    I actually think it'd be a welcome change. They don't slow burn anything anymore and by the time we see a 1v1 on PPV, they've already wrestled like 5x in different variations of matches. Like if they keep Reigns as a top guy and have him feud with Cena, it'd have great potential if they built it up over like 6 months and never faced each other in any kind of match prior.

      They could definitely do a long build up, Hogan was doing plenty of other stuff during the build, like feuding with Savage, Piper, Luger, so it's not like it was entirely Hogan and Sting during the build up.


      So I checked out the Los Guerreros vignettes in the collection that was just added, they were something else.

        Eddie Guerrero was the perfect Sports Entertainer, he had the comedy to make people laugh and he was a fantastic wrestler. Just watching these vignettes, Eddie and Chavo would have been perfect on Swerved.

          Hard to do that when every top guy has to wrestle every week on TV. They will gladly waste potentially fascinating future matchups in throwaway matches just to fill time. It's one of the reasons no one cares about guys like Sheamus. He's already wrestled everyone on the roster 20 times on TV.

            Credit goes to the guy from Reddit that posted this but here's a list of 21 potential new shows via a survey that the WWE put out:

            Spoilered for length

            I'm interested in the All Access show, Wives of Flair, (guilty pleasure) History of WWE, the post PPV show and WWE Investigates.

              The post-PPV one sounds good, but I feel like it would just be a fluff piece.

              Investigates could be good as well, but same thing. I feel like WWE wants to gloss things over.

              Plenty of great ideas on the list, but I lack faith in any execution of them.

                I generally agree with you here but something is better than nothing. You just now the 10 part history of WWE will make everyone else look like chicken poop.

                  I haven't gotten that survey.

                  I actually haven't gotten one in a while. Maybe they didn't like some of my previous answers or something.

                    Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread

                    Here's my take on some of the shows...

                    WWE Goes Viral: Or you can bring back WWE Download hosted by Dolph Ziggler which had the very same concept!

                    WWE All Access: I know the world we live in today but why does WWE want to open everything up. Keep Kayfabe Alive!

                    WWE Roasts: I think these could be a good idea and do it with different superstars.

                    Goldberg's Garage: Living in Charlotte myself, I didn't even know he had a garage in Charlotte.

                    The Wives of Flair: This is the type of stuff we get when WWE hires stupid idiot soap opera writers. I hope this doesn't become a show.

                    Legends House Attitude: Been hoping for a new season of Legends House and an Attitude Era Themed one would be great.

                    Third Wheel: See my thoughts on Wives of Flair.

                    Totally NXT: NO! NO! NO! Leave NXT out of that Total Divas/Bella. Dear god, Triple H please hit whoever came up with this idea with a sledge hammer please... then fire that person.

                    WWE Investigates: Or just bring back WWE Confidential.

                      NXT is already a part of Total Divas though...

                          I'd be interested in all the shows that they put out on a poll for.

                                I can't even believe that they'd be willing to do a show on Ric Flair's ex wives and love life lol. That sounds like something I just need to see
