I just don't feel that.
I think even as a wrestler myself, I'd rather be able to look back and know that I earned everything I got, whether the furthest I made it was a dark match or a World Title.
Just my one and a half cents though.

Really not just any random person. The person that wins is the winner of a competition with 100s of people in it, who they were able to prove to a group of pro wrestlers they are better than. The point obviously, is that airing a show on TV makes the WWE a lot of money. And the winner isn't guaranteed to be in the WWE, they only are awarded with a devepmental contract for one year, in which time they are given the same chance as everybody else. The fact that a guy like Maven made it to the main roster so soon just goes to show that the show is probably an effective way of picking out talented people.
At the end of the day, if the winner does not have talent, they are not gonna be on TV no matter what.
