Austin In Favor Of New WWE In-Ring Style

[Scroby 0]

Here's the thing with the slow pace wrestling....it bores most wrestling fans! Now i'm not saying it should be super quick or whatever, but it shouldn't be so slow that its just namely catch a breather holds or punches and kicks. To be honest Austin really has no say in it because he's not wrestling no more and just has a on air role like for example Bischoff. There's actually a few things that killed Stiener's heel turn off rather than Austin just beating the crap outta Scott. JR didn't sell Stiener like he should have been, Steiner was the only guy who had the BALLS to hit Austin while others just sorta told him to screw off, of course they didn't play off this at all. Instead JR and King made Steiner look like a fool for doing it and the other thing that hurt Stiener was just keeping him with test, now that was pointless.

I'm all for reducing injuries and  trying to tell a story In The Ring, but there's got to be a better way.  Having 2 lengthy restholds In a 5 minute Rico vs Rene Dupree match Is ridiculous.  Yeah, this "New WWE Style" will condition the fans alright.  It'll condition them to fall asleep faster than before, IMO.

I counted 4... in a row.

I stand corrected. Wow, that's even worse.

In fact, Austin should be getting his ass kicked by Christian and Stevie Richards, rright? Because those guys are so valuable to the company, and a stunner from Austin just ruins their entire career, right?

 

Yeah, surely WWE can sacrifice an upper midcard heel to make their fucking hasbeen commissioner look great. That makes sense.

 

And Stevie's only some wrestler with a bad neck in his early 30's who as of now saw better days in ECW. A guy like that surely would never amount to anything in WWE. It's not like he could possibly be a big star sometime soon and we wouldn't expect it. Nope.

 

For now, let's keep centering the company around hasbeens, leave the midcarders stagnating, and just push the green-as-grass OVW kids.

 

Austin kinda put over Kane and Batista. Whoopdy-fuck. Now, I hate to make a long-term assumption that simply can't be proved or accurately predicted too far ahead due to the nature the business, but I can't see Kane becoming much of a big star and Batista doesn't really strike me as the OMG FUTURE STAR!~ that even some people here see.

 

Although, the Kane thing is kind of a moot point since the Shane storyline killed him as a ratings draw. Eh, maybe the Taker storyline will make him a top guy at last.

 

  austin got the best of him, but babyfaces for the most part do.

 

That's part of why WWE sucks so bad right now. Besides HHH, heels generally have their balls cut off constantly by the faces. Then the heel scores some minor victory before a PPV--oh no, maybe the heel will win?! Nope, face wins the blowoff. Heaven forbid a heel look to be on even ground with the face, even if he has to cheat to do it. Can't have that.

 

Blaming Austin is grasping for straws.

 

The reason a lot of people on the board are sick of Austin is because he bitched about crummy the writing in WWE was, then he came crawling back like a little bitch to Vince, and he himself became part of the problem yet again. He could have stood on his principles and said "shape up with the writing or I'm not coming back," but he had to be such a whore for the spotlight that he simply came back when Vince was ready to play nice, give him a squash vs. Bischoff, a Mania match, and a long-term non-wrestling role on Raw.

 

At least that's how I feel, maybe I'm alone on that. Austin's one of the few that is in a position to help improve things, but he's only interested in making sure that he's getting his ass kissed. Remember, Austin just loved this wonderful idea to bring him back again after Survivor Series. Not that wrestling *ever* lived up to retirement stipulations, but WWE has matches and feuds that are supposed to "shake the foundation of Raw," but all they do is make a minor change for a week or two, then it's back to the status quo. Nothing ever happens to change things. It's the same old crap over and over again.

It's all scripted. Wrestling's fake. Chill out.
