Celeb ageing is just different in many ways with all the $$$ they have, time and resources to keep themselves in shape and stress free etc and perhaps genetics too.
So many guys in their 50s like Tom cruise, Brad Pitt etc look better than most ordinary men in their late 30s to early 40s

Yeah we can’t classify the Attitude Era as anything but classic anymore. Austin’s first WWF Title reign is longer ago in time to us than Superstar Billy Graham’s WWWF Title Reign was to those people in 1998. Stop with the crushing reality dammit!

Untrained guy in bar Vs a prime Hogan, Cena, Austin, Rock, Taker or HHH? I'd pick the wrestler because of the size and strength and the fact they're athletes.

We gotta accept that 9/10 wrestlers wouldn’t do shit in a real fight. Why? They’d be more much apt to do better in a fight than any regular human. They’re still freakish athletes, strong by trade, people who take pain on the daily, and if forced into a real fighting situation those would probably be to their advantage. Not against professional or even amateur level fighters, but if someone was to get in a bar fight after throwing back a few I don’t think they’d be as overmatched as you make it seem. That said, I think Pat the Punter would roll Adam Cole. Too much size and also an athlete, proven tough even for a punter. When they were facing off Pat’s one sleeveless arm is the size of Cole’s entire torso. Lmao This. Wrestler Vs average guy would see a lot of wrestlers win. Many are massive, hugely athletic and strong. Possibly PEDs too. But then there's Brock Lesnar..

I know what you mean. When you have a MEGASTAR like stone cold in his prime, he doesn't lose to a guy like Jeff Jarrett. You just don't do it. The hierarchy is for a reason.

This still makes me laugh
According to Ryback, he proposed an angle to Vince McMahon that he thought would make him seem like a credible WrestleMania opponent for Lesnar to the WWE audience. As the story goes, Ryback would appear to leave the company to go and compete in the world of MMA, only to return to WWE with newly acquired MMA skills.
"My idea was, and I went to Vince, I've been asking for Brock Lesnar for WrestleMania for the last three years. But I told Vince, 'you have to build me up properly.' And I go, 'this pay-per-view, it will break all-time records if you build this match up properly.' And I asked him, 'you need to let me go away for six months' and I go, 'I live in Las Vegas. MMA is hugely, insanely popular. It's pretty much the breeding ground here in Las Vegas of MMA.' I said, 'let me go join a fight camp, full-time, for six months. We will make it look like I'm about to go out and do a real fight. I come back to WWE though, and I challenge Brock Lesnar to a match at WrestleMania.'"
"Vince, just completely, it went over his head and I just remember sitting there dumbfounded. Like, 'Jesus Christ! You can't f--king be that out of touch.' Maybe he didn't want me to go away for six months or whatnot. I don't know."

Their first Hell in a Cell match is my favorite. It's just so goddamn brutal, which is what a Hell in a Cell match should be. And Heyman's performance during it was amazing. Agreed. I still like the second one too

I could of seen him having somewhat of a Cena type run. Wind down in 2002, maybe win a world title in 2003, then have a final world title run as a heel in 04-05 before passing the torch to Cena. From There on out he’d be a part timer If he didn't get hurt I think he could have gone to at least 2008 or a bit later as Shawn and Taker were still going then at the same age

Problem is it benefited his career character and popularity wise (if you think about it), in the long run. He was out and inactive for months which meant all he could do was cut awesome promos and stun mfers including of course Vince. It basically helped start the Vince feud.
Who knows if it would have gone as well if he never got hurt. Obviously I'd prefer if he didn't get hurt

1998-2001, Stone Cold was my absolute hero. Had like ten posters of him.
Sorry don't have anything to add about the new product. Don't really watch.

I don't care. The show has sucked for decades.
