I've been watching vintage episodes of NWA/WCW on WWE Classics on Demand and they were great. Plus it's crazy knowing Arn, Sting, Rick Rude, and Lex Luger were all the same age (28) yet Arn looked like he was at least 45 "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |

WWE need to kill the nextus now CM punk in it, I do like CM Punk has a heel but I think he should have stayed with the straight edge society. | |

I figured something was wrong with the water. When I didn't know better, I thought in the back of my mind "what is that old dude doing in the ring?" | |

- Former WCW World Heavyweight Champion Diamond Dallas Page announced on Twitter that he may be hosting WCW's upcoming Nitro DVD set. He wrote: "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | ||

Oh but of course. Cena's gone, he has to now. | |

Interesting. Been a while since I've seen Diamond. Remember when he sued Jay-Z for using the diamond symbol...
Hope Tony don't come in here. | ||

He gave an interview in the new WWE magazine (on the cover of course) and was saying how the company changed (the roster he doesn’t know them) how he and undertaker the only older wrestlers left.
sidenote remember when they had Raw magazine and the regular WWF magazine | |

Of course I do. I remember they used to advertise both at the same time. | |

As Babybugz just said, no it's not just you. My favorite drunk wrestler would always be Stone Cold though. He made being drunk fun. | ||

and that's just ego because there are more veterans who are still on the roster
Goldust: Dustin's been wrestling since 1990 Mark Henry- wrestling since 1995 William Regal- wrestling since the 80s Kane- wrestling since the early 90s. He used to Issac Yankum AND the fake Diesel (Triple H started around the same time) Big Show- wrestling since 1995.
Undertaker isn't even there for the whole year anyway He'll come for about 5 months, appear at Wrestlemania and you won't see him for another 4 to 7 months "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |

And to be honest with you... I'm bored with the Undertaker now lol | |

Back in the days of the NWA/Joe Crocket Promotions, no one could f*** with Ric Flair OR Dusty Rhodes when it came to promos.

I won't lie, I think Goldust had one of the best entrance songs and actually listened to it earlier today.

I havent watched in a couple of years (the Wrestlemania when Michaels retired Flair was the last show I watched) but my sons still watch religiously.
I heard Arn is going into the hall this year...no?
As for Savage, he'll never get in. For those not knowing, he took little Miss Stephanie McMahon's virginity when she was under age and Vince wasnt too happy about that.
Im old school folks. Always hated the WWF (I refuse to call it WWE) but watched because it was wrestling. Went to every WWF houseshow at the San Diego Sports Arena from Feb 1987-around the summer of 1992. Back then they used to come to town every month--right before the main event they would announce next months main event and tickets went on sale immediately after.
The old Jim Crockett Promotions NWA was the shiznit. TBS, Saturday afternoon at 3:05. They never came to San Diego though...I only went to one house show of theirs in their heyday. Summer of 1988 at the Forum in LA. The main event? WARGAMES! "Two rings wrapped in steel" with a roof on top. Two teams of five battling till someone submit. The teams?
Ric Flair/Tully Blanchard/Arn Anderson/Barry Windham/JJ Dillon vs Dusty Rhodes/The Road Warriors/Nikita Koloff/Lex Luger.
I couldnt sleep that night!!!!
Anyways...I love talking old school wrestling. Y'all wanna know something, just ask! She has robes and she has monkeys, lazy diamond studded flunkies.... | |

Wow, I'm glad to find out I'm not the only one that feels that way. I thought I had just grown out of it, but I can't even watch more than 3 minutes of the WWE today. I was a HUGE fan back between the mid-80's to the early 90's. Rick Steiner, the Dog Faced Gremlin, was my favorite! (He's selling real estate now and is with the Board of Education in Georgia - one of the few wrestlers from back in the day that hasn't died!)
Back in the day, they used to WRESTLE! Today; seems like there's just storyline after storyline - hardly any time for actual matches. Every time I come across wrestling today as I channel-surf, all I ever see is someone standing in the ring with a microphone talking shit.
I even used to subscribe to WWF Magazine back in the 80's, lol. Thankfully, there are some great wrestling-torrent sites out there now to keep all those old matches alive. | |

Yeah the WWE is really crappy. And I don't think it's because we're all getting "older" here. That's not a good excuse for the youngsters anymore. | |

I wish it was possible for The Undertaker to use his Ministry Of Darkness persona during his final year as an active wrestler. IMO, that would be ultimate badass!
The best part of THIS^ is the first 54 seconds.

1. For the time being, I don't believe in that rumor about Randy & Stephine. I've heard about this from a forum at Wrestlezone. The whole story is too far fetch considering that Randy was never fired nor did he ever resigned from WWF, but did leave after his contact expired. I'm convince that the only real reason why Vince refuses to put Randy in the WWE HOF is because Randy refuses to kiss Vince's ass (professionally speaking), plain and simple. The same thing applies to why The Ultimate Warrior & Bruno Sammatino are not in the HOF neither. These men have too much self-respect to allow Vince to give them questionable business deals.
2. Speaking of old school wrestling, were you ever a fan of Mid-South Wresting/UWF, World Class, OR USWA (before the interpromotional deal with WWF)? Just like the case of NWA/JCP, those wrestling companies were all in the South. | |

Vince is still bitter (and probably hurt) about Randy leaving in 1994. If I remember, they were friends and when Randy's contract expired, he promised Vince he'd stay with them while they worked on a contract....2 weeks later, he showed up on WCW Saturday Night. It's similar to what happened with Lex Luger (who Vince also refused to work with until recently)
now Ultimate Warrior....it's not he has too much self respect, it's because he's an asshole They even offered him a spot last year and he turned them down. Apparently they're neogotiating with Sting to be in this year's hall of fame who I feel is more deserving (A 25 year career and being the most successful wrestler that HAS NOT worked for Vince McMahon ever) -9 time NWA/WCW World Champion -1 time NWA-TNA World Champion -2 time TNA World Champion -1 time WWA World Champion
I'd put Ron Simmons, Vader, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Jimmy Hart, Sid Vicious, Ken Shamrock, Ahmed Johnson, Chris Candido, Magnam TA, Jim Cornette, Rick Rude, Tully Blanchard, Rick Martel, and The Steiners in the Hall of Fame before I'd put Warrior "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |
