I hate people that refer to wrestling as "the business" and some of you are guilty of this.
Same with referring to wrestlers as "the boys".

A few opinions:
-Bianca Belair is a charisma vacuum and is arguably the most boring character in wrestling history
-love to see Eric Bischoff back working in wrestling as an active member...preferably as a heel, his work in NWO was brilliant
-Chris Jericho should have stayed in WWE...he is being overused in AEW and is hurting his legacy
-Hollywood Hogan is the finest work Terry Bollea has ever done in wrestling
-WWF should never have torpedoed Muhammad Hassan...the nuclear heat he could generate was as good as it gets and would have gone down as arguably the finest heel ever

His kicking out Michaels with his "dropping the ball" speech was brilliant...I bought in 100% he was the leader of DX. HHH is polarizing but that was some of his best work.
I always got the feeling Lawler was legit, an actual tough guy.

The product is going to get much better in 2025...my only complaint is not enough time invested in storylines, excepting the Bloodline which has been some superb stuff.
Hart vs Austin WM 13 is much better

You mean to tell me whipping your pony tail back and forth isn't the most charismatic thing in wrestling history?
Rock VS Roman is the biggest match they can do and is therefore the right call.
Wrestlemania is the biggest show, you do your biggest match in the main event of your biggest show.

This is a perfect example of not understanding the difference between good heat and bad heat. The mock beheading angle was in such horrible taste and got so much wrong heat that the US TV network SmackDown aired on outright demanded he be removed from the show. It was an awful gimmick that pretty much killed the guy's career.

The mock beheading angle is not true...so you are making up this up in order to have a petulant pop at a poster. The masked men kneeling was showing allegiance to Hassan + Daivari being used as a sacrificial lamb and carried out like a martyr in no way was a mock beheading ritual.
Perhaps I should have been more specific rather than assume you'd understand my point. The WWF should have never had that angle w/The Undertaker...that's what I was alluding to re: torpedoing his career. The WWF did not need to cross the line, he was already the hottest heel on the roster.
It's downright awful
I do think the Hassan character could have drawn a lot of "good" heat in terms of the fans, where it would draw "bad" heat is with the advertisers or tv networks executives who wouldn't want to be associated with such a controversial storyline

I like Belair. The only thing that sucks is when Graves is announcing when she wrestles. Annoying as hell.

I think the performer has potential but her character has had zero development essentially since she debuted on the main roster all the way back in 2020. Same music, same catchphrases, same schtick, etc.
Even the greatest wrestling characters evolve. Time for Belair to do the same.

They need to give her a program. Since losing the title, she hasn't been involved in anything.

A heel turn would help her but I also think she's one of the more popular stars among young girls and likely does a lot of appearances outside the ring on behalf of WWE. Then factor in her new show with Montez it doesn't scream a good time to turn her into a heel despite her character overall needing some freshening up.
Give her a new program and a new theme song wouldn't hurt.....at all.

Knew this was going to happen after they hinted at it in Young Rock.
Reigns wants to play fight and The Rock says something along the lines of "we gotta do that on a much bigger stage"
Rock VS Roman is the biggest possible match they can do though that's objectively a fact.

"Is therefore the right call" is objectively false considering they completely botched this roll out.

We're just having fun in here, so I won't get into why I believe this is pennywise/pound foolish and will have an adverse effect on the company for years. But I'm sure a lot of people in here can guess my general argument anyway.
I don't think anything is botched in fact after that press conference I'm more intrigued than I have been in YEARS

THIS. I guess this remains as an unpopular opinion. This is the best storyline in a long time. The Sami/Bloodline stuff was great, but this, even as it's only just starting, is even better.

Buddy of mine said Jericho is the real life version of Mickey Rourke in The Wrestler; I can't unsee it.
This one might get me heat seeing as he recently died but the truth is I was never a fan of Bray at any point, he was never great in the ring and his promo's were nonsense most of the time.
Also outside of 1 segment where he said Jey wasn't feeling Uecy Sami Zayn has never entertained me, and even in that segment Roman and Jey's reaction is what got me.
If Sami Zayn was released tomorrow WWE would lose nothing of value.
