They have had success in recent years with mini feuds, between a main eventer and mid carder that made that person overnight (sadly none of them really kept the steam going.) I miss these.
Hurricane Vs Rock
Eugene vs HHH
HHH vs Shelton Benjamin
Orton vs Cody Rhodes
I agree with the generic statement. Now, everyone is a wrestler with a different nickname. Back then everyone was a character. They really need to work to separate people.
That is why I really like Duece and Domino....they stand out. They may be kind of a lame gimmick, but they are their own thing.
My friends at work rarely watch wrestling, but they get more into the "greaser tag team" and the "Italian that messes up English" than just another guy in tights, regardless of who his daddy is.
Too Cool, kaientai, The Brood etc didn't get over because they were good in the ring or on the mic, they did it because they were unique.
