Pre-Show Stalwart
We al know the WWE main event scene needs new faces. And they have a whole bunch of young guys who I could see being involved in it. The problem is they waste so much time not pushing them and when they DO push them they suddenly drop the ball and give up.
Take John Morrison for example, he's been in WWE since around 2003, he is a fantastic wrestler and his work on the mic is improving, but he is coming up to 30 now and I can't help but think what a waste the past 4 or 5 years have been for him because he could have been main eventing. Kofi Kingston was getting a push in late 2009 with Orton but he was never put over Orton and was just forgotten after that feud. MVP back in 2006 - 2007 was getting a push and was involved in more high profile feuds including his match against Chris Benoit at WM 23. Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes have just been used as Ortons sidekicks the past 2 years, Legacy was never used to push them as Evolution pushed Batista and Orton and therefore did nothing. There is Dolph Ziggler who I believe has so much potential is not being used at all. Carlito has been there since 2005 and has not been used for anything significant either. Shelton Benjamin, need I say more.
And when they do push guys recently they tend to rush it horribly, most recent examples are Sheamus and Jack Swagger. They need to realise giving a guy the title straight away isn't going to get him over, building him up for months is how they can do that.
My point is that most of the younger guys are 30 or over now and I feel WWE could have elevated them to main event status a while ago, but have just wasted the time doing nothing with them. Anyone with me here?
