What SHOULD WWE’s course of action be now that AEW has wild momentum? Draft? Go w/ youth? Legends?

They in a bad spot , they took too long to start building star's. Roman is the only successful one and look how long it took . They need to start giving the fans wat they want because whether they want to admit it or not CM punk return video has almost 3 million views in less than 24 hrs . The wars are back



That pop. :picard:

AEW has momentum. But until they showcase their top talent on a weekly basis then it won't matter a ton.

They'll go a week and not have someone on tv. A fan tuning in on Wednesday for that particular wrestler may not know that wrestler on Dark on YouTube.

They need better stories/writing and more consistency with theit talent

People want fresh faces in prominent roles. We don’t give a fukk about their age. We just want FRESHNESS.

Bryan was on the wrong side of 30 when he got his main event role, but he was NEW and FRESH. We’d love to see a guy like Riddle get main event placements, doesn’t matter to us if he’s 27 or 37. We’re just tried of the same shyt.

The main event of the biggest show of the year is literally Reigns vs Cena.. like dog, WE’VE SEEN THIS. GIVE US SOMETHING NEW.

I feel you on a lot of this but their last match was almost 4 years ago, Sept. 2017 and on a B level PPV, No Mercy.

At least this time they have the clear heel vs. baby face dynamic and it's on their 2nd biggest show of the year.

Could be worse. It could be a match people already saw on TNT then have to pay for again on PPV. :troll:

I don't think there's anything Vince can do to get back in the good graces of most fans. It's cynical as fukk, but as long as he has his vision and has a bunch of yes men around him, none of the glaring problems will be fixed.

You’re misinterpreting

Because there pretty much lazy look how long it took them to finally give us the Lashley push he should of got since he came back. When managements see guys and girls in certain roles its very hard for talent to get out of those roles.

Which is why so many guys and girls get screw over and never move up.

Cesaro should of been a main event as example especially when they had him with Heyman. All they had Heyman do was talk about Brock when he was with him. It was an easy feud to turn Cesaro face and move up the card but nope management didn't even think of going that route cuz they never saw him more then a midcard guy and wouldn't even give him a chance.

Bryan, Becky, Kofi all three they had to be forced into kicking and screaming.

This company just like to keep the status quo and when you do that guy and girls don't get a chance to move up or get there shine unless serious someone gets hurt or covid has to happen

Vince's inner circle right now are his pals (Prichard, Laurinaitis) and a cut throat wall street mercenary (Khan).

It's pretty obvious his only concerns with the 20 or so years he has left are to be comfortable surrounded by familiar faces, and to set the deck for the sale. He's not changing his approach at all.

He is good but in a hype man type of way.

I hope he doesn't keep wrestling in his boxers tho. :scust:



WWE needs to change his ring gear. It looks silly.



hes actually very good on the mic

Why isn't the WWE pushing this guy?

I know he is in a tag team, but why isn't he in the Intercontinental or US title picture?

But wasn't that a rejection of what WWE was trying to do? They tried to make Becky the heel and Charlotte a face and the crowd :pacspit: at the idea because it made no sense.
Yea. That undermines his point about "organic buzz." She further crossed over to the mainstream during the Rousey feud.

Hahaha

Maybe she got to 25% of the buzz this has had.
You can't even keep your argument straight. Nothing is diminished by being honest about something else.
