Yeah, well there hasn't really been a big bump in WWE for a number of years, which leads me to think, do the WWE stars of today need a pair of balls, and do things that are right for the company?
Like in the 90's we had Foley, Funk, Sabu, HBK, Rikishi (Armaggedon 2000), Jeff Hardy, Edge
Now however, all we have is Jeff and Edge
So should some of these guys need to get some guts and give us fans what we want, something that is unexpected (e.g. KOTR '98, no one in their right mind would of gueesed wat would have happened duing the HIAC)

I hate fans like yourself. You feel that wrestlers need to do crazy, insane spot-fests to be entertaining. You need guys to be thrown off of the HIAC like Mankind, or fall off the titan tron like Shane McMahon. But its never enough, is it? Fans like yourself need a bigger and better stunts/spots every time. And People wonder why wrestlers become addicted to painkillers. They need them in order to go out and perform crazy-ass bumps to meet your expectations.
No wrestlers don't need to grow a pair a set because why the hell would they risk their lives for you to get your jollies off? hell they risk their lives enough just doing stuff in the ring let alone falling from titan trons, the Cell, or staging.
And for those people saying we need these spots, not we don't. WWE needs more intelligent storylines, more intriguing angles, and more diverse matches instead of the crappy cookie cutter matches we see day-in, day-out.

You're watching the wrong company if you want big spots. Buy some CZW (though I hate them) videos if you want big spots.. Or check out IWA Mid-South. IWA is where it's at..

High Spots dont equal good workrate. If you want gymnastics and crazy stunts thats not really wrestling is it its just a stunt man/stunt woman.

I don't think he was saying big bumps all the time, just once in a while during a big match to keep things fresh. You have to admit that summerslam 07' was the worst in the 20 year history of them. That Cena Orton match was pathetic.

They just need to have TV as good as it was in 2000, but with the people that have today.

Watch some Jack Evans if you want some spots.

I do find it more entertaining when wrestlers do more high risk moves but today that's limited compared to what it was like before. For me rest holds and other moves like that get boring quickly. I guess I'm just too picky.

im pretty sure randy orton doesnt need to get some balls. Yeah but when did randy orton 'learn to take a fall off a 20 foot ladder'? Say what you want in defense of this guy, but if a big ass bump is something you think is missing. Well you're not paying to much attention or enjoying what you're watching to begin with. Sometimes the little things matter, even if without a shooting star press or 450, I couldn't honestly tell you Paul London's finisher. Sure the high risk is nice, but's a momentary nice. Wrestling can have it's share of unpredictablity. For example, Jeff Hardy vs Kennedy, Hardy just about impaling himself while going for the whisper in the wind on a Raw a few months ago. Or how about Hardy vs Nitro from last year's unforgiven ppv. Nitro hits a simple drop kick while jeff is attempting a high risk maneuver. The 2 bumps Jeff takes equal simple but damn effective. And yes I know you mentioned jeff still being around to deliver them.

Yeah because if there's one more thing WWE needs right now it's losing more superstars to injury

Spot wrestling is good occasionally, but expecting them to risk they're lives for your entertainment is crazy. Spot wrestling is extremely over-rated if you ask me. Where would Jeff or Jack Evans be without spot wrestling? Nowhere, because that is the only talent they have.

Im sorry but CZW is an absolute sorry excuse for a wrestling fed. If you want to watch people hit each other with light tubes, cut each other up with weedwackers, and other stupid spots, go rent Jackass dvds. Bash me/Praise me, CZW sucks balls, all it is is a cheap knock off ECW wannabe promotion, with rediculous over the top spot fest matches. On topic, no wrestlers dont need to grow a set of balls, they are put through enough pain everyday of the week. The stroyline writers need to grow a set, give us interesting fueds, matches, and thrown in the special ingredients of unpredictability, and excitement. Although, a big spot would be nice every once and a while (FU off the top rope was a good example).
