You mean the character that doesn't draw anymore and the man playing that character works a fucking part time schedule?

Undertaker ain't never gonna be just a normal guy in this business.

As for catching the casual viewers eye, they can't even keep their own audience. Ratings are falling, number of people at shows are falling and number of PPV buys are fallings. I'd concentrate on keeping the audience you have or the audience that used to watch before trying to get new fans. Remember there were days when they did over double the ratings they do now.

How well is a part timer expected to draw? Does ruining the uniqueness of said character make up for the fact that he doesn't draw like a a full time wrestler? Or does it simply make him into a part timer that looks and acts like every other bland, non-character on the roster? And finally, how does turning a unique person into a face in the crowd help to please the fans you already have?

Answers: Not much, No, Yes, and It probably doesn't.

Depends. Have the put the belt on him as a "part timer?" Booked him in major main event feuds (Relative to the utter ass of the current WWE, at least)?

Did you seriously just ask a bunch of questions and then answer them?
