People is so worry about what's going to happen next than what's happening now. Im lucky that I was a fan during the Hogan era,New Generation era and Attitude era when fans were fans.
Look back on this year so far:
WWE: Great Royal Rumble, Great Raw matches, Great Mania, Great ppv matches,Free Iron Man Match(including the IWC favorite,Benoit and he won),Created and build new stars like Orton,Shelton,Eugene,CCC,Snitsky,etc.Eddie and Benoit was the champions.
TNA:Finally another wrestling company on CABLE TV,First exciting 3 hour ppv,even though they use a few older stars they use alot of young guys like Kazarian,Dutt,Shelley,Shane,Naturals,etc.,They had alot of their wrestlers appear on big sport shows this year. This week, we get the VIctory Road ppv,two primetime shows on FSN and of course IMPACT.
ROH: When the last time an indy company had Foley,Jushin and Steamboat on their shows. They also have a magazine(of course you can't find it in grocery stores no more because the business has lost steam). Their fanbase love to go to their shows and buy DVD's.
CZW even got their own ppvs.
With all the complaining I see everyday on the net, this year was a big year in wrestling.

The WWE, while having a good year, also dropped the ball on many things. They could have held off Orton's first title until Mania, when it would have meant something. Eugen's character could have been a lot better and even could have had him turn heel, which I still think will come. CCC is injured, once again someone is injured because of Hardcore Holly. Snitsky, I think if the push continues in the right direction, could be a top heel someday. He doesn't have the look but it seems like he might have the charisma. Yes Eddie and Benoit were champions. But look who is going to end the year as champion. That's right, Vince's son-in-law HHH. And on SD if they don't get that title off of JBL soon, I would just cancel SD. Problem is, is when they do get the title off of him, they will put it on either Taker or Angle, but regardless who it goes on, those two will fued against each other and have it culminate at Mania. Which could be interesting to see considering they both no-sell and their ego's are out of this world.
TNA: It looked as if they were really going to turn shit around. But of course Jeff Jarret (in my opinion the HHH of TNA) is running the show into the ground. If you take the title off of him, you get a load of new storylines that could spawn from it. Problem is, he now has the drunk and the injury prone bastard on his show, and of course they are on his side (storyline wise) so the title will never come off of his shoulders again.
ROH: They had that huge sex scandal with Fienstein certainly killed any momentum that company had. I don't care who is wrestling for the company, when this got out about what he had done, and what he was doing, that company got screwed over.
So in conclusion, while it looks like everyone picked up their shows, in reality, each and every organization seriously dropped the ball this year
