I'm neat.
WWE Superstars, a show that was designed to pit Superstars from any brand has suffered. It has suffered so much that some people evn go as far as to ask if anyone does watch it. Once a T.V that aired on WGN America is now a show that appears on WWE.com, who now features the likes of wrestlers who get very little to none T.V time. So my question to the posters of Wrestlezone Forums is how would you add presitge to a show that at one point in time had close ratings to TNA. Here are just a few of my suggestions.
People who watch wrestling, want to see wrestling but also want to be entertained. And quite frankly, a quality promo at the beginning of the show adds entertainment value to the overall show. Now I know they have limited time, however a short promo somwhere within the show could help the audience understand the gimmick behind some of the wrestlers who people don't know as well. For example Brodus Clay. I turthfully don't know wheter he is a heel or a face right now, and for someone watching this is a very big problem. Let us hear from the undercard talent and let us decide who we want to like. For example, Zack Ryder a resident of Superstars finally got popularity through talking. Who says this sam success can't be duplicated?
The original psoter of Superstars features the likes of Triple H, CM Punk, Umaga, Jeff Hardy, Undertaker. If I were to make a poster for Superstars now I think it would feature the likes of Alicia Fox, Zack Ryder, Drew McIntyre, Brodus Clay. None of these people are a draw. so why should anyone go out of there way to watch this show? If they advertised someone with some draw power to be on the show then It would get a better audience causing more people to watch. Improve the quality and you get an improved audience. However, if all we ever see is the undercard then there is some problems.
Yes it is not a main show, however there is no reason why they cannot advertise a #1 contender match for Superstars. At the very least it gets people intrigued as to what happenend on the show. Or even have matches that continue feuds. I understand there may be undercard feuds, but what is the payoff of that? They do not get on pPV and so why should anyone else care? Allow a midcard title feud to take place on there and then you'll realize quality will go up. I don't think scrapping together random matches will get you a lot of viewers.
So how would you fix Superstars,and what would you do to get more viewers.
