1. No matter who was winning the ratings war, there was no difference in exposure between WWF and WCW. WWF midcarders were just as well known as WCW midcarders. 2. The fact that he was coming from WCW was nowhere near as important as the fact that they put him against The Rock and had him hold his ...

My thing is there were NO drugs.. It was all a work. Because they would've made him sit out his full suspension, instead of putting Hunico under the mask before it was over, and making it obvious that it wasn't Mistico... Cero's info makes me believe that even more... I call work since day 1. Also, ...

Ok, this dawned on me... Think About it... Sin Cara mysteriously tests positive for something violating the WWE Wellness Policy. But, instead of WWE following standard procedure, they broke it. They never told us what he apparently tested positive for, which is odd. What's even more stange, is, he d...

1. I agree that his moveset is limited at the moment, and that he needs to expand it, but I think that if he does, he has tremendous potential. 2. But none of that was about WCW vs. nWo. The motivations there were all about Goldberg being Goldberg, and about the nWo wanting the World Title. Goldber...

1. How can you not have seen Star Wars? It is one of the most famous movies of all time! 2. Whether or not you have seen it is irrelevant. What matters is statistic, and the comparison we can draw. The sequel had a much better opening weekend than the original because the awesomeness of the origina...

Being a big name helps you sell tickets, but it doesn't mean you will be accepted as a main eventer. Do you really think that people would have bought D'Lo as a main event act in TNA right away (even back in 2003)? I am a HUGE D'Lo fan (I couldn't stop myself from cheering for him during his ROH ru...

1. Zeke is just as awkward at selling as most big-men who are trying to portray monsters are (because you have to sell a little, but not too much- Kane and Abyss are particularly good at selling while still being big men because they get the psychology- things like stumbling backwards with the firs...

I am looking at it from that angle, and I have com to the conclusion that that angle makes no sense. Look at my earlier boxing analogy with the Ali-Frazier fights. Just because there was more than one does not make either of those fights any worse. You are completely discounting match quality and a...

I disagree. Fans wouldn't accept Morrison as an immediate main eventer in TNA because he had been an upper-midcarder in WWE. They would accept him as an immediate main eventer in TNA because a lot of them believe that he should be a main eventer and WWE and isn't. It is all about the way the fans p...

1. Zeke is not a bad worker. Ultimate Warrior was lightning in a bottle, and was a product of a different era. Televised non-squashes were very rare back then. Warrior would have been exposed a lot quicker than he was. His 1996 and 1997 returns prove this. Who cares if there isn't a universally ack...

I'm in the middle of responding to everything else, but the logic here is so ridiculous that it deserves its own post. By this logic, a one off squash match with a jobber is "more legendary" than any Rock vs. Austin match simply because it only happened once. Surely you can see how ridicu...

Your comments about Fujinami dismissed his match with Hogan was being completely unimportant because you had no idea who he was, in a debate about whether big names or workrate were more important to a match. I'm not going to talk about someone I DON'T KNOW... so of course I disregarded it. I speak...

You can't go from ROH midcarder to TNA main eventer, but you can go from ROH main eventer to TNA main eventer. You also can't go from a WWE mid-carder to a TNA main eventer. You have to get pushed up from the midcard in TNA or else the fans will poop on it. Well ROH is the smaller of the 2 firstly....

1. EVERYONE cares about match quality! If they didn't, why not have every match only go 30 seconds long? Because good matches build excitement during the match . Yes, not happening as often makes a match more special. But not enough to make up for bad quality. Furthermore, the way that you are look...

But the wider society is irrelevant. The question is: "Who is at high enough level to get a win over Sting?" Neither Anderson nor Pope were at that level at any point in their WWE careers. A main eventer is a main eventer, no matter where you go. If a guy like Ted Dibiase Jr. were to jump...

I couldn't find anything about it. Liger didn't feud with any heavyweights in the US; he was primarily WCW's guy to get their Junior Heavyweights over. And Sting was such a huge draw that it's hard to forget the guys he feuded with (esp pre nWo). Liger was WCW's most identifiable Japanese competito...

1. The reason that you know which match people are talking about when you say "Hogan vs. Goldberg" is because there was only one . Not because that match was so much better than the other matches they might have had. Your argument is predicated on something that is irrelevant to the quali...

Your comments about Fujinami dismissed his match with Hogan was being completely unimportant because you had no idea who he was, in a debate about whether big names or workrate were more important to a match. It obviously wasn't match of the year... America ain't talking about it. And if I don't kn...

But it doesn't matter if he was in WWE and didn't do anything (like Pope) or if he is at a much higher level in TNA than he was in WWE (like Anderson). Sting only takes bumps that require him to not fall very far (Mic Check, Frog Splash, clothesline etc.) when was the last time you saw Sting take a...

So basically the two Japanese legends who get mentioned the most on this board, and the two guys who feuded with your favorite wrestler. Just because you haven't heard of someone doesn't mean they aren't a big name. What does THAT have to do with ANYTHING? I never said any of these guys weren't big...
