I actually dislike Heyman, I am very much against all these stupid hardcore gimmick matches
"ok we need something fresh, ok lets make a ring with bombs in it and barbed wire ropes that we will drip in lighter fluid and light on fire that's a great idea"
I personally like my good old fashioned wrestling where a suplex was enough to finish someone off nobody got up from a big boot the refs actually called DQ's and count outs, and when a steel cage match was a huge deal.
I think one of the problems with wrestling now is that it has gone too far. Everyone is expecting something huge they have overdone everything.
I remember when Who Wants to be a Millionaire first came on the air and they only aired it for like 3 weeks and then it was gone for like 6 months and then back for another 3 weeks and then gone and then back. it kept the anticipation there. Then it went on primetime 5 nights a week all the time, and well it just wasn't cool anymore, it got boring it was the same thing.
That's the problem with wrestling now, it was a big deal to see your two big guys duke it out on a PPV, or to see a Steel Cage Match, now it happens almost every week on Raw or Smackdown, and it just doesn't matter anymore.
"Tonight in your main event on raw we have a TLC Match between HHH and The Undertaker" or "We have a Hell in the Cell between Brock Lesner and Kurt Angle"
It just doesn't matter anymore because nothing is special it's all just there all the time...I remember when I was young and would save my money to buy Royal Rumble, Survivor Series, King of the Ring, Summer Slam, and Wrestlemania, back when those were the only pay perviews and you knew that if a title was going to change hands that was the only place it would happen, and if something big was going to go down it would happen there. Now the title changes hands all the time, so PPV's aren't as impressive anymore.
I still would watch Raw and Smackdown because you knew stuff would happen but it would be like Shawn Michaels vs Barry Horrowitz and Deisel would come down and distract Shawn and they would brawl on the outside and there would be a count out.
WWF I mean WWE has to go back to making the PPV's matter and not having the big matches on RAW and Smackdown everyweek and not having all those stipulation matches every week on raw.
My favorite booker would have to be Gorilla Monsoon, Pat Patterson, and I can't remember who else was booking for the WWF back in the day.
Who is the best booker in the business?
