WWE ratings are failing...retired wrestlers or guys not wrestling come in and Main Event PPV(Taker/ROCK)...Build up for feuds end with injuries to BIG stars (CENA/PUNK)...taking the best FACE in yrs and making him, outta no where, a "PUNK"...the product is no longer believeable!

Save it by turning it over to the young guys, pass the torch to Ziggler, memebers of the Shield, Sandow, Miz, Cody, Sheamus as a heel, Barrett, One Man band, McIntyre and bring back Morrison, with some veteran tutilidge from Cena, Punk, HHH, Orton.

Don't be predictable...don't release "spoilers" to get viewers, spring hidden surprises each week or so, to keep viewers interested, tuned in looking for the unexpected. Have a Star lose to an up in comer, like the Panthers upsetting the Falcons...it happens...its real...its life...its good conversation...it creative. ]]> 5 Finger Death Punch http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/community/entry.php?44198-Fall-of-an-Empire-WWE http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/community/entry.php?40859-BLOG-WARS-Sell-It-Best-Tag-Team-EVER Sat, 25 Feb 2012 17:16:24 GMT :eek:BLOG WAR!

Here is your chance to Sell it! Forget eras, timelines etc....Who is the best tag team ever in your opinion?

Here is how it works!

List you best ever team and give up to 5 reasons why!
Everyone check it out...submit your favorite and then come back next Saturday, 3/3 and vote! We will then proclaim the ewrestlingnews greatest tag team of all time.

HERE GOES:

The Road Warriors/Legion of Doom

1) Ring Entrance - The guys came to the ring, sometimes slow and methodical, but usually running like hell, to kick the sh*t outta their opponent, before the ring announcer intro, to the sounds of OZZY/Black Sabbath - Iron Man and/or the ahhhhhhh, What a Rush from HAWK!

2) Appearance - They were a first of their kind...war paint, spikes, shoulder pads, black and red, muscular and menacing look.

3) Original (often imitated, never imitated) Teams and individuals followed the Warriors with make-up, intimidation and metal music. They laucnched some careers of big names and saved career of others trying a similar "gimmick". The Bladerunners were the spandex wearing make-up wearing muscle boys from California...Mandingo Warrior and Blade...later known as the Ultimate Warrior and Sting. Demolition was WWF's copy of the Road Warrriors. Smash once performed as Repo-man and Krusher Kruschev while Axe was once the NWA US Champion as the Masked Superstar.

4) Multiples (titles, organizations, opponents and feuds) The Road Warriors won traditional, 6-man, 8-man titles in the AWA, NWA, WCW & WWE against some of the best tage teams in the world, faces and heels, as faces and heels. As heels, they were still cheered because of their precense and awesomeness...whatta rush. They defeated and defended against the Horsemen, The Fabulous Freebirds, Demolition, Steiners, Varsity Club, Kevin Sullivan's Dungeon, Russians, Rock n Roll and Midnight Express, Dudleys, Nasty Boys, and more.

5) Paul Ellering - the 1st educated, intellectual, well spoken manager, that discovered, promoted and developed the team from the beginning. Precious Paul stayed outta the way, most of the time, not interferring to win matches like JJ Dillon, Sherri Martell, Jim Cornette, Mr Fuji, Bobby Heenan and Captain Lou.

Where there is my vote...submit your team and come back Saturday and vote.

10. Rowdy Roddy Piper...bagpipes and march
9. Nikita Koloff slow walk to the ring, cage match, all the Horsemen are in the ring, surrounding Dusty...The Russians were feuding with Dusty and magnum TA. Nikita climbs in, much the surprise of Flair and AA...Flair smiles and steps aside to allow Nikita to go after Dusty. Nikita does his muscle flex, toungue pointing down and runs across the ring and hits the Russian Sickle(sp?) on Flair. Dusty and Nikita cleaned house and formed the Super Powers.
8. The Rock...if you smell what he is cookin'!
7. Stone Cold...glass breakin' and beer drinkin'
6. Jimmy Garvin...Cause every girl's crazy 'bout a Sharp Dressed Man...strut, air freshener spray, Precious and sequins!!
5. NWO...N...N....nWo...deir-deir...deir-deir
4. Road Warriors...Ozzy's Iron Man, war paint, shoulder pads and spikes and 2 big athletic monsters.
3. DX...HHH & Shawn....green X's and that video...Don't forget the crotch chop and the "SUCK It"!
2. Goldberg....the music, the locker room view with head banging into the lockers, the LOUD chant of GOLDBERG and his entrance pose, punches and blowing smoke from his nose...all in a slow, I'ev been there B4 walk!
1. Nature Boy Ric Flair...the anticipation...the robes and 2001 Space Odessey blairing throughout the arena....

No Hogan...see nWo...I hated the Real American, strut around the ring, hands to the ears, begging for cheers and ripping a pre-torn t-shirt!
I would list Hacksaw Jim Duggan, The Red Rooster, Brooklyn Brawler, Eugene and the Funkasauras Brodus Clay over Hogan...Ut-oh...my bad.

I'd also give an Honorable mention to the Macho Man Randy Savage and TNA's Sting. For the ladies...whatever Mickey James or Trish Stratus do/did, wear ,,,you get the point! ]]> 5 Finger Death Punch http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/community/entry.php?40646-Best-Ring-Entrances http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/community/entry.php?40645-Top-Tag-Teams-and-or-Stables-(10) Wed, 08 Feb 2012 20:57:49 GMT I grew up in the Mid-Atlantic area with the best ever wrestling organization...the NWA.

They emphasizes tag-team wrestling which spun-off groups, cliques and stables, as they had each others back. I wonder, who was the most influencial and significant. I suggest the following.

10. The Russians, Ivan & Nikita Koloff.
These guys were big, strong, mean wrestlers that gave a nation a way to fight evil with good.
9. Rock n Roll Express.
Girls and women tuned in to see them...hair-era...rock n roll as part of the show...ring entrances.
8. Legion of Doom/Road Warriors
Paint, spikes, Hawk and Animal...nuff said
7. Rickey Steamboat and Jay Youngblood.
Multi-time World Tag Team champions, one of the first of the high flying, speed teams to jump off the top rope and use the chop.
6. Super Powers - Dusty Rhodes & Nikita Koloff.
Teamed after the tragic accident to Magnum TA...battled the Horsemen as a team of new world allies.
5. Mega Powers.
Hogan & Savage came together at a time they were on top of the game and biggest draws.
4. 3-D/Dudleys.
Devon and Bubba/Bully Ray...more tag titles than anyone...successful in the ECW, WCW and WWE.
3. DX.
Revered and cheered as heels and babyfaces...sold the most merchandise ever(I guess)...mad mic skills etc,,
2. NWO.
The take over of WCW with former WWE heels Nash and Hall and then defection by Hogan to the group...many other feuds and defections.
1. The 4 Horsemen..
oftem immitated, never duplicated. The symbol of excellence, with 4 fingers in the air...best champion ever, best technical wrestler and enforcer in AA and great draw as people loved to hate them.

I am sure I missed someone...please offer suggestions or your own list! ]]> 5 Finger Death Punch http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/community/entry.php?40645-Top-Tag-Teams-and-or-Stables-(10)
