True, think that's a shame personally as he had a lot of potential, he himself could have been the first black champion to me, some of the biggest issues I have at the moment with WWE are, they blow their load too early, too little or wack build ups and storylines and they give away so much potentially great stuff with terrible build up and also the booking, they don't really protect people or gain momentum properly anyway, too much 50/50 booking so everyone just becomes another guy, no creativity or story's of note to invest in and also can't build momentum cause you'll do something then get beat, you could never make a star like Goldberg or Taker or even Bret in this era, Bret lost but it was usually in meaningful matches. Taking it back Hogan, Andre The Giant etc, Big Show if they used him properly could have been huge but they didn't protect him, if he was a monster who hardly ever lost then when he finally did lose it would have been a lot bigger, too many heel and face turns too, shyt just seems pointless and meaningless most of the time. Nearly everyone gets stale, even legit talents. It's sad. This whole wins and losses will matter rhetoric sounds a bit cliche and I hope they stop saying it so much soon and just put it in to practice but it is important, matches should have stakes/storylines to get you invested and people should be able to get momentum and runs, some people should be clearly better than others depending on talent and they should win most matches, and when they are that good talents they elevate their opponent anyway regardless of the result. People care a lot less now, before it was exciting, who won meant something, now it just all seems like the same shyt, everyone's almost equal so they all blur into eachother which isn't good. They don't really book people like big stars anymore, Brock is the only 1 somewhat protected and that's counterproductive because he's been phoning it in for ages. WWE are pathetic in so many ways right now, watching that shyt is a chore. So many flaws in what they do, it just seems insane people with so much knowledge would fukk shyt up to the extent they have. Last Mania was awful and I've struggled to watch much for a while, can't remember the last shyt I was genuinely excited for in WWE.

WWE doesn't want any wrestler bigger than the company. In Vince's eyes the WWE name is the draw.

I understand the reasoning due to Austin, Rock, Hogan, and Brock (leaving for NFL) leaving the company. Cena is probably going to eventually leave too. Which leaves us fans stuck watching 50/50 booking.

The overall structure of the shows needs to change. The WWE gives away too many PPV matches for free.

I agree about Big Show's awful booking. They are doing the same with Braun now.:francis:

That Hangman Page theme gets nastier every time I listen to it, I know ROH gotta be kicking themselves in the ass for letting dude slip away along with the whole All In support they gave.
