Has the Gooker jumped the shark?

[M-Wick]

After this week's induction, it seems that RD and Blade at least partially agree with the conclusions of this thread, and have decided that Gooker-worthy angles can be inducted early (and thus presumably disqualified from Gooker contention) if they feel like it.

Is it time to re-assess the Gooker selection process? At this point, is the Gooker in jeopardy of being meaningless? Perhaps RD, Blade, and KKK should select the Gooker themselves instead of tossing it to the great unwashed, or maybe we should pick the Gooker after another year's break, so the 2011 Gooker would be picked in early 2013, or maybe develop some iterative process for determining the Gooker so angles from earlier in the year have a better shot. Or maybe get rid of it entirely. What do you think?

It already is a meaningless award. It is just people's opinions. I have disagreed with a few gooker winners most notably the Invasion.

It is what it is and at the end of the day RD knows and understands its the fans that should make the majority of what the gooker is declared for the year.

No I don't think it's jumped

It's true that there is some bias towards angles later in the year, and hey if the circumstances are correct (we know it's gooker worthy, it's done early in the year, it's impossible to just reboot it, or their is a chance it might rebound and become great) then I say go for it. One more induction, one more set of laughs I say.

I think the selection process does have some problems.

Man, what's with people getting all serious recently about Wrestlecrap? Bad vibes dude...

Urm...you know that by discussing this, you become Nathaniel.

Just sayin'

All these threads are is multiple paragraphs and people saying "Democracy doesn't work".

We aren't electing the President here, we are simply saying what we thought was the worst thing to happen in wrestling that year.

I personally, am insulted that nothing from TNA has made it yet. WWE does give some pretty stiff competition, but I mean, come on!!!! Rellik/Black Reign, EY vs Roode, Cody Deaner!? TNA definitely deserves one in 2010.

[MolotovMocktail]

I wouldn't doubt it, but TNA has been so bad I haven't watched it in 3 years. Therefore, if something is nominated, I wouldn't vote for it since I haven't seen it.

Can Daniel Bryan's firing be nominated? The only other thing WWE has done that was outright awful was Raw Is Macgruber.

I don't think the Gooker would be mobile enough to jump over a fellow as tall as The Shark. Cartwheels are one thing; vaulting over a tall fellow is another.
