As opposed to the usual negative attitudes seen on these threads towards the WWE, I thought I might make a positive thread about the WWE. Now I love the WWE's current product unlike a lot of people even though there are a few things it could do to improve. However, talking about good things I wanted to suggest things that the WWE hae done recently that I have enjoyed and then wanted to see what you guys thought.
Firstly, the character development and use of talent over the past year to me has been astounding. I don't know if I'm the only one that thinks this but seeing John Cena take less of a role, Ryback & Sheamus pushed to be unstoppable beasts, Randy Orton helping talent more, the great face turn of Alberto Del Rio, the character transformation of Daniel Bryan and the better usage of Sin Cara in a tag team. And that is just to mention some of the faces. In terms of the heels, we have seen CM Punk become the only person in a long time that is truly competing with Cena as THE GUY. He has played such a huge role this year and I for one have loved every minute. We have Big Show and allthough I am not his biggest fan, you have to appreciate the consistency in the way they have booked him. We have seen Dolph Ziggler play a larger role, Antonio Cesaro & Wade Barret shoot up as top midcarders with bright futures, Mark Henry return and still be the dominating beast he was before, Jack Swagger playing a far bigger and more intriguing role in WWE programming. Not only that but we saw the fantastic trio of The Shield debut and they have beeten the biggest faces in the company. It seems like the WWE are using alot more of there talent which I believe is due to the 3 hour RAW's.
The 3 hour RAW's bored me to hell at first. I have watched Wrestling since 2004 and have studied the history since, and I struggled to make it through a RAW. However, now I hae come to appreciate everything the 3 hour RaW does. Better develops stories, gives more match time, gives new talent an opportunity and better builds to PPV's. I for one am a big fan of the 3 hour RAW's at the moment and hope to see them continue.
Bring prestige back to the Titles and more emphasis on divisions. This year we saw a huge WWE Title reign, a few long World Title reigns, long Tag Title reigns, long U.S Title reigns etc and I have loved it. It has helped make the Titles really mean something and in turn, the superstars who hold them mean something. Not only that, we finally got the tag division revival we have wanted for so long with Team Hell NO!, Sin Cara & Mysterio, Team Rhodes Scholars, The Primetime Players, The Usos & more. I have loved this.
These are just a few of the things I have loved over the past year and I can name so many more which I will but just not get into as much. I believe we have seen better quality PPV's, a huge amount of talent brought through from developmental, the rise in the Main Event TV show which is good, the rise of NXT which has become very fun to watch, the returns and usage of guys like The Rock & Brock Lesnar, the better quality of the commentary and the list goes on and on. I know a lot of people aren't going to agree with me, but compared to previous years, the WWE has done so much over the past year and a half it is ridiculous and I have loved it. I really want to know what you guys think but thanks a lot and sorry if I have bored you with that long story.
