For the record, I think their next target should be Michael Cole. Have him giving a stand up at the top of the ramp, then have the nxt rookies jump in and basically do a repeat of Outsiders/Bischoff back at the start of the nWo. Keep him off TV for a few weeks, maybe bring Striker in to replace him for a bit.

No you're not the only one. I agree with you completely.
Some folks say blood is never beneficial or necessary and I just don't get that argument. The idea of seeing your top face get busted open by a group of 8 rookies not having any impact as opposed to him just getting stretchered out by selling a few signature moves is ridiculous.
I for one see the impact that blood can have in complementing and really selling the impact of a particular worker, stable or storyline.
I'm not saying however, that you have a blood bath every week to have great wrestling or great writing, but that blood still does have an impact and can be used to make a statement. Especially if used infrequently.
