I am sick to bloody death of this argument about women in wrestling. I don't know what is sadder, this feud, or the people actually defending her because they'd have sex with either of them...
This is the big problem with the WWE for the past 5 years...they tell you what to like, they put it in front of your face, and they say "live with it", no matter how terrible, delusional, or demented the storyline is!
Take these two for example....they are quintessential examples of what’s wrong with WWE: Almost all of the characters are all EXTERNAL. Everything! They could throw feces at each other, call it a “Thanksgiving Food Fight”, and people would still clamor to it “because they’re hot”. Just like Nathan Jones, and any other wrestler that Johnny Ace sees as eye candy! Someone needs to STOP that dude, and whoever else has that mentality that “they have the look, we can write the scripts for them and they’ll learn the rest”….because the problem is….THEY DON’T LEARN THE REST.
HOW IN THE WORLD do you develop new stars when all it is….is beautiful women, unbelievably physically gifted men, and freak shows who can’t work, can’t talk, and don’t have the tools or passion necessary to put on a compelling match, a compelling promo, or any of the like?!?!?!
With the exception of Hogan, isn’t it ironic that the people who made the most money in this business…the Austin’s, the Rock’s, the Cena’s, the Foley’s, the Taker’s, the Michaels’ and the Triple H’s…ALL of them got to be extensions of their real life personality? In addition, they played a HUGE role in how their character was chiseled out, UNLIKE people like these Kelly Kelly’s….YES I saw the Sandman shoot promo, and MAYBE she works hard and is willing to learn…but for her and Layla to get a big paycheck to EMBARRASS themselves on live, national TV like that…it’s humiliating!
I am sure that girls like KK could thrive in a business like this, under the right harness and conditions. Instead, she gets a script (WORD FOR WORD….WHICH NEEDS TO STOP!) and is told to feud with ANOTHER woman who is in the SAME POSITION. If they aren’t seasoned in acting, it shows on TV…and they look like fools. It’s almost as if these writers and Steph KNOW how bad they are, yet they put it out there for the world to see. I am tired of scripts, I am tired of melodrama terrible storylines, and I am NOT ALONE when I say that the writers, the McMahons, and the Johnny Aces need to get a grip on wrestling! They NEED to understand what makes the art of the business work…that segment with those two women will not sell ANYTHING…the entire purpose of this business is to put asses in seats. On a larger scale, HOW DO YOU DO THAT with inexperienced, uncoordinated people who can’t act, can’t work, and don’t understand how a story is told?
Simple….put on a pretty face. Give them a script. Teach them how to bump. The rest will take care of itself.
NO, IT WILL NOT.
