Vince is disgusting and I’m not surprised at the allegations. I guess the only thing is that she was happy to take the money to participate in the disgusting stuff.
I’m an 80s baby so started watching as a little kid and to this day Hogan is my all time favorite. My favorite time frame as a wrestling fan is the 80s through ruthless aggression and I’m happy to rewatch those times on the network. I agree that it is now better than it has been in a long time. I’m still a fan but not as engaged as I was in the timeframe I mentioned earlier but the product is much better than it’s been in a long while.
I agree that it is now better than it has been in a long time
Is it though? Genuinely?
I watched religiously from 1996 until around 2010, it was my favourite thing in the entire world until the PG era just made everything tame and boring.
I’ve glanced briefly at the current Raw roster and it’s mostly a bunch of weird looking, diverse, corporate boardroom approved, modern-day nobodies. They flash the Rock’s face here and there for star power, but I don’t see any actual “superstar” show stoppers. Everyone just wrestles under a pseudonym (a porn-star name basically), there are no “characters” anymore, like a cowboy or a clown or an undertaker or a plumber etc. They don’t feel like superheroes fighting supervillains anymore, just a bunch of roid enthusiasts getting into arguments.
It just looks fuckin lame, but maybe it’s just that I’ve grown jaded and cynical in my old age.
I would love it to be something my 8 year old son could watch with me and enjoy as much as I once did, but I dunno, it just doesn’t hit the same now as it did when Stone Cold Steve Austin would arrive, raise hell and leave. WWE was better under Vince, deranged narcissist that he was
Well it’s definitely better than PG era. Like u said I loved 80s to ruthless aggression. Attitude Era was amazing but my all time favorite time for wrestling is 80s. Love the over the top gimmicks and promos along with heel commentary
