What did Drew McIntyre do to piss off management? Didn’t Vince like him at one time?
Vince did indeed. At SummerSlam a few years back, there was a domestic incident with him and his then-wife Taryn Terrell. From that point on, he fell into disfavor.
WWE is totally missing the mark on not signing AJ Styles. The guy always has great matches. Plus, all the merchandise they could sell off him would be huge. Gloves, jackets, hoodies. But, then again Vince McMahon would just totally screw him up and make him a postman or a clown or give him some other stupid gimmick.
I like AJ as much as the next guy but I disagree with you here. WWE is looking for younger talent, not older guys. Plus AJ has his way of working, which has done for well over a decade. He isn't going to want to come in to WWE and change everything he has done to be the wrestler that he is. He would rather be able to do what he does best in ROH and Japan. I think it's the best move for him. If he went to WWE, he would most probably not be booked in a way that would make his fans happy.
When is everyone going to finally accept the fact that CM Punk is done with WWE and move on? I can't remember another "talent" who gets more press for not working. Granted he is great at what he does, but NXT has up and comers who would give anything to have what Punk gave up. Time to move on and find the next Punk.
Some people are conspiracy theorists and will never let the truth get in the way of that. Personally, we have reported since day one that his leaving was legitimate. We only concern ourselves with what we report.
Hang on second, I've been reading PWInsider for a long time now (easily the best and most honest wrestling site on the web) and you've constantly said WWE needs new top tier talent, which I think everybody except Vince McMahon would agree with. But now since Daniel Bryan got injured, you've basically said WWE shouldn't use this chance to create a new superstar. Why is this? Whats the problem with putting the belt on say Roman Reigns and giving him a chance.
You have it half right. We do want to see new top tier stars and I have no problem with them putting the belt on Reigns, provided that Bryan will not be coming back and winning the Title. If Bryan is coming back to regain the belts, I don't want to see Reigns get a short run. I think if they put the belt on him, he deserves some time to see what he can do as the top guy. But, I think Bryan also deserves more time to show what he can do in a good program on top (not the stuff he did with Kane, which was not booked well). If WWE is not going with Bryan as champ again, I am 100 percent behind them putting the belt on Reigns.
It seems TNA is totally lost. Years ago they had the 6sided ring, an amazing and talented pre-wwe roster, better storylines. Then they went thru the sign established stars, Hogan, Flair, Sting, Kurt Angle, Jeff And Matt Hardy, Scott Steiner, Booker T, Christian, RVD, Team 3d, etc... TNA then cuts the roster to the bone. Keeping Angle and Hardy who will probably go back to wwe first chance they get. Not re-signing AJ Styles sent a terrible message to any TNA fan. And probably to TNA original wrestlers as well. It is a total shame they have no ability to get original TNA wrestlers over in a bigway. And now they are going back to the six sided ring. Were there any positives that came out of the TNA "WWE" era?
The signings of Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff set the company backward in my opinion. The main positive that came out of it was the upgrade in the TV production that Bischoff and Jason Hervey brough to the table.
