Cena needs to just retire so they can put this PG bull**** to bed

 

Total Divas Special Edition Playboy... :drool:

 

Its PG because of the advertisers and Cena adapted to that, not the other way around.

Obviously they're paying more, as if you look at WWE's corporate site, it says under this page that 78% of their audience is 21 and over.

Seeing Hogan in black this came to my mind almost instantly :( I miss those days...

I don't disagree that its wrong. I just disagree with his post.

 

Cena wasn't PG before. Why blame him for it? He was just the smartest at adapting and making money at it.

Oh no, I wasn't disagreeing with you, I was just pointing out that fact about their demographics; makes you think how much more money they'd make if they actually tried to appeal to their biggest demographic. When over three-quarters of your audience is at least 21 years old, you'd think they'd target the shows towards them.

Yeah the old days!

For those who haven't seen the results of the most recent episode of WWE Main Event, Ryback came down and circled the ring after almost every match/segment of the show. During one, he yelled "Keep typing, morons". On another, he yelled "Ryback rules" in random audience members' faces.

Looks like his Twitter personality is finally coming through on TV. :D

Hulk Hogan reached a verbal agreement with WWE this past week, according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

 

The latest is that Hogan will not be wrestling at WrestleMania XXX and most likely would not pass a WWE physical. That said, he will have some sort of role at the WWE Hall of Fame and WrestleMania XXX. WWE has been talking about inducting the WrestleMania 1 main event (Hogan & Mr. T vs. Roddy Piper and Paul Orndorf) into the Hall of Fame, with all 4 men being on hand for the ceremony.

 

As reported earlier this week, ?Rowdy? Roddy Piper has been pushing for a match at WrestleMania that would pit himself & CM Punk vs. Hulk Hogan & John Cena. Piper put Punk over during Old School RAW and tried convincing Punk to get on board for the idea, but it won't be happening, for a variety of reasons.

 

At one point there was talk of Hulk Hogan appearing at the ?groundbreaking? WWE Network announcement, but the company did not want Hogan?s return to distract from the Network announcement. The decision was made to hold off on his return, which will help pop a big TV rating as WWE is negotiating their TV rights fees.

Hogan should've stopped actively wrestling a long time ago. His body is decaying in plain sight.

So yep, The American Wolves have signed with TNA; they were in a backstage segment with Dixie Carter being referred to as simply The Wolves. Storyline-wise, they were supposed to have a tryout match next week for a chance at a contract, but they've already had and signed a contract from a "new investor" in TNA.

 

And speaking of next week, it's gonna be Magnus defending the world title against Sting; if Sting loses, he's gone from TNA (and in turn, the IWC will explode at the thought that the rumours of him being WWE-bound might actually be true this year).

Hello,

And speaking of next week, it's gonna be Magnus defending the world title against Sting; if Sting loses, he's gone from TNA (and in turn, the IWC will explode at the thought that the rumours of him being WWE-bound might actually be true this year).

Its the same thing every year.

Sting is 54; The WWE knows that Sting has one year (more like one match) at most left of his career. What are they going to use Sting for after WM? Undertaker has 48 and look how much he wrestles!

All they can use Sting for is a chance at people he has never wrestled: Rock (41), Austin (49), HHH (44), Shawn (48)....all those until he is 60?? :laugh:

Sting's train has passed. And its only his fault.

He did.

His last match was almost two years ago, so I wouldn't consider that a long time ago.

His last match was when he was physically cleared to wrestle last.  2 years is a fair while in a what, 30 year career?

Pushing Kofi before his annual RR spot  :p

I gotta say that's disappointing, Triple H has missed a trick there
