    Right now he's making 6 figures every time he fights. That will continue as long as he stays competitive.

    If he gets killed by JDS, and gets killed in his fight after that, he will be finished as a top earning fighter.

    The rub with that, is once exposed in the cage, a potential wrestling match loses some luster as well.

Not seeing HBK-Taker II is just negligent, if even for the hype surrounding it.

      How can I take the Top 100 seriously now?

      A year and a half of reading...for nothing.


      I am sad faced.
      lol@ a year and a half.

      But seriously, that match isnt going to change anything for either guy in terms of the list. I'm rock solid in my positioon for both, even if it turns out to be the best match i've ever seen (highly, highly doubtful).

        No WWE guy is at the top of Warner's list. Flair perhaps (although he's a NWA guy), but even Bret and Shawn won't be near the top.

        I take it, they'll be more low half of the top ten.

        I sense a swerve near the top too...perhaps Marufuji > KENTA :reptar:

          Don't be so sure.

            Of course not, its just, I expect W2B to do his due diligence.

                If, and this is a HUGE IF, Warner2BruceTD is indeed Isaac Bruce guy...#1 will be Shawn Michaels. IIRC, Isaac Bruce guy was a huge Michaels mark.

                  LAWLER.

                  W2B must love him some Memphis.

                  Cause I know it's not Edge. Has been boring as fuck over the past few years.

                    Well from reading everyone's remarks, it sounds like WM suck moose cock. I actually forgot it was on until 10pm last night.

                    I read the results and 2-things Im happy about.

                    UT won (really happy. I wonder if he will try to get to 20-0 or wont his body hold up)
                    Corre Lost - I fucking hate Wayne Barrett. I hated that entire Nexis angle. Like 6 rookies are going to show up and take over the WWE.

                    I'll be looking for the UT/HHH match, so if anyone has some links pleas send them my way.

                        Why can't anyone work undercard matches anymore? For christ's sake.

                        You have Edge and Mysterio working undercard matches with two young guys. They are expected to carry to the bulk of the match, but these guys are stiff and can't work for shit. These mopes haven't been interesting in a decade. I feel bad for ADR and Rhodes, two guys that actually have something, but working with these black holes will never get you anywhere close to a good match these days.

                        Then you have Punk, another really good worker, paired with Orton who couldn't sell a homeless man free money.

                        You then put all of your strong mid-card workers in junk. Morrison, Ziggler, Bryan, Barrett, Kingston...five guys you can probably count on for a good match, in matches sent to legit curtain jerker status, and a total of 5m in squashes between two matches.

                        Awful.

                        The E needs to bring back guys like Jericho, Angle, and Michaels.

                            Jericho pretty much said flat out that he didn't want to come back at WM and be completely overshadowed by UT and HHH's returns.

                            I'll be surprised if he's not back when his current... gig... is up.

                                I completely agree with not understanding why the mid-carders you mentioned got such shit matches. They couldn't of thought to put those 5 and Sheamus in something like an elimination match or a ladder match for the US title to add some type of excitement? That 8 man tag, 5 minute match was the biggest waste of a spot on the card, it seemed like it didn't even need to be had.
