As far as I can tell Randy Orton,John Cena, Edge(how old is he?) and maybe Bobby Lashley can stand up to HHH and HBK because they are right now the top 3 young guys and would not have to worry about being fired due to HHH and HBK's backstage influence because WWE can't afford the risk of them going to TNA. They only veterans backstage that I like are Taker,Kane,Finlay and maybe a few others because they aren't trying to hold people back and are not all about being number one in the sun.
^^ yeah he certainly still does. If you mess with him he usually kicks up a shit storm.
yeah WWE need to be careful behind the scenes, its long days being a WWE superstar, your a doing roadshows nearly everyday and travelling all over the world. Must drain fatigue big time. It aint just turn up one day for RAW and go home.
They really need to get some big superstars made, the top 10 superstars arnt that HUGE like it was back in the day with the likes of Taker, Kane, Austin, Rock, Foley etc etc
The only HUGE superstar that is new would be Cena but one problem with the wwe making more is because the is no competition on the same time as them. The attitude era and the monday night wars helped bringing wrestling into a new level and then it ended.
Another problem I have with the wwe other than their women's and tag competition (which are pretty bad for the most part) is the choreography of the matches are so predictable by now.

Yes man. I never watch anymore because by now I can literally predict how the matches will turn out. 🙁
It is the worst usually in tag team matches. They would have the face team start out winning then a heel would do a cheap shot and the control most of the match with an occasional offensive move by the face being targeted in the ring. Then both guys go down and the partners get the tag and the face cleans house and that would usually lead to the finishers and there is the match.
At least TNA tag matches have more to it than that not to mention they actually keep a tag team a contender for a long time. WWE would hype up a tag team and they would either win the title or fall off the radar pretty fast and even when you win,you will lose and then you fall. There are very few tag teams that are around for a while and still in that dominant position. The only one I can see right now in WWE would be Cade and Murdoch and they have nothing on TNA's tag champs AJ Styles and Tomko, LAX,Team 3D or the Motor City Machine Guns.
I doubt that. TNA maybe putting better shows at times but they simply don't have the exposure or the fan base the WWE has. Just look at the PPV buy rates TNA gets a considerable amount less of buys than wwe and they charge less. I think it will take a few years because they are just starting to do house shows and ppvs outside Orlando.
EDIT: WWE also does not allow their wreslters to do certain moves they consider to dangerous while TNA does not have this restrcition. I think the wwe has limited the piledrive to Kane and undertaker's tombstone and you barely see that.
Hornswoggle in the Royal Rumble is a disgrace...
That, and the horrible Diva gimmick matches... Yes, they're REALLY hot, but let them at least TRY to be competitive! Honestly, TNA's women's division KILLS the WWE's...
There are so many flaws in the WWE right now... Like, but not limited to...
1. Over reliance on John Cena... He isn't all that good, tbh... Cuck Fena, honestly...
2. The horrible Diva matches (see above)
3. Not pushing the right guys (Shelton Benjamin has deserved a good push for a LONG time, and is just now getting it, while Batista, an inferior wrestler, gets the spotlight)
4. Horrible Storylines (Hornswoggle? WTF?!?!)
It's even worse that you can't e-mail them with complaints/suggestions... If you do, they just throw it out... Honestly, it's time for Vince to retire... He's lost his touch, and is too idiotic and prideful to listen to the fans, who pretty much GAVE him those millions of dollars he has...
So until WWE shapes up, I'll be watching TNA and puroresu...
Bat Dude, I completely agree with you. I was going to post some of this myself especially about the wwe diva but you have saved me some time. 😉 But these gimmick matches are just ridiculous right now and they were only decent in the wwe when you had Stacy Keibler and Torrie Wilson doing them. I was laughing yesterday when I heard the divas scream when they were being hit buy the pillows. The only wwe divas right now that can actually wresltle are Melina,Mickie James and Victoria (torrie wilson is getting better) Atleast the TNA knockouts can wreslte and are pretty hot too with the exception of Awesome Knog and Roxie Lavveux (Sp?) BTW except a good knockout match this week.
Your right the wwe should start pushing Orton,Edge,Kennedy,Lashely more because the wwe can't survive with just cena and the hornswaggle storyline is good for a few laughs but come on the storyline with Mr. Kennedy would be a million times better and it would involve mataches with Shane,Triple H and maybe even Vince which is better than wacthing hornswaggle.
