Thoughts? How did this happen?
The rock was also considered washed and too old at 39 for a mania main event back then
>>20031118That really is pretty fucking crazy.
>>20031118Phil looks like he's 57. He turns all red like a lobster by the time the match has started.
Austin theory been in wwe since at least the pandemic and his theme is still the generic "Im gonna take what's mine!" bullshit kekcut this guy now
>>20031165this was supposed to be a new thread but eh it works
whenever i see the rock cena poster i get the invincible song stuck in my head for hours
>>20031118will we ever get another match that feels as big as cena vs rock did bros? rock roman won't draw a dime in comparison.
>>20031201HEY I HEARD YOU WERE A WILD ONE
>>20031232Not in any of our lifetimes.
Punk literally looks like if you took someone's grandfather and made them a WWE champion I don't understand the appeal ?
>>20031252i shoot miss the flo rida pitbull era of wm songs so muchit was pure fucking soul. i'm sick of the weekend and rap slop they do now
>>20031118Bear in mind that HHH was intent on developing Bron Breakker into a main event challenger at WM42. They aborted this plan before the hernia injury, electing, as they do, to fall back on the older Vince-era stars.Pro wrestling is also very different from real sports in that the public image of the characters can be protected from the trial of natural selection that real athletes are always subjected to. The cycle of unknown young lions that replace the aged and established household names never ceases in pro sports, but in pro wrestling this cycle needs to be carefully managed and mediated in response to audience reception.To sum it up in two points:(1) It's not unusual for the most successful wrestlers on any roster to be far past their physical prime, since their staying power is a direct reflection of the audience's acceptance of them as stars.(2) The absence of any wrestlers under the age of 35 who are on the verge of rising to the level the WM42 main eventers have achieved is a direct result of the incompetence of HHH and his creative team. That's how this happened.
>>20031118that's fucked up. they both felt old af at the time.
>>20031153>>20031118No wonder Phil looks sluggish and unatheletic, he's just too old
COOKIE PUSS
>>20031389none of those were airballs>>20031118>>20031135wasn't Machoman comically old at like 34? all of the old guys refuse to put over younger guy and they hide fags in NXT until they are in their mid 30s and they won't ever let anyone like Gable near the main event
>>20031353real talkhttps://youtu.be/YgFyi74DVjc
they dont know how to build young stars, this year they have manage to fumble all of them
>>20031118Wrestling went from being stuck in 1999 to being stuck in 2013.
>>20031353flo rida / pitbull era was kino, but I have a soft spot for the weeknd themes too. initially I hated it because it felt so out of place but eventually got into it.
>>20031135No he wasn't. He had gone off to Hollywood and only mad one or two appearances a year. You could say he was out of ring shape since he never wrestled but no one said he was too old.
>>20031389Holy hell who uploaded this?I swear, CM Punk is an evil devil wizard for convincing so many people that he is main event material.
>>20031118People who were born in 2012 are already 30 years old
