There need to be other places for wrestlers to go other than WWE. I guess if you don't mind working the fans a little less and your body a little more, there's UFC, provided Dana White likes you. I like CM Punk too, but why Punk and not Bobby Lashley? Punk might be straight edge but White's on drugs! There's also Mexico, and Japan, if you don't mind getting a passport, but New Japan, CMLL, AAA, each is only a marginally larger club than UFC. More accepting of pro wrestlers, but they already have a ton of their own who don't need passports. Or you know Hollywood/Universal studios, if you're like King Kong Bundy, Big Van Vader, The Rock, Batista, John Cena or...Nathan Jones? God knows there's hundreds of wrestlers over the years who would have been great in movies but never got a second look by casting, directors, writers, actors, executives. Randy Savage was fine as Buzzsaw, why did that not keep going? The Mexican wrestlers used to be big in the Mexican movies. Yeah, Santo Jr killed that off, but maybe somebody should open that back up? Maybe somebody should break into the Nigerian or Indian film scene. Those movies make a lot of money, and I'm sure they'd make even more with big pasty foreigners who looks good with their shirts off. Shango versus Sheamus, Mahamada versus Mustafa Ali! If you're good with Carlos Colon or Savio Vega you might be able to get your hands on some of the money left in Puerto Rico, but the hurricanes are getting worse, and the Richard Negrins tend to be more fickle with that money than the Dixie Carters and Tony Khans. Country music and pro wrestling go well together, supplement you indie income like Mickie James, though country doesn't print money like it used to. Music as a whole has been hit hard by digital piracy...but if you pose nude for a cellphone company maybe you can snag a nerdy chef to pay your bills like Gail Kim. Is Rachael Ray single? Look into that, Damien Priest, Austin Theory! Edit: Better yet, look into starting and Onlyfans! This is why AEW was such a disappointment. Why TNA was such a disappointment. Benevolent billionaires have bought/started something! Finally an alternative...oh look, they've got Big Dick Johnson lookalike wrestling Christy Hemme, they've got a wrestler without legs. Maybe this "Elite" thing can work as a proof of concept for the next...nothing because WWE and AEW both signed 300 wrestlers, ensuring it'll be another five years before anyone can even brainstorm a third national promotion. I still can't wrap my head around two companies having six hundred wrestlers between them while cutting back on dates! Yeah, they're dismissing bodies now, but how did that even happen in the first place? One had been pretending had shareholders to answer to, while Tony Khan doesn't seem like the type to smack down a secretary.

I remember being infuriated by the Wrestlemania main event where the Miz defended against John Cena because it just highlighted how worthless that Wrestlemania was. The WWE Title Match was just an angle to set up for the next year's Mania, and after having to sit through almost 15 minutes of Micheal Cole vs Jerry Lawler - which should have been a five minute squash match, if that - and being deprived of the advertised Sheamus/Daniel Bryan match, having a double-count finish in the main-event overturned only for the Rock to beat up both the Champion and Challenger all to set up a match for the following year just felt like having salt rubbed in a wound.

His morning Russo. Jim is a fucking classic.

As a rock fan he took some brutal early shots when this fued got going, the writing on wrist being the standout..i think his work schedule had a lot to do with that and after cena pointed that out his promos got far better as i think the humiliation made him focus on it more

The fact the company talked anyone back to WrestleMania after the awful card that was Mania 27 is a small miracle. I remember having a watch party with my closest friends. I've never been more embarrassed to be a wrestling fan.

I was either 13 or 14 when the rock came back and started this with Cena. This was the last year before I found out wrestling was truly pre determined and boy I’m glad I didn’t know then because this rivalry was everything among me and my friends! P.S. Chris Jericho was the one who spoiled it for me.

Haven’t seen the doc yet but the ECW crowd at One Night Stand 2006 chanted “fruity pebbles” at Cena

Cena kept saying that The Rock didn't love the business. I thought that idea was misguided from the start. Dwayne Johnson's mother's family is integral to the history of wrestling and so is his dad. If anything, Dwayne probably not only loves the business, but knows it better than most and how to transition to another career afterwards. (On a side note, I wonder if The Rock and Becky Lynch are good friends. She appeared on an episode of "The Young Rock" and her move, "The Manhandle Slam" is similar to "The Rock Bottom.") Cena later admitted that The Rock helped opened doors for him and others and seemed more appreciative of what The Rock has accomplished in WWE.

I loved corporate and Hollywood rock

1) Alex Riley was an earlier example of WWE needing to change shit for no reason. His whole "Varsity Villain" gimmick was, then, close to what early MJF was before MJF was a thing. And it was working. But it was his own gimmick. So, of course, they had to fuck with it and make him a generic Randy Orton with his "Riley Rage" or whatever. And, like everyone else, that not working was somehow his fault. 2) "The Awesome Truth" tag team was something that needed to be seen in context. It was bigger in the moment than it sounds in hindsight. Also, it makes me think on one of Punk's criticisms on what was going on backstage at the time: "If ratings are down, it's because Cena's not there. If Cena *is* there, and ratings are still down, it's _somehow_ the fault of Miz and R-Truth." (as opposed to the week to week product just being weak). 3) the best zinger in that whole Rock/Cena feud is Cena pulling out the "I Bring It... Via Satellite" shirt.

The Awesome Truth were over.

It’s amazing how so much has changed over the last decade. Yes, Miz was the top heel in 2011. Adding R-Truth to it made him a bigger heel in the fall of that year. Because of Wrestlemania 28, April 1st, 2012 is a day I will never forget.

To be fair, while R-Truth had abandoned being Ron Killings at that point and became a full on cartoon character, he was still a serious cartoon character, by WWE standards then. Had he actually beaten Cena, WWE might have had another star there. But of course he lost and got shoved down the card, like 99% of everyone who challenged Hulk Hog...I mean John Cena, as if challenging Cena for the belt once was the highlight of his career and there was nothing else to do with him afterwards. Truth ran into that AND the standard six months now lets play with the shiny new toy, like Ron Simmons squared.

2011 was a weird yet eventful year for WWE "Summer of Punk" & Bryan's rise to stardom. It definitely had one of the worst WrestleMania events ever. It's also the same year Edge retired, Triple H became the "COO", the height of Michael Cole's heel run & time as #1 chief Miz fanboy, the end of the Nexus stable, Kevin Nash returning, Michelle McCool's retirement, A lengthy Jerry Lawler/Michael Cole feud, "Tough Enough" returning, Kane returned with long hair and another half-mask, & Laurinaitis becoming a tv heel authority figure are amongst the other crazy things from 2011. Miz & R Truth were booked as being 2 of the top heels in the company(the other main heels being Del Rio and Mark Henry) & formed a tag-team due to their shared hate of Cena. Miz & R-Truth as a team was serious enough to the point where there was an angle where Miz & Truth were arrested for assaulting officials, talent & trespassing during a Hell In A Cell triple threat title match after they were "fired" by Triple H on an earlier Raw show. Of course, they ultimately broke up as a team not long after the Survivor Series loss to Rock & Cena. Also, someone should read the Wrestlemania 27 match to Cornette. Would love to hear his reaction to Lawler vs Michael Cole w/Swagger, Snooki being involved in a match, & Kane in an 8 man tag team with Santino of all people.

I will not suffer insults to his grace The Miz

R truth and John Morrison were big time over in this era.

Morning Russo killed me 😅
