They were different and had a storytelling theme, not a gimmicky theme. Teams having to work together to Survive, or individuals battling through multiple matches on one night. That along with the Royal Rumble was all I ever needed. Add occasional gimmick matches (that suit storylines/feuds) at Mania and Summerslam and we're all set.Battle Kat Litternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-8552112406626143132015-06-17T15:18:37.172-06:002015-06-17T15:18:37.172-06:00WWE doesn't need more gimmick matches, it just...WWE doesn't need more gimmick matches, it just needs to use the ones they have properly, as in not doing them just because it's that time of year.

Like, feuds only go to ladder war when genuine hatred has been established and it's not just a climb to grab the title, it's both guys trying to kill each other. It's not the gimmick that's the draw so much as the bitter hatred leading to the gimmick. <br /><br />Ambrose v Rollins should be like Cole v Briscoe, two guys who you believe hate each other enough they want to kill each other by any means necessary. Instead, it's, "um, you have my belt, so, uh, ladder match sound good to you?"Kenny_Reignsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-78385929395185759632015-06-17T10:29:48.330-06:002015-06-17T10:29:48.330-06:00Hey, you know, it's been 15 years or more sinc...Hey, you know, it's been 15 years or more since we had Judy Bagwell on a Pole!

They could do a tournament with 10, 15, or 20 minute Iron Man Matches to try to create the drama from most sports where the clock is running down and you're trying to win or lose. OR they could just do a three hour Randy Orton vs Kane match.Larry Huber Jrnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-12635599618174004312015-06-17T08:32:21.246-06:002015-06-17T08:32:21.246-06:00I always enjoy beat the clock.
