I just finished watching the hall of fame and the highlight for me was something that kurt angle said during his speech. He said that fans will remember your matches but character moments lives for ever. He also said to the guys to go out and take chance with their characters.
Listening to this, I thought he had a point, there's a new trend in wwe both with the fans and wrestlers wher they concentrate too much on the moves and not enough of creating compelling characters. It's like they want the quality of the matches to make them stars now. If you look throughoit history, all the wrestlers they became legends or hall of famers we're great characters. If you takes guy like daniel bryan, cm punk, jeff hardy, shawn michaels, aj styles, all guys that are great wrestlers but until the found the characters aspect of the character, they we're just guys that could wrestles and only I small group like. As soon as they found that character moment, their career skyrocketed and became mega superstars
Again nothing against fans and the wrestlers bur it seem like a lot of the wrestlera in wwe are scared to take chance with what they are given and would rather cost on their ability and follow the script that they are given then try to stand out. Then when they get release, they bitch about how wwe didn't give them a chance, tjat they had good idea for the characters and they got turn down (ryback is the best exemple of this).
I think that's why wwe doesn't have that big mega star rigt now, because evrybody is so scares to take a chance that they go out there, do what they are told and then really on their wrestling to get over. If you ad more character momnts and less wrestling moment, wwe would probably have more main event stars right now.
