- For all Wrestling Fans who say "Comparisons" & "Similarities" are stupid, well just read more it below?

- Read this article about Celebrity Similarites or Modern Era's. It has 16 sides. And people continue to say WWE Superstars are not similar to the past. How pathetic and blind are you? Everyone has similarites. Just because they may be the "Next" or "New" does not mean they can't find they're own legacys.

    Some of those make absolutely no sense and you are comparing them by looks not by character and personas.

    How is Slater the next Edge? Slater can't even lace Edge's boots. They have absolutely nothing in common other than they both have long hair.

    What the hell does Michelle McCool have in common with Trish Stratus?

    Kofi Kingston to Booker T? Why, because they are both black? One acts Jamaican and is a high

    flyer, the other is from Houston and in more of a brawler. They have nothing in common.

    McIntyre to HHH- OK this one PISSES ME OFF. McIntyre isn't 1/100 as entertaining as HHH IS.

    McIntyre looks like an enraged woman with his pony tail, is scotish and has a weird build, and is

    boring. How does that compare to Triple H? Triple H is far more entertaining.

    I personally don't think there's anything wrong with comparisons but alot of yours are based on looks

    and looks alone and those mean nothing. Who cares if Drew McIntyre LOOKS like Triple H, he isn't

    and never will be as FUN to watch as Triple H. Looking like Triple H is useless McIntyre needs to

    have HHH's charisma and mic skills to succeed, not his look.

    Just ask Darren Young, if looking like somebody made you the next that person Darren Young

    wouldn't be wrestlin on superstars he would be feuding with Cena.

    My point is it doesn't matter if a current young superstar looks like a main evener from the past if

    the young superstar has no charisma ( Drew McIntyre) they will get nowhere.

    Edit: Alberto del Rio/Eddie Guerrero? I'll compare JBL to Del Rio before I'll compare Eddie(rip) to him. And Cena is more like Hulk Hogan than the Rock.

    Out of all those the only one that truly absolutely without a doub is a true comparison is Swagger to Angle because that one is just obvious. They had almost identical wrestling attire when Swagger won the world title, they have the same gimmick gold medalist/all american American, both do the ankle lock, both do the angle/Sr. Invitational challenge. This one is just obvious.

    Source(s): Comparisons and similarities aren't stupid themselves, it's what you make of them that's stupid. Just because Heath Slater "looks" like Edge (he doesn't IMO) doesn't mean he'll BE the next Edge.

    Yes, for one we witness michael getting bashed enough and don't want to inflict it on everyone else. If i see an overly repeated Jonas brothers question I don't say "eww they suck." It's just when the same questions are flooded atleast 10-15 times a day i suggest they search first before asking, since there are several pages of answers. Plus you can't really be an MJ fan without taking some patience to learn about him because people try and bash us and we also want to know the truth. Any"hater" of any celebrity or person in general usually just say things they hear from tabloids/rumours or things they /want/ to hear, instead of actually finding something out. And yes since Michael is such a great person and kind and giving, he influences us! Some of his videos are so strong, like in Earth Song when there was a kids arm reaching for a tree and it pulled away as a chainsaw quickly bolted in front of it to cut down the tree. I always remember that scene...

    I'm not sure who said "comparisions and similarities are stupid", cause wrestling is all about comparisions, opinions, and debating. It really seems like you just came off the top of your head with that. LOL.

    There are certain comparisions that are pretty laughable and baffling, like Slater, McCool, Del Rio, Gabriel, and Tatsu. Those comparisons seem fully based on race/nationality and gender. Rio is nothing like Eddie other than being Mexican. McCool is nothing like Trish other than being blond, white, and female, Tatsu is the token Asian like Tajiri was, and....Slater sucks way to much to at all be like Edge, and what exactly is the Gabriel/Hardy thing? Emo? LOL!

    I see all these but three these are:

    Next X-Pac: Tyler Black

    Next Stratus: McCool

    Next Edge: Slater

  • Who the hell keeps comparing Cena to Rock? Cena is Hogan. Come on, people.
