I wonder why they let R-Truth wrestle with all those piercings in his face and ears. Don't they worry about something bad happening with them?
I wonder why anyone wrestles with them in. I sure as hell wouldn't take the chance of them getting torn out. WWE doesn't seem to have a policy on it though since other guys, CM Punk and Batista come immediately to mind, have done so as well. They wouldn't have to tell me not do it though. That is something I would know on my own.
I like how lately, in some of the matches, they don't introduce the wrestlers until they are in the ring, like they used to. Do you think they will keep doing it that way, or just do it now and then?
At this point, I think the best you can hope for is the lower card guys not getting the big entrance. For the upper level guys, the grand way they come to the ring is a part of their act.
With the WWE announcing well in advance the main event for the next Wrestlemania (Rock vs. Cena), do you feel it was a wise move to do so far out? I understand it being the Rock's hometown and they want to get the maximum effect but don't you think a hundred things could happen to either person in a years time (like a major injury or maybe even the Rock having second thoughts about it a few months from now no matter HOW much money McMahon is throwing at him?) Even if they announced it a few months out, the ticket and PPV sales would still be there so why would they not just kind of build up to it like they are so good at doing?
They want the buzz of having The Rock back "with the company". I understand that and I see it as a chance worth taking. I don't see Rock going back on his word, he's not that kind of guy. So it just comes down to an injury. Since Rock won't be wrestling full time, or probably at all, I think he will be fine. If Cena gets hurt, then they have to adjust but that is life. The big issue is keeping the program fresh. That will be the challenge.
So by now we all know WWE HATES 2 things. Tag Teams and Cruiserweights. Why not take all your lightweights & high flyers and make the non-existent Tag Division a showcase of those talents? Remember Paul London & Brian Kendrick? They DOMINATED the Tag Division for almost a year, the 4th longest reigning champs in company history! Boom. Winning. Any thoughts?
I don't see it happening because if WWE shows how great those guys are, it makes the guys further up the card look weak in comparison when they don't do all of the big moves and spots. WWE has moved away from doing too much high impact work because of injuries to the talent so if a person wants to be a star for the company, they better learn how to cut a good promo.
Why doesn't Vince hold WrestleMania in certain cities? For example, Charlotte, NC? That's a part of the country steeped with a rich wrestling tradition and history. It can't be because of worry about attendance? Wrestlemania 20 at Madison Square Garden in NYC held 18,500; Wrestlemania 21 at the Staples Center in LA held 20,193; Wrestlemania 22 at the Allstate arena in Chicago held 17,159. Vince has held the event at these venues multiple times but The Time Warner Arena in Charlotte can hold a capacity 20,200 which is higher than all those. Any thoughts on this?
WWE was running smaller buildings on the dates you cited. Plus, they are the three biggest cities in the country so it's easier to charge more for the tickets and get a bigger gate. In 2011, the company likes to run Mania in large stadiums and make it an event. Obviously there are weather concerns in running non-domed stadiums in early spring so that is probably one of the biggest things working against Charlotte.
