>That's why I rate the Attitude Era as the best ever. Nothing can ever compare.

>Sure, wrestlers these days are better in the ring in every way. But does Dustin Boykins in Wichita Falls pop for AJ Styles? No? Didn't think so.

>Wrestling is only ever as good as its pop culture approval.

>When will WWE learn that we don't care about the wrestling as long as it's a good soap opera? Excuse me, a soap opera for MEN.

"no"

Wrestling in the ring today is way worse. No risk at all allowed anymore. Makes for some boring ass matches.

>I actually think that Stone Cold was just a brawler and only did strikes in his matches, and not one of the best workers of all time

Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Kurt Angle were way better overall wrestlers both as technical wrestlers and overall gimmicks than the indie twats smarks like you cream yourselves over.

Attitude Era was the best because they understood television was for the storylines and the PPVs were for the important blow off matches.

Now you can see "great matches" that last 30 minutes on RAW that literally mean nothing and lead nowhere.

Who cares about how many fucking wrestling moves a guy can do when I literally don't give a shit as to why they're doing it in the first place?

We get it. Your coming of age took place during the pop culture (attitude) era. You were an outsider who liked wrestling. Suddenly wrestling was mainstream. It validated you.

You'd never felt so alive.

Time to come back to reality.

Mankind sucked as a wrestler doe and the man could barely move at the height of his popularity. He kept people entertained with his stunts though.

Stone Cold barely got in the fucking ring because of his spine/back problems and post accident was no longer a ring technician but didn't need to be.

What's your cuck point again?
>>
>>1345465

Except people vacated titles constantly just so they could help grow feuds. Fuck, how many titles were stripped from Stone Cold for no real apparent reason other than for him to fight Vince or said new champion?

One of the biggest problems in wrestling is the babyface getting the main championship title, cause, well, that's the most important thing in wrestling, and you can't exactly end RAW or WWE with a final episode.

It's like in DBZ with those filler episodes when there aren't any big bad evil guys to fight.

You have to either shake it up (make the babyface a heel now) or reset it back to status quo (strip the championship from the face)

Having Austin stripped of the title is a big fuck you cause you hate Vince and want to see Austin get his title back because you know he earned it.

Has anyone else here taken a writing class?

>Having Austin stripped of the title is a big fuck you cause you hate Vince and want to see Austin get his title back because you know he earned it.

It'll work exactly one time.
I can think of three times where this has happened. So to the person I was replying to was saying "There were blow offs to feuds.", and I am saying, well no, there fucking wasn't. The AE feuds were all the same or dropped until they all retired or left wrestling.

Both WCW and WWE had trouble dropping hot angles during that time

Can you blame them?

They were great workers
There is a difference between being a great worker and being a great wrestler though they aren't necessarily mutually inclusive/exclusive
