Is being a jobber really such a bad thing?

[Dolph'sZiggler]

If you're like the other 99.9% of people within the wrestling business who get into it to become a star, build a worthwhile legacy for yourself and get rich doing it, then being a jobber sucks. You don't win matches, you don't get pushed, you don't get paid that well (WWE superstars in general don't make as much money as people think they do, especially after covering most of their traveling expenses and whatnot... Batista even told Jericho on his podcast that until he won the WHC from HHH in 2005, he was still borrowing money here and there from people just to get by), and you're pretty much the bottom of the barrel. There's a reason 'Jobber' is such a dirty and vilified word within the industry. Remember how much Owens and Cody lost their shit when the recent TE winner tweeted [HASHTAG]#TheSocialJobbers[/HASHTAG] (in references to The Social Outcasts) during Raw a couple months back?

Of course being a jobber is a necessary role to fill. So is being a plumber. That doesn't mean you want to be the one that has to do it.

What's wrong with being a plumber? What do you do that's so amazing lol

It's not a bad thing.. As long as they get a paycheck. Money is what it's about.. Everyone is in WWE for the money.

The Miz talked up how much he loved putting over the Rock on that Survivor Series, and taking a Peoples' Elbow was on his bucket list. Could you imagine if the Social Outcasts get taken down by Hogan, Austin, Rock, and Cena? That would make their lives! :yay:

Most wrestlers are grateful The Rock (and legends like that) would even get in the ring with them, only a true cunt would complain and bitch ity:

Plumbers make pretty decent pay iirc.

They can for sure. As far as jobs you can work without a degree they do really well in some cases.
