>>12479448>He put Codezilla in a star-dotted suitThis forced Cody out of his comfort zone, that's a good thing. As William Regal says, just make it work.
>He put Knightmeister in a gay fashion model stableAs above to a degree, Knight is better as Knight but Vince tests people sometimes to see their range and professionalism, hence needing to try commit to everything and make it work. Knight did and got rewarded. Also MMM were dimes.
>>12479383Wrong, Zack Ryder unironically was worth protecting as a midcard act because of how much merch he was moving and how he spearheaded WWE's change in social media engagement and use of internet platforms, Christian was a big fish in a small pond in TNA but while not longterm WWE Champion material still proved he ought to have been more than perpetual midcard in WWE, Macho Man still had plenty to offer as a performer in the 90s when Vince moved him to commentary, he just needed to evolve beyond 80s Macho, Triple H was legitimately only ever an upper midcard/challenger of the month tier talent regardless of a couple of big pops and should never have been the main guy in 2000 or from 2002-2005, Ahmed Johnson was a fucking shitter if he was going to push a roidy black guy it should have been Ron Simmons.
Vince got a lot more right than he got wrong but he didn't get them all right.
