Like lets say you feel wrestling is missing something...

- A promotion (WCW or old ECW for eg)

- A wrestler (The Rock, Harley Race whatever, someone who made wrestling important to you)

Somethng else like a commentator (Gordon Solie) or anything else you can think of.

Your thoughts?

  1. the real mean exciting storylines for example the fueds between stonecold and the rock,  the old DX, and well ............i kina miss vince


  2. the hardcore belt and hardcore matches in general to me wwe is becoming too kid friendly i just picked up king of the ring 2001 and watched kurt angle vs shane mcmahon and it was just a pure street fight and with the hardcore belt it was pretty cool to see basically a new harcore champ every night


  3. Bret "The Hitman" Hart...the best there is, the best there was, the best there ever will be!

  4. the rock and stone cold

  5. First off Changing it to WWE and the plot got way to dramatic.  I felt like i was watching a movie on lifetime.

  6. wrestler - i terribly miss BRET HART & the HART FOUNDATION; OWEN, DAVEY BOY, ANVIL, BRIAN

    commentator  - i miss the former president of the WWE (on-screen of course) & commentator, GORILLA MONSOON

    promotion - i don't miss any

  7. NOTHING!! Absolutely nothing at all, RAW ROCKS HARDCORE HIPPIES!!

  8. THE ROCK!

  9. The cruiserweight title they need to bring it back and give it more story lines to it then the usual every two months one title shot

  10. The 80's. WWF / WWE will never compare to that ever again.

  11. The Hardcore title and Eddie Guererro  

  12. Nothing really.

    It always sucked balls.

  13. Stone Cold

    good stories/drama

    WWE was so goold before they did the raw -smackdown split.

  14. A great Tag-Team division and to many ppv it was more exciting when their wasn't so many

    wwf

    Jeff hardy skinny

  17. the old story lines when they were good,the rock ,stone cold.,lita..the old masked kane,The hardcore belt..i can go on and on the the wwe has changed sooo much its never going to be the some i think

  18. Eddie Guerrero, bar none. The guy NEVER failed to bring entertainment onto our TVs during his career.


  19. I really miss the Old School ECW. Those were the real days. It was awesome.

  20. SHUT UP!!!

  21. Wrestler like The Rock and Lesnar

  22. I JUST MISS THE WWF AND WCW BEING ON 2 DIFFRENT CHANNELS, I LOVED TO FLIP BACK AND FORTH THE STORY LINES WERE BETTER THEN.. SPECIALLY BETWEEN STONE COLD AND THE ROCK LMAO

  23. ITS ALL THE WRESTLERS THAT DIED.THEY TOOK A PART OF WRESTLING WITH THEM.

  24. I miss character. Everyone had character back in the day.  Today, its always someone new. Noone has time to develop a good gimmick anymore. h**l, even you know the jobbers were even famous back in the day. Now they don't have jobbers anymore. Thats it! I miss jobbers the most.(does big wiggle.....runs around ring screaming)  

    - Good stables. Man did they have some. Now, were lucky if a stable goes for more than three months. They are just uninteresting

    -Good writers-  I could tell you explicit details of old episodes or matches I watched when I was young, but I cant even remember Raw 2 weeks ago. Why? The writers of today are writing to get to the next week. There is no thought in it

    -Comentators, not gimicks

    -MANAGERS!!! Jimmy Hart!!! Slick!!! Mr Fuji!!! Jimmy Cornette!!! JJ Dillon!!  Freddie Blassie!!! and last but not least...BOBBY THE FRIGGIN BRAIN HEENAN!!!

    -Mean Gene Okurland

    Hmmmm  Hig I could go on for daysbut Ill spare you....plus Im at work and Ive already violated the "no s******g off" policy like at least 75 times this week

  25. In my opinion, what's missing most in wrestling is the element of true surprise. You're just never as surprised as you used to be by heel or face turns, feuds, and storylines. Wrestling was much better in the pre Internet days. I think in a way the Internet ruined wrestling.

  26. Things I miss about wrestling...

    1) Ric Flair - Love him or hate him, he is the best ever to lace up a pair of boots. His love and appreciation for the business will never be matched.

    2) Arn Anderson - Aside from his in ring performance, AA revolutionized the way promos were cut.

    3) The T.V. Title - It was defended at every TV taping which made it a great title for wrestler to cut their teeth on.

    4) Longer matches - I can't be the only one tired of seeing 5 minute matches with only a handful of moves.

    5) Tag Teams - Where is this generations Road Warriors, Midnight Express, The Fantastics, The Fabulous Ones, The Rock n' Roll Express (even though I hated them)?

    6) Wrestlers that don't look like bodybuilders - People like Stan Hansen, d**k Murdoch and Dirty d**k Slater used to rule the land, but couldn't even get a job today because they look like they came straight from the bar.....and probably did.
