Old guys to keep wrestling? Yay or Nay?

[Shane]

Well hey if you saw the undertaker and Roman vs Shane and drew match from extreme rules, Undertaker looked amazing. As long as they put him with younger guys it seems like he's still got quite a bit left in the tank.

that taker match with Goldberg was as much Takers fault as Goldbergs

No. Goldberg literally concussed himself. How do you even do that shit

You cant put no blame on Taker. Taker is not very good anymore and given his age im not sad. He should of bowed out at Mania after Shane match that been the perfect ending to his career.

You think it would've been good ending his career with Shane McMahon? Is that a joke

compared to ending it with the matches after he has had yes! in a perfect reality he never loses streak retires at Mania with streak but is so injured he cant get up.

I guess but ending it to Shane is wrong. He deserves a higher profile opponent.

I blame Goldberg's concussion more the anything, even those matches he wrestled last year weren't super sloppy, they were just long and boring broken down towards the end bc they were almost 30 fuckin minutes. Undertaker's biggest negative rn is just how old the dude looks lmao

 

[OMB]

would you rather see him put a great match vs. a ok foe or a high profile dud ?

He looked pretty good at extreme rules tbh

His match with Shane wasn't that good. And I'm sure with a young guy he can put on a great match to end his career.

Well, in Goldbergs defense, a concussion can take anyone out of a fight regardless of age. The difference between Taker/Goldberg and Jericho is he don't take massive couple year breaks or in the Taker's case wrestle every once in a blue moon. Likely at that age you have to accept you aren't you're 20 year old self but if they took care of themselves, and hit the Gym regularly and practiced in a ring to not lose the ability then they could have had a good match.

It was just unfortunate he had a concussion and it was hard for him to work disoriented. Not sure how many of you have ever had a concussion before, but I have. And, they are really debilitating. Even for a trained athlete. So, atleast cut Goldberg some slack on that front. I'm sure he is just as disappointed in himself for it without having people having to rag on him about it.

As for Taker. His final match should have been losing the streak to an up and coming talent that needed a good push. But, WWE and Taker obviously screwed that up.

 

[Deezy]

How did WWE and Taker screw up the streak.

Right guy was the one to end it and that person has been protected perfectly because of it?

If an audience is still going to pay to see an old man perform.....they'll keep doing it. sure never seen this kind of shit when Terry Funk was an ECW champion.

Nobody was telling Flair to retire when he was in Evolution.

 

[Petty]

I need to add you back to ignore. Not sure why I removed you.


If you can't see how they messed it up..I'm sorry.

 

[Hoss]

I think people were still being entertained by Funk and Flair at those junctures of their careers. Personally, I'm finding it very hard to be entertained by Undertaker anymore. But that's just me.
