2) End the roster split. This creates more feuds/less injury problems and a whole loads of other positives come with it.

3) Pay attention to midcard feuds more.

4) Let Wrestlers have some more control over their characters.

5) Stop shoving wrestlers who get booed out of the building down our throats as the top face of the company,

6) Make ECW extreme again.

7) Concentrate more on the show itsself rather than making money elsewhere.

8) Use logic but also mix it in with something unexpected/dramatic sometimes. Not just one or the other or neither which they're currently doing.

9) Give the fans a reason to watch the next show.

10) Book wrestlers how they should be booked, with some exceptions depending on how it turns out.

11) Bring the attitude feel back. Don't bullshit me about rehashing ideas being bad either, you know that's what everyone wants.

I have some more ideas i think but its late, but there you go for now.
1. How do you know that the fans will want to flock to whatever they write? They can write the best storyline since the Attitude era, but it doesn't mean it will help the buyrates or anything.

2. How would this create less injury problems? Some of these guys will end up working even more, that wouldn't really help prevent injuries.

3. In order to pay attention to them, they need to have some first.

4. Here that Hulk?

5. Or re-tool his character...

6. Then people would still bitch because not everyone from the old ECW is apart of it.

7. I don't see how outside ventures really hurt the wrestling. I mean it's not like the writers for Raw were the ones writing the script for the Marine.

8. Katie Vick was unexpected and so was Al Wilson's death. Those drew HUGE.

9. That's vague. What would that reason be?

10. So wrestlers come packaged with instructions on how to push them? I mean how do you know how someone should be booked? Do you use a Magic 8 Ball and go "Should Kane lose to Funaki tonight?" *turns the 8 Ball upside down* "Maybe...but maybe not...OKAY Double DQ"

11. So you conducted a poll among every wrestling fan who watched WWE during the Attitude era recently and they said that they want to see the exact same thing today?

Vince probably doesn't care with good reason. I just checked stock quotes. While WWE has had quite a few downs over the last few years, 2006 is actually their highest stock value since at least 2001.


If you want to predict the demise of wrestling, that's fine. But let's not forget the fact that the business will still be fine as long as people buy what he sells.

Convenient assumptions?

I think Shane will officially take over, but will be manipulated like hell by Steph and Trips.

To go with what Kane Knight is saying, In a past issue of the Observer, Metlzer mentioned that Wrestlemania 23 is set to become the highest grossing wrestling event in North America.

I reckon, much like the glory days of AJPW died with Baba, the glory of WWE will die with Vince.

Any loyalty and history the company has is tied to Vince McMahon. If his woefully unprepared daughter, selfish son-in-law or egotistical son take over, WWE will find itself on a slippery slope. His best bet would be to leave ownership to those three, on the condition that ultimate power is held by the booker (Jim Cornette, Jim Ross, anyone else!)
