If wrestling smarks had their way, we would be watching rehased material from the attitude era. At least with Hollywood writers, wrestling storylines are brought about in a different light.

I do agree that the angles are often times horribly executed, but combining wrestling with Hollwood-esque drama isn't easy...like pimpin.
Actually, I'm pretty sure most internet smarks want to see a change. It is the WWE that has been trying to keep the Attitude era alive since April 1, 2001, where it died with The Rock and Austin (in my opinion, anyway).

Most people will tell you that the Eddie/Rey feud is a great one, that has turned slightly sour due to the introduction of Dominic. I disagree. Dominic's par of the story makes perfect sense. But what is an absolutely horrendous idea is the "Custody Papers Ladder Match" they are rumoured to be having. Anyone could tell you that, but the writing team seems to think it is a great idea. If you want to have a Ladder Match, make it for a title shot, or maybe have the match be "unsactioned", with both guys being released from their contracts prior to the match, with a contract being suspended above the ring. The winner gets the contract, and the loser is left with nothing.

The current WWE creative team have made a great feud about two men's professional careers ruining their personal lives, into a a feud about a child's personal life. Dominic makes a great enhancement to the story, but from Eddie and Rey people want to see a professional story, perhaps enhanced by personal issues. Moving the feud away from this could ruin the final act of it.

Any wrestling fan can tell you wrestling storylines are what we want to see, not soap opera rejected cliches. If the WWE hired SOME people from the internet, you wouldn't end up with a rehashed product, and you'd probably hit the intended mark with most feuds.
