Hail Posted September 2, 2019 Posted September 2, 2019 Would a modern day "Allstars" touring promotion still work today do you think? I remember attending a World Wrestling Allstars show back in the early 2000's and had a cracking time. Always thought it was a great concept. A yearly tour of UK, Europe et all with the best free agent talent from america, the rosters changing each year as people are signed/released from WWE and co. Would definitely buy a ticket if there was something similar today. But obviously we were a bit starved for wrestling here back then, the UK scene wasn't anywhere near as good as today and i often wonder if todays fan would just end up sh*tting on it as its "full of imports" etc plus i'm not sure today's fan would appreciate Stevie Ray yelling about Fruit Bootys and Jeff Jarrett vs Road Dogg in the main. If you were booking the tour for todays audience, who is out there and available, i.e. not under contract to WWE / AEW? Ryback has name value, he was so over at one point and probably would be refreshing considering he hasn't done much since leaving WWE so not overexposed. Enzo and Cas would definitely be on the list, people forget how over they were. Could bring back the guest commissioner role too - Foley, Bret Hart, Cornette et al, a legend not active in ring but would sell meet and greets. I admit its not great, probably a bad time considering WWE and AEW are hoovering up anyone of note but just a random thought i had and interested to hear what others think, who you'd pick?

King Pitcos Posted September 2, 2019 Posted September 2, 2019 It’s a completely different time in wrestling now. WWA was basically a Ghost of WCW promotion, featuring boom period stars who weren’t welcome in/available to WWE. There aren’t enough stars of that level anymore to fill an arena tour, and the market isn’t the same. In 2002, hardcore wrestling fandom wasn’t all about making sure Vince knows he’s not your real dad. People just fucking loved the wrestling and missed WCW. But WWA didn’t last, and the audience for those kind of shows died out. There was that promotion in mainland Europe that did these kind of shows and basically killed the market in every country. The Hogan vs Flair tour was ten years ago now, and it was a flop even with limited dates. Anyway, hypothetically I’d book (if they’re available): CM Punk Ryback John Morrison Bad News Barrett Alberto Del Rio (stupid idea but I’d still do it) Jack Swagger Mr Kennedy MVP Carlito Chris Masters Damien Sandow Enzo & Cass Emma Layla Hornswoggle The Great Khali The shite lads from Nexus Evan Bourne Santino

Does every other post have to reference Vince not being Dad? It is weird that you go on about it so much
