If cricket teams were WWE superstars

[ElIdolo]

India = Roman Reigns.

Highly hated by the rest of the world but has its own big fanbase and seems to be the biggest revenue generator and merchandise seller.

John Cena = Australia.

Past it but still one of the biggest fanbase and haters. Still can pull out big matches and victories here and there.

Kane = West Indies

One of the legends but no one cares about him now. Mostly used as a pawn to get future stars over now.

South Africa = Braun Strowman

Crushes weaker opponent and even beat the main eventers but choke out on major occasions.

Sri Lanka = Sheamus


Won few championships here and there but highly irrelevant now. Still a workhorse.

Bangladesh = Dolph Ziggler

Had few big moments here and there but still has not that 'one thing' to be a main eventer as yet and jobs out to main eventers.

New Zealand = Seth Rollins

One of the best talents but still usually flops and underperform in the big events apart from few big moments.

Pakistan = The Miz

Had a big moment in his career but keeps on talking about main eventing Wrestlemania 27. Seems content with IC Title (Top T20 ranking).

Afghanistan = Jason Jordan

A big star for future. Hugely talented but disliked by fans for dubious characteristics like being Kurt Angle's son (age cheats) etc.

England = Dean Ambrose

A big draw but similar to Seth Rollins. Fails to deliver in big matches and events. Talent is there as well.

Cool and interesting thread.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Pakistan is definitely Goldust. Too many players keep coming back over and over again.

 

[DanishJamil]

Pakistan is The Rock (Dwayne Johnson), The most electrifying team in cricket

 

[DeadBall]

We'd be having the drama ala Sarfaraz/Guptill episode every two minutes. Thats for sure.

 

[pakistani pride]

LOL which big moment did the Bangla team have?
Also PAK has achieved way more then just the CT win. The no 1 ranking in t20s is nice but highly irrelevant in PAK cricket history.

 

[Wasim_Waqar]

Pakistan= Big Show (my favourite). Destructive in short bursts but cannot persist with that destruction for long enough lol

 

[R3verse Swing]

If Cricket teams were WWE then you have the IPL. Scripted for entertainment!

Pakistan is probably more like Jeff Hardy or Chris Benoit, India I'd say would be Lex Luger. Bangladesh = Hornswoggle.

That's a myth you should see Big Show in his prime moving like a middleweight, was very agile for his size to the point where they had to stop him going to the top rope etc because they were afraid he would get injured lol

 

[shaz619]

Pakistan as CM Punk is another one

I watched him from 2000 onwards! He was agile but never lasted ages in the ring lol.

Jeff hardy I get but Benoit? The guy was damn consistent in the ring . Put on great matches night after night. Pakistan team is much more inconsistent no? Interesting though why lex luger?

I put Benoit because of his talent and what came of it after due to the controversy as well, Lex Luger because he's very good but does that hype always live up to the billing; am not so sure, he's a good choice because he depicts Indian cricket at its best e.g the WCW run and the not so good WWF run, when he was shoved down everyone's throats but not everyone bought the gimmick

I think WWF audiences bought Luger better than the WCW audiences ever did! Luger was huge when he came to the WWF and bodyslammed Yokozuna on television and he was getting over and Vince was hell bent on getting him over - an All American with great strength and a roided up body which Mcmahon preferred in those years. If Luger wasn't dumb enough to go around telling people that he was gonna win at mania, he'd have been a major star there.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Pakistan is John Cena. Supremely talented, having fan base mostly of annoying kiddos, jobbing in meaningless matches, but always the main draw in the big events.

India is Rey Mysterio. Crazy home fans, deliver a spinning 619 web around their opponents when on song, would be unbeatable if just had some more raw power.

People forget how over he was in WCW to the point of being one of the promotions corner stones, just ask Flair. And he achieved far more there then he ever did the WWF where they pushed him too hard and too fast, it wasn't organic and he crashed/burn but he was popular there in the short term but never broke the glass ceiling like he did in WCW.

lmao both comparisons are no where close

Well Luger was massive in WCW obviously but going over to the WWf in itself was a massive step up for Luger back then because the WWF was the no.1 promotion then. WWF only started becoming serious competition to WCW in 1996 or so. But yeah i think he had reached his peak by then and he wasn't going to get any better either way.

He joined the company in 1993, the mid 90's were hard times for the WWE so I wouldn't classify them as the no.1 company during that period. Timing was everything though, a combination of WCW self destructing and some special talents coming along ensured their demise in the end but they have an ever lasting rich history despite that.

 

[big_gamer007]

Current Pakistan ODI team is Heath slater the perennial jobber.. And as seen in royal rumble everyone comes and beat him however he has a moment of his own and eliminates a much bigger star.. Same way Pakistan team gets beaten by everyone but have their moments where they beat a bigger team..

 

[Rana]

The Indian cricket team is like Brock Lesnar whenever it plays Pakistan. They just put them through suplex city with the occasional fight back by Jobber Pakistan

According to this comparison Pakistan are John Cena

If Afghanistan is Jason Jordan then one of India or Pakistan needs to be Kurt Angle. [MENTION=46929]shaz619[/MENTION]

We have an ever better scenario that applies:

Afghan: Dominik Mysterio

Pak: Eddie Guerrero

India: Rey
