i think its smart to keep him off tv because the 'new undertaker' sucks and he has no place on smackdown. however, they wont be doing THE FANS any favors by limiting his exposure to house shows and ppvs. that's absurd.
remember all the hype?!? ON MARCH 14 AT WM20 THE DEAD WILL RISE AGAIN!!!!!!! seriously....what have they delivered. a five minute match at wm20 and a 30 second television spot. 
undertaker fans are the real losers here. |
Well the point would be to increase business at house shows and on PPV. Smackdown's ratings have been flat for about a year and a half now, so not having Taker on TV probably wont do much damage. However, if you treat him as a special attraction that people have to pay for, people may actually pay to see him perfrom which will put more money in the WWE's pockets.
Back in the day Hulk Hogan rarely made appearances on TV, and they used to promote him being at house shows and PPvs, as a result he seemed like a special attraction and people were willing to shell out money when they seen his name on the card.
Its not difficult to comprehend.
