Do you believe that the modern WWE is ruining, if not killing, the next generation of wrestling fans?

Question

When I was young we had heroes. We had role models. We had true legends of the sport? Who do we have now???

Answer 1

HBK, Rey Mysterio, Undertaker, HHH, and the Hardys are still here. i think they should just quit taking up so much time with their stupid storylines, micraphone talks, and soap operas. those are the only things killing wrestling today. we still have roll models, legends and things like that, but the "kid's era" REALLY needs to end soon.

Answer 2

no, it's killing off the people from the Attitude Era. I'm 18, so i was lucky enough to experience Taker, Stone Cold, Rock. HHH. The union, the ministry, all that good stuff. new comers know will never know that, so they'll never know what we mean when we say that. they're just not gonna see the great stuff that we did.

Answer 3

Nah 2day is a different time everything is different, yeah 2days "stars" arent what they were back in the day but wrestling will always survive

Answer 4

I think they are cuz they got these kids brainwashed wit the cena and batista c**p thinking that they are the greatest which bothers me  these 2 guys r prob the most overated peices of c**p ive ever seen besides hulk hogan

Answer 5

Yes it is I wouldn't be surprise if someone like Hornswoggle becomes ECW champion rather than Finlay. Its sad that these kids will eat up anything that Vince feed them these days.

Answer 6

Your completely right I don't think that in 15 years my kids will want to watch WWE if it keeps heading the way it is (they need to make a change fast).

Answer 7

You can blame the Stone Cold character for that.  When people started cheering for him over the goody two shoes Bret Hart (which wasn't supposed to happen), the whole role model thing went downhill and every face became this anti-hero.

Answer 8

BRING BACK THE d**n ATTITUDE ERA =(

Answer 9

Shaw Michaels is still there. He's my role model. But when you look for role models in the wwe it's easier for someone to find one. When i look i read there book and see if it wasm't easy for them to make it or if they were just givin everything. but we do got some good people for role models.

Answer 10

As you said 'the next generation of wrestling fans', my answer is no. WWE isn't ruining the next generation of wrestling fans because the next generation of wrestling fans would already be drawed to how WWE is right now and they wouldn't really know much about the Attitude Era.

Shawn Michaels is still in the business and I know he has alot of fans who look up to him. There is even CM Punk, he is straight edge and lately, he's been showed to be proving other wrestlers wrong. There are other role models in this sport that many fans look up to. Both of those wrestlers are my examples though.

Answer 11

wwe just plain isn't as good as it used to be. i only watch cuz i love watching wrestling and theres not too many other choices out there. if it wasn't for taker and hbk i'd totally stop watching wwe.

i think cena and batista and their fans (hhh including, since he is the one wanting them to have this horrible match at summerslam and wrestlemania) are ruining wrestling. its so kiddie now. theres not blood, violence, s*x or anything and its not that that makes the wrestling business but its still cool to have it around every once in awhile. hopefully tna gets better QUICK and scares wwe a little bit like wcw did in the 90s and it makes wwe better

Answer 12

I'm not crazy about the modern era of the w.w.e but I don't hate it.

Answer 13

We still have HBK who is a legend, right now they're making CM Punk and John Cena role models.
