i ran into this forum today, and while i don't really plan on being a long time member (i stopped watching wrestling back in 04') i must ask this question. what in the blue hell do people find so exciting about the wrestlers nowadays? all of them are extremely stale with super boring/generic gimmicks. CM punk? seriously? he's a poor man's jeff hardy, except NO WHERE near as exciting. daniel bryan is even worse. he's a small, wimpy looking guy who's written to appear as a total coward, so WHY are people chanting him? he comes off as a total dickwad. cody rhodes? seriously? another super boring guy. what's the difference between him and daniel? the super annoying "YES!" chant that daniel stole from diego sanchez?
i'll still tune into raw now and then, and my interest was piqued when the jabroni beatin', pie eatin', trail blazin', eyebrow raisin', most electrifying man in sports entertainment returned, though i doubt he'll be a regular like he was back in the attitude era.
john cena is the worst though. he looks like an all-around nice guy, but he's boring as HELL. extremely boring gimmick, and the WWE gave him that "invincible" persona, where he'll win 95% of the time, making it super predictable. it's ridiculous that this guy gets booed to hell and back yet the WWE refuses to change his character. i know the chances of him turning heel are slim because of all the little kids that look up to him, but it would definitely cause excitement, and i for one would tune in every monday to see what happens.
i know the WWE will never have people like stone cold, the rock, etc. ever again, but that's not really the point. the point is that the WWE needs to realize what made the attitude era so popular. that unpredictability, the crazy storylines, and the bloody matches!
with that being said, i AM glad that lesnar is back, even though many aren't. though i don't like his new MMA gimmick, he's definitely exciting to watch.
