>>13869085Do you remember when they spent a year pushing Miz to the moon during the first Rock/Cena bullshit? Only to bury The Miz later on? It was a powerbomb to a career. They buried John Morrison around the same time too.
Now you might not care about The Miz, but that about when Edge retired. And Eddie, Benoit, Umaga(Ed Fatu) were dead. One or two other high end talent were gone too such as Kurt Angle and Christian.
The 2000s WWE had an outrageously stacked roster. They should have been able to build up something to keep going.
Instead, they just powerbombed one career after another. I think Sheamus is the only exception.
Thats when I tuned out of wrestling. Because every new up and comer who could potentially, or COULD AND DID work with top talent was getting buried. Not simply losing, buried. Hard. Losing any all credibility in a clear FUCK YOU. People were clamoring for fucking Dolph Ziggler at one point to be a Main Eventer.
They spent half a decade shitting on all new talent, then the stranglehold of writers and other dickweeds, Vince being the biggest one, continuously crapping on every possibility of the stars developing on their own. Only to push Roman fucking Reigns. Who is a mid card guy at best. Like nearly every other Samoan that wasn't the Rock.
I think Rikishi was better on the mic than him.
Everybody they built and let loose got shit on, everyone with genuine charisma got dumped. Its been a show made for the amusement of one old man for nearly 10 solid years now. Its a fucking puppet show, not even the muscley soap opera it used to be.
