And since Bray's promos are unique, it makes me think most guys just take what is handed to them. Whereas all the top stars from the late 90s talk about how they would be given something, and massage it to best fit their character. Put it this way. I feel like Steve Austin had a better handle on who Stone Cold was than a guy like Cesaro does his own character.

I don't doubt that's true for a lot of the superstars who just want to show up and get a paycheck essentially.

That being said, I think there's also probably quite a few guys who do bring their own ideas to the table but everything has to get approval from Vince. Then, either Vince doesn't like their ideas and shoots them down or changes them so much that they become the shitty product that we see.

On the other hand you could also have a CM Punk scenario where you bring may be bringing him golden ideas but if you're not in the main event, he doesn't care about your story line or character development so he just shoots down your ideas. The result being, whether intentional or not, talent doesn't get to explore or have any freedom creatively to stand out or become bigger stars.

How in the blue hell, exactly, is a guy supposed to grow, develop or step up and "grab the brass ring" in that type of environment?
