Like I said, I believe it's because he just isn't trying as hard right now. It goes back to the argument about the WWE needing competition. There is no competition right now (apart from TNA, but they are on a different day plus don't even have a proper TV deal) and so he doesn't need to worry, because as far as he's concerned, the WWE is the number 1 company in the business.

Even when there is no competition, I still think that if the WWE was in SERIOUS trouble, they would be able to fix things. 1 thing I don't understand is why Vince hasn't given Eric Bischoff and Paul Heyman jobs on the creative team. He likes them enough to give them a job, so why he won't let someone like Bischoff (who was the man that FORCED the WWF to revamp their product in the late 90's) help to make the company better, I have no idea. If the company was in deep trouble, I don't think Vince would be so stupid as to REFUSE to let Bischoff and Heyman help out, and let his company die, just for a stupid bit of pride. Bischoff and Heyman swollowed their pride by agreeing to work for Vince, I think it's about time Vince swollowed his. Although, that's just what I THINK should happen, and I think if in BIG TROUBLE, Vince would do it.

Why it orginally took Vince 6 years too fix things, I don't know. I'm not saying he can neccesarily do it himself, but he deffinately has the resources to make it happen. It's often argued that it was because of Eric Bischoff and Paul Heyman that Vince came up with the "attitude" era. But if those 2, in particular Bischoff, were capable of provoking the WWE into improving their product before, then I don't see why it can't happen again, especially if they are working for him and their own jobs are at risk. But again, it all goes back to if Vince is wiling to swallow his pride and let it happen, and I'd like to think that if desparate, he would.
