Since the making of main eventers like John Cena and Randy Orton, you'd think that the WWE would have made some more main event superstars. But in 2008 there are still those old veterans that support the main event card because there arent any other main event calibur superstars on the WWE roster.
The product isnt refreshing anymore, many things are predictable and most fans have grown tired of the ''same old shit''.
Now think about it. What is the cause of that, what is the cause of the slow progress of young main eventers the lack of good feuds , storylines and good wrestling? Who is responsible for the situation of the WWE right now, who is responsible for the lack of a refreshing product?
Here are some of my thoughts.
1:The creative team.
Yes i've said it, the cliché term that is used by almost any IWF, the creative team. They are the bookers of the biggest wrestling company in the world and yet they think they offer us the best product there is, these people have obviously lost their magic.
These are the people that are suposed to make and break young superstars. But in recent years we have only seen broken or above avarage young superstars. What is the cause of that?
I think its because they dont want to take anymore risks. And that they have run out of idea's. They want to play it safe and let things go slowly. While the WWE makes a good profit, the product just isnt the entertaining powerhouse it once was. And the creative team are partialy to blame.
2:The wrestlers.
I think that the wrestlers of today lack in effort and passion. Even though they are given gimmicks, which they need to perform at their best despite booked good or bad most of them dont make it. The wrestlers are the ones who are suposed to make themselves go over with the crowd. If they can wrestle or talk they can make it big time.
But instead of improving, the young wrestlers of today rather play games and act like a bunch of frat boys. I think they need to want to learn how the business works out. These wrestlers are for a part responsible for what happens to them, most of them fail to entertain the mainstream crowd. Because of lack of overall skills. Why wont they watch a tapes of the old school wrestling and take acting classes? why wont they try to improve? Some wrestlers just dont have the passion to make it big.
3:Vince Mcmahon
And of course how could we miss him, good o'll Vince Mcmahon. He's one of the smartest and most powerfull men in the world. But he has some issues.
I think Vince still thinks that he knows whats right for us, but the fact is that he lives in the old era of wrestling and his thoughts of entertainement isnt what the mainstream crowd likes.
Everybody knows that Vince's desire is, to give us the fans the best damn wrestling product there is. But in recent years he's proven to have lost his magic.
He's come up and agreed with stupid storylines, pushed the wrong wrestlers made mistakes, and wont accept that someone else knows it better than him.
I think Paul Heyman is right and that Vince needs a wake up call. He's getting old and he doesnt really know what the young fans want anymore.
I'm not saying that all Vince does are bad things, Vince made his empire solely on his own brilliant mind and strategic knowledge. look at his accomplishments. He bought out the two biggest wrestling promotions in the world with the money he made with a fantastic product he gave us. But his influence on the wrestling world needs to end the sooner the better.
So what do you think is wrong with the evolution of wrestling, what do you think needs to happen. What kind of changes need to take place?
The product isnt refreshing anymore, many things are predictable and most fans have grown tired of the ''same old shit''.
Now think about it. What is the cause of that, what is the cause of the slow progress of young main eventers the lack of good feuds , storylines and good wrestling? Who is responsible for the situation of the WWE right now, who is responsible for the lack of a refreshing product?
