El-P Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 And realistically, women's wrestling being taken seriously in a "major" US promotion in the modern era began in 2007 with TNA when Dutch Mantell decided he wanted to showcase the girls and they signed Amazing Kong to feud with Gail Kim. But that's beside the point. The fact WWE can't stand people getting over on their own is immensely stupid and a big part of what's wrong with them. That was the point of the whole business. "Go get over !". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted September 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 It's one of the most frustrating aspects of WWE, both as a fan and to the performers, is hearing HHH or Vince going on and on about brass rings and all that bullshit knowing full well anyone who does that just gets smacked back down if they weren't someone the company was already planning to push. I don't get why they do it either. If I'm running a company and someone I wasn't planning to push suddenly starts getting a following for whatever reason, why not go with it? If it works, great, everyone makes money. If it doesn't, no harm done since I wasn't planning to do anything with the guy anyway. It just smacks of petty "I decide who gets over, not you" stupidity, which makes stuff like Cena's quasi-shoot on Roman even more eye rolling when he has the balls to say the fans have always had the power.

Rah Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 That was the point of the whole business. "Go get over !". It makes you wonder when "get over!" became "get over it!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
