I'm neither arm chair booking nor am I arm chair marketting. I'm pointng out what's worked and what hasn't. Call me all the names you like, but the WWE has steadily lost ground between the attitude era and now: FACT. The UFC and MMA in general has been steadily rising in that time: FACT. The UFC exploded in popularity since signing with Spike TV: FACT. I'm not trying to say wrestling sucks, because it doesn't and fuck anyone who says so. I'm saying the WWE is digging a hole it can't get out of and some of the solutions to its problems lie in what the UFC is doing. Note that I said some. Answers and inspiration can come from strange places, so is it so hard to believe that the UFC might hold some of the solutions to WWE's problems?

I think you guys are completely over-reacting to good 'ol Crashbang and that's really all he was implying.
Correct. No more super saiyan shit. Come on. We're not asking for much here.
