So much bad things are happening in such a short period of time. Chris Benoit is dead, 10 wrestlers (most of them high profile wrestlers) are going to be conspicuously absent, people are getting injured left and right (the majority of them main eventers and World Champions), and now they're starting to cut talent. It feels like things are crumbling from the inside. I don't think WWE will ever go out of business or anything, because they have so much money behind them, but it's shaking to see all of this happening. Not to mention their shows are terrible. With all of WWE's problems, TNA being embarassingly pathetic, and RoH not on TV, there's nowhere to turn in wrestling.

This has definitely been a huge week for the WWE, but they're not going out of business anytime soon. It's going to be tough to overcome all this, but they will.
I'm actually really excited with all this. I feel it'll be a nice change in the company for once. Because it's been the same stuff since WM23 and was getting really stale.

I know what you mean, WWE always has a way of pulling back though, and its time like this that gives some of the other talent a chance for a push, who otherwise might not have gotten one.
Its a good time for a shake up, WWE still has plenty of good talent, and theres always great free agents out there to sign

Even though it sucks that all this talent is suspended (even though they deserve it in my opinion), it's nice to have something in the wrestling industry to get excited about rather than complain about.

Yeah, I feel it but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if WWE completely fell apart by 2010.
Another reason why I've been watching a lot of classic wrestling from the 80's and 90's lately; so much better (in terms of everything, talent, shows, etc) than anything WWE is putting on nowadays.

Eh, the product has overall been substandard for years, but there are some things to look forward to now that HHH is back and HBK and Taker will be back soon.

With the way things have been going this past week, from the online drug bust to the random releases this weekend, it sure seems like everything is coming apart at the seams, so to speak. I'm more than sure they'll pull through, but they sure have fallen on some hard times.

I think they are falling apart. Honestly, wrestling has not been up to par in many years. I grew up in the 80's and loved wrestling. That was the best time for wrestling. The talent was great. Everything about it was great. I wouldn't be surprised if they go out of business. At this rate people that we would never think would do roids, is doing them. Soon enough there will be no one to watch. It's weird how we look to the past wrestlers like HBK and Taker to hold it together. The new talent is terrible except for a select few. I prefer to see Hacksaw and Slaughter on the show. I love the old timers. It brings me back.....

Eh, HBK and Taker can still hold down the fort well, but Hacksaw and Slaughter aren't in good enough shape too (and one shouldn't really expect them to be actually, Slaughter isn't even a full time wrestler). I do agree with you about the new talent. The main eventers at least do suck. The only young main eventer they have worth keeping is Orton. They're got enough talent on the undercard though. I just wish they would use them.

I view it as un nerving more than anything... Especially someone like Kennedy who went public on Fox freaking News and DECLARED that the Wellness Policy was effective and that he never used steroids... William Regal is another one who said that... I see all of this stuff happening and I'm like thinking "Whoa, what the is happening?" It's that messed up... I don't see it crumbling but is definately making me step back and think "What is going on here?"

You are the most blind TNA fan I have ever seen... you talking about the quality of TNA shows is just plain stupid because you will never say anything bad about them... Also, why in the hell do you have the URL to TNA's website? That would be like me putting WWE's website in my sig... it's stupid...
