2007-2009 was when pro wrestling peaked
how old were you then?
>>20397008Let me guess…born in 99?
>>20397008I know this is probably bait but if you unironically think this then you need to take a bump
>>20397008Pro wrestling peaked when I was 10. A lot of things did come to think of it.
>>20397008explain yourself OP
1998-2005 thoughever. You can pinpoint the release of Smackdown Vs Raw 2006 as the moment when the decline reallyhit
>>20397032try 96-03
>wwe pushing shitters like carlito and mvp>tna being tna>roh getting worse and worse>japan in slumpPossibly the worst modern stretch.
>>20397008In TNA?
>>2039704809-13 might have been worse for all those places, except for NJPW finding a new pulse with the returns of okada and naito and all those guys
>>20397013not him but i was born in 00 and i agree with him
>>20397048I feel like me and Vince were the biggest Carlito fans
>>2039707909-11 was definitely the worse. Everyone crying about celebrities now must not have been watching then because it can get much much worse.
>>20397008maybe on planet retard
>>20397042Many of you missed the mid to late 80s
67 to 79 for me
>>20397008>>20397032>>20397042>>20397048many people believe spongebob quality went downhill after first film and Stephen Hillenburg intended it to be true ending wraping the whole series, so what year do you think pro wrestling ending would be?
>>203972401985
>>20397161what's it like to only have grown up with corposlop and nostalgia for things you never experienced?
>Guest Host era>40 year old babyface Triple H 'rebelling' against Vince>Hornswoggle being a permanent punchline to every lame joke they've got>The neverending Cena vs Randy feud>Kozlov, Viscera, Khali, Mark Henry before he got a clue, bald shaved eyebrows Snitsky being put in monster-of-the-week feuds then discarded immediately>Main eventer Finlay>The new HD sets>Literal Nickelodeon humour>Having to pretend that Nickelback was good>Uber babyface Jerry Lawler on commentary marking out over Super Cena antics and saying some of the dumbest shit ever as a 50+ year old wrestling vet>Checked out JR>Crowds would be so dead that they had to pipe in some noise just to get something coming across on TV>Pushes constantly getting derailed because they had to crack down on the wellness policy because of Benoit (except for Randy and Trips)>Whatever the fuck Kane was doing>The midcard and tag team scenes being treated like complete filler. Just incredibly dull shit. No fun segments whatsoever. No crazy high flying action. Little to no chemistry between the characters. I guess there was Matt Hardy & MVP, what else?>The lower card acts that do have some potential on ECW either end up getting fired, repackaged, or sentenced to Superstars hellYeah dude gotta love neutered wrestling
>>20397240The only appropriate ending for wrestling was the Benoit thing
2004-2011 is unwatchable garbage. second worst period in WWE history, 2023-now being the worst.
>>20397008Nah pro wrestling peaked the years I was like 8-12 (1993-1996) and will never be as exciting, fresh, or comfy ever again
>>20397019Not really but everything did for the most part when I was either 10, 16, 21, or 30
>>20397008it actually did in 2014-2017 but whatever
