What are the special things you miss from WWE? And it can be anything you feel special. When I mean anything I mean ANYTHING. Like Matches, Story-lines, Rules, Images,etc. Name anything you feel that is special you miss.

The things I miss is...(no specific order)

1.Tornado Tags: We haven't had one of those in ages.

2. Hardcore Title: Watching a Hardcore Title match was like adding something special to your Ice cream sundae.

3. NODQ & No Count Out rules in title matches: Those rules made Title Match fit the mold of "Survival of the fittest" more than the rules now.

4. Interpromotional Matches: where top Superstars from different brands face each other at WreslteMania. If they build up their talent more besides Roman, then this story-angle would be interesting to see again.

5. Different varieties of arenas: I'm pretty sure everyone feels the same about this. All the PPV'S besides WrestleMania look the same. Even Royal Rumble, Survivor Series, and Summer Slam looks the same each year. One thing we were always interested in right along with the Matches and Promos was the Arenas back in the day. But we all know we all anticipated the matches more
Those are the things I miss... Right now. What do you miss?

P.S.

6. Most of all The Streak! Vince Mc-dumbass ruined that for all of us. I would have loved to have seen Undertaker reach 25-0. But The Billionaire Jackass derailed that. At least Taker can be remember as the man with the most WreslteMania wins. As a matter of fact he has the most PPV Wins in WWE history if you look it up. It is 101 wins. My main man The Deadman

1). The more "theatrical" elements of wrestling...like the
strange supernatural stuff that the WWE only gives us
on a rare occasion now.

2). Compelling & interesting characters...I remember when
everyone was different...now everyone seems the same.

3). Shocking, out of nowhere moments...Goldberg squashing
Lesnar & Jinder winning the World title were great IMO.

4). The fan service/Cheesecake moments...Yes...I see the
women as proper athletes...but...a little bit of skin can go
a long way.

5). The hardcore title & the crazy & entertaining moments
provided by it. Seriously...those were some fun times.

I miss real tough guys like Bob Holly and Finlay. Now we have metrosexuals like Rollins.

Other things I miss...
1. Large variety of Big Guys: Back in the day WWE used to invest into a Variety Big guys: Undertaker, Kane, Mark Henry, Big Show, Vader, Yokozuna, Mabel/Visera, Khali, etc. Now there is like one and it's Braun Strowman.

&

2. Deep Interesting Novel story lines: Storylines that are worthy of a best selling Novel. Undertaker and Kane 90s, Triple H and Shawn Michaels, Rock and Stone Cold, Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart, Stone Cold and Vince McMahon, Chris Benoit vs Kurt Angle, etc. Those rivalries were not just great Storylines but they were like Legends or Tales you would pass down to your children and their children. These rivalries could last more than a year and the fans would not be tired. They always gave you a great story and a great match to back it up. Nowadays they give you rivalries that you'd be tired of after a week.

Wrestling, not that "Sports Entertainment" crap, non-bias pushes, ring psychology, promos that weren't scripted, big guys weren't bland as shit, faces that aren't bland as shit, storylines that either made sense or were told right, being a champion means something and isn't a reward, and some other things I could go into a rant about.

205 Live had one like a month or so ago.

Stories that takes them longer than 2 seconds to come up with.. there's not 1 compelling story in WWE right now and hasn't been in months.

Amen my friend. Back in the day there were storylines so good they were bigger than the company itself, now its basically an Im better than you story. No personal or interesting flavor.

Matches based after characters. No one will ever forget that The Casket and Buried Alived matches came from Taker, Inferno from Kane, Bra and Panties match by The World's Greatest Genius.

Truly there got to be some new match they can pull out of the Superstars now. If you cannot do that, then do RAW roulette again.

I miss the way WWE was back in the 1980s. My family was poor and we couldn't get cable or PPV. So I had to watch WWF Superstars every week at midnight. A few times a year, there would be a Saturday Night's Main Event and honestly that was like a PPV for me at the time.

During that time, I used to yearn for as much wrestling as I could find because there was so little available. Now there is more than I can keep up with.
