WWE: Dissention in the ranks?

We're starting to see more stories like these finally leak out and it's about time. We've all been expecting it and I only expect the following conditions to increase and get worse:




Quote:
 

The word going around the WWE locker room is that Vince McMahon’s behavior is getting even worse. One source was quoted as to saying "He has everyone on edge because you never know when Vince is going to show up." McMahon is said to be very moody and unpredictable.

A top unnamed WWE superstar has been telling friends that he wished he wouldn’t of signed a contract extension with WWE the last time for as long as he did. The superstar says he would prefer to head to TNA for a variety of reasons.

Another WWE wrestler was quoted as saying "The guys who used to be marks for being in WWE are starting to see TNA as a better place to be.” "TNA is seen as a viable alternative by more and more guys."

WWE is aware of these issues, therefore are requiring superstars to re-sign at least four to six months before their contracts expire so they will not be main-eventing one week in WWE and then debuting in TNA the next.


No names. No references. You have to treat this like glorifed hearsay and that's fine, but does any of this really surprise anyone?

Why wouldn't any of the above be true? It fits the facts on the ground and matches many other things we've seen and heard increasingly since WWE bought everyone out.



You know that Kurt Angle's key defection had to have been the beginning of a serious domino effect, despite the way he did it.

There's always more than one side to every story. If the above is all correct, then maybe it simply boiled down to Kurt doing whatever he had to do to get out.



One of many gripes that dates back to my now ancient "TNA is dropping the ball thread" in that forum is now starting to reverse itself.

This is glorified hearsay off of LOP, but does this stuff really surprise anyone?

The truth of the matter is, is like many of us have said for the last few years since TNA was born:

TNA can BECOME something pretty important if you have a few key defections take place.

If the morale and attitude are truly like what's being spelled out in the quoted item above, it's just a matter of time before people find ways out of their contracts or around them.

A few more key defections like Angle could go a long ways.

I'm all for it. The talent is what makes you what you are, first and foremost.

You may not make as much money in TNA, but you're also not working like a @#$%ing insane manic practically year around. You can't even begin to put a dollar figure on something like having your health and actually having a rea life outside of your job.

I hope this isn't just rumor and hearsay and I hope we start seeing something come of it.

I'm no TNA fan, but I'm a fan of one wrestling organization not having complete monopoly and control over everything.

Competition is good! Competition forces quality! I'm cheering for some more key defections to take place ASAP. Just imagine if a guy like Benoit, who I very much suspect is one of the superstars quoted above, went off to TNA.

Imagine Benoit and Angle both in TNA?... It can happen. Maybe it should.

I agree with everything you said Q, except I don't view Kurt as a defection. I mean if you're going to put stock in this hearsay, then you might as well put stock in the rumor reported by PWInsider no less that Kurt was hand writing letters to McMahon trying to get his job back.

And the way I see it is, if McMahon didn't want Kurt in TNA, Kurt wouldn't be in TNA.

But overall, I agree and can believe it.

Well, it's all a matter of how you use your talent. In TNA, they are just as hit and miss with the way they use guys. Look at the X-division...it's hit or miss. One year it's the biggest and best thing they've got going and the next it's being booked as something for Kevin Nash to poke fun at.

But you look at how they use a guy like Rhyno...Rhyno is a valuable commodity in the role that TNA uses him in. He's not a legit main-eventer, but he can main-event. He's a very good upper mid-card wrestler. WWE has no idea what to do with a guy like that...a guy that can get the job done in the ring, but can't do much on the microphone.

Look at how they book Christian. Christian is a main-eventer with big programs coming against the likes of Sting and Samoa Joe. He's not great at anything, but he's good at everything. But for whatever reason, the WWE couldn't figure out how to use him.

If TNA could figure out a way to make their main-event scene more exciting (i.e. getting rid of Jeff Jarrett), I'd be more willing to watch it. TNA's main-event is a cycle...but it's a boring one. It's Jarrett loses the title to someone. That someone goes on to face Abyss. Abyss never wins the title so that's not really all that interesting. The someone ends up facing another upper mid-carder like Rhyno or Monty Brown and then eventually drops the belt back to Jarrett so the cycle can repeat itself.

Now, if I'm a WWE guy like a Shelton Benjamin, and I have a chance to go to a place where the fans appreciate wrestling above all...a place where they're willing to look past a lack of mic skills (or at least let guys try to improve them)...then I'd go to that place and let them make me a star.

If I'm a guy like Benoit, I go there as an established star to help make guys like AJ Styles into consistent main-event players. I go there to put over Abyss...I go there to put over Samoa Joe in a battle of submission machines.

The reasons to stay in WWE are decreasing. Sure, they do some things right and occassionally make things exciting. But I'm getting to the point to where I really want to see some alternative. I'll probably always be a WWE guy, as I highly doubt there's any chance I can make any money on the side for writing about any other fed (and my goal is to make some money on the side with my writing eventually). BUT, i'm definitely in the mood to see a TNA-type promotion give me something to enjoy watching on Thursday nights.

Honestly, if you love to watch wrestling, then the WWE is increasingly becoming the fed you SHOULD NOT watch. Benoit is in his twilight years...Rey mysterio is, too...ditto for HBK...Y2J and Angle are gone...They aren't building up new stars that are lighting up the wrestling aspect of sports entertainment.

But who is? TNA...they are taking great wrestlers like Angle away from WWE. They are taking good wrestlers who got mis-used like Christian away from WWE. They are taking solid mid-carders like Rhyno away. They are pushing fantastic wrestlers like Samoa Joe, AJ, Daniels, Sabin (who is underrated), etc, setting up dream matches like Angle vs. Joe...Angle vs. Styles or Daniels.

TNA is cleaning up the indies...signing Joe was HUGE for them. Now, they ought to go out and get Bryan Danielson...

In conclusion, the WWE will always have a following doing what they always do. They'll have a following building up guys like Cena and Orton for future main-events. They'll have Wrestlemania. But, if you are guy who wants to have 5-star, MOTY caliber bouts, the alternatives like TNA are going to be the place for you.

If I'm guys like Haas, Benjamin, and even Benoit? Yeah, I'm looking out of the corner of my eye at TNA. Don't think Carlito isn't, either, given the horrible treatment and mishandling his character has had. "Be more like the Rock." :rolleyes:

And let's see what becomes of Rey when he heals up in 6 months or so...

You never know.




Stinger: I take all of this stuff with a grain of salt, either way.

If Vince wanted Kurt to stay, I'm sure he would have moved heaven and earth to make that happen, which is where we come to many questions about that whole thing, right down to my wild super work theory.

Who knows?

Just good discussion fodder here overall, methinks. :)

If you are Benoit....why go to tna?! Why not stay with WWE til you retire...?

You are guaranteed a spot on their staff, which is a guaranteed pay check after you retire....

You are giving meaning back to the US title...and you will sooner or later be in the HOF.....why go to TNA to wrestle Jeff Jarrett and Abyss?!

Lita wont sign with TNA. No way. First off, she has a husband in the opposing company, and the reason she's leaving WWE in the first place is to focus on her band.

Don't worry about Lita ;)

Because instead of being stuck in the midcard doing jackshit and working for about 340 days out of the year, he could go to TNA and basically chill and immediately be at the top of the card. ;)

Why not go to TNA? What's Benoit doing in the WWE right now? Hell, he probably wonders why he even bothered to come back from resting up.

So he can get hurt again when they run him into the ground for 340 plus days a year shitting in the mid card? The hell with that!



I'm looking at it from their POV, not a fan's POV. Think about it.

It's almost why he left WCW all over again if you think about it.

I know I'm preaching to the choir if I start in on one of my rants about how Benoit has been treated since losing that world title to Orton. It's a disgrace.

Probably true.

I think leaking something like that to the press is a negotiating tool/leverage trick.

I wish they'd get her away from Edge, though, no matter what.

Talk of Lita's future marriage plans aside, it's not hard to believe there's something bubbling under the surface at WWE.

The fact is that, when I've watched as little wrestling as I have over the last three months since around SummerSlam time, simply because aside from the fact that things have been hectic, WWE television simply HAS NOT interested me in the least, then I know something is wrong.

What I mean is, I thought it looked like WWE was regaining it's momentum from late-2004 through the early months of this year, but they faltered somewhere along the line and it's showing in the product and in the numbers.

And I know that's probably being reflected in backstage morale....

As far as me as a fan, I've watched for a long time and was always able to maintain some interest even when there was a lot of crap going on. I could always find something on their programs that kept me watching and wouldn't allow me to miss a single show or pay-per-view.

Before New Year's Revolution in January, I hadn't missed a pay-per-view since Backlash 2001, and that was only because I was out of twon at the time. Going back before that, I hadn't missed one since Survivor Series 1999.

So that's two shows I'd missed in what was just over six years when this year's NYR rolled around in January.

I proceeded to not order New Year's Revolution, and though I did see every pay-per-view from Royal Rumble through SummerSlam, I haven't bothered with Unforgiven, No Mercy and Cyber Sunday since. That's unprecedented.

As far as the shows, I've watched one complete RAW in the past two months, no complete SmackDown! since August and no complete ECW since then, either.

And I've seen where RAW has dropped back to 3.6's and whatnot since after SummerSlam, which is a total regression to the ratings it was doing in 2003. I know ESPN's Monday Night Football has had an effect on it since both shows are now competing for cable/satellite ratings, but that's a disappointing drop for WWE, especially with guys like D-X, Cena, Edge and Orton headlining that show.

The upcoming Survivor Series card, as well as the fact the Sandman got us some awesome seats to Armageddon in Richmond in December, have sparked the first signs of any anticipation towards something wrestling-related that I've had in months......

As far as TNA, I still don't like them. I feel like it reeks of bad WCW, right from Jarrett down to the poor announcing from the two jackasses in the booth.

I won't watch just because they have Angle, and I wouldn't start watching if Benoit went over there, either. Angle's out of control in that he refuses to acknowledge his physical problems, so I feel that he'll sadly be done soon. And Benoit, to me, would just be another jobber for Jarrett.

In other words, I'm not interested.

^^ You certainly raise all the valid points as to why all of this would be a disaster.

In fact, and like 9/10 times, it's like you basically took most of my thoughts from several months and put them down. ;)

Yup, you and me both. Like I've told you all several times: I've used Tivo and there's been mostly fast forwarding going on, commercials notwithstanding. I can't say it's gotten much better for me.

Hell, I've spent more time with this RAW vs. Smackdown 2007 demo than I have actually watching real stuff.

I'll bet you've appreciated the extra money that's saved you. That's about what? Damn near $150 right there? That's good money! ;)

ESPN MNF has some impact, but not that much. MNF is "just another game" now, and most of those games have been skips anyways, at least for me.

But it's like we've all talked about. The writing and booking is terrible and RAW basically has become DX vs. whoever and Cena vs. whoever and throw some other guys into usually meaningless matches real quick, mix, and that's it.

I've made my feelings known about ECW in the other thread, but some folks here really swear by it. SD? I'm sorry, but I have better things to do on a Friday night for two hours, like watching paint dry.

The point being is: There's no excuse for the WWE as a whole to be so lethargic and mediocre with the kind of talent they're sitting on.

But that's the point and that's something I've harped on a million times since WWE bought everyone out and created this ultimate expression in arrogance: A simulated "competition" known as the brand split.

It's bullshit.

And like anything else: Competition forces quality. Lack of competition breeds arrogance, mediocrity, and lethargy.

^^ How many times have you all seen me write and predict that ever since WWE bought everyone out? It was inevitable and here we are.

Agreed 100 percent.



The only thing I'm referring to is something you and some of the other long timers have seen me talk about since my LOP days:

The only way you shake up this WWE monopoly is you would need some contender out there and a few key defections.

If Benoit and some of those guys went over to TNA...very likely it would end up like what you're talking about, and that would indeed suck.

TNA could be that contender were it not for Jarret and the clear last days' WCW politics and mindset they are running under.



I'll say again: It's a realy shame Paul Heyman decided to sellout and suck Vince's tit. Paul Heyman could have made the difference out there somehow.

Remember: "Keep your friends close. Keep your enemies closer." Vince is just sitting on talent and he knows he doesn't have to do much except keep those guys locked in so they don't go somewhere else.

That's all it is.






And yeah, I couldn't care less who Lita marries either. F@#$ her.

If Matt is really dumb enough to ever trust her again to even walk across the street, let alone something like that? Just take a gun and kill yourself, son.

It's a whole lot faster, cleaner, and less headaches and troubles for the same end result. <= And that's all I have to say about that. ;)

Well, i was arguing with an LOP guy recently about TNA and WWE. And he brought up a good point that I'd like to share...

He said something along the lines of there "being three or four guys in TNA (Daniels, Styles, Joe, and Sabin)" that he watches for, whereas with WWE he doesn't think there's anyone getting pushed that is all that interesting to watch.

I thought about that. And that's why I decided to give TNA a look this past week. I just finished watching Samoa Joe's best-of DVD, and it's amazing. He is one of the most unique talents I've ever watched in pro-wrestling. Then there's AJ Styles, one of my favorite wrestlers that I never watch. Throw in Christian and Kurt Angle, two guys who I used to love watching for the last 5-6 years (2-3 in Christian's case), and a view great wrestlers like Daniels and Sabin to compliment them, and I found my reason to watch TNA. I will try to watch TNA from now on, especially w/ football winding down and the big Thursday games all but over for 2006.

In WWE, meanwhile, most of the guys I love to watch are gone or on the show I refuse to waste my time with (SD). Others who I enjoy, like Shelton Benjamin, Nitro, Carlito, and Jeff Hardy, waste away in 2-minute matches on Raw every week. As much as I enjoy CM Punk, he only gets a few minutes a week, too.

So, between ECW and Raw every week, I get to see my favorite wrestler of all-time, HBK, play second fiddle to HHH in a version of DX that I'm desperately trying to tolerate. I get to see one good match a week from ECW. And the only other guy I truly enjoy that's getting any kind of air-time on WWE television is Edge.

So, there's obviously not only dissention in the WWE ranks, but also in the ranks of its fans. Raw is absolutely AWFUL...I'm giving 2-5 ratings every week. I never gave below a 5.5/10 when I reviewed SD...not once!

The shitty thing about WWE is that they jacked up PPV prices, but that's where all the good wrestling takes place (for the large majority, anyway). If I want to watch wrestling, I have to pay 40 bucks to do it. And even still, there's no guarentee I'm going to get anywhere close to my money's worth.

In 2005, I thought I got my money's worth at NYR, Royal Rumble (great PPV), Wrestlemania, Backlash, Judgment Day, ECW (great PPV), Vengeance (great PPV), Summerslam (very good), Unforgiven (surprisingly good), Survivor Series, and Armageddon. Only 4 PPVs didn't give me money's worth last year.

In 2006, I think I've got my money's worth at NYR, NWO, Wrestlemania, Backlash, ECW, Summerslam, Unforgiven. There's already been 6 PPVs that didn't give me my money's worth and we've still got 3 left!

I've said a lot this year...2005 OWNS 2006...

I refuse to waste perfectly good time out of my life to watch TNA, but you do bring up a good idea: I can cut through a lot of bullshit buy renting or buying DVD's of guys like Styles, Daniels, Joe, etc.

Thanks! Great idea! :)

Agreed 100 percent.

One point again: WWE has been criminally overpriced on their PPV's for years. Now it's reach insanity outright.

I refuse to buy any of their PPV's at that price. I either go to the sports bar or find other means without a smidgen of guilt. I refuse to be robbed.

None of it is worth it at those kinds of prices.

I recommend everyone on this board watch TNA's 2-hour primetime debut...

They will finally be given the time necessary to produce a good television show. An hour, unless you've got a Paul Heyman, is not long enough to book a sufficiently entertaining wrestling program (going off my years of watching wrestling on TV).

There will be four matches worth watching...

The Naturals (a very good tag team) vs. Team 3D in a tables match...

Christian vs. Rhino in a 6-Side of Barbed Wire Steel Cage match...

AJ Styles vs. Chris Sabin vs. Christopher Daniels...

Kurt Angle vs. Abyss

It's worth checking out...
