The WZ Challenge to everyone: The Reality Era

[Maddog Lionheart]

Now I call this the reality era sort of because we are now getting to the point were things are not being hidden from us on TV in the WWE. People being fired, people behind the scenes, and even other companies being referenced. It's all starting to come out ever since the "OH HI AND MIGHTY CM PUNK SHOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I want to hear from everyone on this issues because I want to hear everyone opinion on this, newcomers and veterans. I want to get a feel for everyone's opinion on this issue because I'm tired of hearing bullshit reasons why the WWE sucks and that we NEED the Attitude Era back.

I'm going to start off with this: On a scale from 1-10 I give the WWE (right now) a 9. They are starting to make themselves seem less self centered. They are actually listening to internet a little bit more (Zack Ryder) and they doing a good job of trying to make everyone relevant. But I could never give a perfect score to anything, because that's means that there is absolutely nothing wrong with it and it should stay the way it is forever.

The gauntlet has been thrown down.

Let me truly feel what you feel......

umm not really sure how im supposed to answer this but i think its like rating the wwe on a scale of 1-10 on how the product is right now? i guess ill give it a 7 as its good but the two top title fueds right now look pretty lame and john morrison,miz and other top guys are still being lost in the shuffle plus the right now cm punk is the best thing going in the company right now and hes not even part of the 2 main fueds!

The Punk/Nash feud will be bigger then anything on Smackdown and very likely be bigger then the Cena/Del Rio feud...just my opinion but anyways...

On a scale of 1-10 I would give the WWE an 8, based on their most recent few months. For once in a very, very long time I have two feuds I actually REALLY care about. Punk/Nash and Cena/Del Rio. However with that said WWE still needs to work on a lot of things because once these feuds die down, the product very likely will go back to being a 3.

First off, WWE needs to merge the WHC and WWE championship again. The WWE having two main event titles is like if the NFL didn't have the Super Bowl and ended the season with NFC and AFC champions and that was that. WWE needs to have one top dog, one guy that can say he is the best in the business. If we are in the reality era now, no longer can we have people saying...I am the best in the world on both brands. There can only be one best in the world.

Doing this would also create instant credibility to the US and IC title, since the IC title would be the most important Smackdown brand title and US the most important Raw brand title, which will help them build stars, which is the biggest problem with the WWE. They have no way of building stars. The attitude era was so successful to a point I believe because of all the titles. You can see a wrestler build his way up through the ranks. A perfect example would be Kurt Angle. He worked his way up the WWF/E ladder. He started off as European champion, became IC and eventually WWE. This added so much to his character because we as fans saw him progress. He started off as a Lower card wrestler, then became a mid card, then became a main event star. In today's WWE, it is tough to see superstars working their way up the ladder without the proper titles at each step of the ladder.
