And how about that Rocky...

Keep on fighting the good fight Kane!

News media a bit silly still using his gimmick name after mentioning his real name, but whatever.

Love Kane the wrestler, hate Kane the politician. Like the Sith, he believes in absolutes.

Suicide was, in fact, TJ Perkins.

Say what you want about Rock, but that guy has the life. He used wrestling to be able to do whatever the fuck he wants. He puts wrestling success stories like Hogan and Flair, or even Sting or Austin who have escaped with their health, to shame.

From that picture though, he needs to stop skipping leg day at the gym.

[EmpireWF]

No idea what kind of workouts he's been doing since WM.....the whole pelvis injury and all.

Though he does have the Hercules movie coming up.

Don't underestimate Austin...I'd say he lives as good a life as Rock right now.

Oh, Austin made a shitton of money. And I'm sure he loves just hunting and being a redneck all the time. But Rock still gets very, very good work without having to sacrifice his body (unless you count the steroid use), and continues to bank off the Rock name. Austin has had a few movies and some TV spots, but Rock has a career and a great one at that. Austin, and Foley now that I think about it, are the next tier of guys who got out while they could still walk and were smart/successful enough to be set for life. But Rock is in a tier all his own, from being the only substantial crossover superstar.

Is TJ Perkins going to be Suicide on a full time basis now?

Austin does a ton of shit because he wants to...he does shitty action movies straight to DVD, because he wants to. He hosts random shows because he wants to. He does a podcast, because he wants to.

Two different guys though with two different sets of post-wrestling aspirations...both set for life a few times over.

I read that it was going to be a variety of people, including Daniels. Basically whoever is hanging around. But who knows.

That's not arguable, but Rock gets the spotlight and millions more. Again, he has a career, post-career. Austin dabbles for less money. Still two wildly successful guys, Rock is just a notch above.

Total waste of TV time. Nobody gives a shit about that character.
