  Wrath of Tito FLASHBACK: Should the WWE wrestlers form a union?
WWE discourages wrestlers from having webpages, for Matt Hardy was even fired for comments made on a webpage.
WWE wrestlers can argue that since they are putting their bodies on the line, they should get a larger chunk of the overall profits.
Wrestlers would now, as a whole, be able to threaten strikes against Vince McMahon and company if they didn't increase their salaries, include benefits, or give them a larger chunk on royalty/event payments.

  WWE Cruiserweight Championship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The WWE Cruiserweight Championship is a professional wrestling title, challenged by cruiserweights under 220 lb (100 kg).
The only wrestlers to hold the Cruiserweight Championship in both its WCW and WWE incarnations are Tajiri, Billy Kidman, Gregory Helms, Rey Mysterio, Juventud, and Chavo Guerrero.
Guerrero won the WWE Championship, Mysterio won the World Heavyweight Championship, and Jericho won both the WWE Championship and the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, whom later (in a unificacion title match at WWE Vengeance) became the WWE Undisputed Championship.

 WWE Survivor Series for Game Boy Advance Review - Game Boy Advance WWE Survivor Series Review
Well, WWE Survivor Series is here, and, to be blunt, it's just a rehash of the last game but with a new cast, a revamped story mode, and a few slight gameplay changes.
WWE Survivor Series has to get by solely on the strength of its stock roster, which, to its credit, does include 16 of the WWE's hottest stars.
WWE Survivor Series will hold the interest of a devoted WWE fan for a few days, but it doesn't have a wide enough assortment of wrestlers or moves to keep the attention of anyone else for very long.

WWE Raw includes a selection of wrestlers from long before the company formerly known as the WWF had to change its name, and as such, you won't see some of the more exciting wrestlers like Rob Van Dam, Booker T, The Hurricane, Brock Lesnar, or even Hulk Hogan here.
The triple threat match pits three wrestlers against each other, but you only need to pin one other wrestler to win the match, which can be quite difficult to do since both computer-controlled and human-controlled players will continually knock you out of the pin.
The wrestlers are detailed and retain all of their unique visual characteristics, such as tattoos and gestures like The Rock's "people's eyebrow." Most of the entrances are pretty well done and mimic what the wrestlers do on TV quite well.

 TBLWrestling.com: The Best In Wrestling Since 1996!
WWE’s insistence on hard work, faltering morale among wrestlers, and diminishing opportunities to succeed in a contracting business have all contributed to the changes, but wrestlers have also had the growing opportunity to pursue endeavors outside of wrestling.
Years ago, when WWE lowered a downside guarantee, it was accepted widely and without significant protest, but now wrestlers are willing to speak up against ideas that they do not like, and, in extreme cases, leave the company when they aren’t offered what they want.
But wrestlers are paid less for their contribution to wrestling as other athletes are paid for their contribution to the respective sports they play, according to a comparative study of WWE’s fiscal reports and other sports franchises done by the Wrestling Observer earlier this year.

 ABC News: Wrestlers Bring Yuletide Cheer to 'Forgotten' War
Recently, WWE Superstars traveled to Afghanistan to visit the troops and put on a special show for them called "Tribute to the Troops." The show was taped for "WWE RAW" and will air on the USA Network on Dec. 19.
WWE started taping holiday wrestling shows after former WWE champion John "Bradshaw" Layfield" — who has been a regular visitor to military bases in both the United States and abroad — noticed that many of the troops decorated their tents and rooms with wrestling posters.
WWE producers give members of the military an opportunity to send Christmas and holiday messages with their family and friends.

 Next: we pick the 10 WWE wrestlers primed for stardom Wrestling Digest - Find Articles
WWE tried to establish Cena as a new star as soon as he got there last year--in his first televised match he nearly beat Kurt Angle, and he scored a pinfall over Chris Jericho on the Vengeance pay-per-view.
However, WWE did not create much of a character for Cena, his charisma suddenly seemed to be in remission, and his push was abruptly aborted.
If WWE just tweaked the character a bit by making Matt more of a threat and less of a joke, he could be one of the federation's top heels.

 videos of wwe wrestlers in afghanistan - Sean Hannity Discussion
The WWE got rid of their 'jihadi bad guy' because of a storyline that played out on the day of the first London bombings this past summer on their show, Smackdown, which is recorded on Tuesday nights, but (at the time) aired on television on Thursday nights.
They lambasted the WWE and opted to cut off sponsorship for the show unless the storyline was stopped and the wrestler was gotten rid of, like it was actually HIS idea to do the storyline to begin with.
It's also sad because this wrestler was often recieving death threats while on the road, touring from venue to venue because of his on-air storylines.

 WWE: a Wall Street champ or a stock for suckers? - May. 20, 2005
WWE (Research) has practically no debt, a big pile of cash, a stranglehold on a niche market and an annual dividend yield of about 4.5 percent.
WWE said last month that the show will return this October to the USA cable network, where it was much more popular than it's been since moving to Spike TV in September 2000.
What the WWE really needs is a big new star to reel in viewers and spark a trickle-down effect.

If they were to lessen the amount of WWE wrestlers in the matches, I honestly don't know if I would buy the event.
Thus far, WWE has not given any proof that this version of ECW will be anything more than a nostalgia trip centering around former ECW stars that passed their prime years ago.
But let's keep in mind that many of these past ECW wrestlers were not known for their wrestling abilities, but for their personas that Heyman unleashed.
