I think Xero nailed it completely...

With no competition, and the E being far from plundering any time in the forseeable future, there isn't a rush to change. The only reaosn we got "Attitude" was becuase, after getting their rears handed to them on a weekly basis, Vince and co had to go further and push harder than WCW was willing to. Desperate times call for depserate measures, and as of right now, WWE isn't desperate.

At times, the writing has its moments. The HBK/Jericho fued was amazing. Considering we started with Flair v Michaels, that lead to Batista/HBK fued, and eventually to a heated handfull of months of Jericho/HBK that saw the "death" of Y2J and the new, fan scolding Jericho we currently have.

Also, Orton/HHH got off to a hot start, with Orton punting Vince, beating and punting Shane, RKOing Steph, and jumping HHH. Unfortunately that angle has slowed down quick. Jericho, up until this past Monday, had arguably the best running storyline for the last month, and Taker/HBK is going strong for the past 2 weeks.

So, again, some great moments here and there, I think the writing just lacks longevity and consistency.
