against a legit world class fighter in his first fight? I mean he fights a bunch of no name amateurs and potentially loses, the hype will die down when people realize he sucks. He fights someone legit, Dana gets a huge payday and gets to shittalk pro wrestling as a former world champion gets knocked the fuck out in 10 seconds of his UFC debut.

Am I the only one who thinks that 2015 has been an overall bad year for wrestling? From deaths in the ring, deaths of legends all over the place, forced pushes, low ratings or even being kicked off their network, shoot fights, premature retirements, wrestlers leaving their companies, and a large sum of injuries?

The last year that I can recall that had a ton of shit wreck everybody was 2007.

He has no chin
>>
>>800330
Holds his chin too high, hands a bit too low for carrying the chin so high, footwork is almost nonexistent and he likes to work a reaching, prodding jab that has no real threat to it and gets him swarmed in the first. When he squares up and throws heavier jabs they at least seem to have an effect. Not a whole lot of variety, but he does know to use his range against the shorter guy, clinch when he's in trouble and go for the kill when the other guy is hurt. He clearly had more stamina, which is good. Overall, an amateur and not the quality type, what the crap would you expect.

I work a local promotion in Iowa and I've taken notice to a shit ton of smart-marks in my crowd and for some reason 4chan is the place to be to talk about ir

Listen, being a wrestling smark isn't bad. 80% are assholes who seek to destroy every bit of enjoyment one can get from pro wrestling. But that doesn't mean being a smark is a bad thing.

Go ahead and be a smark, Critique our craft. Judge the stories and spots and characters til your heart's content. But do it AT HOME! That should be a law.

Going to a live event and being your dickish self in a crowd is retarded as shit. People are there to enjoy the show and these degenerates are spewing shit during the performance. Its sickening.

I've worked a match and mid match we worked in a chin lock. Some pimple faced puke shouted "Stall Hold!" At the top of his lungs. He did that through the whole match and we had him removed from the show. People like that are irritating. Pro Wrestling is an art. Treat it like one.

Some people, the good few, are decent enough to go to an event and mold with the crowd. I go to WWE events and I'll boo the heel and cheer the face. Its called doing your job. Even as a fan. If you're a faggot smark who shits on anything wrestling, then for the love of god, if you know so much about the biz, YOU do your part and don't break kayfabe.

As a smark fan, just do what we in ring do. Kayfabe the shit out of it. Act like you don't hate everything and are a total fackface. Kids in the crowd and pure wrestling fans alike don't want your shit. And neither do we as performers.

So in short. Dear smarks, stop being homos and enjoy wrestling the way it's meant to be enjoyed.

I'm 20 years old and would like to get into... something. Some sort of physical hobby that's fun and gives me the motivation to stay in peak health, something to work at and improve at.

There are ~500 billion martial arts out there. Where the fuck do I start? I'm in decent shape (3plate deadlift [spoiler]awhile ago[/spoiler] and can run a 5k [spoiler]last summer[/spoiler]) but I find it hard to maintain interest in fitness if it isn't directed at something else.

Is there like a flowchart or some shit to help me figure out what I should go for? I'm 20 and have no training, is that a problem?

I've never posted on /asp/ so if this sort of request post is frowned upon I'm sorry go ahead and delete it

tell us where you live maybe there is a good coach around you. For the most part style and schools that promote resistant training, sparring, etc like boxing, Muay thai, judo, wrestling BJJ will get you the most bang for your buck. Besides that it depends on your price range, schdule and how you mesh with the coaches. So there you go.

Immediately closed

Not saying I'm for Triple H sticking to Chyna, but if he did then his son's would be genetic freaks on par, if not greater than Lesnar.
>>
If WWE was hosted in any other country she'd be in the HOF. But since Americans are such prudes she'll continue to be discriminated against. It's not just a Chyna problem but a female wrestler problem in general. If you think about all the female wrestlers who had to demean themselves in front of these audiences it's pretty sad that none of them get any HOF recognition.

Let's talk kayfabe /asp/, it really needs to comeback, the business its all about kayfabe, this shit of "reality era" its the thing hurting ratings overall, without characters wrestling is basically shit.

Kayfabe has no place in the contemporary wrestling scene.

You're probably just a manchild if you want to believe the two guys fighting each other really hate each other. You probably believe in God and Santa Claus too don't you.
>>
Convince me.
I don't think it is, as long as it stays true to the show. Outside of it (social media, tmz, late show appearances) it doesn't matter just like actresses and actors don't have to stay in character outside of the show.

Why do we *hate* ol' white lightning?
I don't know. I don't hate Sheamus. I wouldn't have put the title on him but I don't really give a fuck. WWE have bigger problems than who their world champ is right now.
>>
>>799775
Its good to get the cash in over with now then later when we have a better champ than Ramen.

The transition seems rough, but I think its for the best.
>Rusev, Barret, and Sheamus become new enforcers of th authority and get a push.
>by having a cash-in on Ramen it creates a feud and tries to create as much of a feud as it can

Who would Ramen feud with if he was champion? There is nobody.

There is no consitency with him. One day he is a jobber and the next he is beating Mark Henry and shaking his hand to get a push. What the fuck do they want with this dude? He is talented for sure, but he is going in no direction.
>>
>>799728
He has no direction because the creative team on the main roster is utter shit.
NXT booked him perfectly as the underdog champion.
On the main roster, he's just some guy with a flashy finisher.

Meh. grils today find ayy lmaos like Bendydick Cuminass attractive, they find all the sharp angles rugged or something.
In the current WWE midcard alone, Bo's uglier.
