Well that's because back in the day if you failed you could go somewhere else. Not the case anymore. In that time promoters just basically threw a mic in a guys face and said "talk", so they actually learned. I truly don't think because of how things are set up that you're ever going to have a roster with depth again.

With Japan dead and the indys being a joke, it will be hard. WWE should let all these guys cut promos at house shows and on SmackDown! where it can be edited out. Sin Cara kinda got fucked over when they just threw him out on RAW without any time to settle into the WWE style. I need to find the Legends Roundtable they did where they talk about all this. JR goes on a rant about "What's a push?!".

House shows would be perfect. If I were creative, I'd let the guys go out there and ad-lib promos in front of the crowd. Sin Cara is fucked from the beginning because he can't speak english. Rey wouldn't have gotten to where he is if he didn't. Sin Cara also didn't really have anybody aside from low level guys that could even wrestle his style

No different than the territory days. Ric Flair probably cut a shitload of promos in front of 100s of people in shitholes before he learned how to cut an awesome promo and got to cut a promo in The Omni at Starrcade.

He also had to cut a bunch of promos on camera for each city he was travelling to. He also had the benefit of being surrounded by a bunch of wrestlers who had been around for ages and could cut promos. Also, people got into the business because they loved it and would live off nothing for years and couldn't afford to take a second job as opposed to today.
