I've been thinking about this and I think Tough Enough is even more fake than WWE. Most of contestants have a couple years experience (even FCW experience) but they still make them look like total newbies. So are they playing rookies that almost don't know anything (and lying to the public) or are they really all that green?
I disagree with you. One, they totally acknowledged that the talents had worked for indies in the past, so that isn't true. More importantly though, WWE views almost anyone who has never worked for them as inexperienced and therefore sends them to Developmental to learn the WWE way of doing things. That is how the trainers taught the young talent on Tough Enough.
What in the world is going on with Sin Cara? The guy is one of the most talented guys I’ve seen in a while, yet all of his matches in WWE seem like a Botchamania festival under dim yellow lighting. His last match with Chavo in OTL was truly poor, even when I believe that match was designed to make him look good. What do you think is going on here? Do you see this costing him his job in WWE?
Cara is a guy that WWE didn't send down to FCW to learn the WWE way and that could be costing him. On top of that, since he has come to the company he has had nerve issues as well. It won't cost him his spot at this time as Mexico is an important market to the company. WWE is instead bringing in Averno, who he is comfortable with, to help Cara with his transition. I agree about the lights however. It's time for them to go.
Where's Goldust? He's fantastic. Is he done as a wrestler in WWE?
He is recovering from serious shoulder surgery. I think his future in the ring is to be determined at this point.
Do you think the WWE and CM Punk could come to some sort of arrangement, where Punk is retained by the WWE in a less rigorous (physically and travel-wise) PR and maybe a training capacity with an option for Punk to return to the ring if it suits both him and the WWE. I really like the idea of Punk helping the young talent with promo (and in-ring, possibly) work, there are few equal or even better in the WWE and in the business overall than him.
Anything is possible I guess but I don't see it happening. WWE only tends to give the easier schedules to the older, more established legends. As of right now, I see Punk letting his contract expire and then taking some time off before making his next move.
Now UFC are planning to buy The G4 Network, with a mainstream television network, do you think is a great idea for UFC to start a wrestling company to compete on WWE level?
First off, don't believe UFC is really buying G4 until it happens. If it does, I see NO WAY that the company starts a wrestling company. They do real fights, not worked matches. They don't want to associate their product with pro wrestling, and they are right on the money in that thinking.
