Again, you apparently didn't read my post...most people blindly cheer for whoever Vince pushes
No, I read your post just fine. Your statement was a matter of opinion. Vince doesn't brainwash people. We like whoever we like... period. Furthermore, it's Vince's job to CREATE STARS. If he creates stars, he makes more money and we become more entertained.
And I take offense to you thinking that I could possibly be associated with (who you refer to as) "sheep".
Simply explained, Vince puts people on TV and then he sees the crowd's reaction. Whether he pushes them or not is a result of their initial outing. I feel like we're having an argument about what came first, the chicken or the egg? It's the same principle. Either way, we're drifting off subject.
Fact of the matter is that the Big Show was a WCW star as "The Giant." When he came into the WWE, everytime he was pushed, he flopped.
Mark Henry, Great Khali, JBL, Jeff Hardy, Goldberg, Booker T...
Ok... let's entertain this.
Mark Henry - He was in the main event picture?? Does ECW count? I think not.
Great Khali - He was a monster when he first came in. Just like with the Big Show, he was given the ball and dropped it... BIG TIME.
Jeff Hardy - Probably the most popular character in the WWE, and it took him over 10 years to reach the WWE championship. His second (though short-lived) title reign resulted in the push of a new heel in CM Punk.
JBL - A veteran of the business. I thought like you at first, but once he was put in that position, he did a tremendous job. He was the longest reigning world champion on Smackdown, at one point. How could you say he didn't deserve it?
Goldberg - The most popular superstar in the wrestling industry next to Austin and the Rock at the end of the 1990's. He deserved to be in the main event.
Booker T - A veteran of the business. One of the most balanced workers in the industry. He deserved everything that came to him.
You're saying these stars didn't deserve a main event push?? I'll ask you again... how long have you been watching the product for? It seems like you missed a lot of history.
