How would YOU fix the WWE?

Re: How would YOU fix the WWE?

They really should reduce the amount of PPV's to 6 per year. By having 12 a year, there isn't enough time to properly build each feud up, and the overexposure is killing them.

Wrestling is a cyclical business. During the boom times, 12 PPV's is fine because everyone will tune in anyways. This worked to their advantage in 1998 and 99, but now it is just oversaturation.

They also need to get rid of one of the heavyweight belts, figure out who they want to build up into their main man and let him have a really long run with the belt. The belt has changed hands way too many times, and it has really cheapened it.

IMO, the WWE operated best when they had the heavyweight belt, the IC belt, tag team and women's titles only. Maybe they could still have one other belt, but any more just dilutes the importance of having a title. Back in the day, being a champ meant something. Not anymore.

That would help them out quite a bit.

Re: How would YOU fix the WWE?

from what I gather, they're kinda setting it up so they'll have more time to set up feuds. Raw and Smackdown will have their own PPV's, and then the 4 big ones (Wrestlemania, Rumble, Survivor Series and SummerSlam, I think) are mixed with both shows. That'd give each show enough time to develop. I agree though, because just 4 shows a month isn't really enough time to develop a good feud.

First thing I would do is get rid of HHH and anyone over the age of 35. Well since that's about 3/4 of their roster there will be nothing left!

you can't get rid of HHH, he's about the only true heel they have, at main event level at least. I'm getting tired of his title reign too, but it's about time for him to drop the strap anyways
