    I'm sure they wouldn't care, but it isn't a good thing for the fans if WWE wastes the money, and could be using it on other superstars or other stuff.

            DDT Pro-Wrestling on The Apartment Complex 8/24/11

            Thanks to JayCuk

            This is an amazing concept. DDT rented a huge apartment complex. Ibushi Kota has keys and wrestles different wrestlers from each room. Every time he opens an apartment door, a wrestler awaits him (sometimes they’re busy doing other things) and a match starts. Wrestling fans also follow him through his fights into the complex. Ibushi wrestles into either into extremely small Japanese rooms or huge lofts. This is like the BJW or IWA concept of the house match, but in a more humorous way – DDT Style!

              I don't think a single heel won a match on WWE television this week, And the WWE wonders why nobody cares about anyone of the heels in the company.

                I know its just Bleacher Report but I think it makes some great points about the WWE.

                No television show is safe forever. Even insanely long running soap operas like Guiding Light and As the World Turns ran for over 50 years each, but inevitably met their end...

                  The guy says RAW may not make it 19 years to episode 2000.

                  None of that really matters, what he posted above...except for ratings. The only logical reason to suggest RAW will ever get canceled, is something with TV executives. It's why ECW lost their TV, it's why WCW lost all of their TV.

                  WWE is going to be where it is for as long as there are friendly TV executives around...and their ratings don't totally tank to the point that they become a mole on the face of USA.

                      College Football is here...RAW can kick rocks...Saturday Morning Salsa can suck muh diiiiiiick...TNA can rot on my DVR until I get around to it...Smackdown, lol, I never watch that anyway...

                      Wrestling better make its way to the back seat like Rosa Parks.

                            Hogan has been doing commercials/infomercials for years.

                            He's a hustler in that realm. He wants to be another Billy Mays...for real.

                              Hogan always says George Foreman stole his idea for the grill.

                                Those things could lead to a decline in ratings, but unless TNA really steps their game up and can poach some of WWE's talent (while keeping their own) and sustains success over a few years, WWE isn't going anywhere.
