I was watching the WWE press conference when they made their so called huge announcement live on the internet, when it was said that the WWE is going to have Wrestlemania 30 at the Dome in New Orleans, and Vince was saying that the only goal with WWE that they want to put smiles on people’s faces everyday, and globally. I just laughed when Vince said that. Why? Because it isn’t true. Vince doesn’t make people smile with WWE shows. Who does the smiling when it comes to WWE? Yes, that’s right. No one other than Vince McMahon, himself. He’s all about making himself smile. All he cares about is making money. He doesn’t care about the WWE fans as he claims. He’s all about doing the things that makes him happy.
Evidence of that. Dropping the TV-14 rating and going PG. Getting rid of great wrestling. Ditching hardcore wrestling. Shoving John Cena in our faces for the past 10 years. Bad writing in storylines. Trying to take the wrestling part out of the WWE. Need I go on? He can bring back the Attitude Era, turn John Cena heel, bring back hardcore wrestling and all that stuff anytime he wants to. He won’t ’cause he knows that the family friendly part of wrestling and John Cena is what helps Vince make the money.
I’ve been so turned off by WWE for the past several years now. I gave up watching WWE ppvs and I’m thinking about bailing out of Wrestlemania 29 this year. Not sure if I’ll watch it ’cause everyone knows Cena will take the belt from the Rock, anyways. I don’t really want to see Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar again either, that match isn’t confirmed yet, but will be soon.
With that being said, the WWE just sucks currently. Ratings are bad, and I don’t like all the current gimmicks. Wrestling is not the same anymore.
As far as TNA Impact goes, they are an alright company, but the only reason they are getting bigger and more successful is ’cause of Hulk Hogan. That’s why TNA hired Hogan ’cause they know he would take their company to the next level. TNA is traveling the world now with their live TV shows. I can’t stand Hulk Hogan either. Wish is why I gave up on TNA Impact. Maybe I’ll start watching again if Hogan will ever leave though.
Back to WWE, if they are going to have Wrestlemania 30 in New Orleans, they better make that card a good one. John Cena, will obviously headline that WM like he usually does every year (*rolls eyes*), but I hope they pick Cena a different opponent for WM-30. I certainly don’t want Cena vs. The Rock III. If they want to make Wrestlemania 30 a historic one, they better have dream matches that people want to see like Stone Cold vs. Hogan, Lesnar vs. Undertaker, and matches such as those. Will they? Nope. They will come up with stupid matches, whatever makes Vince the money.
That’s how much of a greedy businessman Vince is. He’s an egomaniac in real life and only cares for himself. I’m fed up with WWE. Have been for a long time. I still respect the performers and wrestlers, they are great. I’m just knocking the company’s creative direction.
