During the Wrestlemania 14 era, the better talent was getting all of the pushes. Now we're back to bullshit. I can't express in words how fucking angry I get to see Hogan, Triple H, and other fuckers in the main event.
The other thing that KILLS me is that no matter how talented the individual is, they are all required to wrestle the same style. The WWF style means you get about 4 signature moves and you do those every single match. Then one guys hits the finisher and it's over.
It's really annoying. Psychology and just plain kickass matches are out the window.
ECW was the shit. I went to one TNN taping and it was easily the best wrestling show I have ever been to. They just try to make it a fun event for everyone and it was. Rob Van Dam displayed more effort than 90% of WWF wrestlers do any day of the week, and his match wasn't even televised.
Even he sucks in the WWF now though. B/c, like I said, they gave him four moves and he does them every match. There's no chance of him doing the shocking stuff he'd pull in ECW.
