To make things interesting when you bring back your wrestler(s) that wrestler is how he is now. He doesn't go back to his prime or anything like that. So for example if you choose Hogan you are choosing Hogan as he is now. An old broke mess. Eh you could also bring back a wrestler from one promotion back to anotherif you choose.

So who would be your savior? Who would you bring back?

Age 38 has had some time off and if he came back there really isn't any reason to believe that he would not only be able to entertain but to put on some great matches as well. I don't care where he lands I just want him in a place where I can watch routinely. I mean not even TNA could mess up RVD. Then again....

Age 36. Still not old enough to be considered ancient. With his time away he should be pretty healthy still as he wouldn't be as run down as others. The Rock may not be the greatest in the Ring (still far above Cena though) and I think he would show tons of rust coming back. But The Rock is just greatness and would smack the rust off in a month like the yellow of Snitsky's teeth.

I do NOT want to see RVD in TNA... ever. There is a real easy way to screw RVD up, don't let him wrestle. TNA excels at that and I'm sure they could come up with many more ways to screw him up. It is the one consistency in TNA. If he comes back, come back to WWE and get paid, at least.

As for Rocky, this is not the same WWE that he left behind. I prefer to remember Rocky the way he was and I do NOT what Rock would be reduced to in today's WWE. Plus, making bad movies pays a lot better and takes far less of a physical toll on the body. And WWE's writing, right now, is far worse than the writing of any of Rock's movies... even Doom.

Ouch.

Otherwise, I have to agree, for the most part. As much as I love The Rock, WWE would be bound to ruin it. They done convinced of that with the way they have handled CM Punk.

Besides, looking back, and not forward, is part of the reason the WWE is in the current mess it is in.

"Die Rocky Die...Rocky Suck?See the rock never ever forgot that and gonna make sure you never ever forget either."

 

Agreed even if did bring rocky back they leave him as stale face character instead of bring him back to his heel roots

ya the rock is really the only guve id love to see have an epic comeback and yes there is the fact he could fail at it and it get ruined but look at y2j he left for good while and came back to a very different WWE and well id say hes made it work beautifully. id say he has really saved Raw just as the original save us Promos ran.

Rock could do it im sure and quite honestly the WWE needs a face that doesnt suck the proof is how badly HHH has been trying to be the face the company needs to appeal to wrestling fans cause cena and bastita just cant grab the wrestling fans that whether vince likes it or not needs to stay a float.

hell Rock being the massive Face he can be who knows maybe Cena and the likes might learn how to i dont know be charismatic a key trait in being a face. cause nobody that could sitll come back and wrestle can do it quite like the rock. id say he would get the WWE through the next 10-15 years quite nicely and hopefully the newer groups of face wrestlers might learn a thing or two about entertaining the crowd.

and if he came back i think he commands enough respect or whatever to have some say so wuite a bit of say so over his mic time and reeally as long as he has that does anything else matter as long as he can raise an eyebrown give the rock bottom and peoples elbow? if heh as that then i cant see it failing and i cant see him returning without that. not that i see him returning periood but i can hope. y2j came back and i wasnt expecting it

perhaps he could come back to save smackdown after all it is his show and kind of a permanenet reminder of his impact on wrestling an entire 2 hour weekly show and a 10 year old video game series says alot.

Kane. He may not be retired, but well...you know the story.

The ratio of wrestlers I'd like to see return and the wrestlers that I wish would go back to being awesome greatly favors the latter. Mainly for the reasons Dude listed (bad writing, ect.).

I miss The Rock a lot, but I understand that he'd rather have a job that doesn't involve him getting hit in the head with a steel chair three times a week by HHH. I personally don't think he could help much at this point, you guys down the "attitude" era a lot, but it was probably the pinnacle of writing for the company. I didn't like most of the immature stuff, but the writing was gold compared to a lot of the recent stuff. Now, they can't even keep the F-U named as it was because... it's too harmful to the children? The only two recent things that used to remind me of how good wrestling could be was Randy Orton being a heel, which his stable then ruined, and Chris Jericho, which the WWE is trying to ruin in several ways as well.

And yes, I miss the old Kane as well. He was an actual force people could legitimately fear, instead of a force people pretend to fear and then beat within 5 minutes.
