Goldberg’s Return on Raw Highlights WWE’s Legends Problem

New DVD release, , , ,
After John Cena, WWE stopped producing stars. That hurts a star-driven business like pro wrestling. For the last 80 years, the industry was built around a top star. Lou Thesz carried the torch in the late-’40s and into the ’50s. Bruno Sammartino was a top-drawing star in the ’60s and well into the ’70s.
