    Real competition would make both better for us. Right now they only have to compete with whether or not people will spend money.

    if they cut out sheamus doing the bullshit pandering to the crowd promos, hes a guy id really like. he tends to put on surprisingly decent and hard hitting matches, and hes a tough bastard.

    Or a better way to put it, right now we'll watch them because there's no real competition. They don't have to convince us. They only have to convince the people who may or may not watch wrestling to also watch their product.

    We don't matter so long as there isn't real competition.

    I'd argue it is a problem, their stock price has plummeted, they've had to cut guys, they got pennies on the dollar for what they bragged was possible with the tv contract, they haven't gotten the membership numbers they need to make the network run. I'd argue its a bigger problem than what WWE thinks it is.

    Cena is the giant pink elephant in the room, until they figure that out, there is a real ceiling in how high they can really go because their earning potential is limited in the adult male demographic. Which regardless of what WWE says is still their biggest demographic.

    They need to turn in their man cards at the exit when they leave.

    The funny thing is, I actually wouldn't mind Cena as champion if they just booked him as a heel.

    He makes more sense than Randy Orton as the Authority's poster child for "best for business" champ.

    F' Michael Cole it is an insult to Flair, Dusty, Savage, Rock, Hogan, Taker, Austin, Bruno, and many others that that jorts wearing clown is mentioned in the same breath as G.o.A.T. talk.
