It really is a mixture of just about everything mentioned here. The babyface failures and the lack of long term plans are because of instability and impatience with the writers. You can tell that the people coming up with ideas backstage aren't really agreeing with each other, which is why storylines have been shifting into crap mode out of nowhere. This can be easily fixed with the forcing of focus due to the uprising of a rivaling federation, which brings me to Rammsteinmad's contributing theory. If people are not given alternatives to follow that can be found in another federation as where cannot be found in the WWE, then simply put, nobody gives a shit about wrestling. Sometimes, it may just take another fed to be more popular than WWE for WWE to capitolize on bringing wrestling fans created by the other fed to theirs. To murder the other federation is suicide, and we have seen that after WCW and ECW's death. The end of the Alliance era is when the decline in popularity for wrestling began, because it brought closure to the Monday Night Wars. TNA is WWE's only hope at the moment, unless some other promotion suddenly gets their ass on tv soon.
