Im asking the vast majority of the IWC this: its 2017...why do you think vince wants faces to be cheered? He doesnt. Bret Hart got booed in 1997, it made for better TV. "LETS GO CENA" "CENA SUCKS" is a shirt. Babyfaces are there to sell merch. WWE clearly understands that the guy who...

There was a great article on this website about why the Cruiserweights are struggling for relevance. There isn't a novelty to the style anymore. Exchanging holds and catch-as-catch can "feeling out process" in the beginning, followed by clever sequences, some high spots, some dives, some false...

I see a lot of discussion about the 2017 Royal Rumble. WWE just announced that it's returning to the Alamodome in San Antonio. For those of you who don't know, the Alamodome is huge. It can seat (with standing room), 72,000 for a football game. I don't know if WWE will have trouble...

With the brand split coming up, I was thinking about the titles. Instead of having 2 tag titles, or trying to finagle a way to get one set of straps across two brands, why not have one brand with a trios title? It would be something unique to that brand, there are already plenty of trios...

so I was looking through my FB feed and saw NPR covering WWE, in a positive way. Here's the link it sent me to:http://onlyagame.wbur.org/2015/08/22/wwe-daniel-bryan-professional-wrestling So what do you think? WWE's revenues are up, stock prices are up, goodwill seems to be up, media...

The WWE's stock has been surging and has more than doubled since last November. It isn't to all time height yet, but it's higher than it usually is. Obviously, markets go up and down for many reasons. Personally, I feel like this is from the strong retention and growth of the Network...

I've been seeing a lot of "WWE Main Roster vs NXT Super show" suggestions around the internet. I personally feel a huge reason why NXT succeeds is because you don't have the live TV pressure, you don't have the pressure of a huge, diverse audience. It's basically the few hundred people there...

There are little glitches with the graphics and it's clearly an advertisement for a new character. I think it says "Solomon" on the screen. I'm guessing he debuts somehow at Rival. Anyone else pretty hyped up for this? His history in NXT has been strange to say the least. Never, as far as...

Lots of people say things like "NXT is better than Raw" "the NXT PPV was better than the WWE PPV". All the time. No, no they were not. NXT generally has a squash, a couple of TV quality matches, then a solid main event. Raws have a lot of shit you might not like (because it's 3 hours long as...

I was writing posts on that "Dean Ambrose Hates the Attitude Era" thread and I said many times that I felt 1997 WCW was the best promotion/year of all time. In my opinion, it's because it had a fantastic undercard with great matches, star power at the top, and great story lines throughout...

RVD has always been pretty over with the net fans. Am I the only one who's sick of him? In shoot interviews he sounds arrogant as hell. In the ring he's a spot monkey who hasn't come up with anything new in 15 years, so he's not even a good spot monkey. On top of it all, he NEVER jobs clean...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzs6Kb573uU His name is Ryan Drago in that video, I think he's been repackaged as Simon Gotch. I've known him since he was working rinky shows on the indies. He's always had the ability, now his character is there too. If you want to see some cool shit, the...

Maybe this has been discussed, maybe it's already happening but in pretty ignorant to NXT. I have an idea though, should NXT have monthly Supershows? Maybe name a handful after classic ppv names: Halloween havoc, guilty as charged, no way out, etc. maybe even have a NXTmania the weekend...

WWE has always had theme music since i can remember. It's always hit or miss. Flo Rida blows but I guess he's modern. Kid Rock is way passed his prime and was never more than white trash rock to begin with. Sometimes they do more than just 2 themes. So, what do you think of the two...

It's no secret that we (IWC) torrent/stream PPVs. All the damn time. PPVs are just so expensive. WWE knows we do. That's why PPVs are priced so high (this does actually make sense). People who have normal income won't buy a PPV if it's 20 dollars even because 20 is still greater than 0. So...

I have an idea for a concept match. Not sure if it's been done before. Basically it's a ladder match where a pinfall can eliminate someone. The sole purpose I have for this is cramming a ton of guys in a ladder match, having multiple super high spots, and not injuring someone. You could...

I really hate the typical "tell everyone how much you hate a product you spend hours a week watching and typing about" threads, so let's try something different. Which wrestlers do you REALLY enjoy and why? I'll start: Daniel Bryan: I've followed him since 2002 on the first ROH show...

K, so they hired Muse to do the Olympic Theme in London. I was excited. I've heard the song, now I'm sad. I don't think I've ever been as disappointed by a musical performance in my life. Just lazy lyrics, messy music. I'm not a diehard Muse fan, but I do like a lot of their stuff. I'm...

So as well as I can remember, there are three distinct "If Cena Wins, We Riot" (the sign) matches. One Night Stand vs RVD; Money in the Bank vs CM Punk; and Wrestlemania vs Rock. There are probably others with the sign, but those ones stand out the most because they truly felt like a clash...

K, so Daniel Bryan is being booked for you (the typical IWC fan out there) to LOOOVE him. This has been obvious to me for a while and now it's so clear that I feel I have to share it. Daniel Bryan is the ultimate IWC babyface. He's Mr. Indy, he's about 90% physical in ring/character work...
